It's nearly time to splash out on a chain & sprocket set, but my TTR has had Takasago Excel rims fitted and I'm not sure if the hubs are still standard. Does anyone know what the PCD of a standard TTR sprocket is? Or let me know if the sprocket in the photo looks right, I guess not if the wavy brake disc isn...
I camped for a few days with the wife last weekend and took the 250 and 125. I've been spending all my garage time on the 125 lately, moding for an adult basically -- I'm down to the jets and settings in the 125's carb and getting a steady idle is driving me crazy. But the 250s are just boring old Mr. Reliabl...

translate google from polish. I have a refurbished engine in the workshop and a new carburettor. Is it possible that the fuel level may be bad in a new carburettor? I can not start kicking the starter. Thank you for your help

HellO I have a 2003 TTR 5000 miles very little use from new. I had an oil leak dripping on the exhaust ...I have replaced the decompressor seal. It is not that. Would it be possible that the rings have gummed up and caused back pressure in the crankcase, that causing oil to leak through the head gasket? Th...
Hello all. I am new to the club but have had my TTR for about 8 years now. About three years ago some guys broke into my shed and ended up breaking the tank so that it could not be repaired. I have been looking for a stock tank ever since. Acerbis has one I believe, an aftermarket, but it stands out like a sore th...
I have spent a few days working on my mate Keith's Bantam which he bought in 1975 and never ran. It's in my workshop so I have been able to sort out quite a lot of jobs whilst Keith earns himself a living I cleaned the carb and, this afternoon, Keith brought around the cleaned out tank and some fuel and we sta...

Hello team TTR Went for a ride last week for 4 days with my new bags on the ttr - I'll put up a trip report very soon. Long story short it went perfectly - except the exhaust side of the bike the bags got hotter than I'd like - hot enough to just start to melt one of my dry bags. I had some heat shields on the ex...

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...

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...

Tried bumping to see if that would free the clutch but no luck. Easy job to take the clutch out or something more ob...
