To widen your search, also look for a KDX 175 rear wheel. They are the same. I have had one on mine for many years.

Graham .... look at putting a cush drive rear wheel in. With all that HP on tap  ;D it will be playing havoc with the drive train.

Ha ha, its not the problem as u know its a Yamaha, its a rear brake problem the rear wheel is off something else and so is the brake plate so the shoes don't sit centered in the hub, the brake works but not overly strong, luck the rm125 front brakes are strong hey ;D

Yeah pal must have been just in front of you  :-* anywho enough of the pleasantries , I've had a word with a few of the lads and were happy to have a whip rd to buy you a proper MX bike until you get back on your feet and can afford your own  ;)

Stop wasting your benefit money with those girls trail bikes and take the offer of a proper bike  :) you might even enjoy it and stay on the same lap as the other slow buggers  ;)

So that would be even more embarrassing for you when you got beaten by an old bloke on a girlie trail bike,seems to me by watching the video may be a good DR 200 would suit you better Willy, hey may be that way you to could use that as an excuse for not doing to well :D
