Posted January 25, 201114 yr Hi, My girlfriend owns a DT125 2004 model. She has had the bike for a couple of years now and just recently a LED above the 60mph mark on the speedo has light up. This has never happend before. Please can someone tell me what the light is for and if it is anything that needs fixing? Thanks in advance.
January 25, 201114 yr Moderator But I dont know of any led's in a DTR speedo! are you confusing led with lamp?
January 25, 201114 yr Author thanks for the reply . It is a led light actually on the speedo dial. There are no symbols next to it. Its not one of the warning lights either e.g. neutral, oil etc. I will try and get a picture . Basically a led light inside the speedo directly above the 60mph marking on the speedo has come on. Do you think its a temperature light or a restrictor light because it is over the 60mph mark? The strange thing is is that this the first time it has come on in 3 years. thanks

January 25, 201114 yr Author Thank you very much, much appreciated. I'l make sure the water is topped up and theres no leaks and throw some coolant in there too . Thanks again
January 25, 201114 yr Moderator Ahh yes mine doesnt have that, thinking about it the water temperature sybol is a clue eh?
January 25, 201114 yr Ahh yes mine doesnt have that, thinking about it the water temperature sybol is a clue eh? I prefer the gauge type you have on yours Paul, at least you know its working when it moves, where as the LED gives no clue
April 14, 201113 yr Found it quite normal if you've de-restricted it, usually comes on, not properly just faint off and on. (It happened when i did about 70-80) I had a DT X 07, along with my mate. Both did the same thing, i don't think it's anything to worry about unless the light stays on constantly once your below 60.
