Having confusing problems with my '94 Raid. If I charge the battery up and put it on the bike the bike will start and run perfectly happily. However most times (but not every time) after about 1/2 hour the battery will be flat but the motor will still run as long as I don't stop it (then it must be bump starte...
Im after a gps. can anyone recommend a model that has roads, fire trails etc and the option to add maps downloaded? doesnt have to be colour but that would be nice, and im after the cheapest one that will have the above features to use when exploring new areas.
Has anyone out there in TTR land opened up a standard silencer? I'm interested to know what's in there, ie a cat. I quite fancy getting hold of a second hand one and taking the grinder/mig to it.
Hi chaps, I have got a leaky something on my engine, front right hand side possibly top of the crank case or similar. I've taken some photos, since them I have cleaned round it to try and identify where it seeps from in future, however I just wondered whether by looking at the pictures anyone could have a...
Just installed a number 3, 5.5L Nomad Tank. It is fantastic. It came complete with mounting bolts, rubber straps, fuel tap, fuel filter, fuel hoses and T piece to add fuel line into main line. All parts look well made, and fees very strong. I found it quite hard to get the hose squeezed on to the T piece,...
Finally got out on the green lanes with my very good friend Matt. He has a Yamaha WR250R on a 60 plate and has gone on quite a few TRF runs over the last year, and took me out to show me a good mix of routes. First up was meeting at Keighley Gate. This is part of my daily commute so I was quite happy blasting along h...
So, I'm now about 3 weeks into the world of motorcycling. Getting a good feel for the limits of the bike, and working on my stance, slow-speed maneuvers, etc. I've decided this weekend to leave the safe confines of my backyard and empty next-door lot for a little bit of offroading. As luck would have it,...
Hi, I want to increase the spring rate in my forks a bit to compensate for the addition of a 22l acerbis tank. i figure the neatest way would be to get a factory spacer tube and use a lathe to machine off a couple of 4mm (ish) sections does anyone have a spare spacer or two they can sell me? if so pm me i should be a...

I have a set of cycleracks on the way from the US, see www.cycleracks.com.
Will be a couple of weeks delivery so will have to wait for a posting on the TTR site.

If i was to say go to the coast at sea level, would i need to rejet, or would it simply run richer and still ride ok. sa...
G'day guys, Just picked up my brand spankin' new TTR250 yesterday afternoon, having only just getting my motorbike learners on Saturday, and have since just found the forum. Looking forward to contributing and learning lots from the guys and girls here.
i was under my bike today and looked up and was wondering if there would be any room under the rear fender at all to have some sort of storage, somewhere. like where the tail thingy that holds the license plate bolts on. I was also thinking what if the two bolts that hold the seat on were wing nuts, that would...
Hello, I'm Nate here in Michigan. Converted the 02 from dirt only to barely street legal last summer. Made the high/low switch mount, along with the rear brake switch mount, narrowed bars, and custom fitted bark busters. I need to get a little more top speed out of it in order to ride to the trails. ...
so i bought a tail light on ebay with a clear section down the bottom to shine some yellow light on the rear fender. i bought this so i could get rid of the black tail section and just put the license place on the back fender. the idea is that there is a globe that shines through the clear and lights up the plate...
