hello i have a dt 125 re 2005 and the kick start does not engage i got the bike like this hopefully its nothing serious...basicall i have to tilt the bike to the right and then it will kick if the bike is upright as normal the kickstart does not engage....any ideas?
oki check the kick starter is that workin right take it out make sure the cog on that twist out like it should but mine was the spring in the wrong place
it has to have a decent bit ov tension on it to return, but theres another spring at the back pushing the mechanism back on the splines, have you had a look at that spring aswell
id just whip all the mechanism out and have a look at it, somets not right
Yea they can be a bugger, little tip when you get the spring and the lug clip thingy in place and u think u got it put side case back on with 2 or 3 screws then give it a few good kicks as they have a nasty habbit of slipping again lol

oooww play in wat direction??? up n down is bad...real bad, in and out i spose is ok but not alot check out my build thread in my sig, at the start theres a pic of the inner case wer it has cracked, that crack is around the clutch basket shaft bearing or input shaft bearing wat ever u wanna call it lol and that caused major problems lol i got rid of tht engine as it needed a new crank case....long
u might be a bit more lucky..well i say lucky u might have to completely strip the engine split the cases n replace that bearing, have a closer look at it m8 take the clutch basket off n tell me wat u see
