I have just started to run 95RON as apposed to 91RON Unleaded in my 97OE, the bike certainly runs better and cleaner i.e. no soot, but has been difficult to start electrically when cold. I don't have a hope in hell of kick starting it. Could this be the fuel or has something else eventuated?
Quick reply needed- there is a raid tank ending shortly on Ebay. Question is will the Raid tank (& I suspect I'll have to find a Raid seat to fit with it) fit on an 02 blue TTR? 1st time I used my new TTR was on a long weekend in the Pyrennes. Another of the blokes wrote it up, hopefully the link will work; ht...
Stopped on a ride today and noticed there was no rear chain block/guide/stay fingy. Bolts up at the rear of the swingarm. Am I tempting death by running without it, does anyone have one in Orstraya mate. There is one in the USA on Ebay for around $37Au delivered but prefer to keep things local, if anyone...
Hi All Does anyone have any clear photo's of the rear disc guard, mine came with the guard, Damaged with one of the holes ripped out but there is also some sort of mounting bracket missing I think, I looked in the manual but couldn't find anything Cheers Steve
When I bought the old girl it only had 2 original indicators that stayed on when you flicked the switch. I purchased some LED fancy ones from Ebay and fitted them up front and rear but they still stayed on. Well after replacing the flasher can twice I finally purchased the correct flasher to suit the LED'...
my piston rings were bad so I am changing the gaskets and seals while I am in there. Question is, do I absolutely need a valve spring compressor to replace the valve seals? also, the cam chain sprockets do not exactly line up prefectly. Should I be worried about that? It was running great before it starte...
First of all, congratulations for such a great site. I am not a bike rider, so do not know much about these wonderful machines. Nevertheless, I am trying to learn as much as possible, I want to give my step-son a new bike. He recently had to sell his old 1988 Kawasaki (KLX 200?) to buy a car and I want to do som...

Hey Guys, Just recently bought a 2010 TTR250, and im loving it. Unfortunately i dont know much about motorcycles as i am new to riding, but i was just curious if you need to do any chain maintenance every now and then just so the life span is longer and less hassles? If so what do i need to do and the products i...

Paul's WR450F needed an engine rebuild so the birthday run was about 6 weeks later than it should have been but at least we did it Paul's bike was only finished and MOTd on Saturday so it was very tight! He asked me to plan and lead the run. Six of us made it on the day which is the maximum I am happy to lead. Me...
I am looking at a 2000 TTR250 that a guy has for sale near me. Here are the stats:

2. 266 confirmed orig. miles
3. Taken to shop, cleaned up, and running like a c...

Bob, Brian and I, on our trusty Yamaha TTRs went riding in convoy today. It was talked about at a previous social evening last Tuesday and originally we agreed that Thursday would be the day. Sadly, the weather man took it into his head that Friday would be a better day. Bob arrived at Brian's early and th...
My 2003 bike starts fine and ticks over OK and it also pulls well when accellerating however at constant village speeds it feels like it may cut out and stutters a bit. When this happens if I open the throttle it will suddenly accelerate almost like an on/off switch, not smoothly at all. It can be lived wi...
Alright I posted last week that I ran the bike out of gas and it stopped running and now can't get it started back running. Well come to find out my 4 year old son filled the gas tank up with water. Got everything drained, cleaned etc new fuel and battery installed cause he also left the switch on for 2 days it...

Hello ALL I am a despairing new owner of a TTR250 which needs a new sprag clutch. I had learned that a rear axle made a good substitute for a flywheel puller, unfortunately my lack of brain and heavy handedness has meant I've threaded the flywheel. does anyone have any tips on how to remove the flywheel-w...

I've just bought a k plate with a smoking fault, it looks like the previous fella ran it short on oil and nipped it up, I've now got the barrel off to inspect for damage and it needs a re-bore and piston kit and very unluckily a con rod !! id like t...
