Dtr1991 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Hello just thought id post my current project witch i bought a few months back i paided 100 pound for her and it had been sat up for 3 years in somes back garden rotting away so i decided to strip and rebulid from the ground up here is a picture when i bought it so thats it he had the v5 and everything so at 100 pound a bargin it didnt run at all when i had it due to sum vandals trying to steal it everything was stiff and seesed up so first thing i tried was to get it running after half hour with messing about with the loom i got it running not that i was very nice when it did lol . limited pictures atm after stripping i had the frame powerd coated After the powerd coating the swing arm and frame cost me 90 pound for the lot well happy but at this point this is when it hit me how much wud need replacing were it was just so rusty worn out ! after all bearings changed i put it back onto its wheels at it was much easier working at this level changed gaotors for the sleaves made it look a bit more up to date and id never used them before so thought i would give them a try i changed the head set bearing from the loose to the full races alot eaier to work with than seprate bearing lol another picture of when it was back on wheels mind it wasnt all bolts tighten up just all loose together just to make sure its all fitted together nicely alot of cleaning and replacing but well worth it even at this stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyDtr08 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 As said, looking good! Is it complete now or is this the stage you are at? I'm working on a DT125R too at the moment. My eventual plan is to start from the ground up with one of the frames I have. The current one will probably be sold once I've completed it to pay for the next one. Keep up the photos and info!

Dtr1991 Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 this was when the fully rebuilt engine was fitted after all bearings piston rings plus a rebore was done the clutch side casing was changed from the older one one reason as i wanted the newer oil pump fitted rather than the older one so it came from a 2005 re and was mint all new gaskets fitted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyDtr08 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Looking fantastic. Were your panels ordered from portugal via ebay? Did you encounter any problems fitting the engine casing on the oil pump. I have an new engine with it and would quite like to fit the later casing on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
