NOoooooo - ya gotta keep the original DT1 shape tank - and colours (al la Firko).As much as I love your new DT1 project Iain, I have to agree with Graeme. The DT1 Yamaha's aura centres on its unique tank shape. If you remove that distinctive lump of mild steel the bike becomes 'just another dirt bike', unrecognisable from any other old bike.
What rear guards you using ?? vandy or iain......MCS mini mudder.
about $30 bucks from the local bike shop
if they let you look through the MCS cataloge, you'll be able to work out the correct model/name/number for them.
i believe they used to be available in quite a few colours but may only be white now.
thats whats on the back of my blue one as picture by the pic hoarding Graeme ;D & should bolt straight onto that frame i did for you Freaky.
I'm open to ideas for the front guardhttp://shop.ebay.com.au/mdracingproducts/m.html?_nkw=UFO+UNIVERSAL+VINTAGE+FRONT+FENDER+1960-1974&_sacat=0&_odkw=&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3911.c0.m270.l1313 ;)

Its 8 weeks to the Nats

Mark the badges are first rate , The price inc post was very good arrived 6 days after order . IainMy tank badges finally arrived yesterday Iain and while they're nothing like the OEM quality, they're good for a racer. I'm happy now ;D.
Angle a bit out on the top shock mounts.if your talking about the width at the top shock mounts, then it'd be about 15~20mm narrower than stock in order to fit the MX type seat.
Vandy, any idea how much has the rear rail came in ? so i can compensate or figure out a straighten up plan.
No probs Nev....I've got access to an old Webco kit so I'll make an effort to borrow and copy it. It might take a while but I'll announce it on here when they're up and running.
