Jay, Iain???? Go on you both want it ;D I'm thinking about it but I just bought a YZ-A cylinder so I'm not sure I need it. Good price and free internal shipping is a good deal.

Jesus Christ Firko....the amount of DT2MX stuff that's out there is amazing.....I'm bloody tempted to get one for myself as I think they are a pretty bike and Yam's first MXer....next thing you'll know I'll have a DT1 or RT1 then they will be calling me "little Firko"....your brain washing is starting to take hold.

I have no DT-1/DT-2 stuff anymore.  Black DT-2MX tank is headed South of the Equator as we type.  I switched to RT-1MX/RT2MX last year.

I did just pick up an NOS RT-2MX Cylinder today though.  ;D

I emailed the guy about postage to Victoria he has replied its going to cost $155us to send it but he'll do barrel & head for for $250us with postage but he said in his email
"Now here's the problem... I don't do pay pal... You can mail me U.S. cash. Or mail me a Western Union money order in U.S. funds. You could wire it.. But they want a kings ransom"
so my problem is how do I pay for it not many other options here or is he just scamming me..

Mav  be careful anyone after cash or Weston union is a no go with me .I only paid $50 odd for postage for the same combination cyl and head .  You can count me out on DT2MX and RT2MX stuff now Ive got my matching pair , but if  another one comes along who's to say I might got tempted . Iain

$155 is over twice the shipping I've paid in the past. The big problem is however is his not doing PayPal. Unless you know someone that you've got a trusting relationship with that can buy it for you, you're up shit creek. Western Union is a no no too.

Wise words from two Yamaha gurus who have previous experience in these deals I might pass on this one as I smell a rat as well cheers Andrew
