Ok so I need new rear wheel bearings & seals... found a sticky with the sizes... BUT... it says bearings 60X22 ????... Oil seals 28X47X7...????? Oil seal with a smaller OD than the bearing....can't be correct.. now none of my bearing books list a 22mm ID bearing... which would be close to 7/8"......
Hi I'm a couple of weeks into my trip to NZ from the UK, currently in Slovenia. Today I changed the oil / filter out and noticed a fair bit of swarf on the filter, about as much that would cover half a five pence piece.... it's definitely swarf and not powder, quite sizeable pieces. I've also got a bit of a noi...
The rear shock spring I am currently working on is 80/200 25cm long Has anyone used not a softer spring, but a slightly shorter one(23cm)??- which I am hoping, will reduce down the height slightly. (I am already using a lowering link) -- Edited by RodYorkttr on Monday 5th of June 2017 09:46:42 PM
Hi all, A while ago myself and two friends were convinced by Malcolm (moo.) to buy ttr250s. We then thought why not ride go for a trip on them? So in May 2018 we have decided to ride them from Northamptonshire Uk to Austrailia. As a group we will need more parts to better prep ourselves. If anyone has any of t...
I got the idea of starting this thread in hopes that I could get some help from folks on this site.In my job working for the Texas DOT, I occasionally have to chair a Safety Meeting. I tend talk about topics I have special interest in. The subject I have picked for my meeting in a few weeks is MOTORCYCLE SAFE...

Was looking at lowering the WRR & check into lowering links etc. Kept coming up with üse the Yamaha 1"lowering option I did it last night, dropped the link off out of the way & adjusted the link yoke, wound the yoke up into the shock thread. Slipped the forks through the triples around 13mm, now I...
Just a quick hello. Bought a 2007 TTR 250 a few months ago (Cant believe 2007 is 10 years old, probably shows my age). Thanks to the forum was able to do a good pre check of the bike before i got it and i think i have a decent unit. Mostly orginal apart from what looks like a trail tech vapor replacement speedo a...
After having a problem with petrol not staying in the tank I had to cut the graphics to make the repair. Bit shocked at the price of new ones so having vinyl wrapped a zzr in the past I ordered a sheet of blue carbon to see how it could look. Total cost £20 deliVerde for enough to do this twice... Oh and the sun...
I am just making some space on my PC and came across these photos. I haven't heard from Arnaud for a long time so I am not sure whether his plan to run offroad tours around Lake Baikal ever get off the ground. His photos make it look stunning Google says; "Lake Baikal is an ancient, massive lake in the mount...

Raid Tank is solid and has no leaks, no fuel tap. Came fitted to my OE, has a few scratches and small dents. £35 + postage Raid Seat with new cover fitted. £45 + postage [IMG]https://i2...
I am breaking the forks to clean the oil & replace the seals purchased from TotallyTTrs.com one of the forks is proving a bugger to get the bottom bolt out...apparently there is "another way"...as hard as I search, I can't find it though! Can anyone enlighten me please? Regards Rod
I just got a 06 TTR250, but it has a couple parts missing and I hope someone has them here. I need the strap that holds the battery box closed the side panel that goes over the exhaust. I see that the stock exhaust has two mounting points for what I assume would be for the side panel if I were to purchase an afte...
Hi all, I decided to get a brand new shock ready for an exended trip so the old unit is now for sale in Northamptonshire. I wont claim to have anything other than an average understanding of suspension but it was working fine before i replaced it. It holds it oil, the bump stops there but has seen better day...
Took this pic this morning. Rode in from the other end and there was no sign . Always wondered what was in there a lot of bush and a seven km single track . I have a weeks holiday so aiming for 1000km . chalked up 350 since sat morning and it's only lunchtime Monday -- Edited by ttboof on Monday 5th of June 2...
The starter has been acting up for a while. Needing rocking in gear then would work. Took it apart and found sticky brushes. Now replaced from Steve. Quite a simple and worthwhile job. Slightly confusing is that the headlight is now brighter????
I have just started to strip the engine for my next project. When I bought the TTR a couple of years ago, I couldn't start it and suspected low compression so it needs investigating. There is already a "show and tell" for removing the cylinder head here so I am trying to think of any hints or ti...
Hi, I seem to remember a full stripdown and rebuild a while ago including pictures of the main bearings being replaced. I cannot find it right now. Please can someone send me a link to it if is is still available? Cheers. Mike
