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...
Hi Has anybody fitted a quick throttle on a TTR250?. The stock one has a super long travel and i'm looking for something a bit more quicker so I do not need to bend my wrist so much. Thank you
I have three questions about my carb 1. Should it leak gas if the bike is on its side? 2. Should it stay running when it's on it's side? 3. When I do a coldstart should the bike cut out whenever I blip the throttle thanks.
Hi, I'm close to purchasing a ttr250. I noticed a leak from a small bolt on L/H/S which is screwed into the cylinder head near the rocker cover. It wont tighten up ( has a copper washer). Looks like it may have been helicoiled in the past. 2 things: what's it for, and is it an easy fix ? In the photo, its the bo...

Was unlucky enough to drop the TTR yesterday. The side cover for the starter motor struck a rock quite hard. I didnt think too much of it initially but after a while i noticed a slow leak of oil from the bottom hex bolt. I thought id just dislodged the seal and limped her home to check it out. On removal of the...
500 miles and the paints rubbed off the left side frame rail big boots or poor paint from Yamaha it just don't look right for 500 miles. It don't come up with anything on the DVLA Mot history as its never had one it might be right but your guess is as good as anyone's I would want to see it in the flesh maybe I'm j...
If you're interested, at least for those in Australia, possibly other countries, I've found a paint that is pretty close for patch up work. It's DUPLICOLOR MITSUBISHI ELECTRO DSM03 Comes in 150g spray can from Supercheap Auto online. Have a look for yourself. Basically the bottom half of the fr...
I've taken apart my carb to deal with some leakage and it has clearly been taken apart before. One of the float arms had been broken off and pinned back together. There is also no white plastic insert seen in the following pic. What purpose does the white plastic bit have and does it matter if it doesn't ha...
