Hi guys i have a 2001 Yamaha ttr250 and when we got it we noticed that when you rev it the revs don't go back to idle they stay at the revs you were on and the only way you can get it back down is if you quickly rev the throttle. We have cleaned the carb checked the throttle cables and checked the choke but nothing...

TTR 250, 2006, 2500 miles, must be one of the nicest TTRs. Selling because its not being used as you will see from MOT history. And will be loosing my garage in next couple of months. Runs like new and as you will see from the pictures must be one of the nicest in the UK. If you need any more info or pictures ple...
Hi all, I was out a couple of weekends ago on the TTR for the Borders Rally - first rally and a fantastic weekend... until the bike lost all drive! To start with the bike was having trouble finding gear - I'd kick the gear change lever up but it wouldn't find it. From what I remember this was third to four...
Brick cleaning acid works wonders on dirty exhaust headers but an alternative that I have recently found is to use a wire wheel on a bench grinder. Works really well and then just needs finishing off with some relatively fine wet & dry paper and Solvol Autosol. Brian PS Please excuse the messy benc...
As suggested by brindabella, I have started this thread to show my own choice of "proven/economical/useful workshop consumables". I have started off with my UK thoughts maybe other owners from USA, Australia, etc, can weigh in with their local equivalent brands...... First off, one o...
I had a couple of clutch covers that I had put to the back of the shelves as I couldn't figure how to repair it and the covers are too valuable to throw away. The challenge is to drill the thread out for the Helicoil insert absolutely at 90 degrees. This is the kit I used - not actually Helicoil but a copy: I enl...
Hello from Japan. I found a very nice 1994 RAID with just over 3000km on it ,so I signed a contract with a motorcycle shop yesterday and it is currently being delivered and serviced. The bike is 30 years old, so it is becoming rare even in Japan, the country of production. Please, seniors, tell me a lot abo...
Just bought a 2005 little over a week ago. One trail ride so dar and it ran great. Only minor maintenance issues (clutch cable needed tightened and throttle was sticking). Both issues fixed easily. Hoping to get out again tomorrow. I have been looking for new plastics and graphics but haven’t found to...
So, my daughter's bike is starting to smoke a lot, figure it's time for new rings and piston, looking on Ebay, looks like they offer a few replacements, 73.75 bore, 73mm bore, 73.5 bore, Any idea what size I need, I don't want to pay the inflated Yamaha OEM brand if I don't have too. Thanks -- Edited by dle...
I have a shift drum bearing that is badly contaminated with aluminium swarf. Anyone know how to change it? How does the star wheel come off the end to pull the bearing off? I can't see it mentioned in my manual at all!

Hi there. I've just had an ace day out on the great western trail and the washed out gulley at Midford has claimed my rear shock! Had to ride back sitting on the tank! Where can I send it off to get fixed? Thanks for any help!
I have a 2006 blue tank ttr. my battery kept going flat so i replaced the rectifier. Battery continued to go flat. checked voltage at battery with engine running and it was not charging. took the stator out and found 2 burnt out segments, sent it to west country windings to be re wound. Re fitted and stat...
I need to replace the filters on the ends of the petc0ck, on the brass lines that are inside the fuel tank. Does anyone happen to know what the size is of those brass lines, or has an OEM petc0ck kicking around and can measure them - replacement filters seem to come in a few size variants? I will have to tak...
Hi all I'm not sure if this is been answered already. I have a charging problem and I checked the stator resistance and it was around 2ohms so I searched for a stator without any luck I ordered a Taiwan coil which was in spec for resistance but had a problem with the pickup which made the bike run super lean c...
So I'm thinking of stripping the TTR of all electrical components as I never use it on the road.. keep battery , starter & charging components , all other stuff will go... Question ... to remove the ignition switch do I have to connect any wires in the main loom ? only want the kill switch & a main o...
So, not strictly for sale from myself.. Alex from Alexander Motorcycles (alex@alexandermotorcycles.co.uk) done me a ridiculously good deal on a B&B Sump Guard he had in. On asking if he had anything else laying around for the TTRs he mentioned he had a set of the B&B frame guards. I'm not su...
Hi all, have just ordered the Acerbis tank mounting kit from Totally TTRs and am wondering if anyone has had any experience with it? I know the kit was made for the xr650l tank but has anyone successfully used it with one of the other xr tanks...250/400/600? The 650l tank seems to be rare in Australia bu...
Hi! I am the proud owner of this '93 TTR 250 open enduro. It was a birthday present from my fiance last July. I used to ride motocross (badly) in my 20s but stopped when my first son came along. He's 12 now and has his own TTR 125. I've not been out on the '250 much since I've owned it as I've been slowly working o...
Hi Guys, My 2005 TTR250 has a high pitched noise that gets louder with RPMs and when the engine gets hot. Clutch in or out makes no difference and neither does bike speed. I've only noticed it the last few hundred miles and it's been getting louder. Sometimes the engine makes a hard clunk when it shuts off...
Hello everyone! Yesterday i noticed that one of the studs that hold the exhaust in place had completely fell off my bike. I had replaced this stud a month ago as the previous one could not get tight enough and i hoped that this may resolve the issue, which unfortunately wasn't the case. The threading tha...
