I used the seat for UK to Nepal last summer. I had the seat reworked by a motorbike upholsterer as I am told a comfy seats the most important thing on a long distance trip. The sponge was replaced to an unknown degree with new foam rather than gel inserts, the company advised me they moved away from gel p...
Hi guys, hope someone can help, my ttr keeps blowing the 15amp fuse on top of the battery box, which then kills the engine. Change the fuse, bike starts, will do 100m, and fuse blows. Will tick over great, but soon as a bit of load.....fuse blows. Any idea's please? Thanks in advance, Steve.
Hi there, The old man's ttr cuts out going through deep puddles. It splutters and dies but give it a few minutes it sorts itself out and starts, I'm not sure of the state of the breathers really but it started without hesitation after the jet wash, must be stupid, maybe electrical connection somewhere...

Put rego on the TTR last night, out today in cooler condition after a couple of 40c days, 1st time I've ridden the TTR in months, got MT21's at either end & they do seem better that the D606's Short video from a firetrack Cheers Terry
I've got for sale a rack I brought off of Simon from this forum for my trip to Nepal. The rack is solid, not too heavy, and not massively big. Its never let me down. It's in very good condition the only issue is where some off the powder coating got rubbed off by my bags. As Simon had it fitted to his bluey it we...
Im due to change out the drive shaft seal and gear selector seal tomorrow. I have spares that came with a bike, all appear good. Is there anything I should be particularly wary of or are there any "pro" tips I should employ!- I saw Brian had advised someone on this before- possibly using 2 seals fro the dri...
Hi all, Dan here from Perth, Australia (originally from Kent, UK). Just got my TTR250 yesterday and it's my first bike other than a few rides of an old DT175 years ago and needed something to keep up with my 5 year old on his PW50 and have a bit of fun on. Looking to mainly ensure I keep the bike in really good c...
Hey all, ive just rebuilt my 2000 model ttr250 Top to Bottom (new carb intake boot included) I’ve cleaned the carb as upon intial ride after the rebuild there was a flat spot under load which turned out to be a blocked leak jet for the AP pump, now all is running well with the exception of it surging when he...
Just bought a blue TTR250 and have been reading reviews and various posts here in the run up to the purchase which has proven to be very useful and interesting. Still finding my way around the bike, but apart from a loud aftermarket pipe i am very impressed and looking forward to riding it. Have a questio...
Hello chaps, I've looked everywhere here and can't find the link for the helicoil kit for the spark plug thread replacement, can you help please? Thanks chaps.
Hi all, I did search the forums but could only find info on frame paint. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for fork tube silver paint in aerosol form? Is there some type that better than others at taking the knocks and socks from stones etc? Polyurethane Vs acrylic? Is one better? Cheer...
Very interested to hear if anyone has owned more than one type of TTR250 . There are 3 of course raid/open/blue .I am interested to hear any opinions comparing one to the other or ride outs with more than one model...I know the difference in spec but experience is worth a thousand specifications (somet...
From what I've read on here, I have had a common problem as the speedo magnet broke into three. Luckily it didn't eat through the pickup sensor. I cleaned it up and glued the broken pieces back in and for added security put heat shrink over the top. With the heat shrink on there is a tighter fit in the casing...
I am currently running a modified (by previous owner) stock exhaust on my TTR 250. I'm happy with the performance and sound but it is on it's last legs. BTW I believe the modification removed some of the internal baffling to make it more free flowing. Recently I purchased an after market exhaust to repl...
No idea if this has been posted before or if anyone's seen it - if not, it's worth 4 minutes of your time to give you a giggle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpsqlbTuqAc
Hi, would one of these Polisport MMX Universal Headlight be easy(ish) to fit to my Raid or would the clocks get in the way, or wiring be a pain to sort out? I am not too worried about it not being as bright as the original round one that's on it now, but just think it will be less prone to damage when I ine...
Out for a very nice if slippery run on Sunday. A lot of rain previously meant our loverly chalk base was coming through the mud at times although the only tumble I had was of course mid puddle. Good to be out although my bike was involved in a near fatal stabbing which Salisbury police are aware of [url=...
Hello to all, can anyone tell me what MX rear fender will come close to fitting my 03 ttr250? i have read around the internet but cant really find a definitive answer. i heard someone say certain year YZ fenders would fit with modification and i have heard people say the same about certain WR250 fenders....

5 Years ago on this very weekend I brought the TTR home & now it has 17k on the clock, no issues with the bike at all. I took the TTR out today for two reasons, one it has rego I put on for the VHC & two trying to keep the kms off the WRR ( 18mts old & has 11k on the clock) Did some sand, gravel roads &...
