Hi guys, I am not very happy because I hardly can find anything on the internet for my 1995 Open Enduro. I hope I won't regret buying this old bike. There are parts for later models (1999 upwards) but nothing for old TTRs. My question is are the fork gaiters the same on '99-08 models as on my 1995's? Could I...

Every ad I see for a TTR oil pump includes a little semicircular tin guard. Every engine I have opened up has had no such guard fitted Is someone taking them off before I get in there or were they not always fitted? This is my experience on both pre and post Y2K engines. Not sure of the purpose exactly - can an...

Hello everyone! I have had my TTR for a couple of months now, but haven't really got to ride her much. I seized the opportunity last weekend however to get a decent ride in for the first time.

My old man had a box of motul 7100 10w40 leak through his truck today and the company told him to throw it out but he decided to pass it on to me (thank's mate).
