Fair play then mate! The £97 does include them fitting the tyre aswell, the tyre was £55 innertube £10 and £32 to remove wheel from bike fit tyre and refit wheel back on bike. I used a company called Chemix.

Mite try one of them maxxis next time!

This is how my bike is atm. Gave her a bit of clean while shes stripped down a bit. Polished the dep with brasso wadding also used it to go over the engine, swingarm and rear hub its great stuff cuts thru oily, greays crap propa easily. Gonna go over the whole frame before i put it back together. You can see the difference the brasso stuff makes i did the headstock but havent done the rest of the frame and headstock is shiney! Also did one half of the cylinder and left the other half so you could see difference.

Yeh i had my ones off ebay aswell, i got the longer black rear ones which were bought from hein but never fitted for £5.19. The short silver front ones were on the bike front and rear when i bought it but when it was stolen they ripped the rear indies off so had to get replacements.

Gotta love the ebay bargains!!!

@ woll - Theres not much choice for dts so wouldnt say copied you! i did think it looked good on your bike tho b4 ordering tho!! lol. I actually do want rid off the yz stickers now!

@ craig - The indy are mounted on a bracket thats hidden by the number plate. I didnt have to trim the seat down at all the fender just pushes the back end of the seat up a bit.

I am after a set off new OEM tank panel decals to freshen it up a bit and to get rid of the yz stickers. As said before ive tried peeling the yz stickers off but its bringing the original decals off with it and i dont want it to look a mess. Im scared to ask yam the price coz im guessing it will be a ridiculous price!!

Cheerz for the positive comments lads!

Cheerz seiki, yeh im really pleased with it!

Gonna get a new chain and front sprocket on her soon, want to get a gold DID chain. Think that would make quite a bit of difference. My chain is mega grotty and is a bit stiff in places!!

Me and my Dad went for a ride today we did about 60 miles. Doubt many of you will no where these places are but we went from dudley round ironbridge, kinver, much wenlock and bridgenorth then home. On the way back we past a bikers cafe and there was a meet there. Took a couple of pics of my DT next to the crowd of bikes!!






There were some well nice bikes there but id have felt too much of a dick going round taking pics of them!!! A bloke came up to me aswell and was saying how great dt's are and that he had one for his first bike and that mine was really nice!!
