Hi all I've just started a complete rebuild of the first bike I every road its a 1977 250 DT I would list all that needs doing but Its easyer to say what I've got. Wheels, frame, engine missing almost every thing else. Parked it in dry storage when I moved off the farm it was going when I moved.Wife says mid life crisis is around the corner. I've seen loads of second bits mostly 175DT of similar year got my parts book can any one tell me if the 175 and 250 switches, headlights, speedo, tacho are compatable. First topic when I find out how will put some photos on but she looks very sick at the moment.

Nice bike...I just sold one.

Lots of common parts with the '77 and '78 DT400, but not so much with other bikes. Many parts are still available from Yamaha or aftermarket suppliers.

Oldgitonabike is very knowledgable about these, hopefully, for your sake, he'll chime in. Easy bike to work on, at least you can yank the motor out of the frame by yourself....
