why does my 02 plate dt125 only do 70mph?

70mph is about the top speed for a DT125. You could replace the rear sprocket with a smaller one (or the front with a larger one), that will give you a bit more top end, but you will lose some acceleration.

Maybe it's still restricted? Check out dtr125.net for info on making it faster.

My 2007 DT did 65mph when it was all stock, then I earthed a wire behind the speedo and it rocketed (literally, in terms of performance gain) up to 76mph and that's 1 of the many restrictors! Removing them all and changing sprockets can result in daft top speeds of 100mph+

Nah Merv, 62 mph, thats the sort of speed you'd be getting from a tickled up DT50, a DT125, de-restricted at the speedo, with an aftermarket exhaust, would be somewhere between 75mph and 80mph, I'll be lucky if mine gets to 85mph, and mines effectively a 135, since I've had the overbore, plus all the extra whistles and bangs mines had done to it.

The only way a DT125 is capable of doing 100mph, is in the back of an AA recovery van, and the drivers just been told his missus has gone into labour.
