Was around at a mates place and he pulled this magazine out his shed cupboard, article on the privately developed but funded by Yamaha Australia, TTR250 - WR250 development / hybrid / racer.
Hi, which colour cable is the switched live or ACC ignition feed closest to the instrument panel that I can tap into to supply an aftermarket GPS speedo? The speedo has an internal memory and I don't want it to be permanently live. I will obviously install an inline fuse as it's draw is 3amp max. My bike is...
Hello. I have an old and rather excessively modified non-running TTR250 that I've set aside because of all the issues it kept getting. I'm wondering if it's even worth fixing this thing as I've already sank over $1000 on repairs alone and it still keeps getting issues. This thing has lived in the mecha...
I am new to the forum and i bought a 2003 TTR250 about 2 months ago. It is a U. S. model so i am wondering what i need to make it street legal. I want to use factory parts if possible, turn signals, horn, brake switches and the like. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Hi all, I am reluctantly selling my Raid, which I bought to commute to work with. I finished recommissioning it and then Covid hit! I will not need it anymore as I will be working from home for the foreseeable future. if anyone is on the look out for one, then let me know and I will add more details of what...
Hi, I'm Steak, Bought my first TTR earlier this year and I'm smitten with it. I needed a lightweight bike due to a few medical gremlins and this suits me just fine. I mainly scratch around the country lanes of Staffordshire and it always puts a smile on my face. Like myself, the bike has a few gremlins to so...
I just spotted this in a Trail (the members' magazine of the UK Trail Riders Fellowship) article written by the Devon TRF Group chairman Sean Comber. I gotta agree with him although I understand the TTR350 (using the Totally TTRs kit) is even better
Hi, My 1997 Open enduro is regrettably for sale, the bike has had some restoration work done but I have broken my right clavicle twice since buying it so riding is completely off the table. Has approximately 25k miles and is mechanically/electronically sound. Starting with the pictures. The kitte...
Just got back yesterday from a week up in the Flinders ranges in the North of South Australia, 500kms from Adelaide, we take the bikes in the trailer up & back & stay at Angorichina village, they have fuel & supplies if required. 13 riders ranging from 40 to 70 yrs old, I did 1200 odd kms on the...
Hello everyone, just bought a TTR from 2005 but the speedometer was not mounted. Now I try to put it back but it seems not to fit (the holes are not aligned). Can one of you take a picture of the mounting points of the speedometer so I understand how it should me mounted? Thanks in advance for your help! Bori...
Just recorded a vid of my TTR - just got it last week. Sometimes there's a heavy clunk when I kill the engine, sometimes no clunk, sometimes just a small one. I'm hoping someone with experience of these things can shed some light. Thanks, Paul -- Edited by PaulF...
First ride on the TTR since I stripped it last week, I was chasing a handling issue mainly on turn in, I had checked the swingarm for movement, checked the steering head bearings, tried different tyres etc. After riding the bike last week I stripped the steering, the lower steering bearings were bugge...
My son came home for the weekend we got the Dr and ttr out in the local forest starting to get a bit dusty. Got out for about four hours of tighter stuff
Heidenau K60 in 130/80/18 on the left. Pirelli MT21 in 120/80/18 Michelin Tracker in 100/100/18 on the right. These are the only tyres I've tried so far so the comments are relative to these three tyres in UK conditions. I am searching for a green lane/TET tyre. Heidenau's were comfortable and fun on r...

Hi, I'm Paul, I just got my first TTR250 last week, for greenlaning round Gloucestershire. It's a 2000 blue one with the plastic tank, although it has the purple wheels too. Not sure I believe the mileage (8k, they must have been very hard miles!) it's a bit tattier than I first thought so expecting to fi...

It's not a TTR but is a twofiddy......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8abVgo0JOA If you have idle moments you might enjoy Roz's adventures (there are other vids). She is quite a card and very much a talker - and not a bad adventure riding blogger. Ciao. I hope you are all covid free and wel...
I bought my son, a TTR-250 2001 model. He is 6'3 and the previous owner was 5' nothing. He had cut most of the foam out of the seat and the vinyl seat cover had perished. So I bought some foam and Vinyl from Clark Rubber in Sydney. The foam was cheap because in was an off cut. I had to glue two pieces together...

I've only just got my 2001 TTR and have noticed a problem with the speedo. When I take off for a ride the speedo needle doesn't move but the odometer is clicking over, which suggests to me that the drive cable is doing its job. After some time and a solid whack on the speedo it jumps to life and is OK for the res...
