Hiya, I have a 99 TTR, trying to get ready for MOT, last job is the headlight/main beam, I can get both to work by altering the bulb's location, but cant get a setting where both the headlight and main beam work at the flick of the switch. If I get the main beam to work, flick the switch and the headlight wont c...

Good morning, quick thank you to Brian for addingvmy details and signing me up to this forum much appreciated. So I've never ridden off road, always been a road rider so I fancied dipping my toes into the world of green laning. I have just purchased a 2004 TTR250 which for its age appears to be in pretty...
Hi all, looking for some advice or maybe a reality check I’m not sure! I’ got my raid up and running last year and have starting using the bike for green laning. most of the time this requires riding for 30-60mins to meet up with others and get to the dirty stuff. The bike is fantastic and more competent tha...

In search of a gas tank for my 1990 Yamaha 250 TTR . Would anyone be aware if there is another model tank that will fit? Or someplace I can find custom dealer of plastic tanks. Any thoughts would be welcomed. Many thanks.
I'm after a bash plate/ sump guard in a hurry as i've entered an enduro playday next weekend and I don't think the standard protection bars will do much
Hey everyone! I have a TTR250 Raid from 1996 which i bought about a year ago. The last couple of months, after some changes i made, i have noticed that the motorcycle behaves a bit odd. It feels like it hits unusually high revs at 1/4 of throttle and when i open it 1/2 or more the engine feels like working rea...
Hi all, got my 1994 OE out of winter slumber & it has a sort of surge or uneven running at low/part throttle. Fresh fuel, well warmed up, pulls cleanly(ish) through rev range, ticks over fine. I've had this problem before & nver got to the bottom of it. Bike has snorkel mod, shorty header & ex...

Hello all. Just joined the forum as I have been trying to get my 1999 TTR250L back on the road after 20+ years. Having a few issues but this site and forum has been a godsend! Will post some questions in due course. Matt.
New purchase of what I understand to be a 1993 OE with a blue facelift and 263 bore. The build was featured here back in 2011 by a well know super user. Previous owner sent PDFs of the build. I am wanting to get back out on the green lanes after a period of absence so thought this would be a fun bike and I do li...
