Hi all, I'm J, been riding road bikes for 30 years and only rarely ventured off road. Now I'm living in Devon I plan to change that and have bought a lovely TTR, which was featured in a renovation build on here by Brian. Looking forward to getting out on the Devon lanes with the local TRF group and adding ne...
I was more like "trapped" than lost , at the QLD Motopark. Did the hardest and longest "red" trail and half way through ive had enough so headed back on the emergency /rescue trail. Well thats when i got lost and was using the sun to head north towards a highway. Seen a road from the top of a mountain and head...
I have been reading a lot of threads on the internet about TTR owners who removed the snorkel from the air box and installed twin air filters. I also read in new models such as my 2011 model you dont need to rejet carbs with exhaust upgrade. So, question is, will the bike run with more power if i remove the sn...
I just picked-up a 1999 TTR-250, put a new rear tire on the back and when I was tightening my rear axle, the snail-shaped chain adjuster on the castle nut side starts to slip when I get close to the torque spec. I'm thinking either the notches are worn down too much on the adjuster or there the washer that g...
Right. It's exhaust time. But I'm poor/tight and am looking at options for increased flow at minimum outlay. Question for the brains trust - will the shorty header deliver benefits with the standard muffler? Or is it better to do a muffler first? I hate the look of the standard muffler, want better per...

Bought my first dirt bike at age 39! Lots of research and limited budget has landed me with a street legal 1999 Yamaha TT-R250L. Looking forward to reading up on some good threads.
Thought I'd give plenty of notice for this one. Provisional date is Saturday 6th Aug, but is flexible at this stage. A days riding the lanes of the Mendip Hills and more lanes south of Bristol and Bath. It will be a good mix, and will be suitable for all abilities. The main plan is to have a laugh. I have a fie...
Went for a blast this morning.did the usual Ridgeway lane down to Ufton then I thought I would venture out to pastures new. Went through Southam to Lower Shuckburgh.

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...

Had this one from new. Photo is of a nice man from P&H Motorcycles delivering my eBay purchased brand new 2004 TTR250 in August 2004 This was when Yamaha were dumping all their European TTRs because, as I understand it, they would not meet forthcoming emission regulations. Dealers were given a...

Thought I'd post a couple of pics and a few words about a trip I've just made with some good friends I first met on The Vince a few years back: After four VINCE events in a row, and following a chance meeting with an orange bike rider near Oliana in Catalunya last year, the idea was born to do a Med to Atlantic c...
