Hi all, got a lowered 250 for my G/F to ride on our annual week trip to the Ainsa area of the Pyrenees but now she has taken the only logical way to make it even lower and lighter than I could whilst retaining electric start - swap it for a KTM Freeride!

Now on eBay: To my dismay I have just found out that my bike was classed as an insurance category D total loss in March '09. I entered details into Autotrader to sell the bike and found out this information. I never done a check before I bought it and have now done so with HPIcheck. Here is an excerpt: Aler...
My TTR isn't starting and low on compression - 50 to 60 psi so I took it all apart both cylinder head and barrel etc but without dismantelling the valves - wasn't brave enough and couldn't find a 'sticky' from Brian.

Hey everyone! Just joined the forum. Riding a "rat rod" 99, in the process of making it street legal. Low miles, but spent too much time sitting outside a barn in the sun . Look forward to sharing what I know and learning from others.
Wanted to know if anyone could point me in the direction of some electrical specs. I'll be wiring a horn and H4 headlight into my bike as part of the process of making it street legal. I'd like to wire it up to an ignition killed harness instead of tying it all into the battery. Any experienced advice...
