Hi guys!

So I started riding the DT125R properly yesterday after passing my CBT training.

I've noticed that the temperature needle doesn't come out of the red area after using the bike for 5 or 10 minutes and casually moves about a millimeter either way from it's original position in the red. The bike doesn't show any signs of overheating or that it's getting too hot.

I'm thinking dodgy temp sensor or is this a normal operating temperature? I'll get a picture of what I mean later on.

Also, the bike will sometimes cut out at the lights and almost always if I slow down through the gears with the clutch in from speed..

Cheers Smile
