as i am saving what model dt is the best to go for ? i have had a air cooled dt,an lc and mk1 ypvs so i really would like a working power valve next although i want to sumo it any way so it will be tuned any way thats the plan. so would a r or x be better.

i'm racking the old gray cells now! as i have lost (x through them in the bin )the photos of my bikes. were the 89 models the mk2 ypvs and the 88 mk1 ? the ypvs i had was black so it could have been a mk 2 no serov fitted you had to lock the power valve open or shut.its just that i plan on doing a lot of tinkering so i dont think its wort the extra money on something i dont need

The 1989 is the start of the newer DTR SHape bikes. These come with the YPVS installed.
The 1988 models is the very last in the line of the lc models and also come with the YPVS and the YEIS. They're just older style and have rear drum brakes. I'm not 100% but I got a feeling that the very last of the line of LC's had rear discs.
i was thinking may be the r will be a better bet .i already have the front end sorted gilera sc 125 wheel and disc as well as usd forks and yokes but as already have been told forks will be no good as to short but will be worth a look at any way arse in air head on deck .
