    • Sad day I had to Sell my DT 125 R.

      Well Calum first thanks for your help while I rebuilt my 7000 mile 2002 DT 125 R.
      But sadly I am moving island and have had to sell the bike,I think i went through every emotion owning this bike as I was sold a lemon and had to do a lot of work to get her running perfect but after running her in i fell in Love with her and there is just something about a 2 stroke engine that is fantastic had a lot of yamaha's starting with a FS1E DX fizzy Reg UFW 274R (still on the road with someone) to RD 250E to a RD350LC, the person who has bought her loves bikes so she is in good hands, Bye for now and again Thanks.

    • RE: Top speed

      75 mph on 2002 DT 125 R reed switch out of clock, have to say have been a lot faster on other bikes, but 75 mph felt like 140 mph lol, that front end gets light, my Uncle once had a go in a Audi Quattro as a passenger with a top rally driver. At the end the rally driver said well sir you at least know what Adrenalin is now its Brown and runs down your Leg LOL,I know how he felt now lol.

    • RE: 2002 DT125R tops out at 60mph ?

      point taken Calum, but speed limit on island is 25 mph ( which everyone seems to ignore lol ) but the roads are twisty ,potholed have gravel on corners sometimes and are up hill or down hill never straight so riding bike hard is not easy here and do not get me started on local driving skills like stopping to chat with someone on a blind corner, but totally agree that its not a 4 stroke so needs to rev a lot more now its run in, Cheers.

    • RE: 2002 DT125R tops out at 60mph ?

      Well before doing power valve I thought I would take bike to the only straight piece of road on island 0.6 miles long (yes you read it right).
      So really revved in every gear to about 8500 rpm until changing gear and got bike up to 70 mph in 0,4 of a mile before having to hit brakes before road runs out at 0.6 of a mile ,so I was just not revving bike hard enough when I tried first time because still had my treat it gentle running in head on.
      There is no where on island to go any faster than that so I;m not going even gut the exhaust as what is the point . So going to leave bike as it is ,thanks for help.

    • 2002 DT125R tops out at 60mph ?

      This is one of those questions which gets asked a lot,but having read a thousand links (maybe not quite a thousand lol) I am still not 100% sure so where better to ask than the home of the DT 125 forum.
      So a little history of bike top end has been overhauled re-bore piston rings etc,Carburetor has a 240 jet in it, new airfilter and reed switch out of way bagged up and taped up, Exhaust is stock and not gutted but has a KMX 125 tail pipe fitted ( that;s how it came to me) . bike accelerates decently through gears and revs well upto 7000rpm in most gears but once it reaches 60 mph it just stays there 55 mph up hill. Is it the CDI or have I missed something.
