Hey, this is the bike I've been restoring coming back together. I just finished rebuilding the engine and put everything back on the bike. The first firing attempt will be happening days from now. Very excited. Anyway, the crankcase has new bearings and seals, I honed the cylinder and put in a fresh p...
The speedo drive on the TTR can easily be stripped out and rebuilt.The photo below shows the parts involved and I am pretty sure the drive can't be dismantled further. If anyone else knows different please say! I have included in the photo a brand new drive for interest.Fit the parts in order starting...
I have a 2000 TTR250 that I just bought. Started fine several times before I bought it. Got it home an hour later and it wouldnt start. Really sluggish like battery dying. Had new battery installed. Worked fine rest of day and started once this morning and wouldnt start 15 minutes later. Same problem....
hi everyone, A couple months ago I was changing the spark plug on the bike and decided to do a compression test only to find that The gauge read only 60 PSI. I'm pretty sure it should be way higher than that. The bike still runs extremely strong and it doesn't feel like there's any power loss could this jus...
Hello everyone,I have just about wrapped up overhauling my engine. My final inner engine task is the clutch plates I have just now installed.Here's my issue-The last time I played with one of these clutches a few years ago, I busted my spare. I put an improper torque wrench to the clutch spring screws...
Hi everyone. I just recently bought a 1999 Ttr250 As my first bike. I has been great so far. I Know I'll be asking a lot of questions and I'll try to answer some as well
Hi All Still have the TTR wheels left, sorry everyone else but Australia only Front and Rear wheels, axles, Discs, you will most likely need new bearings for both, they are a bit noisy wheels spin nicely with very little run-out, postage at your expense, these wheels will fit all models of TTR250, pack...
Hi all, Bit of an ask but I am looking for an analogue speedo mount, plus a speedo and the warning lights, mine only came with the warning light ty-wrapped to the bars (after an altercation with a tree...) which is rather worse for wear but works. If anyone can help with any of the above it would be greatl...
Just wondering if theres a good how-to for installing front brake pads I used this - http://www.ttr250.com/TTR_rear_discpads.htm for the rear ones and it was very easy but not sure how to do the front ones
In sunny weather (yes, we have had some in the UK!) it can be difficult to see if the neutral light is on so I have just changed the bulb for an LED one and it has made a huge difference! The TTR uses a capless bulb and it wasn't difficult to find an LED version: Before: After: Bright eh? Nice easy job Bria...
If your original unit is damaged or missing and you are fitting an after-market switch you may need some additional parts. When I was building my project bike, these are the additional parts I needed to properly fit the switch. It is more than likely that you will already have these on your TTR. Firs...
Hi the speedo stopped working so today had a look. . Spin cable at bottom and speedo needle moves . put a match in bottom pic up and it spun intermittently ie a couple of sparodic turns every turn of the wheel . Stripped and cleaned pic up and found the problem . The 3 tang washer had lost its flat sides ( see pi...

Hi everyone! Hope you've all been enjoying the Christmas break! I purchased my 2001 TTR250 just a few weeks ago and very pleased with the purchased, it is my first bike. I've stripped it down for a thorough wash and addressed some rust on the frame and repainted it for the meantime, I'll get it powder-co...
So I just replaced the piston rings and cam chain on one of my TTR's that had a little rattle in the (so I thought) top end. At the time there was little to no play in the big end so was left as it was. Few rides later and the noise that never left was back and at the first oil change the (after 2 hours ridding) the...
I have been asked several times what mirrors I'm using on my TTR & WRR, I've been using this style since 1982 & so far only broken one. Anyhow page 17 of the MCS catalog 3" clamp on enduro http://mcsonline.com.au/Catologue/ch_3.pdf And a photo of the page in question, not sure how you will go ge...
