I picked up this well used TTR on Sunday and had a fantastic day out with the Herts TRF today in the torrential rain, great fun! The bike performed well but after running through some heavy puddles and getting a good soaking the bike would die as soon as I stopped and then be very hard to get started again, t...

Hi folks I was using the TTR last weekend which I have recently acquired and I noticed that the speedo was reading very very optimistically. I can't find anything about calibration in the manual. Has anyone ever come by this problem and is there a fix? Thanks APW

I had never heard of JIS until a few moments ago! Interesting reading. I am assuming our TTRs use JIS fasteners. Brian Cross-head style fasteners can be found on all Japanese motorcycles. Most people will associate this style of cross-head to a Phillips style bit. This is incorrect. These cross-hea...

Found slight movement in lower shock bearing so changed it.. Scored up Did rear wheel bearings too, the two on the sprocket side came out stuck on the spacer but they soon collapsed when I squeezed em up in a vice
I learnt this off ttrsteve when he was here on Monday. To prevent water/moisture getting into the airbox when power washing with the seat of, put a glove over the snorkel I used to stuff rags in there but this is such a better idea! The other glove fits nicely over the exhaust if you haven't got a bung for...
I last saw my TTR parked in the undergound car park where I live at about 11pm on Monday 31st August 2015. I got that unwated call this morning at 8.30am when a neighbour noticed the bike missing and damage to her car. I reported it to the police but I'm not expecting it back. I thought I was alright securing...
Trying to swap out the kouba lowering link for the original length. I've taken the plastic caps off the swing arm to remove the 17mm bolts and sleeve. Trouble is, the bolt and sleeve just spin around. I can see the sleeve has two flat edges, but obviously whatever surface was holding is still has been kna...

Hi guys, I am collecting a 1993 TTR tomorrow. I have just sold my XT225 Serow as it was too small and a little too slow for what I want to use it for off-road. A friend of mine has a lovely 93 TTR and I came by one almost identical, albeit needing a lot of work. The engine is rattle-free and mostly it needs a total...
