Kerry - the westernmost point in Ireland - across Europe, Central Asia, Mongolia into Magadan in Siberia. The planned route is as follows:...
This is the start stripping and prepping, I don't know if any of you guys have worked on a big bike like a BMW, it's not as complicated as it looks just remember to take photos as you go, that way if you forget how it came apart you can always revert to the photos, that should apply to any project.
hi all just bought this 98 ttr in need of some tlc its all there from what I can see (apart of decals)rides nice only thing is its a little hesitant on the throttle under light load so thinks the carb may need a clean
Having been caught out by losing a split link on the trail a few weeks ago, I only just remembered to pack a new one in my tank bag before a trail ride on Tuesday. I find that the side plate is always a tight fit on the pins making it difficult to fit without a press when out riding so I always modify the spare I ca...
I have a bit of OCD and I like everything to be as good as new. I have so far changed my front mudguard and headlight surround. All I have left to do is touch up the frame and get both rear plastic panels and mudguard.Being scottish I grudge paying £80 per side pan and £90 for a rear mudguard. Why are parts so e...
It was (is) such a nice day today (now) that I couldn't resist a little "firkle" on my TTR. It was very bracing and the sea was dead calm, looking very inviting. I enjoyed it - must do it more. Martyn
I follow VINTAGE FACTORY on facebook , i remember watching the orginal ON ANY SUNDAY with Steve macqueen and Malcom smith in the 70s it was a great motorcycle documentry. I love my TTR. But i dont think i would go as far as a love heart heat shield on the pipe.
Hello, I'm new to this forum but not new to TTRs. I owned two 93 - 94 OE machines which I sold a few years ago. D'oh. What a mistake, so now I'm looking for another. TTRs are like chocolate, once you've had one it's never enough.

Not a restore but getting a TTR back on the road. Well it was already on the road as I bought it with a new MOT. The bike has done 6000 miles of which 2000 is in the last 7 years.

Hi guys, got this rack with my TTR OE. I'm never going to use it so might as well put it up for sale, its not lightest thing in the world as its around 3kg but it is sturdy lol. The paint isn't the best as you can see in the photo's. Was thinking £50 delivered but open to offers. John [URL=http://s1224.pho...

G'day All, Just picked up a '95 TTR 250 Raid locally here in Sydney, Australia. Needs a little TLC but will be a cheap bike to get around on in Summer and can save the GS BMW for longer rides. It's an import and apart from being in need of a front brake bleed, and an ignition switch is in working order. The igni...

Rode 200 km today all road riding With my misses pillion. Our total weight is 130kg and the TTR cruised along ok. We had a few mountain roads and it pulled up them easy enough. I asked blossom to wait at a park for ten minits while i rode alone for abit. Wow , it turned into a WR 450.
Did a few hours out in the local forest this morning here's a few pics it's mid winter about 18deg and a bit of rain last night . Managed to hit yet another roo and wasn't quick enough to get a pic of a snake grabbing a rare winter sunbake The new mt 21 WAS GREAT -- Edited by ttboof on Monday 7th of July 2014 04:...
My 325 looks after me very well so, with an MOT soon due, I decided to treat it to some new bits There was a bit of play in the rear wheel bearings so I stripped them out and the cause was obvious. Water had got in and, with it, the dreaded rust The cause of the water ingress was grooved spacers allowing water...
I have been looking at the blue plastic fork guard to try and tidy up the front end of my ttr. Has anyone fitted one before? What's do you think of them and what's the colour match like? Any pictures of it fitted?

Hi all.

Does anyone use plain, non O/X-ring chains on their TTR, if so, what sort of conditions do you generally ride (dry, wet, mud, dust etc)? I've got a tub of Putoline boil in chain wax that I use on my push-bike chains and thought that with decent chain cleaning and boiling in the wax would provide adequate p...
