You can also try a Delorto VHSA32 which is a 32mm carb used on the TZR 4DL which shares the same engine as the DT125R.

Only putting it out there, if it were me, I'd go for a tm28ss which is standard on DT125R from 1991 as Darty says.

The jetting changed in around 1996 as well but that will depend on the conditions of where you ride so you'll have to experiment with that.

Very nicely put together video! Just a hobby or editing a job? Was the mist nationwide then? I'm in sussex and it was Crazeeeee...

Welcome to the forum! Look forward to seeing some pics and hearing about the bike.

I've never actually looked at the setup of a non pulley version.

What's on the inner side of part 20 in the diagram. Looks like it's already fitted to the end of the end cap. Does it have a diamond shape that holds onto the end of the valve itself?

From the parts diagram it doesn't look like there is a separate pin so I would guess not. If it came apart then im sure Yamaha would have listed with it's own part number. So unless your end cap or part 20 is broken then it should all be fine. Try fit it all together and then put your finger up the barrel and try and move the valve.

@Jens-Eskildsen

Oh hell yeah now thats a nice looking bike IMO.

I much prefer it with the off road wheels. I see you have an acerbis tank for it then and you're lucky enough to have the later one (4TP is it?) so you can still get the tank and mounts.

Thats great to know that theres nothing major to worry about and yeah, I'll be religiously servicing/ greasing those suspension linkage and swing arm bearings! Thanks for the heads up. I think any bike that uses a similar set up should be sold with a grease gun as part of the tool kit!

@Jens-Eskildsen Yeah I know what you mean and I'm sure you are right. I suppose it's just an area where companys can make extra profit knowning how people feel about "more money meaning better quality".

It probably isnt any safer or less likely to have issues but it's the name and brand and the big boys on race bikes that have invested in branded companies like HEL that make us happy to pay for it.

Yeah on that offer it was 50% off all online orders. So it was £29.99 per set ( £60 for both) but then 50% off bringing the total order back down to £29.99 which was a total steal. Meant you can get HEL quality lines for less than the cost of unbranded. Now those are the deals I like!!

You seem like a very clued up guy so hope you don't feel like anyones putting you down for putting an opinion across. I personally value anyones educated opinions and experiences, i see it as the fundamentals of a progressive society, but hey lets not get too deep here, this is bikes!

@Jens-Eskildsen Have you used them before and know them to be good? A set of front and back brake lines for less than £30 from an unbranded company would worry me.

@Darty You should do it! My mate is currently trying to buy a ex round the world bike which i think is a drz400. A couple of guys rode their bikes all around the world and now its sitting about and somehow my friends found out and wants to buy it.

We we're over the other side of the new forest the other week picking up a ninja for him to break and there was the bottom end of a DRZ650 sitting on the side in the workshop. It looked crazy big! They also had maruez' moto3 race bike sitting there too but our attempt to purchase it was unsuccesful!

@Jens-Eskildsen Wow! Thanks for the reply. Sounds like you have a sturdy bike there. Where abouts are you and what model do you have?

If you have any advice or anything thats worth knowing then I'd be very appreciative to hear it. I'm still learning alot about the bike but have seen alot online about how durable they are, especially the engine.

I was following a thread on another forum of someone who had some similar kind of km on their bike and hadnt done any engine work at all!
