Greetings, I'm from Sri Lanka where it's rare to find genuine Yamaha parts for the TTR 250. I bought a TTR 250 Raid 06 2 weeks ago, I heard the sprag clutch sound when I was inspecting the bike, however I got a sweet deal for the bike so I had my mind set to fix it once I reach home. Fast forward to today, I remove...
I've ridden my TTR250 for around 14 hours since owning it, and on the last ride it started bogging when opening the throttle quickly. Video here showing the issue: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/H0CTU0fgXDY What should I check? I'm guessing clean the carb and jets out as a first step? -- Edited b...
How long does the sprag clutch last before it goes bang and takes engine with it, my ttr has 6,300 miles roughly If i buy a kick start kit and undid the connections for the starter would that prolong the life of it. how reliably is a ttr for everyday use and whats typical mpg
My 'new to me' TTR 350 arrived with a 14/48 sprocket combination. I am wondering if this is the best set up for me: mostly riding off the tarmac, but an annual trip abroad requires the bike to be able to do reasonable speeds on the tarmac. Any advice would be gratefully received.
Garmin Zumo 595 that I bought a few years back to replace my previou8s Garmin. It got too nervous and jumped ship somewhere near Talbingo. It was in the sidecar, so I didn't notice it gone. It seems that the GPS market is changing, Garmin no longer has a strangle hold, with all the telephone apps that a...
Well I am back from my little adventure and despite the naysayers before I left, I loved nearly every minute of it. I'll break the story down into days (bite size pieces) so you don't get too bored. DAY 1 - Plymouth to Kendal As this was gonna be the longest distance in one hit of 350+ miles I loaded the bike u...

Did the Baa Ja at the weekend, not on the TTR this time, went road only on the Crossrunner. Good weather and a decent days road riding around the Welsh countryside. Had the good fortune to run into Steve, (not literally), in the Sanctuary of Calm and had a decent chat. Pleasure to meet you Sir. Hope you ha...
on my last trip. I was surprised/disappointed by the stability in the sand. the 250 ttr is a short motorcycle. I decided to fit a steering damper and lengthen the swingarm (3 cm) at the same time to fit a wrf wheel and its 245 mm disc.
I have a 2008 ttr110.. bike has 102 hrs on it..motor is 100% stock. I had some carb issues with the stock carb so I purchased a mikuni vm26. Bike kicks off on first kick without having to use choke. I worked on the Jetting for 8 hours, New Plug ,New Gas (Non-Ethanol) tried a different Carb, Different Needl...
Bought a ebike last week, where we now live is a bikeway all the way along side the river going to the city ( Adelaide ) 18kms away, also continues to the coast but that bit is flat & boring. I already have a couple of bikes but there are plenty of hills near home making for sore legs, we live right of the e...
Hello all you newbies out there (and everyone else reading). Just thought that I would make a guide to posting pictures and other help tips to help newbies become a pro at this site (like myself and most others ;). First of all I would like to start with an easy one and work to the more technical stuff. I wil...
This was my engine stand and very good it was too! It has seen a lot of engine rebuilds as those who have been following the forum over the years will know. Shot blasted and powder coated its almost a work of art! If you have an engine rebuild about to start then buy it now and sell it on again when you have fini...
Yep, I've now got two parked in the back yard. I don't have a shed, just a double garage of which one half is my part time work area and park time parking spot for my wife's HR-V. Its so cramped that my two sons (returned home) have their cars on the driveway. My DMax & bike trailer are stuck on the stree...
looking to get some others perspectives that have had their shock refurbed and possible revalved as well. I knew when I bought the bike that I’d need to get the rear shock serviced and last weekend got it off the bike to assess things which are not great! Whilst the bike is a raid it’s got an OE shock fitted...
Hi all The bikes been off the road awaiting the shock rebuild, and so I’ve been replacing various bits and thought I’d recheck the valve clearances. I found when doing it when I lined up the flywheel the cam markers looked just ever so slightly misaligned and vice versa when the cam lines are flat agains...
Long story short. Choke wouldn't work on a carb I am setting up. Everything else was fine once the bike started and warmed up but it was very reluctant to start. Took float bowl off and checked the choke and its galleries on the main body of the carb. All looked and worked as they should. It turned out that t...
Hello Everyone, Responded to my first post yesterday and thought it about time I introduced myself. I have just checked my profile and it would seem that I created an account almost 1 year to the day. I expressed interest in buying a small trail bike to a mate at the 2023 ABR Festival. He told me that he had...
Any ideas on installing a bracket on the head stock to mount a nav tower / screen? 1. wield it on, will be the last option 2. drill the head stock & bolt it on 3. fab up some crazy wild looking bracket has anyone had a good go doing something like this? cheers
Hello! I recently got back into the 3d printing game and set about making myself some bits for the TTR. I'm pretty happy with how they've all turned out so I've made the 3d model files publicly available to download and print yourself if that's what you're into! Raid specific screen mount for the AliExp...
Good evening everyone,just wondering if anyone would be able to give me an example of the rear foot pegs bolts and washer setup,mine didn’t have any fitted when I got her,I’ve sourced new pegs but need the right setup to keep it original,I know which springs I need but I’m unable to find which bolts I nee...
Hi guys, first post for me, I have a 1996 ttr250 open endure as a farm bike. I have had an issue with it since I got it, it will start and idle perfectly, it will rev up in neutral no worries but as soon as I put it under load I can't get past maybe 10% throttle and it dies like it's getting too much air, let the thro...
