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...

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.

Hello again. My 'Blue tank' model TTR came to me with 14 - 44 gearing and a 106 link chain. I want to lower the gearing while ideally using the current chain, which is in good condition. I read on this site that 13 - 48 fits well with the standard 108 link chain. But I also read that 14-44 was standard gearing a...
Mrs Cubber decided she needed some shopping therapy so disappeared early mid morning for the Topsham area of Devon and Dart's Farm. I decided that I needed some TTR therapy so donned my boots and waterproofs (even put my Sealskinz socks on for their first try) and off we went. It was decidedly chilly bu...

After a 40 year gap I'm back on motorbikes, I lived bikes for about 10 yrs until I got married first time in 1975. before that I used to make up trail bikes and mainly ride in wales, also I entered the Exeter trial twice. My last trail bike was a Bultaco Matador, which I rode up Snowdon one easter - I would get...

Also with trail riding being on/off road, what sort of pressures do you use? I often ride out 30 miles to the trail meet, so is it a goo...

Finally had the engine sealed up today and got to fitting the clutch cable. and check the clutch. Holy Cow but it is stiff / heavy compared to my kxf250 and crf250x. The clutch has been changed at some point as the nuts had a few marks on them and the basket has very little wear.I am thinking someone has fit...
I have a 93 OE with a raid tank so will either take a Raid seat to match the tank, or a sound, leak free OE tank to match the current seat on the bike. Anyone got either of these they would be willing to sell on? cheers Ian
