Moderator DirtyDT Posted September 17, 2011 Moderator Posted September 17, 2011 I lived on Sumners farm, the posh part, apparently. Brockles Mead was just down the hill towards Kingsmoor, I seem to remember.. Worked in "the cross" and "the abbey" at different times. Did you check the bike to see why it was a Q plate? I guess stolen/recovered. Was it a pain to insure? Just keep your eyes open on evilbay for a straight frame and V5 on evilbay and transfer the bits. The DTr's are well respected in the forum and, for a lot of us, it's a stroker so that is another bonus
neilmanns Posted September 17, 2011 Author Posted September 17, 2011 it was stolen and recovered at some point and na just changed it from my magesty 125 same price but could only get 3rd party i grew up in "the abbey" lol to be honest i dont care its a Q plate still my DT lol and i love it, any idea what these do restricted ?? im gettin 60 in 5th and go into 6th an just sitts there a 60 - 65 mph ?? havent checked any thing yet, only thing changed is the main jet it has a 240, theres a massive hole in the tail pipe and the guy must of upjetted to compensate for it lol but hey ho lol
