I bought my son, a TTR-250 2001 model. He is 6'3 and the previous owner was 5' nothing. He had cut most of the foam out of the seat and the vinyl seat cover had perished. So I bought some foam and Vinyl from Clark Rubber in Sydney. The foam was cheap because in was an off cut. I had to glue two pieces together...

I have just stripped an old OE with the intention of blasting & then powder coating. Over the last 2 weeks I have been tormented with colour choice as I see that the "purple" is so very hard to match, either powder or regular paint. I see Brian has put a lot of research & work into this (and many othe...

Hi. Thought I'd show you some pics of my coronavirus tinkering. Since I can't ride the trails I thought it an excellent opportunity to stop the rust taking over the back of my TTR.

Well, I am considering swapping the rear suspension and swing arms on my Raid and my standard TTR. I understand that the aluminum swing arm has a longer bolt. Not sure just which bolt.

I bought a TTR a while ago that had been standing unused and unloved in salty sea air next to the Somerset coast for over 10 years. It certainly showed all the signs of neglect as you will see from the photos! All the plating has eroded leaving the fasteners rusty and, I am guessing, nicely seized into posi...

Having read Punkawalla's thread, I decided to do the conversion.
