  1. There is also the black and green wire behind the clocks. This restricts the revs. The 'electric powervalve'. It's always been electric on the DTR mate. It's controlled by a motor. However the DTR has seen two generations of the YPVS. The 3 wire servo and the 5 wire servo. They are not interchangeable but I can't see why you would want to. Make sure the YPVS is set up as Yamaha intended and leave it like that. That's the best way to get the most power out of the bike.
  2. It's the only one of its kind in the whole of Gloucestershire and i'm not selling it. So it'll be me That pic does makes it look much better than it actually is. It got stolen from me and they managed to smash it up. So it's actually a wreck. I haven't replaced the panels yet. But thanks

    How to get the rear wheel done. Front end on the Aprilia with the front end of the DT Sprayed the rear arm black Finished the front brake off Use the Rs125 front master Socks to protect the seals on the USD's This is a photo of the rear brake bracket. Because the wheel is fatter than the standard DTR one I cannot just attach the brake and say happy days. The front AND the rear wheel MUST be in line. And then to complicate things further the front AND the rear sprockets must ALSO be inline So I have to machine down the rear brake carrier So now the rear wheel is in the correct position. All I have to do is make sure that the brake sits fully on the disc. To do this we made an adapter plate to fix the brake onto the spacer. I must say that rear brake is SO MUCH BETTER than the standard brakes LMAO! Adapter plate. Uhh sprocket ratios are now my next big concern.... This is the biggest rear sprocket I can find for theses wheels. The original is being held up next to it. And even here it is still TOO SMALL! Lack of power in the engine just struggles to pull the sprockets. I've got 13 teeth on the front and 46 on the rear. Also used a 520 pitch conversion on it. Because the wheel is a different thickness I've had to space out the rear sprocket in order for it to be in line with the front. I don't think I can go any bigger on the rear anyway! It's this close to touching the swing arm! A spanking new full DEP system and everything all wired up and power on after six months! I have missed off a few things in this post that I also did. But the jist is there Few pics around the bike

    Made up a bearing cup in order to maintain the original height of the USD forks. I.e. use the YZ stem Insert the taper bearings instead of using the original DT bearings Sprayed to match the frame Put it all back together (Not WORKING IN THIS PHOTO) Mock template for the front brake

    That TDR looks crisp lol
  9. Ouch! Lol. Seriously cooked. I highly doubt that not upjetting has caused this. This could be a number of problems. Either lack of or no oil Easily done if the bikes been sitting for a length of time that sludge has built up and stopped oil getting through. Or blockage in the coolant and has stopped coolant reaching the cylinder. I don't think it's that. The DTRE Carb is actually restricted to 210 main jet. Athena may not have taken this into account. You should have put the Carb back TO STANDARD JETTING when fitting an aftermarket pipe. Which is actually 240 main jet not 210. 210 is the restricted jet size. It looks like insufficient cooling defo.
