There has been a number of questions about changing the TTR's oil and filter so I took some pics of the oil change I have just done. I will explain how I do it but you may well decide to do things your own way. Warm the engine first as the warm circulated oil will drain more easily and carry any debris with it. R...
I have had little luck finding a replacement headlight bulb for the '00 US TTR. The local dealer *may* be able to get one in a few months for about $65 each - seriously? I have a Polisport Halo that I intend to fit at some point but I wanted to repair the existing setup for simplicity. Well... this is what I di...
Well the TTR still looks pretty good, I've had it for 5 years now, it still runs great. Took it around the block yesterday, 1st time I've ridden since breaking my ankle 7 weeks ago, riding is ok but stopping is still an issue or should I say supporting the bike on tip toes with my right leg is not good. She is s...

Bought these off a forum member and as my Bluey is gone its time for them to move on! If you're longer in the leg, or find yourself hunched over the handlebars when standing, these make the bike supremely comfortable. They are modified from a set of MotoBau 'Bear Trap' footpegs modified to fit the TTR for...

Hello, As I have just explain in my presentation, I bought a 93's TTR250 last saturday and I m starting to check the parts which need to be replace.

It is 1 or 2 mm narrower than original, but in double less price than yamaha's. Fits perfectly. Bearing code for googling - GXSW 12.26 Adding photos (comp...
Hi I have recently had the sprag clutch on My TTR replaced as there was a noise when you switched the bike off. The mechanic that did the job said there was significant wear on the sprag you could rotate it both ways before it would lock up. The Boss gear he said had a little bit of wear but he didn't think it w...
Hi all, I have a couple of questions relating to the TTR gearbox, hopefully the collective genius of the forum can help me! I've had a couple of occasions recently where I get stuck in first gear. Gear changes on the low gears can also tend to seem very stiff / like they are not engaging properly. Higher ge...
