So here we have my newest addition to the garage, a '01 'DT125LCR'

It's on a Q plate so i'm not sure when it was manufactured... but it's regd in 2001.

Gonna clean it up and piece it all back together again, and might buy an old 80s DT frame and steal the plate, rivet it on so i can have a uk registered one Wink

All the bits are there, i've just got to build it back together now.

Noticed the throttle and a couple other pieces are needing replaced but nothing too serious.

Engine runs but badly, so i'm replacing the rings to see how that changes things. bore and piston both look brand new so hopefully it's just the rings that need done.

Also, lol@paddockstand.

I need to get a stand for this one.

No more bikes getting nicked for me.

Only places my bikes get parked now are in the garage or in the secure underground car park at my work, in the secure bike cage in the secure underground car park Laughing

And it's alarmed.

And chained.

I can't afford to buy new bikes every month, i'm in debt now so i need to take care of them

Shouldn't be too long till it's running again. ordered new rings tonight so they should be here soonish.
