last cosmetics done on the dt 400(e.g. decals)...

consider to reactive the oilpump.

this weekend I'll start to work on the yellow dt 250.

look will stay "used" - only technique/electrics/mechanics will be renewed/restored.. :)

cheers

@blackhat haha my exhaust looks really ugly I know, just had to do that in time cause my exhaust seemed like a good meal for rust, the bike had surface rust but most of that is now covered with good old black paint. I guess I will repaint the exhaust black after my exams this summer, or even if I get lucky I will get a new after market exhaust on it :icon_biggrin: and oh btw, since you mentioned different tailights on DT's, I find the one on my DT to be really hideous unlike the one on Tom's DT400, just wanted to point that out.

in some european countries the nice small rear light was standard... I'm wondering what the swiss MOT testers will say.. ;-)

Of course we do. There are many DT owners on here and at least 2 regulars have Suzi TS250's. Here is mine, before and after:
