On my way to meet up with some mates for a trail ride earlier in the week, there was a death rattle coming from the 325 that prompted me to turn around and head back about 3 miles from home. Really disappointing as I don't get out much these days and the ride was in the Dawlish area and haven't ridden those lan...
My blue ttr250 has been standing a long time. It would not start, checked the plug had sparks, so following the excellent guide removed the carburetor. I took the carb to be cleaned and asked about the state of it. I was told it was green and manky inside. Refitted the carb, replaced the plug. It wou...
Hi all, First off, a quick introduction. I’m Ollie, and I’ve had my TTR for a while now (a year or 18 months, can’t remember exactly). It’s a K reg metal tank version. I use it for green laning so it gets a bit battered and bruised, but I always give it a lot of TLC after each trip! There’s one slightly odd f...
Wet Saturday mid Devon run me and Oly took Mark out for his first TRF run on his classic 500xl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9Zf1g6rlVY&feature=youtu.be
The old beach ridden bars replaced by a resprayed set. Only major job the beast has had its entire life is a camchain. Uses no oil , just a couple of puffs of smoke on start up after sitting for a week.

I went to cleveleys today (between blackpool and Fleetwood) to do a bit of shopping and have some dinner and as I was coming out of the café there was a white raid going past sounding well with a aftermarket pipe , do we know who it could be in that area
First half decent day down our way and blew the cobwebs out of the bikes (and us) with a day ride out Gembrook way in Bunyip State Forest. My TTR250 and a mate on his TTR600. Most of the tracks were still closed but we managed to find a few open gates and managed 100km for the day. Amazed at how dry it was up ther...

Sorry about the bad pun but I have spent a few hours this afternoon trying to sort out a TTR250 front brake master cylinder and it's sort of making me feel a bit hysterical My mate Jim has a collection of shiny chromed up vintage(ish) Jap bikes and spends quite a bit of time fettling them and trying variou...
Police rang me and said they found my stolen ttr supermoto from months ago, so so happy Quite a bunch of stuff to fix, including a new seat but happy it still runs and rides. Going to fix it back up and this time get insurance, a tracker, and multiple locks
I finally had a chance to try the TTR for a day trip. My mate on his TTR planned the route. We covered +/-230kms for the day. Some tar, but about 70% gravel and real jeep tracks. Overall consumption was 21kms/l. This included 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear technical for long sections. A basic route plan could...
Pleased to be a member of the forum. I'm a motorcycle lover, 67 years young and enjoying my bike. Started riding again after a short break of 25 years!
Hello. I acquired my TTR 2 months ago, and have been wondering what this shim is for? Is this a big bore kit any of you are familiar with? No engine problems so far. Just curious as I know this bike has been heavily modded and the previous owner also has no idea. Dunno how many hands she's been passed to. :ha...
My brother in North Dakota sent me on a goose chase looking for ... wait for it ... fig jam. The good man misses some goodies from back home (South Africa) and in particular a very specific fig jam, that the good people of North Dakota seems to be enjoying in equal measure. So I jumped on the TTR Saturday,...
Just a few picks of the TTR before it went to a new home, a few things I'll miss, 6 gears, a really nice smooth clutch, and the almost stealth quality of the engine, it just purred, that the most I think So thanks lads for all your help and advise over the years, it was always a pleasure to drop into the forum....
ok about three weeks ago I bought a pair of used wulf trials boots in good condition off ebay , and was just wondering what do you guys use to waterproof your boots. I have just coated mine in leder gris leather boot wax oil, and it seems ok and if anything the boots have gone a shade darker in colour . have any...

I'm taking my forks apart because one of the stanchions is bent from a bad fall I had in Portugal. I need a special tool to take it apart and although it's possible to do it without, I prefer to know it's done properly when I put it back together. I have an alternative reason here for wanting a tool, I recentl...

My TTR250 stock exhaust has a distinct bend/kink where the stainless trim covered pipe section joins the main body of the exhaust. Are they meant to be like this or are they supposed to be straight? -- Edited by Benjah on Thursday 21st of September 2017 01:03:57 AM
Further to owning a 1993 TTR250 OE from late 2014 to April 2015 for a project to ride from the UK to Portugal to off-road and build a 19ft diameter Mongolian yurt, I have just bought another TTR in Queensland, Australia. I'm a documentary photographer and concentrate on photographing and interviewin...
Hey guys, I work away at an evil place called olympic dam. However there is plenty of good riding up here - great red sand for miles. My TTR needs to be geared down to have more power to ride through this thick sand. Does anyone have any reccomendations for a ratio where I would be able to sit on 100 km/h all da...
