I've looked through all the posts but can't find an answer. Sometimes the bike ran well then it just cuts out. Tbh it is a lot worse since the new pipe went on, as I'm not sure about carbs I don't know where to start. It also sounds like it's blowing back through the carb at times if that makes sense. Any help w...
I stripped out a kickstart mechanism a long time ago that had damaged splines. The parts are all together waiting for a miracle "cure" and it was a miracle I found the tub of parts!I know we have some engineers on the forum and would be grateful for some advice on whether the splines might be re...
Here's my TTR250. I got the new GYTR exhaust yesterday, bolted it all up, sounds wicked, and goes way better then stock. We didn't have to touch the circlip in the carb "at this stage" Its just on 12months old, and only done 680km - I only trail ride. Its got a new set of X-Tech handle bars, so...
i have a 2003 ttr125l it smokes and i know it needs new piston and rings but i dont want to just make it back to normal. i am curious to if a ttr 250 jug and piston will fit the 125 bottom end if anyone has any info on these please let me know
Well I suppose it is common for those who are as bad at trail riding as me. When I eventually get up and heave the bike up it can take some cranking to get it started again. Once started it is fine till the next time I fall off!! Any suggestions to get the bike started quickly?
Hi all, I'm new here, from south west UK. Excuse the question straight away I'm picking up a TTR next week and need to get a chain (to go with garage wall anchor) before getting the bike as theft is pretty bad around here. Can anyone tell me if they currently use a 19mm thick chain through the frame? Or wo...
After several hours of beach riding and the header pipe never cleaned since new i thought i try and tart it up abit. Started with 400 wet n dry then 600 wet n dry sand paper. metal polish helps it even more. This header will come of every 6--12 months now to give it a touch up. That way it may also help to keep he...
Im after one of these badges from a ttr 250 tailipe. Looks like they are rivited on. Ive emailed a few dealers with no Luck as yet. australian dealers maybe better for me. Thnx.
but not got a clue as to what to get. Upon giving the chain a good clean I found some of the links have seized. I am pretty sure i have the standard set. I use the bike for commuting and for green lanes. Around Surrey it is fairly hilly. but I do not know. what is the standard sprockets and chain?
My TTR 250 only got delivered today and i'm already thinking of getting the frame powder coated. It has quite a few bits of rust around welds and the subframe has rust under the rear fender. This goes against my OCD i hate rust and think there's a bit to much to sort out with spray cans. I'd also have to remo...
My TTR got delivered this morning and i'm quite pleased with it considering i didn't view it (ebay sale & came from Aberdeenshire). It's not as good as in the ebay pics but i took this into account as it's normally the case. It has quite a few rusty fasteners and some rust on the frame around various we...
Just what i was looking for, a TTR250 forum with plenty info and folk with good knowledge. Iv'e more or less decided that it's a TTR that i want to get as a lightweight bike for local trails. So the hunt is on for the later blue model. Iv'e seen quite a few over the last month or so but now i want one there's not t...
I'm re-posting a post I found on another web site on this:- Just found this and looks on the ball.http://youtu.be/RCrixbXz4rc Found them for sale here.http://aluminiumrods.co.ukI haven't tried any of this gear BUT if it's as good as it says then it should sort a few problems out. M...
I had my first try at spraying on plastics this evening and, apart from having bought the wrong colour, it turned out OK! Before: After: I had first scraped off some "dead" bits of white plastic from the headlight surround. I then rubbed it down in warm soapy water with 400 grit wet & dry...
Came with, but not fitted, to a newly acquired TTR. Looks to be made all in stainless steel with no dints or major scrapes, just light marks/scratches from being used and a little of the blue paint on the CRD badge is missing. There's a serial/model number on the hanger 'SIPOY25TT013' and it is also mark...
Hi EveryoneI’ve ordered myself a GYTR Slip on muffler for my 2013 TTR250.I was told by the guys in at Yamaha to just drop the height of the circlip down “one” in the carburettor. I’m just wondering if anyone has any information on whether we can move the circlip down one with it all still attached to t...
Finally got it muddy. First time off road, great fun, can't wait to do more. List of things needs doing... Need to rotate bars forward as I'm on top of them all the time when stood up, need to raise the ride height somehow, need to change the clutch cable and it sticks and need a new front tyre. Apart from tha...
Does my bike's ride height look normal? Could do with it being a bit higher but wondered what my starting point looked like to others before I wound the spring up a bit please. Thanks, Mark
How do yer think these would work on a bike..? only $59NZ..may have to narrow them up..horse is a littlewider than a TTRhttp://www.trademe.co.nz/sports/equestrian/other/photos/a-808976476/p-321042626.htm-- Edited by petenz on Saturday 22nd of November 2014 12:28:32 AM
Could anyone provide the correct size for the banjo bolt on the oil feed pipe the one closest to the oil filter housing on clutch cover length pitch etc many thanks.
Due to my standard exhaust deciding to fall to bits I have bought a CRD from Riverside. Will I need to do anything to the carbs, total novice with these tbh. At present the bike bogs down at low revs but is fine at higher rpm. Cheers from John
A bit about myself. Been riding all my life and im on the good side of 50, i ride a Yamaha xt660 Tenere and a Suzuki DL 650 . The Tenere gets used for riding to and on trails while the DL 650 spends most of it's time on the road. I tend to get out riding quite a lot and the Tenere gets a lot more use than the DL, theres...

The east coast of Australia is becoming harder to find bush to ride in. This police squad booked riders in port maquarie lately which is in NSW Half way up the east coast between Sydney and Brisbane (G 20 meeting world leaders). Plenty of bush in big Aussyland out west but its a 3 hour drive from where i am...
