just wanted to post as looknig at getting TTR after advice from a friend, had DRZ recently, KDX220, CRM 250 etc etc but like the look of the TTR. I will be occasionally green laning in Cumbria and some commuting, 5 miles a day max.
Will the bike be good for this and why should I buy one guys??? Got an 04 lined up for £1300 with 19k on, mileage puts me off but it has a massive amount of receipts and loved and cared for.
Hi, I have a 2005 ttr which I now use to commute 12 miles a day, it is great on fuel and goes great on the road, having steering lock and indicators etc is great too! Off road the bike will do the job but does not give you that adrenalin rush when you crack open the throttle but at the end of the day it's a dual purpose bike. I have 2 sets of wheels as I find the knobblys drag far to much on the road and slow the bike down. The bikes are fairly bullet proof apart from the sprag clutch problem which could end up costing over £300 so it's worth asking if that has been replaced. Adam.
