i was out riding today and I took a decent fall on stone. My guard poped off and it looks like the clutch perch is pulling apart. I haven't looked closely at it before and dont know if it is bent or broken. Any of you know?

is lithium grease safe to use on the ttr250 chain. I work with several people who use lithium grease on their chains because it is so cheap. Would this harm the chain since it is an o-ring chain, does it work well, does it last long on the trails? Thanks

I was looking into purchasing a new shock before I sent mine off for rebuild and found this in the process. It's a different part number than the OE shock but looks identical. Figured I throw this out there for those that are dealing with shock issues. https://www.cmsnl.com/products/shock-absor...

I'm thinking of changing out the friction plates on my clutch. I'm pretty sure but not positive that the clutch plates for the WR250 are the same as the ones in the blue TTRs. Can anyone confirm that this is the case?

Hi my ttr rides ok but feels like I'm thrashing it at 55mph my rear sprocket is a 49 and my front is 13. I would like a little more top end speed for road use but would like it to still have power when needed too. What would you guy recommend? What are other people running on?

im looking into getting new side covers from a friend and he painted them. Would paint stripper damage the plastic or would it be fine? Also could power washing them take off the paint? Thanks.

Well i always wondered why the ttr250 only seemed to come out with one grab handle, and i always wanted another just to make it look symmetrical, much like my mates 600. So I managed to get my hands on one from a wreck and thought here's my opportunity. Well what i thought would be a 15 minute job max, turned...

Hi All As sprag clutches seem to be getting more expensive as the pound goes down the toilet, I would appreciate to know if any of you have fitted the ones from China?
