Bought in April 2016 to satisfy a "moped" challenge with the team from work that was settled as off-roading up in the Peaks, including riding there and back (I'm in Peterborough). Bought from Terry Rudd Motorcycles although it was a part ex for him so he spent no time on it. I quickly found a few things wr...
Hey there. So I noticed when I run my bike wide open/full throttle and then right after closing the throttle or even going half-throttle, my engine 'blips' and surges for about half a second before engine braking. I'm wondering if this is an issue with carb tuning. It's kinda annoying esp. when speedi...
Moskomoto Reckless 80 turned up. Worth every cent, fits perfectly. Doesn’t move at all. I’ll be fine with one kidney...... I'm dizzy now - I have spun them round for you all. Cubber
lost tools I was lucky when I got my TTr it still had its full tool kit under the side panel plus the right wheel nut sized rear one. Now i had a puncture Saturday I was only out for two hours as the weather was ****ty but I needed a ride I had not been out since Christmas. Now I'm not one for pissing around in the v...
Sorry, not a TTR, but my bro has been having trouble with his early Yam FJ1200 and it falls to me to solve it so I'm after some ideas before I delve in. As this is the only bike forum I'm active on, it's you lot I'm turning to first in my hour of need! Starts fine from cold, runs for about 4 miles then starts to run...
I bought this 2011 TTR250 with a meagre 800klms on the clock a few weeks back for a good price. It's still fitted with the stock factory tyres and sprockets (14/44) which I intend to change soon. I'm thinking for the style of riding I do which often involves very slow riding that I'd be best served by...
Another TTR has been haunting me the last month. I keep on hoping it gets sold soon, so I can save some money. It has a lowered seat so it will be perfect for the missus. Advise from fellow addicts would be appreciated.
SOLD Stainless rack and detachable pannier frames to suit all TTR 250s I'm modding some givi frames to fit so no longer need this set-up. Very solid rack, really strong and durable as its stainless. SOLD!! -- Edited by Moo on Wednesday 21st of February 2018 06:34:10 PM
Mrs H has said she would like to join me along a couple of smooth trails. I was given the rear pegs but don't know what I need to mount them? Are they bolted on only are do they have friction washers, springs of any sort. Workshop manual shows nothing. Anyone have parts manual pics ? Cheers Dom
Hi Everyone, I fancied a four stroke trail/dirt bike and being a Yamaha fan, it had to be a TTR! I picked up my 2000 reg. project in the autumn as a winter project. It had had a hard life bless it and is taking quite a bit of my time and money but we are getting there! First stage is to get it to mot standard and tid...
After breaking a couple of shafts (they are only made of brass) in the past trying to free a seized choke I decided to try a different approach today and it worked so I thought I would share it. I firstly took the top off the carb to see if there was any way of freeing it from inside but I don't believe there is...
Bit warm today, I was going to head to some sand but it meant riding next to long grass & with the hot weather we had this week not a good idea. Got out for a quick loop on the TTR Up to High Eden & back, 120kms & didn't even get off the bike, was pretty warm & I drank two litres of water, bacon &am...
Hi, has anyone in the UK got a rear wheel they want to part with? Ideally an anodised purple one but I know that's a big ask! So anything really! Cheers! -- Edited by Kings398 on Thursday 15th of March 2018 01:14:36 AM
These are the usual culprits! I have just stripped them out of a carb that has been standing unused for a long time. The float bowl gasket was hard and flattened. The diaphragm had fused to the carb body and had to be prised off plus the two small O rings by the diaphragm had seen better days. The carb wasn't...
Hi All, I purchased this bike in March 2015 from Moto Ward in West Sussex. I rode it to Boretech and got an MOT then back home stripped of the back end mudgauards etc with the intention of powder coating the frame. But due to other commitments it’s stayed in my warm garage covered over. I’ve purchased lots...
Mine is a 2003 blue model with the plastic tank. Whenever I am pushing it or at lower speeds I can hear slight rubbing on both the front and rear brakes. I recently replaced the tires and forced the calipers back, but after pulling the brakes a few times to repressurize it continued. I read that this may be...
