My 2 tips would be:

Say hello in the new members section.

Tell us what you want to use it for. What mileage do you do, will it be you only form of transport and stuff like that.

A DTR125 is what you need then.

The older DT125's are more fun, but in a different way and should be ridden like a classic - well some of the time.

Seat heights are quite high so get to sit on a few before you buy, assuming you are not a giant. Something that hasn't been messed about with is best. No "go faster" stickers or plastic that looks like kevlar or rim tape, boy do I hate rim tape!!! Nothing that looks like the chain is hanging off or where indicators and the like are held on with insulation tape.

Rather a tatty one with fresh oil and lubed chain than one with Monster stickers and a twin headlight conversion.

A decent DEP pipe or similar is a bonus too.

Taken off youtube - nothing to do with me
