I bought that unregistered import from eBay!
(Preview)
Okay so just before Christmas I bought this important raid from DK. After a bit of faff getting it registered, partly because I needed to ride it for its test and guess what? It didn't run properly. After much fannying about with the carb, I was about to take it down the garage this afternoon when I though...

New 1994 raid owner
(Preview)
Hi all! I’ve recently purchased a 1994 raid that needs nurturing back to life after sitting around for a number of years. I’m pretty impressed so far to be honest, it runs and despite sitting around it’s not particularly rusty. So far I’ve overhauled the brakes ( the fluid in the front master cylinde...

New Raid in North East

Hi all, Recently picked up a very original 96 Raid from a nice chap down in Wales. First taste of a TTR250 (TT250R?) and loved every bit of the couple of hundred Km I've so far done. It will generally spend its lift pottering on the lanes of the North York moors although I am keen to put it through its paces i...

Hi from SA! Been lurking on here for a while, however I never joined until I finally bought the bike.

I then found myself in a mining town...

New owner of a TTR-250 here

Hello there, I am the proud new owner of a 2000 TTR-250. Well, I actually purchased it as a gift for my son. He's been getting excellent grades at school and excelling at sports as well so I thought this would be a great way to reward him for all his hard work. Even though his friends ride (much) newer machin...

This is my first kick at anything dirt or dual-sport after years of standards, nakeds, cruisers and sport-tourers.

Feels like a 2nd coming, what with Covid and long awaited surgery I’ve had minimum TTRing or big yin outings. The surgery complete 2.5 weeks ago, (no details, it would make your eyes water) and recovery going well, in 1.5 weeks I hope to be climbing aboard wee yin, stand by for some short ride reports.
