I was looking at installing higher handlebars on my TTR and was comparing different bikes trying to find a suitable one. I can't find these parts new here and I can't get them delivered from outside, especially now that almost nobody is traveling to/from Europe, so this is the only alternative. I foun...

I never thought I would be posting something like this but Australian TTR250 owner Gavin Merchant lit up the Facebook "Yamaha TTR250 Riders" group when he posted this photo of his e-TTR alongside his standard bluey!

Do any of you guys run an Anderson plug on your bikes directly from the battery? If so where did you mount it? I'm thinking of putting one on my TTR. Reason being to be able to trickle charge the bike with out removing the plastics. Could also plug a mini jump starter pack in it or even a little 12v air compres...

I want to convert my busted digital speedo to mechanical unfortunately dt125 hardware are not locally available. What I can get is a TW200 head unit and drive gear. I can also get a drive gear for YBR125. If I'm not mistaken the drive gear on the TW200 and YBR125 are on the left side whereas the ttr250 has i...

Hey guys, I'm thinking about making my TTR Raid a Little bit less bulky, can I replace the big Raid side panels with those of the Open Enduro?

I just bought a very nice 2002 TTR250 in great shape and I was wondering if an aftermarket pipe would really help, or should I just open up the stock pipe? I don't mind spending a little money if it truly makes a difference, but I don't care about the weight reduction and appearance, etc. I would only wan...

Trying out a new back tyre for a run to Spain plus 5 days of rocky trails. My normal tyre for this has been a Heidenau K60, 130/80 x 18 but it's getting a bit worn out.

Hi, long time lurker. V. useful forum thanks for all the knowledge!

I thought I'd share my headlight upgrade as it has enabled me to ride safely at night around the dark lanes of Dartmoor and surrounding area. I didn't think to take photos of each step but hopefully this will help anyone who is interested. Everything was sourced from Ebay. I decided that I wanted a round...

Hi folks. Just need to pick someone's brains. I've bought a wheel from online. It's identical to this. I believe it's from a TTR230 not TTR250. The disc is smaller diameter. Can anyone clarify I really should have checked more before buying

Hi, mates; I got my "new" bike, TTR 250 blue / 2003 a few weeks ago. I couldn´t test her as my arm was injuried, but seemed to work nicely (1000 m high area).

Hi all; A few years has passed since I sold my loved EXC 300 and now back to mud. Quietly, so I got my 03 TTR. Very happy, but my physical condition now is lower.

There has been a lot of talk about the benefits of the shorty header pipe on the TTR , but all the evidence anecdotal from magazines and rider impressions. General consensus is a 2 hp gain with the shorty. That's decent, about 10 % on a TTR. Recently Kiwi Jeff offered his opinion on his shorty header af...

Hey guys! If I have blue TTR, and I want it to be white (plastics), would it be better to paint or wrap? As far as Iam concerned, the tank cant be wrapped, because it start to bubble after time. Is it possible to get a nice matt white finish at home? The frame would be painted by professionals. Does anyone...
