Thanks very much! Will do, planning to take it off road soon and store it. I don't use it and selling it would be pointless. Quick restore and it should be a nice shelf ornament for a few years
about 3k , its doing fine thanks, recently had a rebuild due to a crappy crank but it looks pretty much like it does in the video mainly because I hardly use it and I look after it
well done mate nice bike thinking of getting the newer model dtr(2006) myself and this is just made me want it even more wicked custome job mate powder coated tank and fram is a mint touch
Very kind of you,i just offered more as a token of appreciation,as I have no leads as to where to get the cover. I though of buying an YZ or some other,but there's a big chance it would come out short since DT has a biiiiiiig seat.
No mate I sold this bike maybe a year ago now, I stopped using it after a while and the choice was bring it back inside and store it or get rid of it. I didn't have the space so got rid of it
The way it looked at the start (standard) I have that exact bike, same year but in green and black, could never do something like this to it, for that money you may as well buy a new bike ^^ but I must say the final piece looks amazing
Got ya. I cant get the bearings or collars out on my swingarm anyway and i destroyed the oil seals on removal.Ordered new seals but everything else can stay in there.
I got the seat cover from a car upholstery shop, usually at the back of some industrial estate. Try places like that before spending loads in a shop. It cost me £15 fir enough material to do at least 4 seats
Sick bike fella very nice work you did right there !! I'm looking to get get a new-ish dt125r sm very soon ! I been saving for quite a while now .. CANT WAIT TO GET MY HANDS ON ONE ;D
That a amazing transformation. Iv got the same model dtr that has been converted to a supermoto , where do you get those fork sleeve things to replace the gator ? As they look a lot tidier
THanks,I have like a million questions for you,I need to rebuild my DT as well,so next one. Where did you get the non slip (gripper seat) for it? I can only find the YZ,KX ETC ones,I don't know if they would be big enough
My DT does about 120 miles to the tank. Cost about £15 to fill the tank nowadays. Was a tenner when I first got it. It is a two stroke so it's going to be a little bit more to run but £15 a week is nothing.
Yeah man you bolt the bottom adaptor to the yoke, then the top adaptor over the bars. When you order them make sure they have the correct size for your bike
@HaztaUK I have on my bike. I've got USD's on my bike with rs125 wheels on. But seiki's used the wheels that come off the yamaha dt125x. So as long as he's got the spacers for it it all fits. It's the easiest supermoto conversion you can do. Ranging to probably almos anything. So long as you know what you're doing.
Swingarm is powdercoated, I was just saying it costs more by doing that cause you have to replace all the bearings, which in the long run is good though. No point in powdercaoting the shock tbh. Engine is better left alone as it gets hot and dirty too easily. Good luck with the build
I got t from a local car upholstery place. You usually find them in the back of Industrial Estates. I just used shit loads of staples but you can use glue too
is it a special name for those plastic, front, side, rear fenders? can't find them at ebay. can i take some from a yamaha yz 450 and place it on the dt? the seat, did you made it yourself or came it along? your bike looks so cool, i want to do it myself like yours :P
The seat is some kind of rubber, id be lying if I said I knew exactly what type of material it was. The spokes I got from Hagon wheels and they came to £122 as they were stainless steel, 4 yeras on and still no sign of rust or corrosion. You can powdercoat it, it was more a warning that it will cost a bit to put it back together (bearing etc that only Yamaha make)
The plastics are called HPires, I just looked on ebay and can't find them anymore. The YZ plastic will need modding to fit the DT, it won't fit straight on. I made the seat myself, its pretty easy
Dude !!! amazing !!!! what are the plastics you are using ? and the seat ? looks so much better than the oldschool look and Quasimodo seat the original bike got.
iirc the plastics were from Portugal and the seat was an original one i just trimmed down a recovered the make it a bit more slimline to match the rear fender, thanks!
this is verry nicely done better then new one of a kind dt i also ride the 125 re love the bike own i t for about 4 years now ps you still have your bike after all this work ??
How did you manage with the rims? I am trying to convert 89 dt200 to a supermoto. Please tell me where you found the rims, did you respoke them yourself(and used stock hubs)?
very nice job lovely bike, ive got 3 x kmx200s rebuilt 1 of them not quite to your standard, 1st rebuild, id love to fit fat bars to it, in your video where you fit the bars, it looks like the fat bar clamps, bolt on top of standard bottom handbar clamps, if you can follow that, cheers kmx|Gary
Thanks for the link.Much appreciated. I see that you switched out the rims to super moto type and respoked the original trail type hubs. Where did you get the rims? Are they from the dt125x sm?
what did u use to thinning down the back of the seat??? i tryed it and runined my seat, gettin another seat so don't want to mess it up a second time?? thanks
Hey Mugensieki I want to do a project like you already have the bike just wanted some help with some of the parts and plastics you used that would a huge help thanks
+William Costa I'm not sure now mate this was so long ago. Try Portugal for DT parts, they know their stuff and will almost certainly have this fender somewhere
Very good job guy!! congratultion ;)
That is one beautiful restoration job, congrats :) Keep those old two-strokes alive - the world will thank you one day ! Loved the music BTW :D
Thanks very much! Will do, planning to take it off road soon and store it. I don't use it and selling it would be pointless. Quick restore and it should be a nice shelf ornament for a few years
MugensiekiYes please continue the dt story
Mugensieki I'd ride the wheels off it and keep it looking and feeling good, but hey I understand your choice - and a fine ornament it is :)
@@Thabronx_965 how long did it take to restore it? How many hours?
Video 6 years old and im still amazed with what you've done!
+Pizdzirynka1 damn only feels like 3, still on same tyres lol
The best tuning story of a Yamaha dt I had ever see nice bike ! :)
best project ever seen !
Ghaith Briki garage
WOW ! Amazing job ! Your project is a best in the world 😉! Congratulations from France .
That is the coolest dt125r I have ever seen! Great Job!
Amazing work bro !
Nice job man! The most beautiful dt125r!
You have to use the DTX forks with them so you can fit the big brake conversion. Easy to do once you get the parts. The swingarm doesn't need changing
this is just beautifull. have a dt 125 from 99 myself. and am converting it to a supermoto. congrats man. awesome vid
bootsmanaa btw . what did you do with the engine? thnks
bootsmanaa Thanks a lot, the engine was rebuilt a couple times and is currently in the bike, same one from 88 but with a few new bits inside.
about 3k , its doing fine thanks, recently had a rebuild due to a crappy crank but it looks pretty much like it does in the video mainly because I hardly use it and I look after it
This bike is a dream , absolutely AMAZING, YOU ARE A GOD ! xD
well done mate nice bike thinking of getting the newer model dtr(2006) myself and this is just made me want it even more wicked custome job mate powder coated tank and fram is a mint touch

I though of buying an YZ or some other,but there's a big chance it would come out short since DT has a biiiiiiig seat.
wow thats great, did you need wider forks for the super moto tyres ? or did they fit with the standard forks?
fantastically done unbelievable attention and care well done
Very nice job indeed. Looks gorgeous!
You gave that bike a new life. Amazing job !!
Love it! Nicest DT i have saw by far
Been there before mate when i did my supermoto. You done a lovely job there pal nice work fella.
I remember this on BCF! Can't believe it was nine years ago! It was an awesome project I wonder if it's still going?
No mate I sold this bike maybe a year ago now, I stopped using it after a while and the choice was bring it back inside and store it or get rid of it. I didn't have the space so got rid of it

I love what you done to the bike, it looks good as new. :)
Bro i can say u a very good enginer and video sound maker too, u great follow your instintc, peace.

what a job uve done great looking bike wish i had 1 i got 1700 and duno what bikel be best to buy can only have 125 though
that was awesome, my good sir you are a genius!!!!
I cant believe that this guy still responds even after 10 years.
It's an old channel I dont use now, my son uses it but every once in a while I check in
yea i know it does need some work like the shift lever sticks and the carb defiantly needs a cleaning but she runs good
Why not powdercoar swingarm? I did mine and it holds for 3 years in toughest terrain.
Pretty awesome job i have to say.. Im shocked on how good it looks!!!
best looking DT 125 R i have ever seen :)
Good job :P
Im not going to lie, you got skills and good taste bro that bike looks fucking sick!
Well done
Yeah man you bolt the bottom adaptor to the yoke, then the top adaptor over the bars. When you order them make sure they have the correct size for your bike
Then that Yamaha dt 125 was made in? It will be great if you show us how you ride that bike.

Nice. What model rims are those? Do you know where to buy a new ring of plastics?
what what ..? so this is a beautiful work .. beautiful transformation'm waiting too :D NICE
I got t from a local car upholstery place. You usually find them in the back of Industrial Estates. I just used shit loads of staples but you can use glue too
did you have a service/repair manual to help? im looking for that?nice video.
is it a special name for those plastic, front, side, rear fenders? can't find them at ebay. can i take some from a yamaha yz 450 and place it on the dt? the seat, did you made it yourself or came it along? your bike looks so cool, i want to do it myself like yours :P

What was the ASV Lever supposed to fit? Is it just a YZ one?, Going for the gold lever myself!
You did a fantastic job with that bike.
I see you're still talking, now it's 2024, I'm watching this video and I'm wondering where you got the rear fender, what engine model is it from
1:33 69 ;p
lol ty for heart XD
It's been 4 years lol
@@tomtellem haha yea
Yeah they are shorter but not that much, they only drop the front which actually helps the rear look a lot higher.
Nice machine mate well done
Also did you cut those side panels down ? Or did you buy them like that ?
hi mate where did you get the seat upholstery from i want to re trim my seat and did you use glue and staples to re do it
why not have a swing arm powder coated,I've just got my dt's swingarm powder coated and it's good ??????
Dude !!! amazing !!!! what are the plastics you are using ? and the seat ? looks so much better than the oldschool look and Quasimodo seat the original bike got.

Totaly awesome mate well done ;)
Sick bike man dosent look like a dt ha I'm thinking of doing my 96 dtr turning it into an SM was wondering were you got them wheels from?
Lovely dt! But I think if you kept the original light , and got a dt sticker set , it would be a lot nicer I think.
Where did you get all your stainless bolts?
Nice Bike, which side panels?
Hello. I also have a Dt and I love your back side plastics. Did you buy or just cut it somewhere?
I just cut them
@@Thabronx_965 Ok. Thanks
this is verry nicely done
better then new
one of a kind dt
i also ride the 125 re
love the bike own i t for about 4 years now
ps you still have your bike after all this work ??
That's will always be 1 sick tool !!
that is NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE!!, maybe a few vids of it ripping around?
wow! awesome job. I have the same bike, but I don't know what to do with it. I'm sure you spent a lot with that bike.
CRAZY restore! really good job man :)
very nice, i only hate that it's completly white , but it's your bike :D, and i really love the rims :D
is that less expensiv rather then buying a newer DT? cause it looks like you only used the engine and and the basic frame.
What was the coating you used for the rear swingarm?
Mine is in an awful state.
how long you worked on it? I have to admit otherwise beautiful
did a good job of that mate well done
have you tuned the engine??
How did you manage with the rims? I am trying to convert 89 dt200 to a supermoto. Please tell me where you found the rims, did you respoke them yourself(and used stock hubs)?
These were from a DTX and DTX hubs, I respoked them with SS spokes
How did you adapt the caliper bracket for a bigger disc???
@@jasonfaulkner6528 DTX forks
very nice job lovely bike, ive got 3 x kmx200s rebuilt 1 of them not quite to your standard, 1st rebuild, id love to fit fat bars to it, in your video where you fit the bars, it looks like the fat bar clamps, bolt on top of standard bottom handbar clamps, if you can follow that, cheers kmx|Gary
What is the name of that seat fabric? What spokes are thoes and how much did you pay for them? Why can't you powder coat the rear swingarm?
One more question. Ive taken off the swingarm from my 2007 dt125re today. Its got a few rust areas. Why do you not advise to powdercoat the swingarm?
Thanks for the link.Much appreciated.
I see that you switched out the rims to super moto type and respoked the original trail type hubs. Where did you get the rims? Are they from the dt125x sm?
I had/have paperwork just fine, it only becomes tricky when dealing with insurance
How much do you have sold for all ?:D i want that to:D
what did u use to thinning down the back of the seat??? i tryed it and runined my seat, gettin another seat so don't want to mess it up a second time?? thanks
very very nice bike fella! Just wondering where on earth I could find a rear mudguard like that, I googled and eBayed it and couldn't find it 0o
Did you buy new fork or just removed the rubber?
Hey Mugensieki I want to do a project like you already have the bike just wanted some help with some of the parts and plastics you used that would a huge help thanks
sure what's up?
Ive tried searching Ebay for one of these rear fenders but HPires does not appear to be on Ebay anymore.
+Mugensieki how did you fit the polisport head light?
Gran restauracion me gusto como quedo la maquina ahora a rodar...
Looks great :)
What´s your exhaust?
what wheels are they? looks so smart
Hello, how many time you ought he to finish the motorcycle ?
where did you buy that plastic? 3:49
i tryed this name on ebay but i couldn't find anything.. i tryed Hpires fender but nothing.. can u help me?
+William Costa I'm not sure now mate this was so long ago. Try Portugal for DT parts, they know their stuff and will almost certainly have this fender somewhere
+Mugensieki thanx :)

@aL3410 wheels are from a DTX125 an, good luck with the build !
hey man..nicw work..I am amazed...I want a dt to rebuilt to..how much did this cost to u?
