Welcome dragster girl" This is where the two-stroke triumphs over the 4stroke, The Dtr & DT125"s can be modified easily , check out the de-restricting threads, they top 80mph,
And a member on here [ C.B.D] Has a dtr125 tops 90mph..... Yeh it can embarrace some 400cc bikes, & To think 2 stroke "s will be out-lawed some day ,
If its a1977/8 model. they were points, later models had Mitsibushi CDI [ FST 00172] unit, Look under side panel , beside battery, the CDI unit should be bolted there,

Hi nayruf " your a bigger Dt annorack than me .. Brilliant info. i had the White/ red.1976 , new back then, I wanted the 1975 colours, but when i went to pick up bike, [ 1st Aug] R reg, they changed to 76 colours ,,So now am making my own , ,,
After mutch discusion, today ,and loads of trawling, there are diffrences, in pitch of top & front of tanks, also decals are slightly different. bevel front on decals, and round, short pieces to filler cap,& long.
Hav ordered the correct decals,
Was out on my H2 today, after rebuilt engine [honed/ new rings/ & 3rd gear,and selector fork] , My shudda seen the smoke . after bleeding pump, & pre-mix.. Smooth changes now,
Now for the DT..............
