Hot DT
in my experince with my dt is is just there little thing mine was rebuilt and within 2 hours she cut out like that winter i find she doesnt cut out as much unless its raining >< the high revs are a bugger to get right , mine just ticks over with out the choke on since my dad altered the clutch and stuff . CDI .. optional? i'd take it out if it is. x

DT50 MX engine problems
obivously yours is a bad egg ... mine goes like hell , the 125's are fantasic even more if you like the bumps and also its good experience. jumping straight on the jawa would kill you on corners.

DT50 MX engine problems
oh no ... me neither , have my eyes on a pretty 125.. though not the dt .. because i hear they like to blow up alot more than the 50's =/ . dont fancy a winter and summer of constantly repairing the bike again lol . shame your not a little closer could of had a DT50 mx ride out , every other person i know round here has either an apprillia or a twist and go scooter ... no fun to ride out with . although riding with a 1200 bandit behind u is fun =) xx

DT50 MX engine problems
hey oh yeh i love her to bits .. we have problems with the carb anyways , but it seemed that the back brake sticking on and too hot a spark plug was the cause. we've managed between 5 of us kill one DT someone droppped it and it just wouldnt start after that , though it had been modified up to the hilt. lol. hoping to have a good summer with her before i take my bike test in the winter . thank u . xx

DT urgent help!
this sound simlar to my 50 ... it doesnt cause a major problem , but it would be a good idea to have a look at the piston if your really worried my dt50 rattles well only if she's running differently would i worry .

DT50 MX engine problems
we have , she runs hot , but she has done ver since we had her . she doesnt cough or splutter , just dies . so we ruled out fuel problems first off =/ it had a big bore on it before it seized up , so the jets should be the same but i assume my dad would of checked them after my dad fitted the kit . we just hae little idea about what it is now .

DT50 MX engine problems
hey looking for some idea as to what he cause of the engine problem on my bike is . heres her story i bought her off ebay , stripeed her down like u do , to refurbish her , as i had her sitting about for a few month before i was 16 . ran perfectly afterwards up and down the tracks , when i got her on the road it was winter but i still had 3 onths of bliss . then trouble started. i first had to replace the fuel filter as fuel was leaking from the old one she had another tap put on the petrol tank too , we cleaned the carb after the first time she droppped revs and this seemed to solve the problem however riding her home a month ago in the puring rain she cut out and wouldnt start again , thinking she'd seized up i push her home and sat her in the garage to be fixed , but she started on second kick and ticked over perfectly the next day. last weekend she died and siezed up in the hot weather , we bought a bg bore kit , fitted it and it seemed all ok when i was riding her round the block. but now the problems back .. she slows down theen stops likes the engine seizes , but then 5 minutes after she kickstarts and goes for another 10 minutes then cuts out and does the same . anyone think they can help ?? please ?

Broken DT50 stand
hey , i recently had to replace the stand on my DT50 its alot easier and better to get a new one . they're cheap to buy and you havent got the fear of the metal being weak and finding your bike on the floot and the engine knackered . this happened to my old one . it also gie you a chance to look for a center stand , though i dont think they have them =/ . hope it helps Sami x
