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...
Hello there! I live in Graham Washington, just south of Seattle. Been in and out of riding all my life. Now have a 04 TTR250. All stock right now, runs good and reliable. Going to do some small upgades. I have a 12 tooth sprokect on its way, and then some kind of exhaust, then a new rear tire. I have two sons,...
ok guys is it possible to remove a tyre with a mousse fitted instead of inner tube, without cutting the tyre off ?? is a pity if I have to cut a part worn
I realise I am looking for the proverbial rocking horse droppings but I gather here is as good as anywhere to start looking. Hoping to only spend around £1300-£1500 ish for the right bike, preferably with MOT, tax not as important and it doesn't have to be a paddock pony, though it does have to be reliabl...
Hi all, I was very pleased to learn through this site that it is possible to fit suspension linkage bolts and nipples from the earlier models to a blue tank model in order to be able to use a grease gun to grease the linkages.However, when I looked at the parts diagram for an earlier (White) model via the li...
This link was recently bought from a forum member but does not give the result for my requirements. It is in excellent condition with only a minimal defect to one seal but as there is a grease nipple installed,there is no fear of any substantial ingress. PM me for price and pics if required.

Hi all i am looking for the left hand grab handle for my ttr, ( the opposite side to the exhaust if anyone can help. They are the same on the blue or white models Thanks, Adam.
Hi folks I am relaxed about user information but, on occasions, it would be really useful if members could put their country name in their profile. Many thanks Brian
Hi Guys . It has been illuminating reading your Forum , as my son Charlie and I have just invested in a Raid c1995 ! Had to be that model as Charlie has an eye for "traditional " lines with bikes , so insisted that it should have a round headlight . He is keen to get to Morocco asp but I am attempting t...
Hi all. I am trying to move the front end of my blue ttr. so far I have undone the top yolk and removed it now how do I get the bottom yolk out ?? I have given it a ood tap and no movement , am I missing something ?? or not hitting the wooden block hard enough
See here - a fairly positive review! Why should you be interested in the report I hear you ask? Well, there are a few comparisons to the test rider's companion's TTR325 Robin Webb's 325 (or 315 to be accurate) uses the same Thumper conversion as I have done and is getting big mileage on it with no mecha...
For those looking for a ttr I have just spotted a 2005 one on eBay £1450 or best offer and looks very clean, it won't be there for long at that price so be quick!
Hi All My rear brake has been getting worse lately, it locks on the dirt way to easy and on the blacktop as well if your not careful It never used to be like that, the pads have 2-3mm left I removed, cleaned and regreased the brake lever pivot bolt but that didn't help, it is smoother though The piston moves i...

Hi All, welcome from sunny Cheshire, After many years deliberating I am finally hoping this year to cut my teeth in the world of green laning and fancy a TTR250 OE as my first steed. I am immersing myself in the forum and associated pages to learn as much as possible but will probably be on here with a list o...
