Hey Guys, Have read with interest the exhaust mods from Linearprojects however as I don't have a welder I may have to go for an after market exhaust. While registered my TTR is trailered to our ride spot up in the mountains so I don't care if it's loud (in fact loved the deep throaty sound of that TTR from th...
Just thought I'd put a quick post in as there seems to be a few issues with this. My bike was having issues returning to a normal idle when coming to a stop. (It stayed high or took a while to return or needed a blip to return it to normal) I had previously rebuilt it with an 'All Balls' kit. After trying all...
Since building the 350 I'm loving it so much I don't want to stop riding it when my local lanes close over winter so I'm building some supermoto wheels on some hubs Steve at Totally kindly found for me Of course the smaller 17" wheel and lower profile tyre will already shorten my gearing slightly which is...

Just joined the forum, what a wonderful resource! Thank you Brian and all the contributors. I just picked up a really sweet 2006 road legal (and still licensed) TTR for my son to use. It has less than 5000 kms on the clock, still on the original chain, sprockets and Nissin disc pads! It is in really excell...
I want to set up a spare set of wheels for more road use over winter when my local lanes are closed Will probably get the hubs built onto some smaller rims so not bothered on condition for complete wheels, and a set of bare hubs would be even better Located in the UK
I have just fitted a set of drop-in cartridge emulators, springs and a new rear shock from Cogent Dynamics in the US to an XT250 Serow (sorry to get your hopes up with that first sentence!) The front end was dramatically improved (ride quality and dirt road cornering feel) so I have been trying to find in...

In rebuilding my 325 into a 350 as it has finally succumbed to the dreaded barrel weep, I have found the 6th gear in the transmission is quite badly pitted on the tooth surface. I know this is an issue with the xt/tt 600 engines (top gear being 5th in these) but didn't realise it was much of a problem on our en...
https://ebay.io/m/verWHB Do these fit the open enduro? I saw one on a Serrow recently and couldn't really tell any obvious difference to the open enduro. Ta Dave
I get monthly reports on how my TTR250 web pages are "performing". Interesting to see the shock rebuild page is coming in at Number 3! These are the top 3 pages:http://ttr250.com/Carb/TTR250_carburettor_strip_and_rebuild_guide.htm 5 hitshttp://ttr250.com/Removing_Cylinder_Head/TT...
My ignition pick up has gone open circuit. I've ordered one on ebay that I think I can fit to the existing stator/wiring. Being Chinese if it works I might sell the ttr because I can't trust it Tried to buy a complete stator but apparently not available any more Has anyone got a good fix -- Edited by T...
PO55 in pieces again - I do not love this bike - and just to make my life more interesting, one of the exhaust manifold nuts sheared off when I was removing the exhaust pipe. Any advice as to how to remove the stud - I have tried loads of WD40 and heating with the blow torch, but it still wont budge.
Hey, So 8 ish years ago I had the mess of the decompressor bung leaking so changed it for the aluminium turned bug sold on totally ttrs. Now its leaking again. I havent pulled it out but has anyone else had any issues? O ring need replacing? I was just gonna buy a new one but not for sale now. I changed the bolt...
Hi all, I’ve had my TTR 250 1996 for 10 years . The master cylinder failed a few years ago, with rear brake sticking on, and I replaced it with an aftermarket one. The rear brake started sticking again last week and cracking off the master cylinder high pressure connection didn’t free the rear brake so t...
Hi All. I joined the forum a while ago when I bought a ttr250 as a project. It's complete but the engine is no good. I have been trying to find a complete engine. But have had no luck. So I think I will sell the bike that I have as a project for someone else to take on. Unless one of you has an engine for sale? If an...
Hi I am talking about an 04 blue tank model bike that I have had for 12yrs so it is not new to me. I am reasonably ok with practical stuff rebuilt engines etc . So my problem started when I came to take thebike out after a longish 1yr year of no activity. Starts up fine ticks over fine will rev up if throttle is op...
Hi kids, does anyone have some pics of the wiring loom routing, I’ve a workshop manual, but I’m still struggling!! I’ve had the frame powder coated and of course didn’t take any pics before disassemblage 🫣 lesson learnt. . . maybe!! Any pics most appreciate, need to get it back together asap 🙏 ps is a rai...
Hi was wondering if anyone could help me before I pull any more of my hair out?? I replaced the oil and oil filter on my ttr today all was ok untill I started the bike up after i had finished as I noticed That when I rev the bike oil comes out of the top of the oil filter housing and when I release the revs and she i...
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...
Years ago when I last went riding I used to fill up my backpack with all types of useless crap that was heavy and probably only usefull on everyone elses bikes. What basic tools and spares specifically suited to a TTR should I carry as a minimum? Generally we wouldn't venture anymore than about 100km...
Has anyone found a reasonably priced lithium battery that fits in the TTR tight dimensions? I have a 93 model, I assume the later models have the same dimension carrier 150x90x60, can anyone verify? thank you.
I have just converted my 1997 TTR250 to a "Supermoto" .... It was relatively straightforward and CHEAP, once I figured out which wheels to use!For the rear, I fitted a DT125X (17" x 3.5"), which more or less bolted straight on! All it required was a slight modification to the TTR...

If I didn't take it, it was off to the tip. Far too good to just throw it away, so I took it and got it out of the weather. Wasps had taken over as the top of this insect motel's food chain. I removed all of the plastics, what remained of the seat (I think it may have been sheep food), and the engine came out. Th...
To try and take the guesswork out of which size cable clips go where on the frame, I decided to be more methodical on the last dismantlement of a metal-tanked OE. Raids and blue TTRs might be slightly different - but I don't think they are! I took off 11 clips and they are four different sizes: four 6mm, one...
Some of you may have realised by now, there is talk of a 350 kit becoming available. There has been some really hard work done by a fellow TTR nut, to see if it could work. Measurements have been taken, suppliers and manufactures have been approached and it would seem it is a feasible project. The seed fo...
