Hi All, My TTR is rattling a lot more than I remember it doing at the end of last year. When riding at a reasonable pace (about 40mph) on a road (tarmac) and neither accelerating (under-load) nor decelerating (coasting) the top end has a distinct quite loud rattle that I don't recall it used to do. It's al...
Brian had been regretting doing nothing but toiling all day with TTRs everywhere so he decided to ask if anyone woull like to have a run out. I thought that it was some time since I was last out - so I volunteered to go with him. As did Bob, Rick, Trev and Simon. The Super Six. All but one of us were riding our TT...
I did a lot of searching and read a lot about uncorking the TTR250 with a lot of good information. The problem that I am running into are the specifics. I have a 1993-1994 TTR250 that I just got professionally painted black. It looks incredible! I'll post some pictures when I can. As I looked for all of th...
Hi guys can anyone help? im looking to put my 2004 TT-R 250 engine into an aluminium frame, does anyone know what bike is closest to the TT-R in engine cavity size and mounting placement? i purely use my bike for enduro and i find it is becoming increasingly hard to climb over trees and such in the forest pu...
Hi, In order to grow old naturally I am in the process of putting a disc front brake onto my XT500 - the existing single leading shoe brake is painfully inadequate I got hold of a pair of forks from a wrecker (who shall remain nameless but not blameless He appears to have supplied either the wrong wheel and...
I'm fixing up my friend's 03 ttr 250 that has been stored outside for the last 3 years. The bike had previously ran good before being neglected, so he handed the bike over for a quick tune up and carb clean. When I disassembled the bike, I noticed a lot of dirt in the air boot along with some in the carb. ...
hi,have just bought a ttr250 today after finally deciding my mz660 is starting to look a bit sorry for it's self after using it on the trails,that and the fact it weighs a ton when i have to pick it up too. one small question of many i expect,is it normal for the tank to rust where it meets the side panels? ha...
Hi guys, new one checking in from Barcelona with a 2 days old (in my hands) TTR 250, actuality it's a 2002 model. Went for a ride to check the off road abilities and was quite impressed with the little bike. I'll be using it mainly to commute 15km everyday so the knobies have to go, any suggestions for a 50/5...
We ride the Egyptian deserts with my wife. I ride a KTM Rallye 660, and my wife rides the TTR250. It is a great bike, fitted with a 18L Acerbis tank and a free flow exh system. The carb has begun to act up and I have been searching info about swapping for a Keihin FCR 37 (that's how I ran into your forum here!). S...
Hi im looking at getting a polisport replacement for my light for a weight saving, does anyone know the weight of the standard blue light and plastic? the polisport one is 625g so i would like to know how much weight saving i would be getting for 100 dollars.
Nothing special about it... has a Pro-Circuit T4 pipe and I just put some aftermarket bars on it that are a little taller and less pullback. Just amazed at how much fun this bike is to ride. Much more fun than a 2005 KTM 450sx or '97 CR250! So easy to ride... and more than capable! [IMG]https://i17.photo...
Hi Everybody, My name is Charlie and I live in the Kansas City area. I bought my 2003 TTR250 back in late October. It's had a couple issues since I bought it, but I really like it alot. I paid $800.00 US. It's been a long time since I've ridden a motorcycle, but I had been wanting to get back into it for quite...

A quick and hopefully simple quetsion; I have seen plenty of choice of graphics sets availabile for the tank, mudgaurds etc. But I would like plain white stickers for above the headlight and side panels (i.e the number boards if it were a MX bike). What do you use for these? Thx, Nigel.
Following on from the Wanted – Shorty levers ://ttr250.activeboard.com/t45326698/shorty-levers/ I have obtained a pair of DRC shorty levers and they are exactly what I was hoping for. When I bought my bike it had the Acerbis hand guards with aluminium bars fitted and the brake and clutch lever...
Here is a pic of Lee in action in last weekend's Northern Classic Reliability Trial. Apparently the TTR never missed a beat. Congratulations Lee! Brian Copyright acknowledged!
Another sprocket/chain question but I'm not asking for gearing combos so hopefully it's an easy one I've just recently put a Pirelli MT43 on the rear but it's really close to the swingarm (so close I've had to remove the mudguard as it was rubbing on it; when the bike was still it had about 2-3...
Hey guys, sold my TTR ages ago now and recently found the owners manual and service booklet from when the bike was purchased new. Both are in excellent condition and come in the plastic wallet thing from the shop. Handy for service schedules and basic maintanence info. Here's the deal - make a donation...
Just bought this bike and would lie to know is there a service manual available? I may be being dense but can only seem to find later variants and the Haynes manual that coverts the Blue bikes. Sorry if I am being dense. Many thanks Stuart
Thought it about time to say hi. I have a 1993 OE which in it's standard form was lacking in fuel range and power. so first was a large acerbis xr400 tank. Fitted perfectly with some longer brackets to the engine mount and one at the seat, which hasn't been deformed. Sorted. On a recent trip to the States, I...
Went for a ride to Bruny Island and seven K's in got a wee bit of a flat. Found this great bike stand on the side of the road. It ended up being a fairly large tear, managed to get a patch on it but another few K's down the road it let go for good so it was back to the ferry at 40Kmh for the trip home. I have managed to...
I use Windows on my computer. Actually, it's running Windows XP Professional Version 2002 with Service Pack 3, but that's not vital. I have the wallpaper set to show my TTR. This is a small-sized example:- What does your computer have? Martyn
Hi, Just signed up and wanted to know where I can get a flywheel puller to fit an '03 TTR 250. Apparently they are not available at Yamaha dealers here anymore, and trying to find an aftermarket one has been a real pain. Can anyone tell me what size I need and any suggestions for here in the states as to where...
I have for sale a really well-made rack from Ventura in New Zealand. Also, see here A great accessory for your TTR. The sports rack can be slid out of its suports and reversed if you want to carry a passenger or extra luggage. See here The kit consists of the L brackets (the RH side one doubles up as a grab h...
