The end of the DT500 was the reduction of the carb size to 34mm, they were thirsty engines and worked well with bigger size carbs 

You will obv know better than most, but didn't the ever quieter silencers brought in over the years also cause the DT500 JAWA 4v to overheat, think Olsen complained unsucesfully to the (then) BSPA & SCB about that. (Sorry to hi-jack thread it's about respecting Graham Drury)....

Had a DT500 on the Grass with a 38mm Mikuni, bought from Stefan Salomonnson (Wimbledon). Fastest engine I ever had, much better than I was. Nowhere near the same with a smaller carb.
