I am looking for two base valves for my Raid front forks. The ones I found after disassembling my forks show evidence of some serious mechanical abuse, and some parts appear to be missing as well. See the pictures. I have no idea what the mechanic was trying to achieve... Maybe he didn't either , so he dec...
As the title suggests I got out on the TTR today, It was running out of rego tonight so last chance for a while with the warm weather on the way, next week will be from 39c to 43c, anyhow a quick 155km ride around the dirt & gravel roads in the Adelaide hills. Very dry & the gravel roads are very slippe...
These are the plastics taken off my "Weston" TTR that I am converting to a "blue" version of the TTR so are superfluous to my needs. The set includes three pieces of unobtanium (in that Yamaha can no longer supply them), both side panels and a rear mudguard. Also the front mudguard and upper fork protec...

I have had some cold starting problems on my 325 whereby it starts but quickly dies. I raised the pilot jet size up from 48 to 50 and it seemed to make an improvement but I haven't run the TTR often enough to test it thoroughly. I came across this video this morning and, even though the guy is dealing with a TT...

Has anyone bored out the Teikei on the TTR250? If So, what are your thoughts. I am nearing completion of my 325 build and was considering boring the Teikei so the bottom of the throat is the same as the top
I am under pressure to clear some room on my shelves so have reluctantly agreed to sell my collection of Trail Bike & Enduro Magazine (TBM) / Dirt Junkies mags. The May and October 2009 mags feature the WR250R. In fact the October mag asks if the WR250R is the best trailie ever See https://www.ebay....
Well, I am considering swapping the rear suspension and swing arms on my Raid and my standard TTR. I understand that the aluminum swing arm has a longer bolt. Not sure just which bolt. Since I would be swapping them I don't see this as much of a problem. Besides being lighter, are there any other bene...

Hi all I have had to re register on the forum, as not been on for sometime and lost my log on details. i had tried a more powerful headlight bulb, and when it blew, I noticed it had melted the inside of headlamp plastics. This meant i had to break the bulb holder to remove it. this is why I require just the bu...
WANTED- Headlamp bulb holder for blue model If anyone has a smashed or rusted out headlight, all I need is the bulb holder, as due to trying a higher wattage bulb has melted and damaged the internal plastics, and I had to break the bulb holder to get the bulb out. -- Edited by DaveC on Friday 14th of Feb...
So I decided to clean out the warning lights on my raid as the neutral light was quite dim and hey presto all the bloody bulb holders promptly fell to bits Any clues on replacing them? Cheers, Brad
Just back from a few hours in the forest still a few fires around it's spring and have had fires for three months now. Stopped and took a pic kind of shows how dry it's getting.

Hello again.I'm preparing the bike for the new season and i'm about to order tires. Other people that ride in Greece recommend Dunlop, a d952 in the front and a d606 in the rear. I have searched the tire threads and i think the D606 Rear 120/90-18 65R will fit (chain adjuster is on number 8). I'm not sure h...
Hi there, I have searched for my problem on here and found a few comments within a different (unrelated) thread and thought for future reference and people it would be useful to have a separate dedicated thread. When starting my bike recently I have had a few loud bangs, once running the bike is fine. I...
So there I was, bike wheeled out from hibernation, started fine, (thanks Optimate) warmed up all ok. Wheeled back into garage while I decided on my outfit Back into garage, horrors Big puddle under engine, gunge from bash plate with a decided petrol stink. Much dripping from carb. Fuel line had a nic...
Ok everyone, I have finally nailed some proper good exhausts They are being made up for me by Phoenix exhausts in Devon, same as the shorty header pipe. Now they have been road tested and no re jetting is needed for standard TTR, just plug and play , Keith who was testing it liked it so much, he bought it! I...
This little tank arrived from India (via eBay) this morning. I am going to use it to test carb float levels and for leaks BEFORE putting the carb on the bike and save myself possible hassle I am also hoping that it'll save the inevitable spillages that occur whenever I try to do anything involving petr...
Or, to ask the question in a different way, does the bolt go in from the RHS (exhaust) of the bike or LHS (chain/sprocket side)? The manual shows it both ways
Caught up with my brother and nephews last weekend rode three days took the ttr out one day and the Dr two days the young guys were stuffed I didn't admit I was running on Panadol and coffee Was a great three days
Hi, So I am a bit of a mechanical newbie (first post here too). I have a TTR250, but it stopped running. So I decided to try and clean out the carb as the first thing I've ever done to a bike (or even a car). Seemed to go alright, but after putting it all back together it has started leaking petrol out of the brea...
