DT125R 1994 Running Project
-
So as titled really had the bike a few months not done anything to it not even start it apart from change levers and new battery this will be my daily ride when it passes its MOT this will be a slow project and ideally, I will get another alternative ride in the future
-
just showing the drops of oil looks like both 2 stroke and bottom end oil ill give it a good clean in a day or two and try locate the leak looks like its from gear shaft
needs drilling and taping although cable ties doing a great job
if i had a welder then i could of just run a bead on the back as it have nasty stretch fractures on the bend might ask a local garage -
@terry.tz they can be a bit waxy from previous head gasket failures how over is recommend a rebuild as the first thing to do then paint and as you build it back up fix and replace the little issues but a nice bike anyways you keeping it original?
-
@declan naa it not staying original well I don't no time will tell I suppose and ye I think it is the gasket tho seems a bit too smokey as for rebuild etc as much as I should do it I need it on the road asap for a few weeks then I can start tidying it up so unfortunately I don't have a choice little things are going to be first
-
@declan that will be a long time very long time if ever, to be honest, it probably always be a tinker toy if you know what I mean but then again as already stated time will tell I do have some ideas but ill keep them close for now things can change
-
-
new battery did not keep its charge
-
ye will do there is a few funny connections
-
bike was cutting out at every stop and idle screw wouldn't budge and was rounded a bit so I took it off for a clean and to loosen the idle found they have a security bolt so it only had a quick clean got the idle moving tho took some shifting like but carb wants doing again it's looking sorry for its self need to get a rebuild kit for it really seals were almost none existant -
and the bowl was over flowing to seems good now tho
