I really like my 2005 TTR250, it was the one bike I have always regretted not buying new when I had the chance. I bought this one 3 years ago having run a TT600RE for quite a few years, I ran them both for while whilst deciding which one to keep. For me, the 250 was the clear winner, lighter, 6 gears, better on t...

Hi there, Has anyone found a source for replacement springs with alternative spring rates or succesfully revalved the forks? I have read that the internals from the wr250r are a good upgrade? -- Edited by dlee22 on Tuesday 13th of July 2021 12:14:32 PM

Hello everyone. Finally I found a bike I wanted. It's arriving in few days. Things I will need to sort first is mirrors - the bike don't have any. As my budget is tight, Double Take is not an option, and perhaps not a necessity for now - mainly it will be thumping on paved roads. Anyone had good success w...

Hi all, not really a modification but fairly rare for a ttr250... My ttr250 came with a decompression lever etc but i removed it due to the fact it leaked. I would like to use my kick starter more often however its typically stated on here that it does not turn the engine over quick enough to be really eff...

Talking to a friend of mine the other day we discussed why the majority of bikes have cable operated clutches. He rides trials and his Montesa (Honda engine) has an hydraulic clutch and it is much lighter than a cable one even when we'll lubricated. Anyone any thoughts please?

The original front line on my '94 OE was bulging slightly under pressure near the bottom banjo so I ordered a replacement braided line from ebay listed as 'TTR250 1994 front brake line'. The first line that came through the post was a rear line which I returned and re-ordered a front. I've tried fitting...

Hello good night, I recently bought a ttr 250 blue from 2003. I am delighted with the bike but it is not very good and they tell me that it must have some cap on the exhaust pipe, someone would give me a link on how to remove that cap so that it bike go better. Thank you.

In this configuration it was nice and strong and previously ran 21.5 hp on the dyno. (Up from 17.5hp). Changing just to the Totally TTR's shorty head...

Hi All I have the TTR250 with the factory GYTR muffler.. I didn't mind the noise till I bought my son the same bike, however his has the White Brothers E-Series muffler. This is so much quieter.

I just bought a very nice 2002 TTR250 in great shape and I was wondering if an aftermarket pipe would really help, or should I just open up the stock pipe?

Hi folks. Just need to pick someone's brains. I've bought a wheel from online. It's identical to this. I believe it's from a TTR230 not TTR250. The disc is smaller diameter. Can anyone clarify I really should have checked more before buying
