Wondering if anyone has noticed better milage with different fuels. Here in australia we have 91, 95 and 98 fuel but they all react differently. On my ducati 98 gives awesome power but i actually get better milage from the 95. I wonder if the 98 ive been running in the trr is doing the same. Anyone compar...

is it normal for fuel to drain out of the tube that leads to what looks like the float bowl when you tip the bike to the left about 45 degrees. i was lubing my chain and had the bike leaned over to make it easier to turn the rear wheel and noticed fuel leaking out.

Hi all, I'm after printing a couple of pages from the downloaded owners manual, but it says it is password protected, anyone shed some light on this? don't think the wife would be impressed if the laptop dissappeared into the garage for an oil change just being lazy and trying to safe myself having to w...

i am buying a new socket set, and would like to know the largest nut that is on a TTR so i can get a set that will service my bike without having to go parts shopping half way through something. also if the nut is metric or not would be great too. cheers.

Do you think you would notice a change from 47 to 48 rear sprocket? Just took the bike for a test ride with the 13:47 setup and she went well and still does over 110 km/h. Gearing commander says not much difference in top speed with a change to 48, but would there be a noticeable difference in down low resp...

Hi guys, Hope you had a good Christmas. I have been commuting through the snow over a moorland track on my TTR250 ('94 Raid), having a few slips trips and falls on the ice but never being let down by the bike yet. I recently changed my Sprag with parts I sourced from Partshark in America, I did it because I...

davecambo · davecambo

quick question, when riveting master links with a rivet tool (one i just ordered from America) how much do you rivet each pin? as in how wide should the rivet be after being pressed to confidently stop the link from failing. cant find anything on the net. would a mm increase in diameter be enough or too mu...

davecambo · davecambo

how big a sprocket can you go on the back before you have to alter/lower the chain guide (if thats what it is called) on the bottom of the swingarm at the back that the chain runs through? im thinking about running 14:50 or 52 setup.

hi all, i just finished putting on the 47 tooth rear sprocket. already had a 13 on the front. took her for a spin round the block and initialy thought that it may be too short in 1st gear. Any thoughts? reason i put the 47 on was too high top speed. wanted to reduce it a bit and gain more response down low. would...

Hi all, just doing an oil change and found the large 'o' ring around the filter housing has snapped, but can I find a replacement?, the two smaller ones have seen better days as well, but might be able to get these a little easier.
