I seem to spend a lot of time waiting for work to be done by tradesmen which is delaying my other projects so, being a gluton for punishment, I thought I would see what I could do with this Raid: I have the cylinder head and other bits in boxes but there are a few bonuses - kickstart, decompressor (but missin...

Ok. This is what happened. I got the TTR home. Took a short test ride. Did not have patience to warm up properly. Stalled the engine couple of times. Plug fouled and the engine refused to start. Rolled to garage. I replaced the plug. Good spark. Still wont start. Puffs and spits to carb. Removed airbox. C...

Hi guys. I've been lurking around here for a while, trying to make a decision which dual purpose bike to buy I think I'm going to buy a brandnew one, because I don't know too much about engines, and I didn't feel comfortable with the people I rang up who are selling their bikes. I don't want a bike that's b...

Does anyone know what material the lefthand generator/starter cover is made from, does anyone know if it can be welded where it cracks inside around the starter motor?
The bike has been cutting out in what I would call not to deep water..I have had it in much deeper water that this many times and with no probs. I went to my friends bike shop today and we went through checking a few things and on squirting wd40 around the carb manifold interface it started to cough and splut...

I'm after a spare gear change lever as back up. Not seen them come up on ebay for quite a while, but I guess there must be other levers with roughly the same length, and with the same spline. Anyone got any info? Cheers Lee
