*koop* Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Hello. I'm *koop*,I live in Yorkshire.I have a 1979 DT250MX, registered in 1980 on a W, It's white with blue stickers on the tank, I think this because the other DT250MX i have has no points(CDI) and a smaller tank, That is also on a w reg 1980, I maybe wrong on both accounts here. so any help would be great. I will try and put some photos of the bike on here if i can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*koop* Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 Hi thanks everyone so far. I live abaut 9 miles from Squires cafe, when do you have your meetings there, look forward to going to the next one. My frame is stripped and ready for painting, whats best, i want this bike to be like new when is finished that's why i bought some new old stock parts ie clocks,toolbox cover. do i have to take out the steering lock and will a new one go back in (don't have the keys) also can i get the little cove that swivels round to protect the lock. also the sticker that will be blasted off the headstock. Thanks *koop* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted November 7, 2012 Moderator Share Posted November 7, 2012 The steering lock should be the same as the ignition lock if nothing has been changed http://www.pgmyamaha...-23484-01_.html http://www.pgmyamaha...0269-04003.html Check suitability but according to part# these are suitable for DT175MX do I take it you have'nt got parts manuals?

blackhat250 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Yeh the swivel cover is a rivit, it should slide into hole [ loose] i gave mine a gentle flatten at end, and punched it in , not too tight, You"ve got the bug then , all them N.o.s. parts, cover the headstock sticker, and dont blast it off, i would paint the frame, smooth black,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
