      Hi all,

      I’m a new DT125X owner; I bought her for a reasonable price as she wasn’t running due to a lack of compression. I’ve stripped the engine and am waiting for the piston to arrive so it can be bored out.
      However, I could do with some new dome bits for the cylinder head. Does anyone know what size I need? One seller on eBay states they’re M8’s but I’m not 100% sure if that’s right?

      Thanks in advance,
      Jake

        M8 Dome IIRC. I got them from KayFast on eBay.

          @Calum Thank you, some animal who owned the bike before me has slightly rounded them and they’re going a bit crap now so I’m going to get some stainless ones👌🏼

            @SouthWalesYammy Stainless doesn't love tension. They don't like to be stretched. But the head bolts are like 11nm so don't need a lot of force.
