This was just run in OZ, 7000km in 14 days, Mountains, snow, desert. APC Rally site and thread on ADV Rider. I wonder how crazy, stupid or possible it would be to do on a TTR250. One guy completed it on his Vstrom 650, another guy did it on a WR250R, another on a DRZ400, plus many of the usual suspect long dist...
This is quite a common problem on TTRs and I have come across some ingenious repairs! The blue headlight surrounds are hard to come by second hand so it is worth repairing them. I apologise in advance for the poor quality of the pics. I think I had the flash suppressed I carry a fairly heavy Slime compre...
I am frequently asked about what after-market exhaust is best for the TTR. The requirement seems to be that it is light, reasonably quiet and sensibly priced.The problem is that I can't find anyone in the UK selling such exhausts. Has anyone else found one they can recommend?There seems to be a gap in t...
Purchased from Brian Sussex, I have had such fun on this bike I would recommend to anybody, Mr Sussex has been fantastic in aftersales, cant say more. -- Edited by carlobar999 on Tuesday 6th of September 2011 10:49:43 AM
Hello all, I am looking for a good condition Raid tank and seat to upgrade my white OE Supermoto. I'm not too bothered about the cosmetic condition of the paintwork on the tank, provided it has no nasty dents, rust or leaks. Likewise, the condition of the seat cover is unimportant, provided that the foa...
The important bit has broken off - see pic below. I am pretty sure it can't be repaired. Anyone got one off an old shock they would swap for some beer tokens? Also, anyone got any top bearing collars going spare? I always seem to break these as they are so brittle

I also cleanded the resevior out today and aswell and checked for leaks everywher...
I did about a 30 mile trail ride on my ttr last night, there was a bit of road work and a little mid but most of it was quite rough going stony track surface and plenty of large puddles! The trail tyres that are on the bike have possibly seen better days and are quite lethal on the mud, nearly lost the front end a...
Hi all Just about to pick up a 2004 TTR and looking to fit a 2'' lowering link to the rear suspension. Has anybody got one they'd like to part with? Cheers, Tony (Evesham - Worcs)
i recently put on a skid plate, and a new 14th front cog to my 06 ttr. i now see little puddles of oil on the ground where i park my bike. ?what is the fix ? it seems to be coming out the shifter peg in the case. easy or not so easy?

Bil...
I am currently working on two OE tanks. This was what one of them looked like before I started: Both tanks were pretty manky so I firstly had them both shot blasted to see what they looked like in the metal. I have since filled a couple of minor dents and repaired a small leak on one with Plastic Paddings Lea...
Bought a TTR recently and although the previous owner said the sprag was OK, it seemed to be making some noises when operating the starter which were extra to the usual bang on switch off Stripped it down today and found one of the most damaged sprags I have seen so far so it goes in my Black Museum! The inn...
Looking at the parts diagram there seem to be 2 chain wear guides. The big black one at the front 4GY-22151-00 and a small white at rear 3JD-22147-00 Are these the only wear guides and can someone verify the numbers for me. Also on the rear shock there is a rubber bump stop or something like that but I can'...
Quite enjoying the new forum, one thing i'd like is a "View First Unread" option, especially as the forum is getting busier and trawling through multiple posts to get to new ones is a bit annoying.
