Hi

first of all, sorry for only creating my dtx125 post today, since this is a forum mostly about yamaha dtr/dtx bikes. Some of you may noticed, i have post's about my italian bikes, but i promised i would create one for my little dtx125, that i own since i was 17year old ( im 23).

i will not post much here, because this bike will be in standby for indeterminate time and i dont understand of mechanics to make the things on my own. i have a big big project for my RS250, and it will take all my cash available for bikes in the future.

BUT, i have a brand new box with Kit Athena 170cc in my garage, ready to be installed when i want.

here she is

about the bike:

• 2009 model
• stock engine with stainless steel exhaust by Romeu Henriques (Portugal), i have a spare one with damaged crank i guess. that one will be used for athena kit.
• leo vince silencer from yz125. (just for the looks, i love that silencer. not the best in performance)

basically, its a stock dtx. i dont plan to change much things in the bike. only on the engine

thats it, hope you like it! and sorry about my english

Hello

i will start this project slowly , no hurry's, i cant drive this beast yet, need to be 24 years old to take the licence. only in january i can have the licence.

i will post the photos of the beginning of this build, and i will explain my objectives with this bike.

First Parts will be:

• USED OEM Brembo discs x2, bought here in portugal for 120€ pretty good, insted of paying 500€ for brand new discs

• New BREMBO front master cylinder RCS19 with TWM clutch. (Same like i did on RS125, but 19 instead of 15) (~330€)

• New/Used Genuine Complete Headlight from RS125 (90-05) or RS250 since they use the same light

• New/Used complete back light with licence holder from RS125 (90-05) or RS250 since they use the same

• New Genuine Windshield (~90€) already bought on eBay.

after this basic stuff, i will buy new tyres, new exhaust ( i like loud bikes :D) Tyga or JimLomas Side by Side with carbon silencers. this cost around 1.000€

Work needed on the bike:

• New paint in Mugello Colours with stickers. ( i already have most of the stickers needed, since i bought for my rs125 some time ago, but they were very hard to fit on rs125 late models)
• Need to remove the paint insome parts (calipers, handlebars, wheels) previous owner did a bad job painting them.

for now, this are the most important things to fix for me.

If you guys know someone that have OEM parts that i need, i will aprecciate

Thanks for all your help in the previous build, in special @Calum and @NINJA

P.S. Sorry for my english, not my native language

here you have some photos, on the photos you cant see the bad paint job the previous owner did. trust me, the photos hide the fails on the paint. the brembo calipers are chinese paint lol

but the engine its fine, so i have more spac€ for other stuff needed.

i have romeu henriques pipe too on my dtx and its amazing the sound!

hi guys, hope all of you are safe!

quick update for my project

received my calipers and carbs from MHF UK, they vapour blasted and pwder coated calipers and on the carbs vapour blast and ultrasonic cleaning. they look new now imo

you can see the condition of the calipers in this topic to check the difference

Hi

Long time without parts, so i will update with big package from BlackFriday that arrived today

Brembo RCS19
Brembo Rear Disc's and brembo pads
TWM Clutch Lever
TYGA Rear Step kit with carbon cover's
Mellotti handlebars and triple clamps
Domino Throtle

i keep the same brands for this rs250 build. why change when the quality is very good

still lots of parts to buy ...

hope you like it

i was bored at home, and i said to myself that i can remove the engine of the bike and save some cash not paying to someone to do it for me.

so i did

looks very dirt inside

out of the frame already

i may be wrong but i think this engine never left the frame of the bike in 20 years

look the powevalve housing, this after a cleaning with absorvent paper. when i opened lots of burned oil leaked

piston, i dont have a clue if its very bad condition or not. what you guys think?

cylinder head, no ideia again if bad or not

what's your opinions? full rebuild since i have engine out? btw, the engine i will not touch, no skills for that.

this was the first time i worked on a bike, im proud of myself that i did it. i organized all parts and screws on zip bags to not lose anything.

hope you like it!

Hi guys

i cant buy much more parts for now, unfortunately i damaged the engine of my pitbike. and will not be cheap to repair i guess

thanks!!

a photographer asked me if he could make a session with my bike, i said yes of course. so i hope soon i will have real photos to show you guys

and i will put a tyga silencer to try to win the bike of the month competition

hi guys

last bits of carbon installed

photos are similiar to the last ones, and you cant see very well the carbon on the rear wheel, but thats the best i could do. im not good with photography i guess :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

Its sad, its my 4th month at hospital. And yes, atm im disabled. Legs dont work and not sure if they gonna work.

Hi guys,

Long time without posting news, i had an accident with my rs125 and im still at the hospital. At the moment im paraplegic, but i didnt give up yet on my legs.

Now about the status of the bike. I didnt see properly but the front of the bike is damaged. Even the dashbord is crashed, i will need more then 3k€ to fix all. Not sure what im gonna do, fix it or try to sell parts, but i spent so so much on that bike ...

Thats it, hope all of you are good. Enjoy life

finally looks so good the bike

@Louis-DT-WR i mean where the calippers mount on the fork. that black is original? it looks great thats why i asked. i may need to do the same on my rs250 forks.

woow, looking great.

your bottom forks what you used? powder coating?

on my dtx i have romeu inox pipe too. i guess here in portugal, he is the best making them for dtr/x

look at this beautiful kit, not cheap but looks very good
