I have a DT125R 2002 model (de031),I had an idiot drive in the back of me and now I need a new back wheel.Can anyone advice me if other year models will fit my bike,Ive seen one from a 97 model but not sure if this will fit.......

They are indeed all the same from 1988 to 2007 or 2008 whenever they stopped making them. If you find one on ebay get photos of any rust spots on the rim. Surface rust will easily clean off with peek or autosol and a toothbrush followed by buffing cloth. They always seem to come up very well. The bottom photo shows one side cleaned and the other as it was.

Also make sure its not corroded through on the inside of the rim under the tyre, its suprising how many rims rot through from the inside.
