Hi all, this is my 1990 Yamaha dt 125. I got it with a full dep pipe, yz 125 front mud guard, small indicators and a beefy rear tyre, Everything else is standard ( even the front tyre is original! )

Recently I have sprayed the pannels satin black, made a huge difference.
But unfortunatley pictures of it won't be coming for a week or two as the bike has seized and is at the workshop, bad times :(

I have big plans for the bike will upload pictures soon.

Damn sound's bad mate....if the crank is siezed or damaged you would be better of gettin a race crank (after Market) one they will be cheaper and better!

Keep us updated dude.......

I think a standard crank would be better unless your going to tune the head :)

The grinding sound could be the chain and/or sprockets, just a heads up! biggrin

Had a similar sound on my Derbi a few weeks ago now, had it diagnosed down to it being the chain/sprockets, turned out it was the chain. Then after getting the bike serviced a new sound appears, that was diagnosed by myself, my dad and my dads friend a offroad freak as being a worn bearing in the gearbox, but it was actually the little chain roller being knackered lmao :L

Cheers for the comments :)
The grinding noise is coming from the barrel but it runs very well so not sure what it is.
Very far from looking new lol need frame and swingarm sprayed and need a 2007 wiring loom and canrt find any that dont cost an arm and a leg :/
