Evening everyone, I was here but due to stuff I lapsed. Well I am back and I now have time to get to grips with my DT250. First of all I need to register the bike and then I can sort out all the legal stuff I need to do. I've had the bike for under a year, its been totally restored and was shipped from NYC a few years back. The guy I brought it off had 16 odd bikes and the DT never got a look in so he sold it to me. So here I am, please be gentle. Any hints or tips appreciated. Cheers saul.

Thanks guys, Im on it. The bike was shipped from the States and has a Nova

Thanks Blackhat, I got her started last night, bloody awesome racket. Its got a day time MOT so Im figuring out how to get at the very least a stop light and a head light on the bike. Researching as I write. Watch this space!

Morning lovers, sorry this will be the last basic question for a while. Well until the next! So the guy I got the 71 bike off never started it! After the rebuild but his mechanic did. He collected bikes but didn't ride the DT. Ive looked on the net and have gotten differing mix ratio's. Everything from 30:1, 40:1 and even 60:1. They mention different oils too. Can anyone give me a definitive mix ratio please. 1971 DT 1 250CC. Thanks S.

Bikes great, amazing condition it's the DT 1, fully restored and shipped from the states. No chopping but no lights, speedo etc as with the original spec. I need to add at least the rear break light and battery. Somewhere! Seen the light on eBay from the US so investigating now.

Afternoon reader, so Im collecting a 1971 DT250 and it has a daytime MOT and I want to add lights. Anyone done this sort of conversion before? Hints or tips welcomed. Thanks.

Thanks Blackhat, being old and frail of mind whats the web address! I get the bike this saturday so want to sort asap. Cheers for the reply and welcome.
