Happy New Year to you all, here's hoping 23 is somewhat better than 22. !! As I continue to renovate our house my bikes sit in the garage drained and under covers but otherwise neglected! hopefully this year all my efforts will complete my project and i can get out and about again on my bikes...here's to 23.

I am on my 3rd day! First finding one was easy FJ owners club had one in stock and is only 20 miles down the road so no prob plus a couple of gaskets and the loss of £135 quid I'm ready to go.

Hi everyone. Hope this message find you well. I am a new member here and most likely will ask a lot of the questions that have already been asked. Pre apologies... I am shipping a 1979 DT 125 from NZ to UK as we are moving home to Scotland. The bike is matching frame and numbers here in NZ. Not road registered though. It is essentially a rolling frame that needs a full restoration, but the bones of it are healthy. I love DTs, had loads as a kid.
