My 1992 YAMAHA DT125R PROJECT
As we can see this has raised the bars slightly, hope there's no price to pay regarding cable lengths but it's not much of a raise is it.

crappy indeed Jason, still...best with a thin smear of silicone just around the bore circumference ( not all the gasket face) also I think.

if your head gasket had gone it's not really surprising you have gunk in there, it may take several flushes to clear it, since it is summer I would keep changing the fluid in the radiator, dont bother wasting your money on coolant just use distill (de-ionised) water and when youre happy fill with coolant again. but how do you know your head gasket is good now? did use use a black rubber coated one or one of the nasty cheap copy pattern ones?

Dan I assume you are asking for advice about the 'only runs with choke'...this is often a blocked pilot jet, strip and clean the carb thoroughly paying particular attention to this jet.

Thundercat suspension
I know shocks can be repaired, re-built. My local shop has a chap that does it so long as seals are available, but a bigger name and no doubt pricey alternative is 'Hagon'...dont they do this? http://www.hagon-shocks.co.uk/common/pagedetail.aspx?PageCode=contact

When a DT175 is hard to start cold
Great new you fixed it David, it's a great feeling to have it running well again eh?...Now to rub your nose in it a little further Ahh c'mon David, are you saying my photos and description of operation needs clarifyinng?? I also asked you to specifically test this jet wasnt blocked, even after you stated it was clear, thats why the issue took so long and you became frustrated. Anyway good you now have it beat and it would be good to see another video or your bike at the end of your 'other post' Cheers...Paul

yamaha rxs 100 with a tzr carb on [ same as a dt carb ] 26 mm mikuni carb
My first thoughts are that you have been told wrong, but... told what you wanted to hear I doubt the porting in the RXS100 is big enough to benefit from the bigger carb...if thats the case you're wasting your time.

Twin Wall Renthal handlebars
I would ask them anyway, explain your error etc, perhaps they can swap for 22mm ones?

DT125R - HELP! Brake Fluid not draining from Reservoir/pumped by Master Cylinder
If youre filling it in reverse dont press the pedal. Also if the pipe that attaches from the syringe to the nipple comes off you will risk soaking your brake pads in brake fluid, I would wrap the caliper in something, rags or polythene in case this happened. You may find a little PTFE tape on the nipple thread would also help to stop fluid leaking through the thread

dtr or sm
Not sure of all the differences but they have different forks and the sm has a brembo stopper up front, the sm's are less common and if you find a good one it would be a great investment...matter of fact if you find a good one of both types youre doing well because most of them are ridden by the youngsters who thrash them everywhere, I bought one a while back (trail) and am so glad I did that She'll be loaded up like a mule tomorrow, off to the aircooled RD rally in Derby, yes I know its not an RD :
