Hi and welcome to the forum. You'll be very lucky to find a decent one for that money. The value of them is increasing all the time. For a decent one your looking at £1300+

Grouch is spot on mate I paid £1500 for my 06 125 RE it's good looking with that used look it had a slight carb problem with the float needle to begin with which my local bike shop sorted.ive done a few mods to it. You will probably get a reasonable 2000-2003 DTR for that money depends on what model you think hits the button for ya. I live in East london and travelled to a bike shop in Croydon/Surrey way to get the bike good luck on your hunt for that DTPosted Image

Ignore them. For 900quid dont look at 06 stuff, their slower anyway.

Step back further, go for a tidy late 90's bike (quicker). There are thousands out there so go see, then go see another. Till you get a good one.

They are abused from mile 1 so age is irrelevant Just condition.

Them there are SO many dt's out there you just got to put a bit of effort and patience and a tidy 900 quid bike will come up.

They havd been making them for over 30 years.
