    Hello forum, I'm Markus.
    I bought my 2000 dt125r back in September last year but still not 'on the road' yet. It's currently stored at my place of work which is on the local port estate so I have ridden it a few times around the private roads inside the estate. All seems good as far as I can tell. It has no lights or clocks but they all came included in a box with the sale except for throttle and rev counter cable which I have since bought for about £6 each brand new. I guess not genuine Yamaha items but I don't suppose that would matter? Will be on the road in the next month so I'll let you all know how that goes and look forward to getting to know you all though I think over the past few months I have read almost every post on here and feel like I know you all quite well already and have learnt so much about the dtr so thought it only fair I introduce myself and say thanks for sharing your knowledge.

      Definitely worth going genuine for throttle cable.

      Aftermarket ones just stretch and snap like crazy!!

            @markus-w Ah ryt, yeah not as critical. I've had bad experiences with aftermarket clutch cables.

              @NINJA thank you and yes I will as soon as I've worked out how to from Android phone. I have read callums post on embedding images so will have a go this evening when I get home from work. It is the blue one in my profile picture.
