Ttr350 and ttr325

Hi All

 

After meeting my girlfriend Roberta in Kyrgyzstan 2018 and impressing her with my overlanding ttr250 so much she moved moved from Milan to Northamptonshire, England In August 2020. She then decided to buy a completely disassembled Ttr250 Raid. After rebuilding that she then purchased a complete 325 engine to and fitted it.

 

We both planned to ride across Europe to Magadan, Russia this year but with covid it was postponed until next year.

 

Both of us are loving the big bore ttrs and have recently been for our first mini trip together from Northamptonshire to Thetford Forest then to Wells via byways/greenlanes. 

 

I carried nearly everything we would both need (minus the acerbis tank) for the big trip so the bike was much heavier than normal.

 

I definitely need to think about getting suitable springs for the suspension but I'm certainly not lacking in torque with the 350 kit fitted.

 

Both bike performed well, my 350 developed a bit of a weep and Robbie's 325 seems to burn a some oil and the valves are a bit too tappy.

 

We had a great time though despite the cold wild camping and frosty morning.

 

 

Not really sure how to upload the photos any better sadly!

Well, due to COVID and the current Ukraine conflict we have adjusted our plans. We will be riding the ttr325 and 350 to Hamburg mid August 2022 and they will be shipped to Chile for a South, Central and North America trip.

We have been really slack on the rebuilds opting to fiddle and ride our other bikes. The back up.idea is to take a c90/l and ct90 over if all goes wrong 2ith the ttrs.

Feel quite sad to sell the other bikes - C90, ktm 950 adv and xt660z but neads must to help fund part of the trip.
