Hi all, I have the white tank TTR250 Open Enduro, I believe 1994ish. Since I've bought it, it has an annoyingly fast idle speed with the choke on. I have the manual but I cannot see a section which describes how to adjust it. Any help would be appreciated! For reference: I tried turning it in, but it doesn'...

I had put a spare tank on my 325 to use whilst I put a new set of decals on the original. The tank had a new fuel tap on so I didn't bother to take it out for inspection. I actually got around to stickering up the original tank today so decided to drain the spare tank of fuel before taking it off. It seemed odd that...

I have been playing with jets on my 1996 Raid lately. My bike has the snorkel out, no restrictor. Before it ran fine, but the first 1/4 was weak so I changed the #50 pilot to a 52.5. The new power was instantly noticeable. However, beyond about 1/4 -1/3 it weakens for a bit, then picks up again. Every singl...

Hi there. Just recently got myself a ttr and it rums a fcr33. I have just took it off to clean it out as it overflows if the engine is switched off and fuel is on. Does anyone else have experience of these carbs? If so what jets do you use and have you any advice?

Been fiddling around with the jetting on my 325 recently as I've got the loan of an Air/fuel ratio meter and header pipe with lambda sensor boss. (Oh, and I've got no wife/kids/life ) The 325 runs nicely on 50 pilot/147main jets, needle clip 1 notch above middle. Motad exhaust, Twinair filter and mild...

I was given an 04 TTR by a good friend. It hasn't run for a few years. I started it a few weeks ago and it kept cutting out. Because of the long lay off I suspected carb issues. I have removed, stripped and cleaned the carb but used no new o rings etc. I'm pretty sure somebody with a heavy wrist has had a go at the c...

Wonder how well a xt250 carb would fit ? The cables look like they would be a straight fit and it's a pumper carb like the original. The Teikei carb seems to be getting very rare so could this be a good replacement ? Being Mikuni spares would be available and iv'e seen service kits on ebay. Think i'd give one...

Hello all....just bought 2005 TTR250....I thought it was in good shape but have already found a couple of issues.

My bike is running rich, as it splutters a lot on WOT. I have ran it with air box lid removed and it runs a lot better. Main jet is a 147, can anyone recommend what size main jet to change to? exhaust is a CRD open pipe. Is there a point changing pilot jet as it runs ok on low revs. Many thanks.

KamJam · KamJam

Hey! I was wondering if anyone knew what jets (pilot and main) would work most efficient at 7000ft above sea level. I dropped the needle down two notches in the carb but it still sputters at high rpm and i can not get full power. Let me know your guys opinion!!

I noticed that I had a little petrol come out of this hole When I turned the fuel on. I had only just cleaned the carb it stopped after a few secs and hasn't done it since. as you sit on the bike this hole is on the right hand side of the carb on the bottom of the float bowl. I think it's for a pipe I didn't see a pipe o...

Hello, I'm just learning how to take apart my carb on my TTR, as I cleaned the jets after it sat all winter. When I put it all back together and turned on the pet**** to fill the bowl, it started leaking out of the overflow. I figured the float was stuck so I tapped on it and it stopped leaking. Then when I st...

As above, my TTR starts and idles very well, i can even get it to idle very slowly and it ticks over lovely. But just above idle it seems slightly hesitant, this will be a pain when riding off road. Other than this it revs cleanly through the rev range as it should. Iv'e put the standard exhaust back on incas...

The bike was standing for 18-months with fuel in, carb not drained. It would crank over but not run.

Cleaned jets, diaphragm, bowl and float, an...
