At the moment the carb stickies are in with general repair and maintenance items. Would anyone object/support me setting up a new sub forum just for carb-related issues? Brian

I bought it for the wife but in reality it was for me. it's probably my favorite bike but then I say that about all of my bikes at any one time....
Bought by me in Feb 2012, previous owner bought it in Feb 2010, in his note he said ‘The previous owner used it mainly off road but looked after it very well, all those who had viewed it could not believe it had been off road and…I am completely anal about my bikes being mechanically perfect’The bike was i...

Hi folks I need some advice please. A customer asked for a quote for 4 valve lifters - as Yamaha calls them. I looked up the fiche and it showed two different parts - a blue and a red Anyone know the difference please? Brian
I have a 2004 TTR 250. Right in front of the head cover there is a hole. When warm there is oil that kinda percolates out and drips on the exhaust and smokes. It looks like there should be a bolt in there, but every part finder I see has the hole but no bolt identified. Can someone please tell me what this...
Hi, Just picked up my first TTR 250 today so just saying hello. I bought it as an introduction to green laning and off roading. My background is in road riding and I current have a r1200gs that I've had for a month and prior to that I have an R1, a fireblade and a load of other odd bikes. Cheers, Mark -- Edited b...
I've recently added a Yam TTR 230 to the fleet, fully aware that they were never an official import to the UK.I am interested to know if there are many others out there with one, and if so how do you get on with spare parts as when needed. Do you you buy from US?They are a real gem of a bike and I wonder why manufa...
We have recently supplied TTR250 parts to Ridelimousin, see here, who offer guided tours of the beautiful Limousin area of France. Torsten and Ro (Rowena) started the business in 2012 and it has been growing since then with the latest venture being to hire out trail bikes - four TTR250s see here So i...
Having just rebuilt my TTr top end it all runs but only in neutral , as soon as I put it in gear the engine cuts - it won't restart or even turnover except in neutral - so how should I eliminate the problems to find the source?? I assume it's either a sensor in the gearbox, side stand or clutch switch but wher...
There is an add. Type in TTR 250 parts. Guy has a front wheel for sale $100. He said he also has blue model petrol tank. Rear shocky. Front mud gaurd. All for 100 bucks. Its in western Sydney Sounds like a bargan for anyone local.
Anyone got any of these they are prepared to part with for cash or to swap for other TTR parts? I don't need the wiring loom/connector for the warning lights just the binnacle itself. Brian
A couple of weeks ago I left the bike idling on full choke for a couple of minutes and left it running. I came back to see the battery box smoking. The result was an approximately two inch hole melted on the edge of the cover. I thought that this was down to me leaving the bike on idle too long but now I'm not so s...

Evening all, Just a quick query ref. clutch cables. Does anyone happen to know of a decent replacement cable that not going to cost the same as Yamaha want to charge.......£40 Would a better alternative be to get a universal repair kit and hope the bit fit? Phil
There was some question about stock jets on US models - for the record, I pulled the carb on my 2003 US model, which I'm pretty certain has never been touched, and the jets are in fact 137/50 (as Jarrah had opined) even though my manual says the pilot is 52. I was told this bike was originally sold in Alaska...
