Hello there! It's been a while since I've had any actual problems with the DT, I thought I was immune to it, but this is what happens if you lend someone your bike and they take it offroading in the pouring rain. The bike starts and runs perfectly up until 7000 revs, then it starts misfiring like a bastard...

Hi Everyone, I'm new to this forum and Dt's for that matter! I recently bought a 2006 DT125R with 6000 miles on the clock; the bike had a thorough service just before Christmas. I took the bike out today and covered about 50 miles on it, the bike was/is running fine but when I was about 10 miles from home the...

Plug cleaned and back in the bike it started first kick, problem solved I thought. I had np with the bike out on my run la...

The rattle finally stopped but as soon as it did the b...

Hello people. Now, I've heard about two-strokes gobbling through spark plugs, and wasn't at all surprised when my DTR started doing it, but is it normal for a bike to be picky about what type of sparkplug? The standard B9ES sparkplug will last for about 500 miles before blowing, the BR9ES (I think...

Hi, I've just bought a 04 DTRE, never had a bike before and my mechanical knowledge is comparable to that of a small blind child. My bike came with no manual or instructions either so I'm in a bit of a predicament. I've found the 2 stroke oil reservoir, but on the other side of the bike is a...

Hello Need a bit of help Have got a 98 DTR which is a great laugh when off roading or green laning. The only issue is that when i go through any water, no matter how small, the bike doesn't like it.
