That pipe has been blocked off. Picture is from my old bike

 ** 

Went and got myself a 2005 dt RE yesterday and it does not want to reach 50mph! Power valve is set up correctly and working fine. I am running it on a premix 25:1. Oil pump has been took off and the little gold pipe on the Carb manifold has been blocked off by previous owner. Does anyone know why it won't hit 50mph?

Ok thanks for the help mate. I will look at it tomorrow. Hopefully it can be fixed as there is only 1 on eBay and they asking £170 for it

That price is fine with me. Yeah it just clicks when you push the button. Battery is fully charged. How do I go about taking it off the engine. Do have have to take it off from behind the fly wheel cover.

I will have a look at the engine tomorrow for the letters. The bike was first registered here in 2005 and the first mot registered with the dvla was in 2011 and has been motd every year since. It's first mot here in 2011 shown there was only 18000 K on the clock and it's now sitting at 24000 K so bike hasn't been used that much in the last 5 years. How much do you reckon the bike is worth? I only paid £750 for it two weeks ago with full years mot. It's not 100% needs paint touched up, left indicators fixed and electric start plays up but it has kick start

Ok thanks mate. Is there anywhere online I can check the history of my bike before it was imported? Just curious as to where it came from.

Hi ninja. Cheers for the info. I won't have the v5 for a couple more weeks as previous owner has sent it off to dvla hopefully. I'm not sure if the wheels have been swapped over either. Did they not make to versions of bike? One with spoke wheels and one with mag wheels. Do you have a picture of where about it will say the letters on the engine?

Hi guys. New to this forum. Can anybody share any light on my tdr? I picked it up the other week pretty cheap and was wondering if it is the balgarda model. It's 1994 with full years mot and only done about 15000 miles. Paint work not 100% and left indicators don't work also electric start plays up. With that in mind do you know how much she's worth.
