    hello mate, I just finished doing my first bike, a dt125 from scratch so I may be able to help a bit. The best places I found for new bits are yambits.co.uk and wemoto.com. The best for everythig else is ebay. one of the best ways on ebay is to search for dt125 and find people breaking a bike and just get ask them for whatever part you're looking for. also it's worth watching a few bits first so you can get an idea of what money you should be paying and don't just buy stuff staight away. the right bits always come along at the right price eventually. finally, have you decided on a certain year/model? as there are loads of dt125's and quite often the parts aren't always the same. research the model and year you want on this forum and do a few google searches and get a haynes manual for that specific bike before you start buying parts. Good luck, Dan.

    Thanks for the reply, thats good news then! do i need to connect the wires from the battery together or to anything to make a circuit or just tape them up and leave them? Thanks again, Dan.

    Hi, can anyone tell me what size and type of capacitor I need and where I can get one from? I have a dt125 lc mk1 which is 6 volt, it has no lights or ancillaries so I want to do away with the battery. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dan.

    I've recently bought a mk1 dt 125 lc and it's missing a few bits. Can anyone tell me if there are any other bikes which have the same engine. The reason I ask is because I need a left side crankcase cover and I'm struggling to find one. The other thing is, I've got a carb off an Rd which is the same as the dt one but with different guts, but can anyone tell me if my bike will run just by adjusting it, or will I need to get the right needle, jets etc. Thanks, Dan
