So I got a pair of brand new continental twinduros for £130 bargain!!
The rear is 150... I know this is way oversized for a 2.15 rear rim... My dt125r with 2.15 rear rim has the exact same tyres but 140 on the rear.
I want it to look whacky since it's a show bike... Has anyone else put this size on.... I'm pretty sure people have put 160s on the standard DTR rims.
The front is 90/90

@dan28 on eBay. Just search glass inline fuel filter
I've got my headlight guard on!
Luggage rack has slight different brackets for the licence plate holder goes compared to the wr200 I've had to make some modifications and get it re powder coated.
also to fit it I've had to put a standard oil tank on it as my one got in the way

Finally welded the luggage rack to fit my bike.
Needs to be powdercoated along with my front brake disc guard bracket.
Managed to source a real 4BF seat and cleaned it up, new cover+ added seat strap mounts.
This gives a higher ride.
Always good to keep a seat spare
Genuine Yamaha red front disc guard!
