I was just wondering having read lots of posts on here to increase my learning curve, If these engines are well maintained what would be the highest mileage I could expect to achieve. ???? I have read that people put baggage on them and travel vast distances so they must be very reliable, I am asking as t...
Hi all, I thought you might like a couple of pics of my wife’s ttr... pearl. Just finished a rebuild in preperation for a trip to Russia, leaving in 3 weeks. I’m pretty pleased how this turned out but it now owes me the National debt!!! The only snag is a rack. If anyone has anything kicking about in the gara...

OK, having spent loads of cash on my TTR and converting it to supermoto to use for getting to my fire station when I'm called out (retained fire fighter), I've decided that I'd probably kill myself trying to overtake a pensioner down the lanes between home and the station So it's just been sat in the bar...
Just fitted a set of Dunlop 606 front and rear along with 14/52 sprockets and a new chain as well, I cut the chain off at 110 links, that just gives me clearance with the rear shock mud guard and sets the axle back on number 5 on the snail cams INTRO I had full Michelin knobbies on before and the ride even on smo...

Hi, This is my second thread as I think I broke the other one, I can't see the contents, no idea why. Damn, typed in loads of info too. Could you give me some advice as to how much my bike is worth please? It's a 93 import open enduro that I'm just not using any more. Cosmetically a bit of a mess but mechanically...
My TTR (BLUE) has been standing for some time, the bike started fine, however I jumped on it. Pulled in the clutch stabbed first and stalled. it seems the clutch plates are stuck together? Tried bumping to see if that would free the clutch but no luck. Easy job to take the clutch out or something more ob...

Hello all again, having finally removed rusted screws on my front brake master cylinder cover i believe that the fluid has not been changed since 1997, it looks dreadful, and, will have to pump a lot of fluid through the system to clean it out, I would suspect the rear brake will be the same. My silly ques...
hi everyone, I went out today to go for a ride and when I went to start the bike it just kept turning over it didn't even try. But when I gave it a little bit of gas(with the choke on) it came to life. But at idle with the choke on it didn't idle up like it always does. I had to keep giving it gas for around 30 seconds...

Yesterday, Got a new key cut for my bike. They said they had never seen an original key (i assumed for my yr model 2005) as what they had seen was some kind of butchered keys previously???? I rang my local yamaha dealer, and they recommended this place. Quite a difference. I keep original key on lanyard, h...
G'day guy - just joined. I picked up this TTR cheaply and I intend to use it trail ring and maybe adventure touring. The first problem is to get it running. Its been standing unused and unstarted for about ten years - yeah yeah I know the likely issues, my stupidity and optimism. To confirm my stupidity yo...
Hello all, back again with my silly questions that have been resolved with all your help, this one is not so easy. Having bought a number plate bracket and light from Steve in the shop, you will see from the picture that the exhaust blows straight onto the number plate creating a dreadful resonance and c...
Got a question for Brian, our TTR guru. I've just got back from a tour of the TET trails in Southern France and Spain. I noticed the oil level had dropped and topped the level up. I've used 1ltr of oil over 1500 kilometres. I've had a quick look this morning and the catch vessel at the airbox was full of emul...
Hi everyone, A couple months ago I started my bike only to see blue smoke start coming out of the exhaust. It went away shortly after pushing in the choke. I let it go and just figured I'd do a rebuild this winter. But after the starting the bike several times throughout the past couple months i have notice...
North Devon Run Having not been out with Oly for some time it was nice to hit the lanes in North Devon with him we started from his place way out past no mans land were the natives chuck spears at you and all the houses have a front cover so you can sit and play your Banjo come supper time. Taking in the lanes dow...
Here are a couple of my other bikes although some will argue that a 1981 Honda C50 step-through is a moped, it has a kick start, three gears, zero pedals & the V5 states MOTORCYCLE so there! Anyway it was in my dad's damp shed for the past 33 years rusting away, so when he died earlier this year I decided...
Hi, Last Summer I purchased a 2006 TTR250 that has had very little use. In fact, it sat in storage for roughly 6 years. The previous owner didn't take care of the gas, and basically made a mess of the carb. The guy I bought it from had the carb rebuilt, replaced fuel lines, etc. When I bought the bike it r...
