madrevs Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Hi new to the forum just purchased a 2003 yanaha dtr125 its a bit rough round the edges but roadworthy this is what ive done to it so far New clutch cable Stripped and cleaned rear caliper was binding Made new rh side powervalve cover as was missing until I can find secondhand replacement New exhaust gasket as was blowing (blowing from rubber connector now). Ordered new mixture screw as old one had snapped and was forced in the hole causing no tickover New sparkplug New battery Repaired clock illumination wiring Things still to do Fix indys as flashing rapidly Fit new mixture screw when it arrives Source and fit standard headlight and fairing (polisport one fitted at the mo but leaves wires exposed and has ba20d bulb fitment) Fit new temp sensor Source andcreplace plastics as current ones are tatty. Find where the blue wire with red stripe plugs into behind headlight Lots to keep me busy lol so will probably need a bit of advice along the way The bike goes like stink abd has the powervalve motor fitted and dep exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
