DTGordo Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Hi all, Thanks for a great forum. Here's a few pictures of the DT I got last year: It was advertised like this: I was able to go out and have a look as it wasn't far from home. It wouldn't start or go in gear but I figured at $250 I could strip it for parts anyway: Turns out apart from a buggered piston it was pretty good really. Spent a bit of time cleaning bits like the clutch which was rusted together and getting the water out of the transmission. It's registered now so clocking up the km's where I can. Once it's settled I'll venture a little further up into the hills I'm heading towards an MX looking type of thing unless I change my mind!......

Moderator Airhead Posted April 20, 2009 Moderator Share Posted April 20, 2009 I reckon If that had been here in the uk it would be much worse for wear unless kept indoors, just shows how much drier your climate is. Looking good enjoy riding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
