GoProKid Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Hi all, I do believe the E on DTR(E) means its a Dirt Trial ® with an electric start! Just a suggestion, I have no idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiebadboy Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 "R" means "race" with most bike models, usually a newer look & paintjob etc. I've just sold my DT125R after 6 years, that had a kickstart now got an XT600E the "E" on that is for electric start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyDtr08 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I might be wrong then, a guy i used to go to college with when i had my dt had a pre 04 model and I could of sworn it had an e-start. Nice to see you around again by the way. Only about 5-6 months late, sorry! Hi. Yeah I've been spening most of my time on the DTR forum. Should pop in here alot more often. Maybe that was a conversion. I've never seen a DT125R with an electric starter personally, only the E which I always understood to mean Electric. They had "electric" stickers on them i think. DT125 ran from 70's up to 1982 - These were aircooled ( were other versions like the 175 250 400) DT125LC ran from 82-87 and the LC stood for Liquid Cooled DT125R Ran from 88-2004 and its said the R was race but some say Road. DT125RE ran from 04-08 (?) and the extra E was for electric due to the electric start Then you have the 200 versions. DT200LC DT200WR ( WR stands for Wide ratio and is a very different bike to the DT125R) WR200 is the same bike as above but more like a competition bike with a plastic tank, no autolube and a few others. There is also a DT230 which is like the RE in styling with a 230cc engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
