Love the banter and there cant be any ageism on here , I have been made welcome as an OAP and then at the other end we have the young guns just starting out , and the info is brill , I just hope that when you get to my age you are still in to bikes and still getting as much fun out of your biking as I am again after the find of one rusty neglected DT and your help and encouragement to bring it back to working order was priceless

Bar pad is for little pussies, twin walls are to thin, mainly why i got fatbar's as its more suited to the sumo

while i have had a few dts in the past .1x50 3x125 they have never been kept for long about 2 years being the longest.because i've always wanted bigger bikes.now after 25+years this will be a bike that i will keep (when i can afford one) and after going on a few sights and forums the on thing that #isses me of is when people ask about tuning or other advise is why do some people always say get a bigger bike!!.after seeing some of the bikes that have been built being built or just featured on here is amazing as well as the response to questions asked. you do not get patronising answers and some of the members on here really know there stuff. i must admit when i firs started to look at this sit i thought it would be a few teenagers all bullsh#ting about how fast there bikes are but this has been blown out of the water.keep up the good work

 I'd have to agree with ye there Ringo!! Great site with loads of information, and everyone I've talked to so far have been well sound!! Cheers lads!! biggrin

I came across here from the Yamaha Club forum which is also a great forum but the wealth of knowledge that is on this forum, spcecific to the DT is incredible. Theres a real community spirit and like you say no teenagers bull pooping about doing 120 on a DT. I'm sure in years to come when the DT125 gets the merit and credit it deserves this forum will be one of the centre points of it all.

120 on a dt my dt 125 mx could top 125mph up hill into a gale force 8 no prob!!!! ha ha thats what i like about this forum there's a lot of good humored banter and people know what there on about.i just about know my way round a engine but have never done a rebuild.this is something that I'm itching to do when i eventually get mine.any one can get a 160+bike but getting a125 to do a genuine ton thats achievement.if possible ps i'm not bikeist i like all types of two wheels from peds to super bikes the only one i have had which i thought was a complete pile of poo was a Honda ft 500 and poo it was
