My friends ride WR 250's and CR 250x's. When we're scooting down a trail and come to a puddle, they can hit the throttle, lift the front, and skate over it without getting soaked. My TTR can't, and I always just have to plow through them. I just dropped down to a 12 tooth sprocket. It does give me more lift in...

Hello everyone! I'm about to have my barrel machined out for a +2mm OS wiseco kit. I was just curious if anyone could chime in on reliability thus far? I'll be running the stock liner.

Damn - just wrote out an entire 1000 words and lost it as it timed out. Aaaaaargh! Ah well, I shall begin anew. So planning on an oil cooler to a) increase oil capacity and cooling whilst b) being a tight bastard. Most oil cooler kits for bikes are ridiculously expensive. Most I've seen are more than $400...

Hi All, My question is does the silencer packing material in a muffler in any way affect the tuning and power output?

My friend kindly made me a bash guard with some aluminium he had lying about (old road sign). I am rather impressed with the finished product. Just thought I would share and wondered it anyone else had made one?

If an Acerbis tank for an XR will fit a TTR, will a standard XR tank fit too? I want a black tank for my project bike. A decent OE one is prooving tricky to find but if I can find a black plastic one, that might do the trick. Are they the same shape throughout the range (250, 400, 650...)? Ride safe, Simon.
