Fitted a pirelli scorpion rear today and a full service it's done 2000ks since its rebuild The hot day made fitting the tire a bit easier I did manage to pinch the tube so got to have a second go Gone with a 100/100 as the narrow tire helps it turn a bit quicker and doesn't climb out if ruts as much happy with...
Hi everyone, new to TTRs and this forum. I was doing some reading on the infamous sprag clutch issues common to TTRs. I've noticed mine makes a clunk when stopping and just wanted a second opinion from someone other owners about whether this sound is normal (just the engine coming to a stop) or somethin...
I just got through washing TEN air filters . I always find it a PITA do do so put it off and wash as many at once I can. P.S. only two for were for the TTR. How does everyone else dry theirs, I usually string them up on a coat hangar and use a fan or hairdryer if I'm in a hurry. Its that hot today they should dri...

Has anyone got a HPI trade account. I understand on a trade account its possible to check by frame number is a frame has ever been registered, if it has (and not stolen), its then possible to apply for a V5 with the reg number. Happy to pay, there is someone called Yodi that keeps popping up on searches, b...
I have recently bought a 2005 TT250R . It has nobblies on front (80/100/21) & rear (140/80/18). I am looking for better road use tyres. Can anyone recommend a suitable pair of tyres & advise if sizes need to stay the same or is there any known room for wider road profile tyre?
Hello I have a problem. My bike will crank but won't start. I have checked the fuel lines and the carb is properly tuned. It was running good the other day, I went out during the night (in the city) but after a few minutes of riding my headlight died so I was forced to turn back. When I tried to start the bike to...
Some bits I have for sale. A pair of raid gold wheels. I have washed them off but would come up better. They run straight but have some corrosion on the inside especially the rear. A bunch of spokes need tightening and they have various scrapes and scratching as they were used offroad for years. So not for...
Hi Peeps, I have the following for sale - 1 original oil cooler - I bought this recently on here off Jordandenton but havent had the time to fit it. Motad exhaust - Originally bought from Si (Black8driver) - has had some work done to it but I used it for a bit and it sounds great, is much lighter than the orig...

The video is of cars and bikes taking part in the annual MCC Exeter Trial - a Long Distance Trial that runs overnight from the Friday and into the following Saturday afternoon. I have competed in the trial a number of times on a TTR and it's a gruelling event! The hills that are used as marked test sections...
Here are a few Motor Bike related truths (Substitute TTR for Motor Bike if you want to) :- ·If you say bad things to your Motor Bike you don't have to apologise to it before you ride again.·If your Motor Bike doesn't look too good you can paint it or get new parts.·If your Motor Bike...
The photos are actually from de-rusting my BSA C15 tank which, to be fair, is nearly 60 years old but the same technique can be applied to an OE or Raid metal tank that might have been left standing empty of fuel for a few years. The media I used is quite chunky and used in vibrating tumblers and is called, if...
Came across this the other day, Ken Blake was a local rider from Strath killed at the IOM, this is a life size statue of his RG500 & rider made from scrap, if you search Google for Ken Blake, also info on the build of the statue on a facebook page. Anyhow a few photos of the statue, you will also see my red T...

Happy new year to all you fellow TTR fans and guru's. I have recently started to run in my girlfriend's 325 engine after a a full rebuild and winter upgrade and have noticed a new clutch fault. I've had a search on the forum but my search terms didn't come up with anything that resembles the same behaviour...

I do like an old BSA but couldn't afford a flat tanker so settled for buying an old Brit icon - a 1958 BSA C15 - to tinker with over the winter months It hasn't been started for about 8 years and have been told it wasn't an easy bike to start back then so I think I have a challenge ahead. It's got the early "eyeb...
