I'm getting new tires on my 04 TTR. I got it earlier this year, had worn tires, but I just got around to getting new tires. This was my first time removing both front and rear wheels. The manual just says "remove front axle". It didn't say HOW that works, I figured it must turn out like a bolt, so I got th...

Hi,I have just bought a 1995 TTR250R. Battery has gone flat. I think it’s knackered.

The positi...

The starter has been acting up for a while. Needing rocking in gear then would work. Took it apart and found sticky brushes. Now replaced from Steve. Quite a simple and worthwhile job. Slightly confusing is that the headlight is now brighter????
