I belive tdr,dt and tzr engines are the same. only differences being reeds/carb/gear ratio's.

SPARES FOR SALE. 2RK TZR // 82 DR125 // DT125R/E .... PM ME... |

Problem for me is every where I go, they quote me 56mm as being std size piston, but mine is 56mm with a 1. stamped on crown, which Im taking to mean its 1mm over size.(or could it mean piston 1 from a twin set for the tdr250 ?) I notice from the haynes manual for the engines up to 1992, that the tzr and dt engines differ slightly in bore size, then the only thing which would make sence, is if a 55mm piston was available for one of the other engines and this was a 1mm oversize for one of them but fitted to my engine?
The problem I have is no one is showing an oversize piston for my tdr. So it looks like Im looking at a new/second hand barrel and piston. Does anyone know if the haynes manual covering the dt125 up to 95 cover the 3mb00 engine?
Thanks again for ur reply Element |
I'm not 100% certain that your piston is 1mm over sized.
Now, any member is free to correct me if I'm wrong here but:
I thought when they made some two strokes they measured the barrels for tolerances and then did the same with the piston. Each type they mark with a different number. I remember someone on here asking what number piston they needed for an NSR125 and someone replied saying where they could find out the correct measurement. There were three measurements based upon a bunch of tolerances which meant you had three possible markings. Logically 1, 2 and 3!
I'm fairly sure your piston isn't oversized, but the best way to find out is get the vernier calipers out and measure it! ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F

Thanks all for posts, armed with info i have now purchased from ebay a 56.5 piston, intended for a dt125r, not my tdr, had the local engineering firm rebore the barrel, the firm who said it could be bored; fitted back together, turned on and pressed the magic button, turned over but did not start, then drained the tank only to find a full pint of water mixed with the petrol within. flushed all throu, carb as well, and tried again, great the engine fired into life and after 30 seconds of white smoke shes ticking over fine. Thank you BCF and all. However went to drop into gear and the bike stalled with a lurch, it appears the clutch is not working, thought it might be oil or lack of, so drained the old stuff. But then the drain plug/ bolt does not look right, the head end is not flanged to take a washer to seal, indeed no washer was in place plus the threaded end is stripped, and now will not hold back in place I think some one has replaced the original bolt with another, and an incorrect one at that. Does anyone have an engine stripped and could tell me the length and tread of the correct bolt?
Also does anyone have the original hand book to sell or maybe copy, Im happy to pay for the service.
Thanks again for your help
