[QUOTE="Psyco Diver 69, post: 168303, member: 19422"] I bet some of you were wondering when I was going to find this post. First I have my bike lightened up to less than 200lb. I also never felt the suspension bottom. I have taken this bike over 30' table tops and over shot and cased a few time and never felt it bottom. Currently I have a 1980 MX motor and exhaust in it and for those who don't know a MX was a more tuned out bike, it was lighter and quicker than the DT but it didn't really have the top speed of the it. I also get about 1 and a half hours to 2 hours for every gallon of gas, plenty impressive for the old girl. I'll also tell you this bike is industuctible and I have played plenty of tree ping pong and the bike just keeps running. I even have the same piston I've been running for the last 3 years, I never did a top end rebuild because I never had to (compression is still normal) I've beaten plenty of bikes any wheres from MX125s to 250s to KDXs and XRs, I've been also beaten by them (especially those darn KTM200 EXCs those things are a hand full to beat even with a amature riding one). I'm not sure about the newer DTs but mine rocks and I'm proud to own one, ask anyone that owns or has owned a late 70s to mid 80s DT these bikes were the best in off road bikes for there time and still are.
