DT125R FORUM

@HOTSHOT-III yes you are right 25 mm is for the top, the bottom damper Bolt requires 62 mm, i used a new Copper washer but not loctite since Yamaha manual does not mention it

@Calum You absolute legend! Why did i not think to look on fowlers . Thankyou so much!!, been pulling my hair out all day trying to find them somewhere to no avail. Cheers

@SpookDog yeah thats what i was planning on doing to be honest running it nice and gentle at least for the first 500 miles or so and just gradually increase it. I cant imagine the change of reeds doing a noticeable difference with the mixtures so i'll just as you say keep an eye on the plug after a couple rides or so and take it from there. Looking forward to finally getting it back on road! . Its been left in the corner of the garage as i got another bike

@Calum the beauty of 2 strokes is you can take the cylinder off really quickly. I'd definitely pop the exhaust off and look up the port. You can buy and endoscope for £5 that plugs into your phone

@CalDT125 Great result - learnt something new today

@dan28 AAAHHHH good ole Wilko to the rescue. :thumbs_up_medium-light_skin_tone:

This issue I found to be a break in the wire that you ground from the cdi when derestricting the bike. went completely back to normal once I reterminated the connection. sorry for the late update on this, better late than never though haha could help someone in the future with a similar issue
