you have full dep?
have taken off the snorkel and is it all jetted correctly?
what about earthing the speedo wire?
not much you can do otherwise apart from altering the gearing.
go up a tooth or 2 on front sprocket.

U DONT NEED AFTER MARKEt mate a oem or mitaka one will be fine, used in all mx engines and they produce way more power than a dt even with big bore lol

make sure u do the main bearings aswell at the same time, and may aswell do the gear box for an extra tenner or so

this one will be fine its oem so as good as owt ull buy, wiseco is just a name sodont bother, been there done that had the crunch to go with it lol

I think you're allowed more! But you've gotta prove that by them taking your licence away it would be an ''exceptional hardship''

But c'mon OP if you've got 12 points do you really need to be going any faster? disbelief

And don't anyone chime in saying that it's hard to get points on a DTR or whatever cause that's where I got mine!! I was just going under 50 in a 30 zone.. In the snow! Haha

I`ve been banned serveral times for DD40`s mainly. I`ve been given alot of points over the years aswell too many than I want to remember. Speeding, failing to stop No Insurance lets just say a fair number of driving offences. I`m glad to say I have a clean licence now and intend to keep it that way. If I`m honest I`ve driven cars & bikes like a right nobba at times in the past. If you drive / ride that way it will only end in tears & it will hurt your pocket too. I`m back on a L plates now as I`ve only started driving again the last couple of months as the last time my ban was up which was about 7 years ago now so at the time I decided to give driving a miss for abit. Let my convictions get spent and start afresh with a complete new slate. I regret my foolish ways and I`m far from proud of my offences I will have to take extended driving test again now too. But to be honest you do learn alot from having to go with a school which instructs for extended driving tests. I just hope none of you lads ever end up with regrets how I have done in the past. So Wheeling at the lights & along the roads and speeding like a mad man in your built up areas may seem like abit of fun at the time, but its foolish & If you wanna put your life in danger thats all good. But what we have to remember there is innocent people out there too who could quite easily become a victim of stupidity & lets face it you always get caught in the end when it comes to flouting the law trust me on that one.

Don`t get me wrong we all have choices in the world I`m not trying to tell people how to ride/drive thats up to you. I`m saying if you do drive/ride that way nothing good will come of it in the end like what has happened to me & So if I can share my experiences so someone in DT125.com famo don`t end up in the kind of situations I have been in the past can only be a good thing. I think this forum is great. There is alot of valuable info on here & fellow members who are willing to give help & advice & share their Knowledge which is shweet. This place holds so much info for Dt Owners some great topics too. A great bunch of lads too. Glad to be part of the famo. smile

Yeah well said man.

 

I am like a saint compared to my friends. I do enjoy blasting through town or in the country and I am one of those people who say 'Ah it'll be alright it won't happen to me'. Wrong. This forum sort of makes me wise up a bit. I haven't got any points on my license. And your right it IS going to catch up with me.

 

Thanks for sharing.


I think I might just grow up a bit! :\
