Airhead

Hmm yes can I recommend a temperature gauge!

Greetings Joshua

is the rebore a consequence of what happened or just needed one anyway Jason?

err you didnt have the time to say hello then?

never heard of changing the carb to be on the 'must do' list kieran, DEP pipes look good if you keep em clean and sound good too

Great news Brig, You've got cracking mrs well done

I make it a DT100 1980

could it be simply running low on fuel? I dont know anything about this bike BTW, hopefully someone who knows them will chime in. Perhaps there is two fuel tanks, a main and a reserve ? Have you studied the owner manual? I take it you bought it private sale If you havent got a user manual, download one for free here, just select the year http://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/services/owner-manuals/index.aspx

Greetings Hall and This forum is for new members to say hello and i note, you didnt bad boy, go stand in the corner¬

Yeah more importantly is condition, better to pay (what you may think) a high price for a good one with plenty of meat, Than buy a cheap one on it last bore size and stripped or oversized studs...broken fins etc etc....Ive done it believe me! The trouble with ebay is what's not said...best bet is you ask the questions. Oh and £60 sounds OK me but not for a bad one The other option is autojumbles...

looks like a busy day tomorrow Jason

Thats looking really good Pat

I thought Paul Dawkins could have given you all you need...was it Paul who dealt with it for you?

Greetings Camel and Would love to see it how about a

no 'dog bones' on these cantilever suspensions Pat

there isnt a way of lowering it without dropping the trees down the fork tubes...and yes cutting the springs is a non starter of an idea!

makes me wonder just how different the oil pump cable is (if any) to the DT175's...worth investigating? 175's have cheap pattern cables in abundance

I use motul transoil but absolutely any good make of oil is fine so long as its for motorcycles, even the oils labellet 4T are fine because its just a gearbox at the end of the day, its more important to change it occasionally rather that worry about which brand IMO

water pipes maybe, the carb is heated by the cooling water?
