@jonne123 Spot on!

There was some concerns a while back with Wossner rods being made in China.

But I've ran a few of them and not had any dramas.

@jonne123 What about the crank pin?

@jonne123 Athena gaskets are good quality.

I wouldn't bother with the cheaper ones for the head.

@oldman Oh smart!

The big end bearing you mean?

People probably overlook that as it's not something you can easily do at home as the crank needs balancing afterwards!

Pity. The Yamaha Con Rod kids don't come with the shaft either, so if you've nackered up the eye then you'd be looking at getting another crank.

Was it salvageable do you know?

Ah yes okay. Yeah that's pretty useful.

I'm not aware of anyone who has done this.

That's interesting that the clutch basket has failed.

I really dislike Chinese stuff because of their quality.

But this looks really sweet.

Shame about the clutch basket.

@oldman how odd. Yeah the later ones didn't have that then.

Can some post a picture of it up?
I don't know what you're on about?

On the underside with the linkages? They are on my 2005 DTRE. But none on the swingarm itself

@spookdog Engineering firm round me took 16 months to clean my engine and still haven't welded my RS frame yet. Guys are mentall busy!!!

I reckon you should be able to tap the threads and lock tight without a problem. Get a nice countersunk bolt in there too by the looks of it.

Where are you getting the bushes from?

Interesting to see the clutch basket split.

I was looking at it the other day as it happens and was wondering what it looked like

@oldman No power and not set up to cope with the abuse tbh.

It's not a motocross bike. It's a road bike.

It's not designed to go over kickers.

You can do what myself and others have done, and fit USD forks on the bikes quite easily.

But it all depends on how much work you're prepared to put in.

Can try thicker oils and stiffer springs. But you are really limited by the fact it's a road bike designed to do light offroading

Can always run Windows in a Virtual Machine.

You can run Windows these days without a license.

You could also try using Wine

(Windows Is Not Emulated) is a way of running x86 Windows binaries on Unix/Linux platforms.

Where there is a will there is a way.

You need to be less harsh to your wheels.

Are these aluminium wheels? You might be better off with the DTR Rims which could be stronger being steel.

@Challenger DT250 engine?

Yeah nice setup of sumo rollers

@Stevie-Wonder I ain't seen that.
