Hi from the often most liveable city Melbourne! Well I finally got around to joining the forum, not because I finally bought a TTR250, I’ve owned mine since June 2003! But I thought I better write up some stuff before it dies (do TTRs ever die?) or before I sell it. Wait, what sell it? Maybe might just have...

Yes, that's right. Another one. I bought a used TTR-250, a 2005 model, a bit over a year ago. The basic bike is a ripper, but as soon as you have to work on them it quickly becomes apparent that an XR it certainly isn't. Still, it's a nice ride. I just fitted a 21 litre Acerbis tank, so the front suspension is n...
Blue model 35,000km with little dirt work but i do get up it through the gears on the road at times. oil changed every 1,500-2,000 kms , although i dont know the first 10,000 km history of the bike.

Looks like I need a sprag clutch, idle gear and started motor :( Any one got any of these parts and willing to sell, I have read it is best to buy a brand new sprag clutch.
I need to replace the gasket on the right-hand side of the engine case because it leaks oil. Do I need anything to stick the gasket down or do I just throw it on and put the case on?
