Brian from Totally ttrs sent me a replacement (the one on the left) which should fit 99% of bikes but of course not mine Can anyone else help me out and also let Brian know what the part code is for my one with the wide...
hey fellow riders ive had my bike for awhile now but only just found this forum and thought i could use some help and tips if i ever need them as i need help now haha but anyways this is a pic of my ttr250 open enduro from a couple years back.
I just got back from riding the TTR for a few days in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, north of Lake Tahoe. Since not many of you are in North America, let alone California, I posted the report on the XT forum. If you are interested in seeing the pics and report of my time there, I have posted a full report on th...
Packed and raring to go, off to the Isle of Man for three days green laneing, boat leaves Heysham at 0200 hrs Friday, glad I only live 1/2 a mile down the road in Morecambe. and yes top box comes off just leaving the rack
Opened up shed 2night after 3 days... just about got knocked over by the smell of fuel that hit me.... Even with the fuel tap turned off... 1/4 of a tank of fuel had managed to exscape... So I would say both the fuel tap & carb need looking at... "Get yer #@&% togeather Yamaha this things only...
I recently had the seat recovered and when I look at the underside it is obvious there were once a couple of rubber (or similar) pads on the underside and there is a 6mm thread for attaching same. Our upholsterer tells us that "No, I never saw any pads there". It looks to me as though they would h...
Thanks for the supplier list, besides what Brian stocks, any recommendations for a good UK Yamaha spares online supplier for items he doesn't stock. I've used Wemoto but they are mainly service items, and some parts from A J Sutton for my XTR, any others you have had experience with. Not that I need...
I decided it was time for an oil and filter change, however it seems that last time I topped up the oil I must have over tightened the filler cap, as today I could not get it off......... Needless to say, the bolt head is now rounded off. so two things: firstly, in the short term, can I get oil into the engine...
Hi, is there a particular type of grease that should be used to lubricate the wheel spindles ( are they called this, the shafts that come out to take the wheels off )? When repairing a puncture "in the field" it was pointed out to me that they shouldn't be dry so I thought I'd check if there was a c...
As title really, while at home its secure but I wondered what people recommend for when your out and about ? Im not after the thickest heaviest chain man can carry as I want to be able to move on the bike lol, But I feel something would be a good idea, looked at the small disc lock type of thing, any suggestion...
Took the TTR for it's first real ride... A few single tracks thought the forestry... but the Rekluse clutch was slipping so much I had to bring the revs on quite slowly to try and keep the slip to a minimin.. didn't really work but at least I haven't fryed the clutch or oil.. so I looks as if I will be back ins...
Hi there everyone, Matt here from Snowy Connecticut. So I finally got to ride my new to me 2006 TTR today. I REALLY love this thing. There's a lot of different thoughts going on in my head, I havent had a bike since I left London 25 years ago... Marriage, two teens, work, all the other stuff - then I lost m...

Total of 185kms, ran out of fuel on the main tank at 180kms...hoped to get a little more but so be it. Stopped for a coffee here, no cafe either plenty of water around & the hills are green n...

Hi Guys, I am swapping out my standard 14 tooth front sprocket for a 13 tooth one and noticed (as shown in pics) the current one seems to have rubber on both sides that the new one doesn't. Is this something I need to mount on the new one???? Or just an option that is not really necessary?? Thanks, Michae...
What is the standard main & pilot jet size ? I now know why the bike came with a nice new unused Yamaha GYTR pipe.. I put it on .. the bike runs like a X#@%&*^?.... EDIT.... Main 137 & Pilot 52 sound right ? "internet search" -- Edited by petenz on Saturday 27th of July 2013 04:44...
Today's been very drizzly and not like summer at all. Whilst out and about in the car we were following a van. The registration plate caught my eye and since I had my camera handy here is a blurred crop of the snap. Quite appropriate but, sadly, not 250 TTR or TTR 250. Martyn
Looking for a kick start kit for my 2005. Have been all thru here and other sites. Either none of the sites carry this or the links are too old. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi, does anyone else run one of these ? my ride came with one fitted but Ive never really used one in the past, I like to clean and lube myself (ooer mrs), so I can do a few checks and keep a eye on things, Just wondered on peoples thoughts of these.
Went along to assist a local club set out the track for a moto x race meeting on Sunday and was invited to join in! Apparently you can get a one day competition licence, but I won't be taking up the offer, I had enough fun tearing round the track after it was set out.
Hello All. I thought I'd finally introduce myself here as I've been floating around for a while soaking up all the info in the maintenance threads. i bought a 99 TTR 250 Raid back in April and have already had a few experiences I thought I would share! Firstly, great bike and made even better by a very inf...
Hi all was wondering if any one had or knew of anyone selling a rear exhaust box for the blue ttr 250? many thanks Tom -- Edited by Tucker250 on Wednesday 24th of July 2013 11:31:07 PM
Just wondering if it's possible to use the gauges from an XT350 (speedo at least). I know you guys can use xt225 gauges, but how do you hook up a speedo cable to the front hub if your blue model only has the Yamaha odometer? Just saying cause I got to ride a 1990 xt350 and I liked it. Thanks! -- Edited by yamaha...
