My friend kindly made me a bash guard with some aluminium he had lying about (old road sign). I am rather impressed with the finished product. Just thought I would share and wondered it anyone else had made one?
I have recently rebuilt a standard 250 TTR engine and need to test it out. The only TTR left in my garage now is the 325 so my aim today was to whip out the 325 engine and replace it with the shiny "new" 250 rebuild. It was interesting that, despite torquing up the engine bolts when I fitted the 325 engine seve...
I have spent many an hour pondering the perfect bike for trail riding/green laning as we call it in the UK. Three years ago I fell in love with the new CCM GP450. Of course it was only a dream, but at £8000 ish, still cheaper and more attainable than Rachel Weisz, my other dream All the characteristics I th...
Hi all im new to the forum and have a 2009 TTR250 which I have been restoring. I have rebuilt most of the top end and other bits and pieces and have loved reading and learning from all the great info on the forum and have found it to be most helpful so many thanks to all for that. I have finally gotten to ride the...
I've got a good handle on road tyres, from sports/touring through to sports and road-legal track day tyres but when it comes to off-road!!?? Mostly it seems when one dives in to a manufacturers web site off-road section you get straight to the hard-core MX and Enduro tyres that aren't really intende...
G'day, I have a 2010 (Australian) TTR250 that has about 600kms (370mls) on it. The bike has only been ridden very lightly and is almost as new. The bike started first go after a four month lay off but would bog down as soon as any throttle was applied. I suspected the fuel may have gone off so I drained th...
Bought my TTR a few months ago, which I love, and one of the things I really love is the fact that they're really quite rare and I'd probably never see another one.....or so I thought! I was out for a trundle a couple of Sundays ago, and I came to a T junction in Bishop's Waltham, in Hampshire. Imagine my surp...

For some reason mines got burnt holes in it and is rather scruffy looking. Does anyone have a white rear mudguard in good condition? To fit a Raid but I think both OE and Raid are the same. Regards,Moo.

So I went to change my oil today and when I went to drain my oil and there was only a few drops of oil That came out. Filled it up and cranked it up and it is running good no unusual noises. I rode it around and it ran fine. Pulled back to the house and it was squirting oil from the base of the cylinder. Found a kit to...

My friend Bob and I paid Steve a visit this morning - both a social plus putting our heads together to check out a possible theory that might be causing some owners problems with their sprags. We wanted to check on an installed sprag so Steve decided to have a look at the one on the TTR he is breaking for spar...

Hi Brian! Its me, Robin. Remember? the one who bought a whole bike from you, one nut and bolt at a time. Hope you are enjoying 'retirement'. I have a question but don't often use the forum so maybe its already been answered... It's this: When turning off my 315cc bike I often get a loud clunk. Not every ti...
Hey dudes (and dudettes) Just joined the forum. Hoping to spend some time here learning about TTR's and getting mine running good. I'm from Oklahoma (US) and ride an '05 TTR 250. I love it, other than it not running right every since I bought it. Lol. David
My name is ROG and I live dnunder, Newcastle NSW. I have recently acquired a 2002 ttr250 with 6500 kms on the clock. this brings the obsession to 4. An R1200gs, a F650gs and a Maxsym 400. The TTR was purchased in order to increase my confidence on the dirt for the larger bike and I've got to tell you this is...
Mid August last I started having funny turns. In 1973 I was diagnosed as suffering from Type 1 Diabetes - an afliction I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. It turned out that my immune system had been secretly destroying all the islets of langerhans within my pancreas. These islets are vital to normal liv...

Hi You Knowledgeable Lot! I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what the name of the seal in this picture is? Then I'll ask Brian if he has it in stock :) It looks easy enough to replace once I get the tank off; am I wrong? I think this has occurred because I feed my 19mm chain between the engine and the frame (sma...
