    • Dtx Project Codename Moneypit

      Haha as title says , complete rebuild time is here. Im stripped the bike down so far counting and thinking what where and how much etc. Researching new ideas. So far Im decided to powdercoat frame , get yz usd forks and swingarm , rebore barrel + new piston and con rod , inspect the crash of bottom end(hopely only bearings) , new clutch , new full exhaust, rework the connectors and wire harness...
      Will warmly welcome new ideas and comments , 0_1489167502219_20170309_181353.jpg

    • RE: Dtx Project Codename Moneypit

      Well , today Im finished my USD forks conversion on my "moneypit DT " 😂. I've been working on it for a few weeks... firstly Im bought Ktm exc 300 forks from 2002 and same seller was selling ktm 450 forks from 2003 too so ended up eith 2 sets Im thought they are exactly same 😂 silly. Liked the 450 ones I think they are 48mm so decided to put them on. And will make everything required to direct fit on Dt the other ones 300 for sale. Measured everything 100 times and even after that the machined components wasnt 100% so I had to modify them after 😂 typical for me 😂
      Here if few pics from my garage , going to test ride and adjust them tomorrow.

    • RE: Swingarm pivot bolt stuck

      Well , forgot to update it in here , I won the fight with the bolt. Stripped the bike anyway. All the problems because swingarm bearings colapsed . After desperate 6 hr fight , Im took enginr out with swingarm on it and cut the pin with angle grinder. It was pile of rust mixed with wd40 looked like curry. Big advice to you guys , keep an eye on the swingarm pivot bolt and lube it regulary and inspect the swingarm bearings as well 😊 you dont want to experience the removal 😀

    • RE: Br9 or br8

      @Mightyman same here. The number states the temperature "level" of the plug. The colder - higher number. Im heard the colder spark is better ...

    • RE: Fatbar question

      @tdr125greg the "fat" area 28 mm is in the clamping area and it reduces to the 22 mm on the ends so you need only the conversion-risers for clamping and you can keep all the other stuff for 22mm

    • RE: Dtx Project Codename Moneypit

      Well , bike is like 95% finished. Bearings sorted from wemoto , all new shiny stainless fasteners everywhere. Tried to exchange every possible nut bolt and washer. Just waiting for new chain

      link text

      First start of the bike , changed the engine oil lines for clear ones too and they are awesome and usefull. My pump needs bled and small coolant leak from top of the head. Hopefully only carb warming screw needs the copper washer 🤔
      If you see anything on the video strange and suspicious please let me know 😊.

    • RE: Stuck seized pivot bolt

      Happened to me , not a nice experience. My bearings was rotten , seized and I've had to drill, mill and chisel it horribly , then remove the engine with swingarm out of the frame (together) then after long fight I cut it with angle grinder . All that after week of beating with sledge hammer , soaking in hot and cold oils , torch etc etc . Hopefully never again 😆

    • RE: Replacement bike bolts

      @oldman Agree with you , bought the big kit of ss bolts for my dtx and ended up with more than half unused and also few missing. I have contacted them and asked for the sizes that was missing and added half to the amount 😄 , got it up to 3 days. Now working on other project and Im happy for the spare ones 🤣
