Ok, so I'm done with tubes and patches and tyre levers in the rear, fitted the 18" Tubliss system last night. Time will tell how well it works. If it does it's going on the front...
Over the last few days I have stripped and cleaned the lockable fuel cap, carburettor and yesterday was working on the air-box. All done on the bench in the garage. Dropped a screwdriver on the floor and when picking it up seen this rubber O ring laughing at me from the floor. Hello there little O ring, I s...
Can I run my led plate light off my rear break light/rear light.??? I have two wires black and blue but neither is giving me power? ??? The light is working with a touch test off the rear lights. Possibly solutions please. .....
What is the plain tube (next to the breather with the yellow tip) that one end empties out near the bottom of the frame and the other end leads to what looks like the float bowl? For some reason it has started dripping fuel overnight. I have had this bike for six months (always left the fuel tap on) it has nev...
I'm looking for a spare rear wheel for a blue '01 TTR that I can put a different tyre and gear onto to give some easy swap-out options. Anyone have something they're looking at shifting? Thanks
Hi Everyone, I wanted to share this link for boats.net. I've found that this website consistently has the best price for OEM replacement parts, and their shipping is very reasonable (at least in the US). Their prices are usually 30-50% below MSRP. www.boats.net Click on Yamaha OEM parts on the lef...

I just had a quick look at eBay and there are a lot of new listings from the US for tank, wheels, swing arm etc. Very very cheap compared to UK prices. Shame shipping and import VAT etc to the UK would kill a deal I guess there will be an increasing number of TTRs in the States being parted out and it can only ge...
Hi guys Ive decided to let my TTR go. This year ive spent all my ride time on my Tiger 800XC and the TTR is just sitting abused in the back of my garage Its a 2004 blue plastics model, circa 12k miles, new polisport light and mini indicator conversions. Quite a bit of history, great tyres, bash plate and has j...
Hi everyone! Just got a 2004 (3rd owner) for a trail bike mainly because of the reputation of outstanding durability the bike has. I am having a small issue right out of the gate. The engine starts fine, idles fine, and overall seems to run decently except when I crack the throttle off idle to wheelie ove...
G'day everyone. Does anyone have experience in repainting the plastics ie tank/side covers etc? I was told by a local dealer that you can't repaint the tank because of the type of plastic from which it is made. Is this correct?
Hey guys, So the time has come to recondition the engine of my 99 blue model TTR that I bought 6 months ago (it was a cheap fixer upper, although it still goes really well, it blows heaps of blue smoke and uses more oil than a two stroke. I am a novice at repairing anything, but with the workshop manual a...
Flagpole trail ride.... This was a short loop of only 30km... I done 2 but it had a bit of everything... mud bogs/ slippery muddy climps & desents / forestry tracks with those loverly slippery roots / dry fast sections / snow..had a light dusting over night higher up... [IMG]http://imageshack.u...

As the topic suggests i have four valves & springs for sale... These i replaced only because i was unsure if i would be able to find a head with good valves but i ended up not needing them. Although i still used the new ones & kept these. They were removed from a 2005 model TTR250. This is a pic of the h...

Just been doing a bit of research on wheels that will interchange with TTR250's and I think I have found a suitable match. I am still uncertain but it all seems that WR's from 1992~1996 will fit TTR's. Whether or not special spacers would have to be made is anyone's guess, but so far so good. I am hoping so...
Just spent some time on this rainy Sunday morning in the uk changing my tyres for a nice set of mitas what difference it makes had MT43's on there, makes the bike look a lot nicer Tyres do change the look of the bike after and before
Just a thought really. Most magazines compere the ttr250 with a WR ect . But I ride with chaps on KTMs KLXs and so on. Whilst out this weekend I couldn't make a climb for love nor money (they all did)and a mate who is a damn good rider couldn't either (on my bike). So I had to ride a long way round After much de...
