OK it isn't the best around, but it was a bargain when i bought it, oh and a mess (cant find the pics) and i have to finish cleaning off the dep as the black part is doing my nut in now, it was all painted black.

I want to supermoto it, spray the swing arm and get rid of that horrible front light. (dtx light with a nice crack in it)

like some one comments below that video the other method works also .  simply filled it with water, plugged both ends like the guy in this video did, and then put it in the freezer. The water freezes and expands, it pops those dents right out.

ps any one ever tried the filled with water method on  a petrol tank dent ?

 +1, don't find many others that share this opinion. Each to their own and I like them standard!! :)

 

Also, did you replace the plastics and tank? Those are from a 1999 i think. or did you mean 1999?
