I have been in email conversation with Peter Gray of Wilderness Wheels Morocco. They run a small fleet of blue TTRs alongside their KTM 450 EXCs. Peter says they find the TTR to be a totally competent off road bike in Morocco and is his preference over the KTMs for a ride over the mountains. He has passe...

Fellow TTR riders - This may be of assistance to you ...It is possible to remove and refit the spark plug without having to remove the petrol tank.Firstly, as mentioned by somebody else in the forum I used a smaller soft pipe gaffer taped onto my vacuum cleaner hose to suck out the dried mud and stones...

I have a 2004 ttr250 There is a K&N filter fitted and a motad exhaust fitted. Its worth noting my ttr stuttered at high revs,so I took out the uprated jets and replaced them with the original jets, the bike still pulls clean but does not stutter at high rpm anymore. Dave.

Sadly due to the family and a new toy I am letting my TTR go. I have hung on to it for the last 10 months thinking I may get back to riding it more than once a month and then only on roads, but no so it has to go. Great runner was used for a daily 6.6 mile round commute until new toy arrived. MOT until July Some se...
My 2004 originals are knackered. At 60 mph they self fold inwards I've seen small diamond shaped ones, maybe on here, but so far 'searching' for them hasn't been successful. What I'm after is something with a slightly wider span than originals, but less affected by wind when on the road. Any ideas folk...

So my mate has a white TTR250 which is in need of some TLC. The sprag was slipping so we decided to strip her down to fix it up. When trying to remove the flywheel I noticed the crank bearing had play in it and the flywheel can move up and down a fraction. Once finally removed (pain in the ass) we can see that the...
