My nephew gave her heaps but now she is ticking over like a TAG Heuer from the Philippines. As I can't seem to think about riding anything other than my juicy Tenere the TTR is now in the ha...

Tale of Two TTR's ....Read On only if you're interested in height issues or general clues about buying bikes. (comments or tips welcome..i'm still learning) As a TTR enthusiast i have ended up with two of them. A 2002 and a 2006. The newer bike is the latest addition and had done only 1600 km's when i boug...
98 OE enduro, I recently picked up a TTR250 but due to a change in circumstances I may not get the time to sort it out. I stands me at £1200 it has 12 months tax and Mot until December.It needs the minimum of a Generator cover and probably a Sprag clutch etc, not been stripped yet. Here is the original ad;...
Hello fellow TTR riders, After fitting the main nozzle from an old 4GY 1994 model I thought it was only ''fitting'' to take it for a test run. Let me tell you- doing this has made the performance much better and the O-ring fitted makes it a lot ''smoother''. Here is a vid of the test run... [video=http://...
Today I went out for a ride with Steve and Rob………… Steve on his OE and Rob on the Serow equipped with a tow rope and hells angel rear Maltese cross as a rear light. We started at Hatherleigh and rode masses of lanes ranging from water crossings to long picturesque ones with a great mix of everything.I was su...

Back home now - great company, great weather, and very nice pasties/ice creams/pot of tea and carrot cake Rode 43 "green lanes". Only covered 49 miles in 6 hours. I must confess the snack stops did take up a bit of time Ride report to follow on this thread! Brian
This would have been asked before I guess but here goes. What engine oil seems to work in the TTR ? I had been using a racing 4T (maxima) oil in the XR & never had a problem, been thinking about a semi Syn oil 10w 40, I'm using the same in my Triumph's but they ask for a semi syn oil so I'm using 10w 40 Maxima. ...
Hello All, Well after years of being badgered to get an off road bike (by my road and off roading bike mates) I have almost done it (after robbing a small bank of corse..)..I pick up my bike tomorrow evening (Thursday)..YAY! I have been road riding since I did my DA in 2000 and have a FZ1n, so keeping it in...

Some times when I turn the ignition on and press the starter button nothing happens except a clicking noise, which I presume is the solanoid throw in, if I put in gear and turn the engine over pull in the clutch and press the botton it fires up, It doesent do it all the time, ut too often for my liking.
Can't believe Yamaha dealers. I have dismantled my carburetor after years of not riding the bike. The o-ring on the main nozzle was deteriorated and fell apart in my hand. So off to the local Yamaha dealer to get an o-ring ( nozzle is fine just needs a soak to clean up ) Dealer informs me that you can not j...
My 2010 TTR250 lives in the Philippines and I fly there from New Zealand every holidays. My brother who lives there also owns an identical bike and we do a lot of trail riding and long distance riding. Returning to NZ last year I had left my bike in storage. Unfortunately a flash flood occurred in Febru...
Hello fellow TTR250 owners, greetings from Australia! I thought I would do a quick update on my TTR for those interested (if anyone is lol). It has now done over 1600 KM had 5 oil changes and is fully run in. All adjustments are out of the way and the mods I have done have OBVIOUSLY made a huge improvemen...
Hi, I would like know if anybody have found a solution for fix all the mud entering the front sprocket cover. My TTR250 has not digital speedometer and for me, it is the worse bad feature from the TTR. The mud enter around the front sprocket and it can break the chain easily, it has happened to me two times...
After riding old 2 strokes when I was young, I decided I wanted to get back into it and do some riding with my kids. I had a '79 Suzuki PE250 and later an '81 PE250. They are a bit hard to ride in a tame fashion with kids who are learning. Also, white knuckle riding with the kids is not a good idea. I had started...
Took my first ride of any length yesterday, around 45 miles, nearly all dirt & probably a third of that, fairly rough woods trails. I was also able to implement a few things I learned of here on the forum & that definitely made things more enjoyable. I have added a skid plate, so I didn't worry abo...
