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...
I'm new to riding, and needed a trailer to get started. Here's what we started with. Found this online. I ordered new tail lights and fenders from etrailer. Awesome place if you need anything trailer related. Sorry, I don't know why that rotated the picture. Bought the TTR, brought it home. No...

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...

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.

As I am always asking Bri to test kits that I have in the shop, thought I would have a go at fitting the all balls carb kit, as my carb needed a overhaul on my OE that I am going to do a full rebuild/ 350 kit on. So I started off stripping the carb down Now I think most people buy the kits, just to use all the gaskets O...
My carb has a leak from the diaphram area at the bottom of the carb so the diaphram is probably toast, I'll need to replace it. My question is will this issue have an effect on performance? I have no other TTR to compare mine to but if I had to guess I would say it's feeling underpowered.
If an XR650L Acerbis tank can be adapted, does that mean so can the original? Any other tanks worth looking into? On another subject does anyone else have trouble with the rear wheel spindle seizing into the brake carrier?
I recently moved to chulmleigh and I haven’t ridden out this way much in the past so I’m keen to get out on some short local rides. Having recently become a full time single dad to my ten year old, I’m a bit nervous about riding alone. Does anyone on here live close by who would be up for coming out to play?
Hello all again, still working on my latest new hobby, I am very puzzled that my headlight assy seems to be held together by some very posh looking elastic bands, please see the pictures and let me know if this is correct.

Howdy, am new around here... (hello!) recently picked up a 2004 TTR blue and I’m loving it... great little trail bike!
