Hello Just completed 3 magnificent days with John Stains West Coast Trail Bike Safari through South West of WA. We started at Johns base in Kirup, hacked through bush trails, scrub, tall timber, pines, creeks, fire breaks, hill climbs through to Pemberton. There were 13 bikes , only 2 air cooled 1 x T...
Hi, I've been riding bikes for longer than I want to admit to and have recently added a TTR to my garage. I am based close to Drayton Manor Park, Tamworth and hope to have a go at "green laning". Unfortunately, I don't know where I can go.........guess I need to join the TRF and take it from there...
One of our customers mentioned in his email:We rode this year http://rideonmt.blogspot.com/ the infamous road to Tynda and beyond to Sachalin(Eastern Russia) following the BAM railway with a TTR and a XR600. The XR broke down (very rare) but the TTR went on as happy as can be. In 2 years from now we wil...
OK, first off, when sitting still and idling the engine just purrs and when you give a a good rev and hold it still the same just a louder faster purr, I even have a medical Stethoscope and there are no strange noises coming from the head or really anywhere Now when on the trail and you crank on the gas slowly...
I've just purchased this bike with a Big Gun exhaust system. It is way too loud for me (and probably my neighbors). I would like to buy a stock muffler, as I understand that they are nice and quiet. I am willing to give up a few hp for a little more quiet. I have the stock header pipe, but no muffler. I am in...
Hi, has anyone out there got a standard silencer for sale? Not sure how this website works, can we pm each other? Any way let me know via this website if you can help and we'll take it from there. Cheers!
Took the TTR out for its first extended (60 mi) off-tarmac trip on a fun dirt road along the crest of the mountain range above the Big Sur Coast in California. It really performed well and I felt very comfortable on it. A great day for riding in a favorite place.
I now have most of the stock muffler (Yamaha 5GF-14711) that I need, but I am still missing the restrictor that fits in the very end of the tail pipe (Images below.) Does anyone have one of these (maybe out of an old, beat-up exhaust system that is no longer usable) that they would be willing to sell me? S...

Hello, all. I just purchased a 2,000 TT-R250. I am hoping that this will be a good all-around off-road bike for me. Besides showing very well, it is also has a street license--not very common in California. So far...I really like this bike. The bike apparently sat a great deal, so it seems that the c...
Hi all, basic questions time. I haven't got any rim locks, but guess they would be a good idea, I have a couple of rubber bungs- so: Do I just buy some locks and they are really straight forward to attach? Do I need a certain size (s) Can I really muff it up as I'm not sure really what I'm doing. Thanks as ever
70 miles today green laning and took in three counties Cumbria , Lancashire and North Yorks. TTR behaved wonderfull and had a couple of WR's, Huski , DRZ and a KLX for company. Parked up at Devils bridge Kirby Lonsdale for a butty and brew with the usual bike polishers who commented on the smell of bur...
Brian i read your article at ttr250.com but i couldnt understand which main jet and pilot jet is the best for a 1993 model. My bike is 74mm,standard exhaust and Teikei30 carburator. You know which are the best main and pilot jets for this bike??
I have now vacated my storage "facility" where I had been keeping my TTR250s that I rescued from Spain so I am a bit over run with the things here at TTR Towers to the extent that there are a couple of 'em lurking on the lawn with plastic macs on I have started going through them with a view to sell...
Hello all, having come from a trialling back ground, I have decided to have a go at Green Laneing and this week I have bought a TTR250 Open Enduro. The bike I am told is built on a 1993 frame, with a 2004 5GF engine having a Wossner graphite coated forged piston, CRD performance exhaust system,SHOWA 47mm i...
Does anyone happen to have a broken indicator switch unit lying around? Mine works fine but the bloomin little bit of plastic on the end of the tiny indicator stalk disappeared on my last ride. I think it was held in by a minature screw underneath and i guess that vibrated out. I'm selling the bike soon an...

Hi guys, I have taken the plunge and bought a 1994 TTR Raid so as to go out with my mate who has a WR250. I absolutely love it, and have got a bit of laning done along with a lot of road miles since I got it a couple of months ago. It needs a bit of TLC but I think that was reflected in the £650 price which didn't seem t...

Hi all Can anyone tell me what this thing is, I pulled it appart the other day and it was full of water and the various parts were all full of sludge, so it's all clean now but what does it do and is it even needed ? Can't I just connect the breather pipe from the head streight to the airbox ? Pic Thanks Steve
