alright fellas got a wee bit of a problem with the dt125 .
had the bike out yesderday for first time in a few months ,was stored in my garage after a service new coolant oil ect..
was strated every week just to keep the old engine lubed up nice.
so too cut it short i took her out gave her a few laps round my way and then decided i would hit a trail not to far from me for a bit of crack!! (crack all right) as soon as i hit the dirt gave her the dig and held her on a nice weelie in second to 3rd. repeated the same and snap crack wheel lock up engine died silence!
so i was stuck on my own no signal on phone were i was brilliiant...
looked down the chain was of the rear cog and wedged between the bolts of the sproket.
chain still intact not snapped. so i manage to get it release it wasnt half stuck tho rolled it back onto the sprocket drove it straight home 2 mile slow as i new my chain must of been loose.and i could here it clinging and wacking on the swing arm-chain guard .
so straight into garage on the stand checked all over chain fine sprockets fine.
but looked closer and saw the dreaded sight of broken engine case no damage to the actual main cases just the wee cover on top behind the chain guard on the engine now i do its there it looks a right sight but as i say didnt crack engine thankfully. but just rount the front sprocket there is well was a kind of black block that slid into behind the fornt sprocket not to sure what this is but its in 2bits on my kitchen side.
so put the chain all back on checked all was right alligned chain ajusted right hit the road and noticed in 2nd gear it would judder from the back wheel and like a clicking noise, so straight home wheel of checked all bearings axel all fine. so what could this be...???? im thinking second gear fooked as i cant think of anythink else other that new chain sprokets but dont want to go get em and realise they wasnt needed.. so any input would be great hopefully someone no of or has experiance this before... and if so it is the gear. them bottom ends hard to do? thanks in advance people.. dluke
