DT125

[carlnicholson...]

Right chaps, I'm looking at buying a cheapie road legal off roader. I don't need anything special or fancy, I'm only uning it on some lanes around Rivington and on the occassional TRF run, it also has to be a small capacity, no more than 250 and ideally a 2T so I can do home rebuilds.

I have seen a few older DT125s for VERY good money, and not the really old ones either, the one I saw was one of the first with the unbraced swingarm and the more recent styling. I hired a nearly new one in Kos and was really impressed with it, but are the older ones up to the job of proper off roading?

I will be derestricting it, and rebuilds won't be a problem, but I was wondering whether it will all stay together!

Are there any other smaller capacity enduros about that go for under £500 does anyone know, or do you have a DT that you venture off road with?

Thanks in advance peeps.
