Hubo

As Airhead has said, its just the points

Was teaching my 10 year old son the art of doing wheel stands on his bike (much to my missus disgust!!). He mastered it pretty quick, so I thought I'll show him how to change gear while doing it...Part of the front fence and garden now lay in pieces on the ground after I kind of misjudged my speed and ran out of room! hehe Might just go back to the Dt and Hide in the garage.... SHHHHH, dont tell my wife!!! ps Im still trying to get some photos up hubo

Wild foamy!!!....you kinda got the wrong country. You may need to study the flags more carefully. hehe Aussie about 3000 kms west of me so im thinking the sheilas are there lol

Since you ased, DkD, I will explain! lol... I bought this Dt for $50 NZ (thats about 20 quid I think) 10 years ago. I thought it would last perhaps 1 ride and it would die as it was pretty stuffed when i got it! BUY NO!!! IT STILL LIVES! I live about 5 mins from a large river where the local council maintain 5 motorcross tracks which you can use free of charge! (lucky aye) plus there is the river bed to use. Over the years I have had newer bikes that are more comfortable to use but they come and go and the Dt remains. I kind of forgot the Dt's (and mine) limitations as we flew off a rather large jump while playing with "the big boys"...until we hit the ground. I think the suspension and forks are in need of TLC. Im sorry to offend anyone here but in 10 years all I've done to it is...1 oil change 6 years ago, 1 spark plug 3 years ago and 2 front tubes. Its been drowned in the river 4 times and never drained...always starts back up after a few kicks. Its an awesome machine...Nothing beats the classics!!!!!!!!!!

I discovered a week ago that my Dt125 does not like flying over 2.5 metres above the ground!...The landings are what rattles us.! lol I do need to add that both the bike and I are 1974 models, the bike being 3 months older than me. Ive got some pics somewhere...must hunt them out. Great site you guys have and looking forward to being part of it
