Happened to drive past a local salvage yard and they had this decent-looking bike sitting there. I spoke with the guys there and they said if no one picked it up by Friday it was going in the shredder. I couldn't leave it and decided to bring her home with me. I started with a bike that had no tank, seat, clu...

Hi all, I was supposed to be taking my direct access bike test a few months back, but covid happened and my theory expired, so now I'm waiting to take it again and re-book my DAS course. I'm thinking of getting ttr250 anyway in the meantime as my workshop is on a farm where i can ride around a bit and get used t...
Just purchased a 2004. Prev owner said bike has sat since 8/16. The bike will not start. After looking at the carb, one of the hoses is not connected. The hose on the left hand side is connected and the drain hose is also. However on the right side of the carbs hose is no where to be found. Any chance that is my...
Hi all im after a new set of tyres, what sizes will fit without hitting my swingarm/ mudguard? will 120/90/18 fit on the rear? and will 90/90/21 fit the front? cheers
So first of all hello this is my first post so be nice ;) So I bought this battered wreck from my mother (that bought it as a dooer upper/quick turn around) that clearly didn't inspect it propperly as the piston skirt had broken off and shattered into a million pieces that had been distributed all over the...
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...
My bike has the original Tekei carb bored out, and with a ported and decked head, high comp 2mm OS piston, GYTR muffler and snorkel removed from airbox. 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...
Air cleaner servicing would be the worst job on a dirt bike, pretty dusty here in South Australia so I really need to keep on top of the air cleaner servicing. Lucky for me both the WRR & TTR take the same filter. I have tried many different brands but found the Twin Air to be the best for me. In the old da...

My standard Open Enduro headlight was a crap 35w, it got broken last Sunday when i was at Drumclog, stone straight through it, no matter, i had won a Raid headlight bracket the week before on Ebay, I fitted it a few nights ago along with a generic 8" glass headlight, 60/55w, its a huge improvement on ligh...
Thought on this fine day I would swap the TTR back onto D606 tyres....I had this set on the TTR a while back, nothing worse than fitting used D606's they are are hard as bloody rock.Not a lot of fun but it's done now, might put rego on the TTR later this month & take her out again
A glorious day here today and I was lucky to have previously arranged a short trail ride with my mate Jim. First time on the lanes for both of us since last Autumn. We covered only 45 miles but, within that distance, we rode 44 lanes. Some very short but that's a lot of different lanes however you look at it....

I rarely post and really should do so more. In that respect here are a couple of views (pics make it look a little cleaner than it really is) taken yesterday of my TTR. Just finished off a few service, cleaning and maintenance jobs in readiness for hopefully a better year than the last one. I have owned it f...
This is my Raid restoration project that has kept me busy in the evenings and weekends for the last year. The work is now finished, the bike looks good and is running well after some adjustments. I will do separate posts for the different stages of the restoration.I bought this bike in July 2019 here in A...
Hello all, this is my first post on the site. A few years ago when I got into dirtbiking I bought a ttr250 as my first full sized bike (from a crf230). After a few months of riding I sold it and moved on to other bikes. I have since had about 30 different bikes and lately was looking for a full sized air cooled bi...
Hi Gents I know this is a 250 forum, but before my 230 got destroyed I did a 4 day trip on it December last year. May I post it here? I don't want to offend the hard core 250 lads on here! Thanks
I’m about to upgrade all my riding gear. Thought I’d ask you guys what gear you run and recommend. Heres a couple items I like: •Alpinestars Oscar firm drystar boots •Fuel “Sergeant” Black pants •Bell moto-3 classic white Helmet Let me know your recommendations.
Rocking Horse Poo some parts for the TTr are now getting to this point or have been even when the bikes were New so topping this list i would put the Bluey fuel tank what value would we put on a good 2nd hand Blue tank if someone was to have one sitting in a spares box in there workshop just saying sort of thing ...
