tyre bead
You will need a compressor to give it a blast of air to get the tyre bead to pop in. Attach the compressor and lightly bounce the wheel where the bead isn't sealing as you give it some air.

yamaha dt clutch puller
You should loosen the nut in the center of the clutch. Push the lever to the front. Move the center adjuster until the marks on the case and the lever align. Tighten the nut up. This should work assuming you have assembled the clutch correctly, not forgetting the little ball between the push rods.

Found my next bike :)
Have a reputation of being a very good bike. Good choice I think. I used to do their warranties and was impressed when I visited the factory.

yamaha dt clutch puller
Could be. Also you may need to make sure that the spindle that the puller goes on is fully turned in the direction that the puller pulls in before you line the rest up.

I don't want to get into finger pointing fella. Just for people to have a think. We all cock up from time to time and it isn't a "life or death" situation. just meant as a reminder and for people to seek assistance if they need it.

RANT - Workshop questions in the bar.
I understand that there will be occasional postings in the wrong section. I use my phone to access the forum. I am now using tapatalk 2 which I recommend. This can also cause double posts where the 3/4G service is patchy. A problem arises when a new poster comes along and, seeing a number of workshop threads in the bar, does the same in the mistaken belief that they are doing the right thing. They can then get told to post an intro and post in the right section as their first reply. This doesn't show the newbie the true helpful nature of the forum. Recently, the newbie first question posters tend to get a very supportive hint to post in the newbie section - this does depend on how their original post comes across - and a lot of them shoot straight over and post an intro. Hopefully, this means that the new member will stick around for a lot longer than one question. Better to get it right than possibly being ignored. The Mods have the power to correct most things. This includes; changing titles; moving, hiding, deleting, combining threads; and more. All that is required is for the OP to post that they want the thread moved etc or PM a Mod and this is easily done. A Mod may take this upon themselves to do this anyway. If anyone thinks they need some help, just shout. The Mods don't bite and can help.

RANT - Workshop questions in the bar.
FFS, why?? As I write this, 5 of the top 7 threads in the bar are WORKSHOP questions. It only takes elementary reading skills to find the WORKSHOP section and post WORKSHOP questions. In case help is needed, WORKSHOP is spelt like this. WORKSHOP

You have to feel safe and comfortable. We had 2wheels, a forum member, ride to Squires the other year on his DT125. He rode it from Ireland and did the journey via Scotland.

DT125 RE problems!!
Hi and welcome. My first suggestion is to say "hello" in the new members section. It helps to get reply's. My second suggestion is to post workshop questions in the workshop area. My advice would be to check the crank seals. Especially the left hand one. It also helps to tell us what you have already tried or done to the bike to eliminate repetition.
