Kevin93 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Hi there guys, In late 2011 a friend of mine bought a Yamaha DT100 to do up with his wife, she wasn't interested and he didn't have the time to do it himself, so I managed to pick it up for a bargain £75! After getting it home, I did the standard ''Use buckets of water and mum's sponges for the dishes to get all the mud and crud off it, but also messing up the patio'' technique. After I got it clean (relatively) I decided to use the next ''take off everything you can and put it in a pile'' technique. The next thing I did, was cover it in WD-40, put it under a tarp and forget about it. It's now 2013, and after remembering I have a bike in the shed in pieces I've decided to actually restore it, which is what the plan was all those years ago. I optimistically decided to do my CBT first (Passed first time) Now I have a CBT, but no bike (that works and isn't in pieces, that's another story) I haven't applied for the V5, mainly because I don't know what the reg number is. There was a tax disk on the bike from 2001, but water had got inside the holder and made the reg. number illegible. I do however, have the frame and engine number, '*13A000002'If anyone wants to lend some advice and abuse at me, it would be welcome. I stored the engine inside (after taking bits off that too) so I don't think there'll be too much of a problem there. It wasn't seized, and did turn over. (Until I took off the kick starter)Apparently, all it needed was a fuel tank and a magneto until I got my hands on it.. There's almost no rust on the bike, and the chrome on the wheels isn't that bad actually. So, what do I do now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesmanhop Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I have seen on Ebay assembly instructions for sale. That might be a good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesmanhop Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Not sure about the supplementary part of it but yes. I think if sometime was spent though, you may be able to find parts catalogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
