I’ve been wearing glasses for a while, which now that I’m going to be wearing a helmet on the bike, poses the obvious question. As a condition on my licence to drive cars and trucks, I have to wear glasses. I'll have to do the same when I get my riders licence. I’ve seen enduro helmets with drop down viso...

right when it comes to riding clothing what would be best just ordinary textile jacket and pants or proper dedicated enduro riding gear, would the enduro stuff be more hard wearing for riding past bushes etc thanks

I was just wondering why the newer ttrs have 7 plates and the older ones have 6 are there any benefits from having 7 ?

Markvan · Markvan

I dont see chain tensioners on bikes anymore. My 1979 Yamaha TY 175 had one from the factory. Wondering why they have done away with them, is it because they have chain guides instead. Or maybe bikes these days have so much suspension travel that they wouldnt work and cause problems.

So long story short I have decided to sell my blue beauty, I'm going through the process of cleaning up and preparing everything for the next owner, I am however stuck on what the price should be, I have a 2001 with no mods. I am wondering what the average selling price is.

Hi people. I'm new here and looking to buy a ttr at the moment. One worry that I have is that I have nowhere to keep the bike apart on the street outside where I live.

Afternoon all, I ordered some E-07 tyres which i thought would be a good idea for pottering around the roads getting used to the (new to me) TTR and doing some gravel roads and the like as an intro to off road. Of course like a muppet I've missed, the now obvious, 'TL' in the tyre code. So the question is wi...
