That's great, thanks...the wemoto ones look the ticket!

Hi, Anyone know where I can get a set of fork gaitors for a dt175mx....cant seem to find one's long enough with the right top and bottom diameter. Cheers

Cheers for that...got one ordered!

I think at 400 odd quid I'll give the genuine one a miss...copy here we come....

Sorry, should have specified...its for the dt

Has anyone any experience of using the mikuni copies for sale on t'internet?? My original one is scrap and there doesn't seem to be any around. Cheers

Hi, ...is it true that you don't have to strip the forks down to change the seals on a dt175mx??? Cheers

Hi....my front rim is crap....would an xt250/350 drum brake model wheel fit? Not bothered about a bit of fettling just after an alloy rim!! Cheers

Evening all....got myself a new project, an 1981 dt 175...does anyone know what finish should be on the bottom yoke...is it that green finish that Yamaha used to put on kickstarts etc around the time or is it gloss or satin?? Cheers

Hi, Just a thought, have you tried cmsnl.com? I used them a few times for my dt. Good luck

It does make you wonder why on earth a 125 single needs a pump in the first place

Hi chief all speedos are inaccurate. Don't worry about it unless it's like my old garelli, which used to sway between 10 and 30 no matter what speed I did

Hi, earlier carbs will fit fine, but you are best off getting the originals cleaned professionally. ( I had mine done a few years back for £50 ). The earlier carbs may look clean but unless you know where there coming from you cant guarantee they'll be any better than the present ones. If you do them yourself immerse the innards in nail varnish remover or paint stripper-you can re-use the gaskets. Hope this is of some use Cheers

Chief, cant repack the bugger its welded all round. Actually I think it looks like it came like this as standard. Just too loud; 25 years ago it would'nt have bothered me...
