I had a couple of clutch covers that I had put to the back of the shelves as I couldn't figure how to repair it and the covers are too valuable to throw away. The challenge is to drill the thread out for the Helicoil insert absolutely at 90 degrees. This is the kit I used - not actually Helicoil but a copy: I enl...
Hello from Japan. I found a very nice 1994 RAID with just over 3000km on it ,so I signed a contract with a motorcycle shop yesterday and it is currently being delivered and serviced. The bike is 30 years old, so it is becoming rare even in Japan, the country of production. Please, seniors, tell me a lot abo...
Just bought a 2005 little over a week ago. One trail ride so dar and it ran great. Only minor maintenance issues (clutch cable needed tightened and throttle was sticking). Both issues fixed easily. Hoping to get out again tomorrow. I have been looking for new plastics and graphics but haven’t found to...
So, my daughter's bike is starting to smoke a lot, figure it's time for new rings and piston, looking on Ebay, looks like they offer a few replacements, 73.75 bore, 73mm bore, 73.5 bore, Any idea what size I need, I don't want to pay the inflated Yamaha OEM brand if I don't have too. Thanks -- Edited by dle...
I have a shift drum bearing that is badly contaminated with aluminium swarf. Anyone know how to change it? How does the star wheel come off the end to pull the bearing off? I can't see it mentioned in my manual at all!

Hi there. I've just had an ace day out on the great western trail and the washed out gulley at Midford has claimed my rear shock! Had to ride back sitting on the tank! Where can I send it off to get fixed? Thanks for any help!
I have a 2006 blue tank ttr. my battery kept going flat so i replaced the rectifier. Battery continued to go flat. checked voltage at battery with engine running and it was not charging. took the stator out and found 2 burnt out segments, sent it to west country windings to be re wound. Re fitted and stat...
I need to replace the filters on the ends of the petc0ck, on the brass lines that are inside the fuel tank. Does anyone happen to know what the size is of those brass lines, or has an OEM petc0ck kicking around and can measure them - replacement filters seem to come in a few size variants? I will have to tak...
Spotted this on a TTR sales site in China..does any one know if it will fit and is it an easy fit. It says it's a Piagio oil cooler - about 40 pounds... will it fit - any ideas? Daz
Hi all I'm not sure if this is been answered already. I have a charging problem and I checked the stator resistance and it was around 2ohms so I searched for a stator without any luck I ordered a Taiwan coil which was in spec for resistance but had a problem with the pickup which made the bike run super lean c...
So I'm thinking of stripping the TTR of all electrical components as I never use it on the road.. keep battery , starter & charging components , all other stuff will go... Question ... to remove the ignition switch do I have to connect any wires in the main loom ? only want the kill switch & a main o...
So, not strictly for sale from myself.. Alex from Alexander Motorcycles (alex@alexandermotorcycles.co.uk) done me a ridiculously good deal on a B&B Sump Guard he had in. On asking if he had anything else laying around for the TTRs he mentioned he had a set of the B&B frame guards. I'm not su...
Hi all, have just ordered the Acerbis tank mounting kit from Totally TTRs and am wondering if anyone has had any experience with it? I know the kit was made for the xr650l tank but has anyone successfully used it with one of the other xr tanks...250/400/600? The 650l tank seems to be rare in Australia bu...
Hi! I am the proud owner of this '93 TTR 250 open enduro. It was a birthday present from my fiance last July. I used to ride motocross (badly) in my 20s but stopped when my first son came along. He's 12 now and has his own TTR 125. I've not been out on the '250 much since I've owned it as I've been slowly working o...
Hi Guys, My 2005 TTR250 has a high pitched noise that gets louder with RPMs and when the engine gets hot. Clutch in or out makes no difference and neither does bike speed. I've only noticed it the last few hundred miles and it's been getting louder. Sometimes the engine makes a hard clunk when it shuts off...
Hello everyone! Yesterday i noticed that one of the studs that hold the exhaust in place had completely fell off my bike. I had replaced this stud a month ago as the previous one could not get tight enough and i hoped that this may resolve the issue, which unfortunately wasn't the case. The threading tha...
Hello, my name is holger from germany. I am searching a ttr250, but its is difficult to get one in germany, because in the past they are not sold. So i need some help, to find a ttr in an other country, and maybe you have a ttr250 for to sold or know somebody. Because of my illness, i like to have a lightweight,...
Hi all, My bike developed a weird rattling coming from the clutch basket, I think. It stops or minimises when I pull the clutch lever. It is not that annoying but I would like to ask if someone has experienced this and what could the cause be?
Can anyone recommend a good fastners set that is availabe in the UK? I'm talking a big box of nuts, bolts, washers etc that I can have to hand when I need to replace one of the rusty ones that are beyond saving on my bike. Seems like there's always at least one like this that needs replacing when I've done any...
My ignition pick up has gone open circuit. I've ordered one on ebay that I think I can fit to the existing stator/wiring. Being Chinese if it works I might sell the ttr because I can't trust it Tried to buy a complete stator but apparently not available any more Has anyone got a good fix -- Edited by T...
Hi I am looking to replace my engine upper engine mounts and although the shop has individual mounts at £25, thought I would see if anyone has broken a bike and would sell the mounts, also interested in a replacement headlight and plastic cowling if anyone has these.
So, I'm looking for more power! I have a '94 raid. I am hoping to add electric grips and an electric vest. Grips run at about 60 watts. That's almost half of what the stator produces. Are there any aftermarket stators for the bike? Am I looking at a rebuild?
