Posted November 25, 200915 yr Hi everyone Im new here. I have a cbt and am looking for a 125 motorbike to practice on. I am interested in getting a dt but the problem is that I am not sure if I am tall enough for it since I am 5'7. Can anyone shed some light about this and if I would tall enough for one.

Can anyone shed some light about this and if I would tall enough for one. my mate is a short arse too, he can ride a dt, he's 5'nothing seriously its do-able, both old skool dt and new supermoto, bear in mind once you plant your on it its gonna compress (springs - funny things) and if your buying new its ride height will drop slighty once the springs/shocks have bedded in. hope it helps
November 26, 200915 yr Author well hopefully ill be able to get a dt125 soon depending on my money situation. Want to get some practice riding a manual before I sit my das.

November 26, 200915 yr anything i should look out for when buying one? dics,spokes under the seat for wiring that has been cut and joined, and lots more. dont wot to scare you but try to take someone with a bit of know with you
November 26, 200915 yr Moderator anything i should look out for when buying one? Ha Ha, the DT125 has existed for 33years so whatever nasties can happen have. Take someone with you who knows what they are looking at and much as its tempting to buy a de-restricted bike a completely std one will be a better purchase.
December 6, 200915 yr Author Yeah, hopefully getting one soon. I might as well go for the better condition ones as I dont want any problems when riding.
