just got off the phone with a stockist for fmf here in Australia who said he wasnt sure if adding a fmf powercore 4 slip on would give any improvement other than weight saving. can anyone on this forum that has replaced the muffler only, ie - kept the original header pipe, tell me if there was increase in p...

Has anybody seen a yoshimura RS 3 full system exhaust fitted on a ttr before, if any body has an experience with it or if there is a full system that is better for the ttr, I don't mind if it was little bit loud. -- Edited by Abbas on Saturday 7th of January 2012 01:30:43 PM

The pics are for Valkman who is looking to improve the rear footpegs on his OE. I can't find a decent pic showing the pegs fitted. Can a Raid owner help out please?

came accross the brand Lexx exhausts. they are quite cheap here in australia. 270 dollars. Just wondering how they would compare to fmf or similar.

as the title suggests, i messed with my mixture on the carb and now it goes a bit like a pig. I tired the whole thing of warming it up, then adjusting the idle speed to a little higher, then turning the mixture to the right until it almost conks out, then turning it to the left till it sounds better, but while r...

Why run around with a bare rear suspension reservoir? If you loosen the hose clips and free the reservoir you CAN wrap a cover round it. You CAN also drink the contents before cutting the CAN as required.

gday guys, just thought i would ask people what options i have for adding a better exhaust system to the TTR250. I have a 2011 model, and noticed that there are lots of FMF exhausts on ebay, but they all say they fit models up to 2006. will these fit the 2011 model also? If so, what can i expect from an exhaust...

Now I have seen a rather fancy all singing and dancing Bash plate/ sump guard on recent trip to TTR Towers, but wondered if any other guards fit (have seen an XT500 guard going cheap) has anyone had any joy with other OEM gaurds fitting, or being easily adapted? Piccies always a bonus.

Many thanks to Igor for finding the Web Cam site - see here http://www.webcamshafts.com/ They offer two different camshaft sets as shown below. Anyone heard of the company or tried their camshafts?

I seem to be dribbling oil out from near the starter motor on my white raid model, is there a common failure point somewhere round there? It's not the output shaft seal. There's no severe bang from the sprag clutch when i stop the bike. Hope someone can advise! Thanks Mark

Hi Don't suppose anyone knows the intervals for a oil and filter change on a TTR air cooled 2003 model? Also the capacity of engine oil it holds ? Any help would be great :) Thanks Dan

A friend wants to know if anyone knows how to lower the TTR 3-4". He has installed a Kubalink, but this device seems to have lowered it less than an inch.

A new year, but a few jobs were required to get the bike fit for use. First off was a filter and oil change. I bought a 5 litre bottle of Motul 5100 semi synthetc ester oil 10w-40 and got 10% TRF discount also. I know 5 litres is a tad much and the oil is considered too good for TTRs, but it's exactly what I use in t...

Hey everyone I was just wondering if someone would be kind enough to explain how the jetting works, and how to rejet. I have a blue 2000 ttr with what I asume to be stock jets. I have installed an aftermarket exhaust and I think it's running a bit rich. How ever I have no clue about jetting. Thanks Aidan

Hi all, had my first big blast on new bike, and just wondering how my old raid compares to other TTR's out there, now I took it over Exmoor and up Porlock Hill (steep and a little cheeky if your not familiar with it) and made it up and down without issue. I have to work the box a lot more than any other bike I've h...

I am asking onn behalf of a good friend, who also has a TTR 250. He can't get the starter to turn over, even though the the battery is charged. This problem just seemed to happen without warning. Any ideas as to what he might do to solve this problem?
