I'm not sure if anybody has come across this before but my blue plastic tank has started to change colour from blue to black. It's mainly on the top and bottom of the tank where no sticker were.

Hi All, Two weeks ago my TTR 230 was written off by a cager turning in front of me. The bike did not survive. I have since managed to pick up a 2004 TTr 250, which was imported and used by our Police Services for a while. The one I have was snapped up by a private owner and I am the second person to have it. Only 20,...

Has anyone bought longer clutch and throttle cables from Venhill recently? They are supposed to have the patterns to make them up. What sort of extra length is needed to accommodate Dakar Highs? My bro' tried re-routing his throttle cables but they still bind with his RC Renthals and needs longer one...

My bike developed a problem when trying to start the engine. Pressing the start button would occasionally just produce a click from the solenoid, but the starter would not turn. Repeatedly pressing the button would eventually trigger the starter motor and turn over the engine. The problem was gett...
Hi All I have the TTR250 with the factory GYTR muffler.. I didn't mind the noise till I bought my son the same bike, however his has the White Brothers E-Series muffler. This is so much quieter.

Okay! My "new" 2011 TTR250 is arriving in a few days, and I'm sorting out what tools I need for the workshop. What would you guys suggest? It's been a long time since I've owned a bike, and suggested tools for the 250 would be appreciated. Also, what gap have you got set on your TTR250? Cheers
Planning on doing the Simpson Desert in the second half of this year. Never been out there. Anyone here done it on a TTR? A very competent friend, with direct experience of many trips across the Simpson, reckons he struggled on a DR250 compared with any DR650, that did it easily. Extra grunt to get out o...
Hi All, I had a large departure from my TTR a while back which thankfully damaged the bike and my ego more than me! Most has been easily fixable but the stud on which the brake lever is mounted snapped at the thread! It looks as though maybe there has been a previous repair! Any bright ideas haw to get the thr...
With Troy (Advrider name Trokel). Bit further for this two dayer. Troy came up from Albury and spent the night, so we could get away at a reasonable time. My Base Camp prepared maps don't work if they don't get loaded onto the Zumo. I didn't realise the first day wasn't loaded until about the start of t...

We decided to take the scenic route to Bude and then...

A day ride, with Dobbo. We were going for lunch at Jingellic. Took a little longer than I suspected. Woomargama NP would be around 100km away by the normal route. Who wants to be normal? Lunch on the return ride was pretty late in the day. And I've bought new tubes too. I've been riding with spare tube...
I've been out a few times over summer, with different blokes from the group we have via Adventure Rider. I've used the GoPro and then taken longer than the rides lasted to edit the recordings. So, figured I could share. Not particularly good videos, of course but not unbroken / unedited either. Thi...
