So, I finally managed to get the bike and engine (not together) back home and started on fixing the hea...

Hello, new member Watts here, just purchased my friends TTR off him after checking it out.

Hi all, Just joined the forum, got a new (to me) 2011 TTR250. It's a nice day, only a little snow on the tops, so went for my first ride on the bike. Great fun. The road can be seen in the background and the TTR is perfect for this. Great forum, thanks for all the great information. Iain
