Moderator Airhead Posted July 18, 2013 Moderator Share Posted July 18, 2013 They did make this bike in supermoto form, it's the DT125X so look out for wheels and forks for one of these bikes...NEV will tell you more if he sees this post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I haven't checked all the part numbers, but I think you can do a straight swap with the wheels from the 'X' version. I know that the discs are the same size. The forks on the 'R' are slightly longer but that's the only difference. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
