That's a really nice looking dt mate. Keep in like that and you'll get a sound return. But whatever you do, don't get it nicked!

Please keep it locked da fùck up! Theirs would just have a field day ruining that and it's so nice!

its really shinny because ive painted the exhaust and then got a cloth with a bit of oil on it and it makes it every shinny ive been cleaning it alot. There is a little bit of rust on swingarm and a bit of paint missing wear your boots rub but other than that its good. i always wash the mud off and then wip everything in oil so it doesnt rust or spay wd40 everywhere :D

Do the yz 125 swingarms fit on the dt easy or are they a different size ?

Different size. I hear the tdr swingers fit relayively easily.

But anything like that is going to be a mission. I do have a spare 1988 yz swinger. Aluminium i believe. That was said to be a straight swap. But after getting it i doubt it. But still easy enougb to splice over to the dt. To then have a non rusting swinger.

i usually use 0w30. 10w40 usually feels a bit twitchy to me.
