DT200WR intro from waaay down south

[axel-oz]

Hi everyone, first post, new here.

Have been around here reading on occasion. I'm in Australia, not sure if you guys have many or any members from this part of the world. I scored a free DT200WR '92 (WR200 here) at the start of the year. Have been restoring it back to usable condition on and off since then and now ride it amongst the trees on occasion.

I'll throw some pics up for you all.

I know this bike is quite old (I ride new KTMs as a main ride) but notice that you guys seem to be still riding them which is great.

My aim is to learn about what mods and problems you guys have come across in the past. I'm also keen on obtaining aftermarket items that aren't available to us here anymore. In particular, graphics kits etc. As you can see from the pics - very bland. Not sure how I'll go, but G'day to you all nonetheless!

 

Before .... and after!
