Covered in Dust 163 Posted June 14, 2011 Well I hadn't bought a bike for a couple of months so when this guy called me about a bike I looked at a couple of weeks ago and said he was now ready to deal I couldn't pass it up. I had a DT 125 when I was in hi school so I felt a little pull for it. I can't believe how small it is. Now that it's home I really don't know what to do with it. I might sell it, restore it, park it, or try and trade it for something else. Covered in Bikes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagstr 288 Posted June 14, 2011 Yum. That's fun. Suspension - 14" minus 3" = 11" shorter seat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrophyHunter 15 Posted June 14, 2011 Communicated on the same bike. He was "firm" on price then and I wanted a break since there are some paperwork challenges. Glad it went to a dedicated bike guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Covered in Dust 163 Posted June 14, 2011 I was a little worried about the paper work. But at the price I paid I'm pretty sure I could part the bike out and be well ahead. That's not really what I'd want to do just a last ditch plan. I can probably register it in AZ. without to much grief also. Chris Communicated on the same bike.

dstss 27 Posted June 14, 2011 I had one of those. My first motorcycle in fact. It was my sole source of transportation my first year in college. Brings back memories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carguy 1 Posted June 14, 2011 Had a DT250 and was thinking of getting another. Even the 250 was small next to the new bikes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 Posted June 14, 2011 I had the 175 and traded it in on a left over 400 at Boe`s Cycly Mart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N2TM 0 Posted June 14, 2011 Those were the hot bike, for a while, back in the day. Looks like yours has the electric starter armeture behind the left case. I used to machine down the armetures to lighten it up and it would rev like a CR125. Throw a 21" on the front and it will handle better in the dirt.....Duh. Traded one for a Winchester Model 94 rifle once. Looks clean. Have fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
