Hi All, After moving down to Plymouth from Surrey a couple of months ago, I find myself craving for the motorcycle auto jumble world. I had done stall's at Kempton, Ardinley, and Kent for a few years now. Just too far to go from here, Are there any Auto jumbles in the south west I can't seem to find any. I no...
Hi guys, which direction should the starter motor spin. I have removed the generator cover and can se the splines of the starter motor. I'm doing the Sprag clutch and have replaced the starter motor brushes also, there was lots of whirring with everything togethe, but a lack of starting, cheers all, B...
Hi all, As above, looking for a seat for my OE as mine has been cut out at some point, I guess to lower it, but as I'm taller I need a replacement seat Any colour is fine as I can recover Thanks Nick
An excellent article I just read on Adventure Rider - see here There is an excellent explanation of the different types of Loctite available. I had no clue that the green "wicking" solution existed let alone how cleverly it works! Brian
Guys, i have an 03 TTR 250 that is missing the the exhaust header flange bolts.....I looked on the schematics but cant find a part number for them. Can someone tell me what they are please?
Bikes are loaded & leaving for the Flinders ranges tomorrow morning. My WR250R 2 yrs old with 13k & my mate Dave with a brand new WR250R with about 100kms on the clock, We both have TT250R's & have done the trip with the TTR's plenty of times but this will be the 1st with the WRR. Dave bought the...
Got a DMC Pro Quiet Exhaust for sale. Its a straight through and is fairly loud. A nice weight saving over the original and will open the bike up a bit. Its a bit scruffy looking and at some point the sign has been dented, so i undid the rivets with a view to straighten it out and re-apply. Its just been tight...

hi Folks anyone used a car TomTom on their bike I have a couple of old ones and wondered how they would stand up to being used mounted on the bike weather issues in the rain, vibration etc. cheers Mike
I've got for sale a fitting kit to fit the acerbis tank to an oe. I brought it from Steve at totallyttrs for my trip but no longer need it. This kit is absolutely solid and Steve and Brian have done an awesome job with it. Asking 30 for it plus postage. Cheers Jordan
Guys, i just replaced my timing chain, piston, valve seals and rings. After putting everything back together and attempting to start it all it would do is crank with an occasional small pop back through the air filter. After ensuring that my flywheel was TDC on the single up and down line i removed the c...
I am waiting for a multi meter to arrive soon but this is my problem there is no display at the moment. I can take the headlight cowl off and pull the connection that connects to the speedo and plug it back in and it works but when I put the headlight cover back on and turn the ignition off and back on and it will...
Google translator. I think it's a carburetor. After being tipped to the left (I have not topped the right one yet) I can not run the foot of the engine. I do not have an electric starter. It is only after about 15-20 minutes that the motor can be started. Such a mystery. What is going on? Thank you.
Steve H (a member of this new forum who lives a few miles away from me in sunny Exmouth, Devon) and I each bought a 325cc big bore kit from Thumper Racing for our TTRs in 2010. I read about the 325cc kits years ago and my own view is that a 350cc 4-stroke e/start would be a pretty much ideal trail bike but you go...
https://youtu.be/sYdgP0n51Bc Hi, have been reading this forum for years but havnt had a need to post. I rode the Holland track from Hyden to Coolgardie yesterday, see included video
Recent projects and restorations on other forums have stirred my project juices and so I am going to have a go. The idea is to see whether I can update an eBlag purchase economically to make it look like the later blue plastic-tanked TTRs. This will mean changing the frame colour to blue or black (as use...
I have a strange problem. My OE digital speedo appears to have reset the km's. Not the trip km's but the main reading. Or am I being a bit thick and not pressing correct buttons or need to press one. I have read through and tried red and blue combinations to no avail. My speedo now says 50km's
My nephew just picked up this tt350 with two spare engines and a rear shock He's going to do a full resto and get it back on the road he got it really cheap I've tried to buy it off him no luck
Had this photo for a while, the boys in blue on patrol in the forest, I know the spot as we used to ride there 30yrs ago when it was legal with a permit In fact I've seen the policeman on the left of the photo a few times but on the BMW Cheers Terry -- Edited by TerryK on Monday 9th of July 2018 02:59:41 PM
TTR Steve has always been a bit less than enthusiastic about taking on mechanical jobs. His excuse being that something always seemed to go pear shaped on his projects. I thought perhaps it was a bit of an excuse not to get oil under his finger nails However, having worked with him for a few days buildin...
Does anyone know the specs of the 2 bolts used to bolt the exhaust on to the frame(after the cannon slides onto the header pipe). I have lost the back one on my recent ride and one closest to the header is nearly stripped. I tried an M8, and the thread was similar though wasnt correct. NOTE- These two bol...
