Dual Sport, Offroad Bikes

I have a 1995 DT125R (kick start) with 2k on the clock. Dep silencer, derestricted by dealer, power valve pinned and bigger jet, standard sprockets. Very fast bike for 125cc. 80mph @ 9000rpm. Flys after 6500rpm but nothing below, so i got a servo motor etc. I have fitted the parts following DT125.net etc. Went for a test ride, power from 4500rpm but it has lost it's top end. Slows at 7000rpm onwards. Anyone had this problem or any ideas?

Hello all, I'm new to the enduro world as I have just acquired a 1978 dt 175 enduro. I know I have a long road ahead of me rebuilding the engine but as I do so I would like to be able to replace things like the seat and fenders. There's not a lot of new parts that I can find online (if any at all) and was wondering if anyone would know where I could find such items. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank You- Craig

Hi,thanks everyone for your previous help,greatly appreciated!! I was woundering if anyone knows whether or not the power valve servo can be interchanged with a wireing modification,i believe the early type have a 2 pin plug and 1 seperate bullet connector and the later type have a 4 pin plug and 1 bullet connector,,the later unit can be purchased fairly easily whereas the early unit seems to be like rocking horse droppings,as far as the wiring on the early unit i presume (seeing as only 3 wires)the connections must be ignition positive an earth and a pick up from the coil/cdi unit. Any help would be greatly recieved.....Tim

Thanks for any help

I've been looking around for a cheap off road bike that i can ride round fields etc and I came across a few copy bikes like apache etc. Are these any good? if theyre reliable enough then I'll get one as theyre a few hundred quid cheaper than genuine bikes but they still use genuine honda & yamaha engines.

has anybody else had this problem? i currently have an 05 plate dt125r and i have a nice set of brand new thor quadrants but i really cant change up gear as i cant bend it enough to flick it up! could it be that they need flexing in or something? i used to have a 02 plate dt125 and i had no problems changing with them! has anybody had this problem or can the gear selector be changed in anyway? any help welcome'd

hi i got a 1974-75-76 dt175( i thinks it's a 76 but cant tell for sure) and i had to dismantle the fork because of a leaky seal. It has been time that it is now sitting in my basement and i want to put it back togeter. Put now one piece is missing... or not! thats the point! click tis link, it's the part # 11. i only have 1 for the 2 fork. http://www.bikebandit.com/houseofmotorcycl.../m7081sch227985 the piece is exactly like the #9 but smaller, and it seems to go under #3...on this one http://www.bikebandit.com/houseofmotorcycl.../m7079sch217765 (on this schematic, the inner tube is splitted in 2... it's not supposed to be?...huh?) the piece is not the in…

There seem to be many DT125s with vastly varying performance out there. I wonder what people have had out of theirs? I cant find performance figures for a standard bike anywhere, ie 0-62mph, 1/4 mile, top speed etc. Has anyone timed their bike? I have an 05' DT125X, dealer de-restricted and it does over 85mph indicated speed (probs about 80mph real speed as I imagine the speedo will over read). I have since fitted a full DEP exhaust system and it pulls much better now, although I havent tried to top it out since fitting. I'm too scared it will go bang!! What have you had out of yours?

Hi guys, Im new here and havent had much joy with the search function. Basically my DT125r is missing the servo cables and presumably also the PV servo. The PV is locked open at the moment. Does anyone know where i can get the equipment to connect up the PV properly? Also can anyone suggest the best shop/website to get plastics and sticker kits? sorry if this is a common question! Any help will be much appreciated. Cheers, Mark

Hi, I have been trying to find about the chain rollers and tensioner on my 1987 dt125 lc. My haynes manual is not alot of use as it doesnt realy mention anything about them.The manual shows it should a tensioner,my bike has no sprung tensioner,but has two rollers.Does anyone know if the bike is ment to have a sprung tensioner(i have found the manual wrong in the past),or just the two rollers.Also are either of the rollers ment to be in permanent contact with the chain.I have just fitted new chain and sprockets and would like to get the setup correct.I have tried to find information about the subject but i havent had much luck! Thanks in advance for any replies,any help …

hi i have a 86 yamaha tt600 that runs like a bat out of h*** but if you let it idle or come down to an idle it usual stalls after you have been riding about 10-15 minits weather you ride it hard or just let it idle.the main problem is when it does stall you have to wait about 15 minits before you can start it and it starts in 1 or 2 kicks. when i pull the spark plug it is sooty,carburetor is still cold,still has very good compression,and piston is not stuck in the bore. i have been working on this for a couple weeks and every thing that i see is saying it is too rich like sooty plug after stall and black smoke at and just off idle. but every thing i read about jetting …

THANKS 4 COMMENTS IF ANY
