Brother Trev's TTR is getting more attention than my own! Trev had a nice old-fashioned looking analogue clock that he wanted fitting but we struggled to find somewhere appropriate that would take the fitting supplied. Final (until further notice!) position agreed as below

the chromed mirror arms on my 2011 model were going rusty due to chrome pitting caused by being struck by all manner of abrasive matter thrown up by motorway traffic. I had considered purchasing mirrors that had stainless steel arms. [ are they available ] but a thought struck me that heatshrink tubi...

I picked up my 2007 TTR250 a couple of days ago. It came with a Staintune with no baffle and not fitted to the bike. The PO found it to be too loud and no noticeable gain in power output. So , Im thinking about fitting the just TTRs shorty header, staintune and baffle. Does anybody here have that combo or si...

Meant to post this while rebuilding my TTR but forgot ( must be my age) I made a splash guard that fills the hole under the seat.

I'm not sure where to put this, so I'll stick it in here. Those of you running two sets of wheels, with different gear ratios, how do you do it? I would like a 14/48 on my road set and a 13/50 for my off-road set. Looking at the chain reference stickie, I would need a 110 link chain and a 108 link chain, two chai...

I read on here a while back (but can't find it now) that there's an extra power supply that can be utilized out of the TTR Cdi box. I'm looking to hook up a cigar lighter style power outlet to my bike to use for an air pump, charging phone, helmet cam, etc. do any of u guys know what steps I should take to wire it u...

Had anyone ever tried to create a navigation tower for the TTR to hold a few more instruments, GPS, roadbook etc? I quite like the idea of getting my nav computer and a roadbook mounted in a better way than cluttering up the handlebars and obstructing the speedo and idiot lights. Could also take the op...

hey men, you may care to google SPECO THOMAS 2015 catalogue and look up the new 520-10 tacho which is supposed to be suitable for a single cylinder 4 stroke. I bought the older model, which wasn't, back in may this year and had to send it back for a refund. I know they will fit on the handle bars because I trie...

I have been toying with the idea of having a genuine Yamaha suspension link made longer instead of buying an aftermarket part. the questions are 1. can it be done safely. 2. how can it be done. 3. how much would it cost. 4. who could modify it competently. 5. would it ever fail in use. 6. how much longer...

FYI, Just a heads up, I installed a the New FMF Q4 pipe yesterday on my 2003 US model TTR250. ( No restrictor in the header pipe). I bought the bike from a 70 year old guy and as far as I can tell the engine was completely stock. Had lots of additional nice goodies on it. The only thing I did a few months ag...

recently I received a set of 6mil bar spacers from totallyttr. whilst I was fitting them I noticed that the base of each lower bar clamp had " grown " around the clamp stud. this is a common problem when you pull down a bolt or stud that is screwed into aluminium, the thread wants to pull up as you...

I have always liked the KTM 640 ADVENTURE but the lack of engine and electrical system reliability made me have second thoughts. Two months ago, when a TTR 250 Raid came to my hands I decided to make this modification. I bought from a friend a tank, lights, fairing and seat from a not working KTM and after...

Any imfo would be great. WR tail pipe has to be lighter. Maybe less restrication. As soon as i get it i will post the weight of it. local muffler shop will modifiy mounts or anything needed.

Hello all, just looking to do a bit more dress-up for the bike now that she is running like a dream. Does anyone know of a source that supplies billet timing plugs preferably the color blue anodized. I haven't thought of measuring them myself, is there a changeover between some of the YZ__F models?

Hello, I have a question for the TTR community... I've got a blue tank TTR. It's a great bike, and I'm loving the bike for green laning with its smooth power and solid feel.

Hi All, Does anybody have an after market kit to upgrade the front brakes to a larger diameter front disk? I love my TTR, but the brakes are just not real good compared with a WR. In my opinion, they are just a bit weak. The front brakes of the TTR 2001 model have been a bit of a nuisance from day one. I cannot se...
