DT125R FORUM

Honestly I'd go for the new monkey bike

Bet that could embarrass a few modern sportbike riders haha, stunning machines

Yeah, cant see why dual cables should matter Handguards will help some, as will muffs. But its still an improvement without. I use mine a lot, also during cool summernights ect. I like oxford heated grips "adventure" model. Grips are larger than normal grips, but I actually like them like that. I have them on 2 bikes, 1 beeing the Dt125.

il have two :call_me:

No livelier than usual to be fair. [image: Jc33XBr.png] @Louis-James Yeah I've been working on this and have put in a lot of time on this over the last few days. But there is still lots to do.

@declan Yeah there's a build thread on here under Other Projects.

i had the same problem so used a 22mm straight copper pipe fitting then silicon hose and has not leaked since hope this helps

Cheers guys

@Mightyman Yeah but on your MX bike you are presumably thrashing the tits off it. And MX bikes as standard run quite lean.

I did both on a dtr thinking I was clever that thing would wheelie in forth

@Jens-Eskildsen ah yeah I had that problem when I originally put the engine back together, but that was corrected

No very noticeable, although my v-force v3 works very well, especially in the high revs see my 200cc conversion thread

Tbh these were my first ever proper attempts.. so they didn't turn out great. But that's where the magic of editing comes in. I was cheating by not using the front brake, and as such I kept gaining speed and couldn't hold them for very long. My advice would be just try and get as much weight over the front wheel as possible!

6mm for these carb coolant pipes.

In the end i decided to just change the piston even though there was a score down the cylinder [image: 7O0bPhI.jpg] and the head was quite worse for wear. [image: xyd5TP9.jpg] But i made the right choice for now as it only cost me a ridiculous £13.55 delivered... Can't go wrong even if it only lasts me a couple of rides! [image: Vym4TEa.png] [image: fyRiZBi.jpg] Went out for a blast earlier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TFb0p8WNiA Now just finished swapping over the foot brake for a left hand brake I never got around to fitting on my DTX. [image: xy0Lrb2.jpg] [image: dpjoRoJ.jpg] So should be ready for a bit of stunt practice tomorrow

i see this on face book and laughed but im sure there has been plenty of people do it over the years

Yeah, the bike will sit lower in the front with a smaller front-wheel, so it needs a bit more force to bring it up.

@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!

That is a funny video. Everybody must of fallen of a couple of times like that haha, I've had a couple off-road
