2002 dt125r rev limit??

[Darty]

Everybody has to remember that 99' onwards 3RM DT's are CDI restricted to 8,500 RPM...

So, don't expect anything like a 3 wire servo Pre 96' model.

[Calum]

@darty The DTRE's are not restricted to 8500. The DTR's may be.

[finnerz89]

@darty definitely not, my DTX goes way past that.

[Calum]

@finnerz89 Well, I wouldn't say WAY past. I think it's 10k. Because the Powervalve closes then and then it really struggles. But it's as simple as earthing the black and green wire then you get full power.

[finnerz89]

@calum I've had 12k a couple of times. Earthing that cable transformed it

[Darty]

@finnerz89 Yeah sick, the DTRs though - are different sadly.

DTRE/X use a non Restricted CDI.

2002''s are doomed to 8.5k.

[NINJA]

@darty My '03 was de-restricted and went up to 11K+ NP's.

[Darty]

@cyber-ninja Tell you what, it's said that there were some 3RM CDI's that were Unrestricted from factory for last model 2003'

I can't remember the CDI code, if you had one, that was pretty rare!

[NINJA]

@darty I can't answer that for you as I sold the bike, but if it was an un-restricted CDI then yes I was very lucky indeed!!

[Mitch_350z]

@darty could this be as simple as swapping the cdi for an unrestricted one or is this not possible??

[Calum]

My brother had a 2001 DTR and it was slow as fook.

Although once derestricted it went like stink.

Pretty sure he swapped out the CDI though.

[declan]

@calum do most still have the reed valve behind the clock or is that only for speed not revs?

[NINJA]

@declan I believe that it's a sensor which forms part of the de-restriction system. It monitor's RPM's and when a set limit is reached it retards the CDI/engine from going any higher. Hence if you unplug the sensor then in theory your engine is capable of reaching it's highest maximum RPM.

[declan]

@cyber-ninja I have no reed switch I have no grey box in front of the oil tank but my bike is a pre 99 I can't find any restrictions

[Mitch_350z]

@cyber-ninja I have moved the reed switch behind the speedo but not unplugged anything??

[Sgt Robuck 5]

@darty They are rare? I currently have a dtr 125 2002 (Registered as a 2003)

[declan]

@sgt-robuck-5 you don’t see too many of that era of dt I don’t know if there rare I’m just speaking from experience in looking to buy although you will find them usually it’s an older
Model that you will come across
