After having bash plates on my last 3 bikes I decided it was needed for the green laning on the TTR. I am off on Sunday for a play down the lanes and really needed a decent sump and engine protection so bought the TTR bash plate Brian supplies. Most bash plates I have fitted need some sort of modification or d...
This weeks MCN is worth a look. They took four 250cc trail bikes, to Eastern Europe and back, one of which was a TTR that all the testers liked and found nothing with it to dislike. Worth reading. Peter
Haven't picked it up yet, but have just committed to buy a hopefully reasonable TT250R. Hopefully the start of a beautiful relationship. I presently have a Kawasaki W650 road bike. -- Edited by TTRfan on Saturday 6th of April 2013 09:23:13 AM

I only recently brought my TTR on a private sale, good clean bike but, it would only run on choke but the engine sounded ok so I brought it. I found it was so clean due to over pressure washing water and some sort of cleaner had got into the carb via the air box. I stripped and cleaned out the carb, drained clea...

I have a 2003 TTR 250 which seems to have an oil leak either from the "o" ring on the starter motor or somewhere close by. There also seems to have oil seeping out the grommet with 4 wires coming out of it, just in front of the front chain sprocket. Thank you Terry.
Royal Mail has now replaced “packet” rates with “Small”, “Medium” and “Large” parcels and increased their charges. The cheapest “Small” parcel cost is such that the p&p on many small & light items contributes to more than 50% of the cost!For the time being, we have removed the p&p amou...
Up for sale is this headlight I bought for my ttr as the original was very poor in the dark so I bought this one. I am 99% sure it is a polisport one, there is a bit of wiring loom connected to it so there is no need to cut the original wiring, I just slotted the spade connectors into the original plug then used so...
Hello all, I need a new surround for my TTR's headlight (don't ask!) However, Mine looks like this: But on eBay they are like this or this which are clearly different.

Hi all, best wishes for the festive season and a happy new year to one and all. I have a question about a ttr that a friend of mine has and it is this, his bike is seems like it is snatching when driving slowly and there seems to be a roughness in the drive train almost as if it is missing and then catching again...
Hi All, Having had no problems with starting for the first few months my 2004 TTR 250 is now a reluctant starter. If I start on choke then doesn't like to be left on it for anything more than a minute before cutting out. Today was made worse because I had flat battery and had to kick start it. After sever...
It is with regret that I am forced to list my Yamaha TTR 250 for sale. It has been sat in my garage for a couple of years now with only occasional use to maintain it. This is due to two unfortunate injurys in August 2011 and August 2012 which have left me unfit to ride a bike for the forseeable future. This i...
I was out riding dirt about a week ago and I took a hill a little too steep for me. My boot slipped off the edge of the hill (small trail) and I tumbled down the edge, dropping the bike. I was fine but when I lifted my bike back upright I noticed that the gear shift lever had broken (right at the point where the le...
