bought it for cheap and just rebuilt 4th gear. now it runs like a fine machine. the only thing is my unfamiliarity with the manual compression release and hot start. seems it's a fine line between pulling in the compression release lever too far and it not starting and letting it out too much and having too much compression to kick it over. anybody have any tips on how to best start this bike cold and also once you've been riding awhile? it's going to be a blast once i figure this out.

MK3 DT (tzr top end though!?) had it for years, most fun bike I have ever ridden but sadly its off the road. It wont start and its not mechanical because The engine was rebuilt about 500 miles before it came off the road. When it was running it would sometimes start to 8 stroke, so I guess this is related to my new problem. Most people tell me its the stater but the wiring loom is FUBAR so I cant really test this. Anyone kjnow a good wiring diagram or had any similar problems? Any help would be great.

Question: My throttle has started sticking when its cold. Often sticky in the morning when I leave for work but fine by the afternoon when its warmer and I ride home. The bike is brand new (XT250) Has this happened to anyone else? What causes this and how do I fix it? Any feedback will be appreciated

Hello Any one done any performance mods to a 2006 Yamaha xt250 I read an article somewhere where they removed the puny exhaust tip - but ours seems to be welded in - must be for compliance purposes. Anyway interested in seeing if these little bikes can be improved. M

I've got a TT600R with 17" talon hubbed wheels and a speedo drive. The speedo is not working and i suspect its because the cable is too tight and has failed. Anyone out there fitted 17" wheels and fitted a conventional spped cable to the stock speedometer? Any ideas about who could supply a lomng enugh cable with the correct fittings at each end?

Hi, Ok, so I'm 40, and this is probably a mid life crisis, but I'm gonna do CBT next month and have my heart and mind set on a Yamaha DT125RE (Black). I was gonna go for a Honda XR125, but then I saw one on the road, and they are really short. I'm 6'2", and I think the 900mm seat height on the DT would suit me fine. Anyway, I'm getting mixed messages about the premix situation... after hearing its a pain in the arse etc, I then heard that certain bikes use a pump of some sort to do the premix thing for you. Anyone know the details? What models have the pump thing? Does it work? Your thoughts. Also, I'm gonna take this opportunity to get some basic mechanic …

Hi there, apologies for making my first post a somewhat trivial request......but I'm about to start repairs on my 1992 YZ250 and I seriously need some pointers....... I bought the bike last year and had problems from the start......the bike ran great but would die after an hour or so of use........spark plug was visably badly affected by cardon damage.......new spark plug and iit was flying again, before the same happened again after an hour or so......I think I was using the right fuel/oil mix, but it might have been wrong. Anyhow - the bike has been sat for 12 months now and I finally have enough spare time to devote to getting it going again. I've got the c…
