Yeh thinking I will try a auto retrimmer. The bars look great but why so cheap??? Sent from my GT-I9100T using Tapatalk 2

Hey Gooseman, where do you ride? Will probably just take the DS on a few family properties etc, just want a fun reliable little banger for occasional blast at Appin/Pacific Park in NSW. And apologies pics are below, got any of yours??

Hey Guys, Rather than keeping a 5 year old thread going from somebody else, I'll start my own. On Sunday I picked up a 1991 DS80. Overall general condition is average/poor. How she is now... The front headlight/numberplate/shroud are missing and have been replaced at some stage by the...

Sorry my67xr, will do that now, just found some of the earlier info on this thread useful and from memory posed a question that got a response and didn't really want to go reinventing the wheel (no pun intended).

Hey guys started scraping back my plastics tonight, not sure what to make of this, rear fender, left and right guards are same almost fluro yellow colour, front fender and gas tank almost like the older dull yellow from the 80's. I start scrapping back the front fender and the "paint" literally...

Thumpin I like your thinking, wonder how hard it would be to swap from ds to rm forks??

Hi DHZ, would the gold rim fit my '91 DS80? Front wheel is 1.40 x 14 from memory and rear is 1.60 x 12, don't have that size too do you? Thanks!

I wonder if the JR80 would be a better fit? Seems like the frame is almost the same between JR and DS?

Thumpin mate you are a living legend! Wonder if the fender will fit, the one on mine is pretty stuffed. Picked the bike up today few quick runs she goes alright, idles a little high but that can be fixed, shes pretty rough but I'll change that :)

Hey guys, don't wanna hijack the thread but I found this pic of a nice '91 model showing a obviously non genuine number plate, any ideas what it is as I wouldn't mind fitting it to mine, cheers! http://www.bikepics.com/pictures/1809191/

From some info I found on the bet the FMF Powercore 2 and fatty pipe from a JR80 apparently is a direct bolt up fit for the DS80... I'm gonna order to try it out

Hey mate you certainly are a wealth of info, thx :) Have tried locally but cost a bomb, find a part etc no luck either, the 2000 model one on fleabay looks nice.

Hi Guys, I know some of the DS80 and RM80 parts are interchangeable, this one is a bit different, I'm having heaps of trouble finding a decent seat, I know the part no's are different but does anyone know if the dimensions would allow the RM80 seat to fit the DS80???
