Well finally got it a roller again truth be told my mate did, all new linkage bearings, swing arm bearings and all powder coated and a newer better condition rear shock and a raid tank really suits it. hope you all like
Bought a 02 "garage queen" a few weeks ago. Bike was lightly used and the pipe sounded great (for a stock pipe) I bolted on a new FMF Q4-so if you need an original exhaust or just the silencer/spark arrestor PM me. I'll ship in the FMF box unless a all you need is the baffle but I would like to sell t...
got out again today rode the forest south of home a nearly five hours covering 180ks , the forest differs from my ride on Wednesday in that the tracks consist of steep rutted rocky tracks that are quite challenging but fun at the same time here's a few more pics , warm 30 deg C clear autumn day .
So last night I fitted one of these. It was £17.99 off Amazon, has good reviews and was easy to fit, even for a mechanical retard for myself! I did manage to break a fuel hose removing the tank though I can now run a sat nav and change my phone and my kindle at the same time! Result!
The pics should be self explanatory. What I think has happened is through either lack use of or just wear, the dials have seized. When I got it apart I put a drill on the drive and I could see it all spinning but just clicking where you can see the tip of the crewy. I poked a small screwdriver in-between each o...
Having just bought a white 1993 TTR 250 for a short commute to work (9miles each way) can someone please advise on the road tyres that I will require. The bike will not be used off road at all, criminal I know but it was a bargain and ideal for my daily short trip. Also any idea of its value? 1993 model, white...
OK – so Totally TTRs is moving into the 21st century with an eShop.With our existing web catalogue, it is time consuming to add a new product. Convoluted doesn't even come close as a description. I have lots of ideas for new items to add such as front mudguards, etc., etc., but am put off as it's such a faff...
we have had a bit of rain so attempted to get the ttr muddy today in the coopernook state forest a few minutes ride north of home a loop of 140 ks with a bit of mud to kick it off but by the time I was heading back it was back to dust . a nice autumn day 26 deg c and got to take in the views of the manning valley a fai...
Just been messing about with my Brothers new TTR, well happy with it, started on the button, but he wants a new pipe between the header and the silencer.. This one looks like it may give in when subject to a bit of green lane use, the silencer is a Laser Pro Duro, possibly not originally Destined for a TTR, b...
Having owned it for 2 years now, done several jobs on it and spent money on it despite never turning a wheel in 'anger' I give in. I've been trying to MOT it for nearly 3 months now and just can't find the time due to work, if I can't manage this I've resigned myself to the reality that even if I did get it road le...
I've got my motor off and right now I'm replacing the valve seals, filters, starter/sprag, and timing chain/sprockets. Is there anything else this 15 year old engine might REALLY need that could cause fatal errors? The mileage is unknown but the top end looks brand new, valve springs are tight, the c...
Hi Has any one come across this , starter keeps cranking on its own, traced fault to solenoid ( continuity across both post) new item fitted , wiring from start button checked all ok. Started several times as normal ,then continuous cranking only way to stop it was to remove earth wire from battery. New...

I've been wiping it clean and re in...
I've been offered a 00 Raid at small money. The guy who is selling it said he got it as payment for some work. The previous owner fell off on the road,bent the gear lever, rode in home in 1st gear and killed the engine. The present owner had the crank redone and rebuilt it but said it "**** itself"...
Anyone got any experience of waterproof roll bags on here by any chance? I am looking at buying something to bungy onto my rack for a trip up to Scotland in June and there are lots available, but thought I would just ask for any experience before jumping in and buying. Thanks

I had an email from a lady customer in Australia this morning which included this little gem in passing:I am absolutely in love with my TTR and ride it not only off road here in New South Wales but also to work and back. I actually got knocked off it yesterday by a kangaroo but luckily I was only going slow an...
I recently replaced a solenoid that worked most of the time but occasionally would only click and not turn the starter motor. Being an inquisitive soul I took it apart to see if I could spot the problem. Nothing obviously wrong with the exciter coil and the "bottom" of the solenoid. The co...
The day was bright and sunny and we had a 10am start from Treens Motors, Crediton.Mounting the bike for the off, Oly says “your bikes dripping fuel”, so before the off we had to take the fuel tank off my bike as we couldn’t stop it, turned out to be split fuel pipe and a fuel tap that’s not turning off anym...
Last year I decided to sell my Yamaha TTR 250 due to lack of time to use it. Almost immediately I changed my mind and withdrew it from sale. However, almost a year later the bike hasn't been used, so I am reluctantly going to put it back up for sale. So, it's a 2004 TTR250, with 6300 miles on the clock, quite a...
New member here. Got a '04 TTR 250 for awhile now. Lovely bike mostly stock apart from exhaust modified by previous owner. Rust here and there but I plan on fixing that and doing some other mods . Will put some pictures up tomorrow.
wire colors don't match the wiring diagram so I'm having trouble figuring out these electrical connections. Restored this bike and it's been a while since I took it apart. Three connections, all under the gas tank near the top of the frame: 1: a ground connection that doesn't reach any obvious pl...
