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...

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...

Ever wondered what the little black bottle plumbed into the TTR's air intake was supposed to do? I confess to having been ignorant until reading a review of the new Beta enduro bikes in the latest TBM magazine when the YEIS was mentioned. I did a search on t'internet and found some more information.Ap...

So not sure. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox...

The changes: 1 street legal conversion with lights/horn/blinkers/brake lights 2. bigger wider foot pegs 3.rebuilt the forks and shock and lowered the bik...
I had the bike up on the stand yesterday and I put it in first gear to spray the chain lube on. While it was in gear I noticed that the chain was jumping at the front sprocket. Is the chain to stif or to lose maybe, or is this normal?
i was cleaning and greasing my bike when I noticed that the kickstand is very sloppy. It has a lot of play in it and I'm wondering if it should be like that or if the bushing is bad. are they supposed to be like that? Thanks.
