remembering how it goes together..
(Preview)
So I am putting the TTR back on the road... must be 5 years since I pulled it apart and rewired it for a dirt only bike... just ordered a trail tech speedo... as the YZF front end has no speedo drive.. wondering if I can use the temp gauge in it for oil temp... and will remove the Rekluse clutch.. ..

exhaust upgrades, worth it?
(Preview)
Well, a new bike isn't in the future, so thinking about upgrading parts of the TTR. Are exhaust mods worth the price? Do you get real performance gains, or is it just noise? Looking at the shorty header from totallyttrs, and a new either FMF or Pro Circuit silencer.
