    DTR 125, problems

    in Yamaha Workshop

    Posted

    Hi there

    To adjust idle rpm there should be a thumb screw turn it out anticlockwise slow until desired rpm reached!

    Speedo isn't working could be 3 things-cable snapped (most likely) speedo is broken or broken speedo drive (on front spindle) you need to get the front wheel jacked up disconnect cable by the clock end spin front wheel by hand and see if the cable inside is turning!

    As for the exhaust sounds a little strange, your saying the when its loose the bike runs better???

    Either the exhaust system is blocked/coked up or there is a restriction in the chamber still.

    Hope this helps

    Yz 125 / Dt 125 whats the differences?

    I've got my dt so its up to 60mph in no time for on the roads its a little bit scetchy with the mich ac10 tyres but on the green lanes its perfect I am currently thinking about some spare wheels with road tyres on!!

    I don't think there is ever going to be a bike that is perfect on and offroad its just something we have to admit..

    I had my dt out with a mate on his yz125 and he just left me behind blasting about but at the end of the day he was waiting for his father with trailer to pick him up but I just went on my way.

    Well to be honest carbon reeds, full after market exhaust and a professional setup of the carb is all you want.

    The dt is setup for reliability so one you start with the tuning them the reliability will suffer!!!

    There is a dt125re with yz125 engine in on eBay now £1600

    switching rear light to led/tail tidy

    hey people

    im toying with the idea of tidying up the rear end of my dt, ive changed indicators to smaller clear lense bulb indicators which has cleaned up the look of the front end but im still not happy with the rear light/plate hanger...

    anyone point me in the right direction as to what to look for? either an all in one unit or a small led light and tail tidy bracket?

    as my rear mudgaurd has the light underneith im thinking maybe i could get away with a thin led strip light hopefully with built in numberplate lights.

    the look im after is basicly to pull all the rear componants up as close to the rear mudgaurd as i can, none of this bulky plastic stuffshowing.

    if anyone has any second hamdparts ill be listening!!!

    cheers

    Yep here in Canada too,someone said "when 1/3rd of the population figuers out that the other 2/3 will support them we are all fucked" something has to change. What I don't know but feeding generations to sit on thier ass is wrong. Why do recipents get raises when the working class hasn't seen a raise in 5 or more years or working for less paying more taxes and taking home less,but expected to smile and shut up.

    I know plenty of people sittin on there arse all day and have done for years, there the neighbours that look happy you can tell who goes to work because when you see them they look shattered (like me)

    But you can't blame them when society has made it so its better having your arse wiped by the state than be punished for working hard and bringing up a family!!!

    If I come into money I'm out of this shit hole!

    Tax, immigration and pc state is the main factors, its not the fact that I think all 3 subjects should be abolished what I am trying to say they have all been exhausted to a worrying level

    I have had a 2% pay rise in 5yrs but have seen everything going up in price.

    So many things wrong.

    My girlfriend had to drop her working hours because if we put the cost of child care next to her wages we would not gain anything (she works for NHS admin) she doesn't get paid verywell don't think she makes £250pr week full time

    I earn £350pr week after tax but I'm left with £80pr week for my own use, used to be left with £200pr week to myself before the bairn was born an she had to drop her hours

    Sort out the tax

    Immigration

    Childcare

    And stop trying to wrap everyone in cotton wool you fucking retards

    It's not a dream if its doable who says once full test is passed said person likes his little dt but would like it to have a little more gallop and has access to a yz engine?

    I can get a yz engine for mine but I haven't passed my test and I'm not competent enough to do it myself.

    Sorry for the concern.

    It's just a dt pal you have to use the clutch to get the front up, won't lift like a yz....

    I've had my wheel off the ground and I've got longer gearing on mine so its less snappy off the mark and harder to wheelie-it tops out @80mph max but I don't go past 65 much!

    Sometimes things in life change and the first time consuming hobby gets put to the side!
