Trying out a new back tyre for a run to Spain plus 5 days of rocky trails. My normal tyre for this has been a Heidenau K60, 130/80 x 18 but it's getting a bit worn out. My lovely knobbly Maxxis IT would be toast after the 1000 miles of 65mph tar plus maybe 400 of track so I'm experimenting with a Michelin Anakee...
Spotted a minor fuel leak today seems to be around the pilot screw. Would a worn/damaged O ring cause a fuel leak? Or is the O ring just an air seal? Thanks
Hey all, First post on the forum. I ve been reading your posts for some time now and they ve really helped me out with some issues and questions I ´ve had.

Hi All Some help needed please...

The Raid one measures 444mm eye to eye, is the OE or Bluey the same? I don't want to take the one off my bike f...

My front brake problems seem to be never ending. I have serviced the master cylinder using the all balls kit. I have also serviced the front caliper. I'm still unable to bleed the system, i simply cannot get any pressure build up. After many tests it seems air is getting in via the piston in the master cyl...

Hi All, I am having a few problems with my new to me TTR. The bike hadn't really been used for 3 0r 4 years, although it had been started and run and MOT'd every year and was just ridden, briefly, and Mot'd when I bought it. Fresh fuel, clean air filter, new plug, test ride. Starts, idle's and picks up perfec...
Does all the plastics from a blue bike fit straight on to a oe model. ( tank seat. Fenders ) I think it might be good to put. Plastic tank on bike , as it’s hes first bike bea shame to damage metal one and blue panels are cheaper and easyeir to get hold of. !
So, small problem, I was about to remove my oil drain bolt, I felt very confident in how my socket was placed on the bolt, long story short the bolt did not turn but just rounded out. What am I supposed to do now? (P.s the socket was firmly seated on the bolt)
new heidenau tyres seem to get reasonable review for 50/50 tyres, and £60 rack off amazon i’ll let you know how they go. Plus few bits off Steve&Lisa, ready for adventure 😎

So long story short I have decided to sell my blue beauty, I'm going through the process of cleaning up and preparing everything for the next owner, I am however stuck on what the price should be, I have a 2001 with no mods. I am wondering what the average selling price is.

Looking for a complete seat. Can have tears in cover. My 30" inseam causes issues touching when on the steep knarly single track. Need 1 to shave down and recover. Thanks in advance.
I’ve just got hold of a 350 engine wondering if anyone has fitted one in a 250 frame. ? Because I think putting a 350 big bore kit would stress bottom half to much ! Maybe I’m wrong ? And if I can get 350 engine in then all I would have to do is strengthen frame up well not me but my good friend. Who used to do m...
