wildkid Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Bought my dt125x a few weeks ago, just added a few things and also fitted the rim tape today, what you lot think?
Vez Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 looks good Not sure about the yellow stripes, a bit bright for my taste. Can i suggest you post a bit about yourself in the bar section, an introduction kind of thing. It goes down very well with the regulars on here, myself included.

Moderator Airhead Posted December 18, 2010 Moderator Posted December 18, 2010 Looks good but I agree about the yellow stripes, not against stripes per'se but yellow? Long live 2 strokes wildkid whereabouts are you? What do you think about the DTX?

Long live 2 strokes wildkid whereabouts are you? What do you think about the DTX? Just wanted something to stand out, Yeh agreed about the 2 strokes, i know their high maintinance, but fuck me are they a lot more fun than 4 stroke's unless your talking 600's and 1000's, im located in south east in crawley west sussex mate. Dtx overall rating, id say its a great bike, quite a high riding position but being 6 ft 4 its perfect for me, handles like a dream, great powerband when fully derestricted like mine, kinda feels as if your guna fly off the back lol... Great handling, and my tires (avon rear- Bridgestone bt45 front) grip very well even in the wet, got'a admit that everytime i go to come home from work/college or a mates, you just love riding it mate. Edit: also forgot to add, brembo front big disc and the back disc stop the bike in a matter of seconds, great brakes overall aswell
Moderator Airhead Posted December 18, 2010 Moderator Posted December 18, 2010 Yeah for a lightweight bike that brake must be quite something. I have a DTR, not the best brakes but adequate...especially compared to DT175 drums
wildkid Posted December 18, 2010 Author Posted December 18, 2010 Yeah for a lightweight bike that brake must be quite something. I have a DTR, not the best brakes but adequate...especially compared to DT175 drums Ive never had my tires slide even in the wet, im just waiting till the weather starts getting a bit better to test it to its full potential.
