What are the options for replacement / upgrade / spring upgrade on a 1979 DT175 monoshock, would a shock from a similar vintage IT fit ? Thanks Mark

looking for manual in english or some maintenance info?

I bought a year 2000 TTR 600. The red one with Kickstart. I just so love that bike. Unfortunatly it was modified to SuperMotard and as attractive and good looking it might be, I want to revert it to the original wheels/rims. The seller doesn't have them. ( Probably sold'em to some1 else... ) What I need to know is... - How much would it cost ( just to have an idea ) to revert to original wheels ? - Would another bike wheels 18-21 serve my TTR ? If so, what other bikes ? - Do you know any online shops where I can find alternatives ? Thanks.

hi all new to this so any help would be much apreciated. i have a husqvarna wr125 with a yamaha dtr 125 engine in it but i cant get the bloody thing started. i am 90% sure it is not a electrical problem as the engine was running when i bought it and im getting a good spark. currently has no air filter on so was convinced had dirt in carb/jets but when i went to strip carb down noticed some berk had rounded the screws and i cant get them out any suggestions?thanks

Hello, Being a newbie to riding and the forum i just wanted to ask a few questions about this particular bike. Being a '96 TDR 125, Am I correct in saying that the engine is the same as the DT125R of the same year? Also i would like to get more UUMMPP out of the bike. i've read on other posts about various different derestriction elements, powervalve upgrade/amendments, washers tack welded in the front and rear pipes, a 'snorkel' on the air intake under the seat, changing the spark plug for a performance one and changing the rear sprocket for a DT one!!!! (No doubt i've missed things?) Will i need to do all of these things or is there a best combination…

Hello all; 1st post by new member. I've been commandered into maintaining my grandson's newly aquired YZ80. Being used to only old British road bikes I would like some info on the drive chain adjustment. With bike on it's wheels chain seems tight,no free play. Would someone please explain the correct procedure for adjustment. I'm user manual less at the moment, any ideas for downloads? Here's hoping, BoB.

This could be a good place for the select few tw200 owners to keep in touch. I recently had a problem burning out the windings on my stator. This was a costly time consuming problem as I was on a country camping trip. Luckily coming towards the end of the holiday. The bike was loaded up with my backpack and tent - so a little overweight and I was riding from Lithgow towards Bathurst running along about 100 km when the engine died. There was almost no oil in there. So check your oil levels daily as the oil cools the stator windings. This bike is great offroad on fire trails (eg around Lithgow) or on road as it can cruise along at 110 Km per hour which is the general fre…

Ok, I have an issue that is really starting to bother me. In JUNE I bought a Yamaha TW200. It is a 2005 with only 615 miles on it. The chain was pretty loose and I think I need to move the back tire back to tighten it, becuase I'm pretty sure the stress of me picking up the slack broke the master-link. Anyways, the masterlink shot off while riding and its a simple fix, but I cannot find it! I haven't been able to ride since the day I bought the bike in june because I cannot find a masterlink anywhere . There are only 2 dealerships within 100 miles of me and neither of them have it. I have looked all over the internet and nowhere has it. I am on a waiting list on twow…

Does anyone know the clutch spring calibration (mm) for a 2001 tw200. I can`t find my repair manual! thanks

Hers one for the books. I have a late 70's dt 175 where one minute it worked fine next it died. the ignition failed. checked all components from ignition to the points. Everything checked fine and still no spark . I'm not a mechanic but have enough years or experience with engines to solve my own engine problems by refering to a manual of some sort, but this one really stumps me. When the flywheel is seated properly on the crankshaft you get no spark, when you move it out away from the engine about 1/8" of an inch we get a nice healthy spark. Now a simple solution woul be to put a spacer behind the flywhee and solve the issue unfortunatly the shaft is tappere…

Hello Am new to this forum and new to bike ownership so please be gentle! I bought myself a DTR the other month, off of ebay for my sins and yes you guessed it i got a real donkey (despite taking a so called bike expert friend along to check it over)....all of the V5 and history checks out though so thats a plus. It took me a few weeks getting it back to somewhere near its best i.e. undoing the hack job they did on the power valve and cleaning the carb, rewiring the light etc etc. Have been off roading a few times and went yesterday....this is where i need your help. I LOST THE KEYS ......yes came off and lost the keys, wasn't aware they could come o…

Where is My DT250MX 1979. I bought it new from Motorcycle city in Slough? for £600. I carried on riding my Malaguti Monte when I was 17 so that i could wait for V registration to come out. Longest 2 weeks of my life. I just checked and it is currently taxed, so it's still alive! Anyone know where it is? I sold it to someone who wanted to part exchange for a Fiat 127 with Starsky and Hutch stripes down the side! Just took the cash and purchased a 1969 Escort Mk1, much better for girlfriends (if I had had one!) Went to Scotland on it when it was new, couldn't keep up with my mates XT500's. I passed my bike test on it and then went for a rusty car. Matthew.kirby@at…
