All fixed now it charges and starts on the button. just got to get some new brushes as the old ones are a bit low, its amazing how much fun you can have on an old dt125 I might just have to get a 250 now to keep it company.

Thanks Tony, You are right about the rd200 I have a spare dynamo off of one trouble is its a bit deeper than the one off the 125. I might see if the magnets are the same and see if I can swop some of it over. Cheers Pat
Sorry if I did not conform to the normal stuff but I thought this forum would be the same as the rgv, nsr, and Suzuki forum where we help each other with problems and have a bit of chat as well, if you can help with my problem I am ready to chat but to me it sounds like you probably don't.
Hi all, I just got myself a nice little 1978 dt125e the bike is all good apart from it does not put any charge back into the battery. I have had it apart and cleaned all the magnets and connections in the generator and checked the wires it has a strange type of regulator box very similar to what old cars would have used with a dynamo, I cant seem to find any info about the charging on this bike or any one who has worked on one. So if there is someone out there who can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated,
Cheers Pat
