Morning all, Just wondering if anyone has any experience of successfully upgrading the suspension on their bikes? The front end tends to be a bit twitchy with the whole set up being very soft. I know it’s a trail bike, but the front does tend to ‘dive’. Can you buy upgraded springs in the UK? I’m around 90...
Hi all We’re currently looking at bringing the family TTR to life which has a powercore 4 fitted. It’s very loud haha, but the pipe looks great! So we’re after a Q4 or something very similar! Thanks, Mark
I’ve managed to rip the wires out of the back of the clutch switch. My TTR will now only start if it’s in neutral. Logic says I should be able to join the two wires together and make it so it will start in neutral and in gear whether the clutch is pulled in or not. I’ve tried that as a temporary solution but the b...
Just a few pictures of a trip I'm just back from. 10 days on TTRs in Morocco. Me on my 325 and my mate on his 350. I transported the bikes down to Malaga in my van, collected Giles at the airport and continued south. We decided to keep vanning rather than leaving the van in Spain, and it was a good choice. On ent...
Following on my earlier post, I have removed the head, barrel and piston and determined that the existing piston is a Wiseco 4689M07350, which is 73.5 mm nominal (0.5mm over stock). While I fully recognize that it may make sense to replace the piston regardless, for diagnostic purposes I want to veri...

It would be good to find a car areosol that matched the purple OE frame paint fairly closely. Anyone managed to find one please? I think I may have found a car aerosol to match the blue metallic frames but will let you know when I have tried it Brian
My bike really runs perfect , but when I go down steep hills (like so steep I'm skidding on two wheels and really cant stop) , the bike will flood out , I have to open the throttle a bit to get to start again. I really don't know what it could be , possibly float level ? I have never had an issue like this with any o...
Hello all, New member. I just picked up a 2004 TTR250. I haven't ridden the bike yet. Going through it now. It has a mangled carburetor, PO broke float bowl post and I'm working on that. Anyways I have another issue I think. See below. I see a lot of threads about draining battery with key off but my...
A couple of years ago I fitted the ebc heavy duty cluch . I'm finding the lever pull too firm . Anyone tried going back to original springs with the new plates
Hello.I ordered some parts including handlebar risers and the longer clutch cable.The only thing i havent found out is if the stock brake line is still ok with the risers.Do i have to route it different?Thanks
Has anyone done a conversion to fit a WR dash to a TTR? I purchased a dash last year & mounted it, but haven’t gotten around to figuring out how to get it working any ideas? Does the WR run a pickup via a disk mountEd magnet or run a digital pickup in a housing similar to the analog cable one? see below...
Good evening- long time lurker first time caller poster! I'm Nev and this is me and my '94 Raid: I bought it late last year from a bloke in Wales who also had a blue tanked TTR as my path into trail riding. Since then, i've done my DAS and spent quite a few wet weekends out on the lanes of Lancashire and Yorksh...
I recently bought my first TTR OE (through the forum and from member Rob). I took it out on it's first outing recently and i'm surely converted! Now, I'm 6"5 and about 100KG and wondered if any one had advice for modifications for a vertically abnormal height such as mine? My local garage pumped up the f...

Replacing this part on the bike- Part...
About to start a top-end rebuild on my '06 U.S.-spec TT-R250. I've done a limited degree of poking around and haven't found many complete kits (piston, rings, gaskets, etc.), but I do see the Wossner piston kit and Athena gasket kits via several sources including TotallyTTRs, plus a few other option...
My standard exhaust on white oe has a hole by mounting bracket nr header pipe. It's been welded up twice. So looking for a fairly cheap replacement.

Any ideas on Spring rate calculations? I’m prob just under 75kg with full gear, I’m running a 20L tank, & max 20kg luggage with tools / spares. I’m going to work on 100kg - 105kg rider weigh, what rates for the springs you think are the ideal rate? cheers
Just it, my 2005 original battery, a lead-acid battery is dying, it recharges with a battery charger but at 15 days, it lost almost all the power. Any suggestions about a battery model? I was checking in a official Yamaha store and the original has this number 4UC821000100 , can anybody tell me if it is t...

Hey folks, I picked up this 07 TTR with Motard wheels on it a year and a half ago. Cut to 6 months later and the bike is stolen from my apartment building. C'est la vie. It's gone, I thought. A call from the cops a few weeks ago however had my TTR back in my apartment garage again (locked this time!). Problem i...
