Hi all, very new to my TT250R (Raid) in fact I've only gotten as far as paying a deposit, will post a piccie when I've picked her up, and cleaned her up a bit. She will never be mint, but she will be used. Looking forward to picking brains and nicking good ideas
Has anyone had to replace the electrics under the seat ? the wirers that are under the seat that run from the rear of the bike to the core appear to have been damaged by wet and mud . I was curious to how differcult this would be ?? cheers Rich
This is not a question most dirt-only riders could answer, but... Has anybody had experince with AirHawk inflatable seat cushions? Sometimes we do eight or nine hours in the saddle on-road and the butt suffers cruelly...
How many times have you looked at some parts lists only to find that the TTR isn't listed I need some brake pads soon and thay are currently 50% off but no TTR listed, does anyone know for certain if any other makes or model are compatable with the TTR Thanks Steve
Sadly I'm the opposite of the other posters on here. I'm about to put my TTR up for sale and am also looking for a small part for it. Thought it would be more polite to say hello rather than registering, sticking an ad up and saying nothing. In my defence, I have bought a couple of bits from Brian! Can say for...
Hello I bought a new TTR250 2006 model and have taken it out about 2 times in the last 5 years, because all the crap going on at work, the missus hassling me to take her shopping and holidays, kids causing drama, mum visiting.. blar blar. Anyway have decided to tell everyone to nick off this year, and hav...
Yet another successful event from the Welsh Trail Riders Association, althought there were issues on Saturday as the ambulances hadn't turned up and so the whole thing was delayed by about three hours. Thankfully I was just in for Sunday so I wasn't effected. The course was made up of three 35 mile lap...

I am a member of the Black Country TRF and i have sold my KTM 400 exc for a ttr 250 same vintages (2004) Why, some may say? Well its because i could not blame the bike when i failed to negotiate that awkward obst...
I am having to vacate my storage "facility" where I have been keeping my TTR250s I rescued from Spain so I am a bit over run with the things here at TTR Towers I am going to go through them and sell the best as "projects bikes" to get a quick gain in garage space and will break the rest f...

Hi, Swapped my YZ250 last year for a 2006 250TTR and love it. Had no issues until a moderate crash put the throttle grip into a bind with the barkbuster. I had to remove the throttle assy to correct the problem, I had no issues with the reassembly but the bike now idles very rough with a mild backfire and se...
Just a quick message to say thanks to those owners who have made the switch from the old Yahoo forum and also to those new owners that have found us here The forum seems quite easy to administer and keep out the spammers (famous last words!) and it is great to be able to add pics to messages so easily. Thank...
Hi Guys, well this is my first post here for some time, so to recap quickly, my first dirt bike for 25 plus years, was going to buy a XR at first but decided after riding a friends DR250 that an electric leg was the go, so swapped to a DRZ250 but after a while decided the extra weight and water cooling wasn't fo...
Iv seen the clear vent/ breather pipes for the carb on some more modern Ike and was wondering if anyone knew where to get them from. I think it would be an awesome idea as you can see if the pipes are clogged or full of debris.
Hi. Maybe a stuppid question, I have only recently bought my TTR250 1993 (K reg), Which spark plug do i need and what size plug spanner please?. Thanks Steve (Nugget)
I have not had to do this before but took the first step today to register an Open Enduro I bought from eBay without a V5. In order to get an age-related registration number the DVLA require a manufacturer's dating letter, and the bike to be MOTd and insured. I rang Yamaha UK today and got straight through...

I sold my TTR a couple of months ago and was just informed by the buyer that it was stolen from his place near Canterbury in Sydney. He had gone overseas and returned to find no bike. It not really my concern any more but still really pisses me off, my brother had his dirt bike stolen in Sydney a year or so ago...
Hi all, it's my first post. My '97 white TTR needs a new piston, rings, etc. US parts dealer's websites only show OEM part numbers for 2001 and later models. Can somebody confirm if those numbers are valid for older TTRs? Also, I'm considering to install a WISECO kit, part number 4689M07350, which is de...
