smoush Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 hello there and welcome!!!! good little bikes the dt's pal - im just about to wrap mine in some michelin AC10's ready for some green laining just waiting for the piss poor weather to do one ken Lol yea ano, if I didn't have these sm wheels on I'd have abit of a play on my field in the snow It's the 3rd DT I've owned but the first SM one, good fun I can't get enough of them! I wouldn't mind trying green laining tbh.
kenDAWG Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 well i wanted to try the sm wheels on mine also but i think ill get hooked on the green laining and stick to the knobblies can be my excuse to get out on a sunday.... what year dt you got? any pics? ken
blackhat250 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Welcome smoosh, these DT"s are great light quick handling eh " am liking my TS250 ,, its so managable compared to a big road bike, Ken how deep is it with you, av got 14inch , am 400feet above sea level ,,,its snowed for 2 weeks, on off, got most of my bikes restored tho ,,
kenDAWG Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 to be fair pal the snow on the roads is just slush and black ice around here but its started to snow again, was about 6inchs deep the other day though... ken

The one I have now has had the clock wire done,power valve turned open,jack up kit on the back and full dep system. Would love some wrap rounds for bars but I put my bike inside at night and its hard enough as it is Have bought boyesen reed petals which are waiting to be fitted, debating a jet change tho... Don't understand a lot about jetting tbh.
kenDAWG Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 ive got the carbon reeds in mine also fully de-restricted but the person who i bought it off de-restricted the bike and jetted her up she runs perfect (light brown on the plug) but he never removed the reed restrictor on the clocks so it wouldnt go to its full potential... i only knew about the reed in the clocks because of this forum, ive gained alot of knowledge and also done the topend with the help off YOC members... ive been toying with the athena bore kit for mine to give her a little extra help as its full of hills around here but im happy at the moment, once i get these AC10's on her ill be off getting manky and falling off ken
