dt125 rebuild
Finished getting all the parts on today, just having a bit of an issue with the battery, or at least i think/hope its the battery. Charged it twice and it loses charge nearly instantly when put on the bike. Charging it with a different charger tonight so i got my fingers crossed ill be back mobile tomorrow . You thinking of riding your DTR to the 2-stroke meet?

Good garage, near Wilmslow?
What i am getting at is, if the cap has been changed (which it has btw, as it should be the same key as the ignition) then there may not be any/enough air getting into the tank to allow the fuel to flow. If the problem reappears then take the fuel cap off and put it back on again, if it cures the problem and the bike starts, you may have an air-locked tank. I don't like to disagree with 2-wheels, but i don't think its the jets or carb, as they don't tend to clear themselves after being stood for a while, they normally get worse. But i may be wrong. Vez.

dt125 rebuild
Its a r/h thread. But it tightens itself up something silly. To get it undone in the past i have fitted an old chain had a friend hold the back brake on and swung on it for England (probably not good advice but its what i had to do at the time) Since then i have made a little tool to hold the sprocket in place while i undo the nut. Vez. Edited due to having a gearbox sat on the desk next to me

how do you split a xv 125 engine?
If its anything like most i have worked on you will possibly need a flywheel puller for the magnet (flywheel). Although i have used a rubber mallet to gently tap the flywheel whilst pulling it away from the bike, but i have broken magnets using this method. It best if you get a puller. They come in different shapes and sizes and are not to expensive. Below is the type i have. And the part of the clutch you are talking about is for possibly for adjustment, if you remove the springs it should come off,and the part you talked about should be attached to a long bar that protrudes into the shaft in the middle with a ball bearing after it that may roll out. Friction can hold the outer plate on quite well. HTH Vez

Decent off -Just back from hospital
Most solicitors will give you a 30min consultation for free. And £170 per hour is cheap, the trainees at my local solicitors get more than that, iirc the qualified guy gets £300 p/h. Vez.

DT125R - Two Stroke Beginner!
Hi Chocolate Teapot, welcome to the forum Where does the two stroke oil go? The clear-ish plastic tank to the front right side of the fuel tank, with the black cap. What is the best kind of two stroke oil to use? Best kind of oil will depend who you ask. I would suggest a semi synthetic such as http://www.opieoils....otorcycles.aspx ( i use fully synthetic, but the advantages are debatable). Also paid up members of the forum get a discount at opie oils Do I need to mix the fuel with any oil - if so, what are te quantities? No that what the 2-stroke oil/tank is for, pre-mix is usually used on 2-stroke racing bikes or bikes that don't have a 2-stroke oil pump fitted. Where can I get replacement panels? (one is cracked) Ebay is your friend, what panel and colour do you need as i can look out for one for you? What regular maintenance is required? Refer to the manual. Where is the best place to buy spares? I can second wemoto, usually very quick delivery. Also http://www.pjme.co.u...aha_DT125R.html and http://www.mandp.co....tsperpage=10000 ( again paid up member of the forum get a discount at M&P too) Anything I should be aware of? (I know very little!) Well, theres a question. Never talk to strangers. look both ways when crossing the road and never trust a fart . Ok, all i can think of is use a good grade unleaded fuel ( look for a high RON rating on the pump). Look after your bike and it will look after you. What does concern me is that the previous owner couldn't tell you where to put the 2-stroke oil HTH Vez.

Hi Ginger, To the forums. I think you may need a rack with a top box, but can't say for sure. Maybe some one else on here can tell you for sure. Vez.

DT125 PV Pulley
Can't think of anything really, i suppose you may as well clean any carbon from the exhaust port while you can, and have a look to check your piston/rings are looking ok. (presuming you have the exhaust off to align the PV correctly when refitting that is) Oh and pictures are always good Vez.
