Third time lucky and I managed to find a newsagent with a copy of Motorcycle News on its shelf! Inside it there is a "MCN Adventure Special". Page 20 has been given over to an article by Robin Webb of "Salt & Gold" fame with some nice pics of his big-tanked TTR250. Sadly, there...
Dear TTR owners - Let me introduce myself? I am an old git of 54 with a passion for motorcycling. My friends think I am eccentric, I have no idea why. For years I have ridden trail bikes, although I am told that I am useless and should stick to road sports bikes. The first trail bike was a standard BSA 65...
Got this bike stand but the lift is not high enough. Ive adjusted the stand to gain the most. Problem is for the stand to go under the bike i need a block of wood under the rear wheel. Then when i raise the stand the lift is only just enough to have both wheels of the ground. It will have to do as its impossibl...
After a ride over the weekend... I have found the gearing is far to tall.. 13/44 So I have ordered 12/13/14 engine sprockets & a 47 rear.. The 14/47 gives the same ratio as 13/44 12 & 13 sprockets to lower the ratio.. which are the same as increassing the rear sprocket by 3 or 6 teeth.. Should beab...
Looking for a used bash plate. Thought id try second hand first. If i cant find one i will wait and buy new. I will be doing alot of mountain riding soon. As my budget increases i will get bash plate, then knobby tyres. Id prefer to be sliping around abit ( or alot ) then have a smashed crank case. I will t...

Fancy fitting some Wavy discs to my TTR, but when asking about I have had a mixed response to the idea in general. Just wondered if owners who have fitted Wavy discs have found an improvement, and under what conditions? One silly question - brake grease - where do you put it and more important where don't...
Wondering why some of my posts have the new post symbol beside them. Also some of my pics are the wrong way up. Im doing all this on an iphone. Any suggestions to help me post better plez.
I have just stripped out a linkage arm where the previous owner had tried replacing the standard spherical bearing with phosphor bronze plain bearing It didn't work as you will see from the pics below
Had a miss-fire problem since I had the bike, thought I had cured it with a new plug and cleaning the plug seating on the head but it's come back again. I was wondering if it could be a faulty coil or plug cap - or anything else?. I can't see it being a carb problem - that's been cleaned out a few times. It mainly...

Hi all, I've got a few questions about distributing oil in the forks to get the correct oil level reading. The service manual that I downloaded from this forum gives details of how to distribute the fork oil when refilling the forks, but I am still not totally clear on the process. In the Front Fork, Asse...

2007 model. 9000 kms. Only had bike for 3 months so thought id check the plug. Looks like it maybe the original plug from new. Abit rusty. will crab a new one and keep it as a spare.
When attempting to adjust the rear suspension rebound damping on my 2005 TTR250 I discovered that it doesn't click when rotated. This is the knurled dial at the bottom of the shock. The manual describes all of the suspension adjustments in terms of "clicks". Can someone describe the cli...
Wow - it was Brian's birthday yesterday and we all missed it!! So .............. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRIAN and many happy returns. I'm not going to be the one to say how many years, but he's still younger than me. Martyn
I am after the brake reservoir mounting cap/top clamp shown on the right in the picture. 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...
