I haven't even started it yet. Wating on some parts he lost for it. I've put around 100 dollers in it.

Welcome to the forum Shuey!

You can't argue with a free TTR250 biggrin

The major components missing look to be the seat and tank unless you have them stashed away. The original blue plastic tank can be hard to find but there are alternatives that will fit.

We are here to help when you have found out what needs doing e.g. what bolts are broken?

I have the tank and side covers. All broken bolts have been removed. Wating on rear motor mount and cam gear bolts. When that stuff comes in. Its time to see if the rings r ok And run this thing.

Why does my 2000 ttr not have turn signals or speedometer. All the ones i see have them and mine doesn't is this a u.s Thing.

The Mancunian · Senior Member

Might have had them removed for enduros'? Possibly had an hour clock on?

Shuey · Member

Theres no wires for turn signals or switch on handelbars.

TTRfan · Super Guru

The TTR250 was sold as a purely offroad bike in the States. They have an odometer fitted rather than a speedometer. They don't have turn signals fitted and the wiring loom doesn't have the connections. Same with the rear number plate holder and light - it's not there.

Quite a few frame tabs not on the US frame.

Can't remember the other differences off the top of my head - sorry.

Thanks for the info. That blows balls! The u.s sucks now i have to make wireing harness and all that crap. Just so i can keep miles off my f250 diesel.

TTRfan · Super Guru

Maybe you can buy a second-hand non-US loom that already has the connectors you need?

Some info here

Im trying to keep this cheap as i can. Don't know if i am going to keep it.

peteBLUEttr · Super Guru

Do you need turn signals and a speedo to be legal on the road in the u.s do you?

Green Chile ADV 1 · Veteran Member

Depends on the state. I am in New Mexico and turn signals are not required here.

Shuey · Member

No i don't have to have them in indiana. It would be nice. Will right now it wont even turn the motor over. Starter relay was bad so i but a new one on and now starter works but wont turn motor over.
