Since it seems to be a common problem to break the float pin support mount on the TTR carburetors i thought i would add this simple fix to the problem.Thanks for reading, Cheers. The hole into the float pin support mount must be drilled on a slight angle so it does'nt hit the needle seat mount (pictured...

Hi to all . I have a 93 Japan grey import in Greece (yes we are still alive and kickin) and I looking to restore my carb. I have found this page for anyone who is intersted. My problem is that they list models from 1999 to 2006. For all the parts they show total compatibility to all years models, EXCEPT the mai...

had enough of the TTR carb leaking fuel... Time to put the 32mm flat slide on... the carb is 12mm shorter the the TTR carb so will make a 12mm thick block to go between the head & manifold that will move the carb/manifold back 12mm to get the inlet into the air boot... put a 42 pilot & 50 main jet in it...

After breaking a couple of shafts (they are only made of brass) in the past trying to free a seized choke I decided to try a different approach today and it worked so I thought I would share it. I firstly took the top off the carb to see if there was any way of freeing it from inside but I don't believe there is...

I have tried my hand (Trish's actually!) at doing a couple of video tutorials to help owners removing and replacing their carb for the first time.

The forum seems to replicate owners problems on my own bikes somehow This time the problem was a rounded out drain screw on a carb. I drilled out the damaged screw with a 3mm drill and then extracted it with a 3.5mm extractor. The new drain screw is part number 14T-14104-00 - available here Job done! B...

Hi Folks, looks like my bike has developed a misfire on part throttle, the first part. Starts OK, always has and I’ve not had this before. I usually turn the fuel off and let the float bowl empty after a ride as the bike can stand for a while not being used. Not good, I know ! I had a look at the float bowl drain s...

Hi, I ordered an all balls carb kit and a diaphragm for the accelerator pump from the marvellous Totally TTR's.

New to me 2003 TTR250, the carb slide is sticking half way open periodically. After some reading I understand the coating on the side starts to fail, which is the likely cause of this? Does anyone know if I can just buy a new slide? If so, from where and what is the part number? Thanks, Ryan

Its probably already been mentioned somewhere on here, but after purchasing the All Balls Carby rebuild kit, have to say i was pretty disappointed with it. Hadn't had the carb off since i got it.

As there are a few 325s about, and the 350 kit is selling, I thought I should begin a thread about carb jetting for the big bore engines. Those of us who have been running the 325 for a while may have noticed they run a bit rich if the jetting is left standard. Sort of the opposite of what you might expect (coun...

I have been in email conversation with Peter Gray of Wilderness Wheels Morocco. They run a small fleet of blue TTRs alongside their KTM 450 EXCs.
