happy birthday :>

urs is a two stroke might have better accel than his

haha wish i could input but you could use a bean can as my end

im not missing any other great bikes am i?

wow great post and that tour of portugal looks amazing im high jellous! I really cant make my mind up on what to get its tough. :( im sure it will be what i can afford though and whats available! i love both the yams i have owned. both fun in different ways. maybe i should get a test drive on a xt660x. i have see xt660 and drz for under 2k both tidy examples. thanks for that post though

welcome mate. you should post some pics up!

hi mate welcome. Get a dt125r 2000-2002 in black (looks best imo) they are amazing bikes great fun. fast for a 125, simple to maintain. obviously you can get the sm versions but the dtr is just amazing fun turn off in to a field straight back to road. they are bomb proof aswell. mine got crashed, ran over by my gfs car, kicked over by a horse. picked it up starts first time . i have a xt125x atm its a great commuter. fun to ride, comfy, managed 70 on it. but it lacks that ooomph and the fun factor of a dtr. i would highly recommend either. dtr - quick, wheelies easy, easy to maintain/mod, you can actually over take people on it. 0-60 in under 8 xt125 - great for commuting, goes 100+miles on a tank, 0-60 in like 14seconds+++ lol , looks nice. Con would be doesnt feel as sturdy at the dtr and is 4stroke so sensible oh forgot to mention. you can lean over alot on the xt125x so it is fun but just not mental like the dtr. they are completely different riding experiences.

thanks for your advice thats kinda the conclusions i had come to aswell. ye the cost the ktms put me off as i need something reliable (just moved to a new house so money tight!). i like the drz they are pretty cheap and reliable from what i have read but clunky and slow? how do you find your xt660? i want something with some poke but i dont like sports bikes. maybe even something like a gsr 600 looks appealing. i loved the style of my dt even for a 125 it was amazing fun and was hoping the bigger SM's will leave me grinning after every ride

The time has come where im booking my bike test and moving up to something bigger. I am liking the KTM 625/690 SMC's, Suzuki dr-z. had a look in to the xt660x but couldnt find much positives on it. so might have to move from a yamaha. Any ideas or recommendations. p.s i would use it to commute aswell. cheers

cheers vez! Wish i still had my dt, that was dropped, crashed, kicked over by a horse, backed in to by a car. and not a scratch on it lol this thing shatters if u look at it funny. still nice to commute on :x

Hi all, long shot as i cant find anything. My key broke off in the fuel cap. was like turning butter and just broke off. Where can i get another one from?! i cant find one anywhere. xt125x 09 model. Kind Regards Sam

removed battery, removed fuse. wd40 on all wires put back together. works sweet as a nut now :s

I think its the clutch that is slipping as im getting slower and slower every day and i cant change in to 5th. I was just saying someone has stolen my sprocket case :/ weird! :X

i just noticed there is no sproket cover on it :S whats going on ahhh
