Well done! Nice to see the budget japanese bikes getting some love. I bought my father Tim (he even looks like this guy) a cheap ttr250 3 years ago for Father's Day, trying to get him back on the trails with me and reinvigorate his love for two wheels again. It was the best money I've ever spent, he loves it, and now we spend more time than ever together; riding. Keep up the great work Barry, best channel on TH-cam!
Great bikes, I put 25,000+ miles on mine and the valves never budged. Never any mechanical issues, at all really. I don't know another single 250cc bike that's built as tough with fewer gremlins. Great little mountain goat of a bike, it needed a few more HP to lug around its weight, but it always got me through the trails and up whatever I was climbing. Shame they weren't more popular...getting plastics and other bits for it proved difficult.
I have a TTR-230 and its actually great. I used to hate that it felt like a small tractor but in really rough trails its unstoppable. The thing will never stall and requires no maintenance. Its honestly perfect at what its meant to do, which is be a reliable cheap trail bike. People try to take YZ450's in a hardcore trail and they get destroyed by everyone who isn't spending all their time kicking the bike to start due to a narrow power band.
look for a dt230 its the 2 stroke version of the ttr and is basically the cheap old version of the modern 2 stroke cross trainer. And who doesnt love the ting and feel of the 2 smokeers.
ttr-230 is awesome bike except on big loose sandy hill climbs that was the first time I really needed more power. Great bike to have if you have a girlfriend or friends who come riding sometimes. Low seat height for us shorties also makes it awesome in the winter to throw studs in your tires and ride all year. Cheap bike to buy used and sell used and probably come out even if you want to get into riding.
He was ripping pretty good on that thing! might only be 20hp but my friends 32hp WR250 just needed its ludicrously expensive 5 titanium valves replaced, I bet a TTR will last 50,000km instead of 5,000km before it needs valves, if ever
I bought one this year, an 04. I'm learning to ride on this, and It's my first bike. I know she's nothing compared to others, but it's mine. I've re-jetted the carb, updated maintenance items, and it's paid me back with 10 hours (so far) of reliability. I'm not embarassed by it.
I have a xt250 and i know its not the same as a TTR250 but its the only street legal bike of its kind you can buy now. Let me tell you my buddies who rides ktm 501 and 300 enduros always always ask if they can ride my bike 😂. The handling and the way it deliver power is perfect for trail and enduro riding, you really dont need anymore power than that tbh.
I lowered the seat height and suspension on mine (I'm ground clearance challenged) and like its performance with DOT knobbies for street use here in the mountains. It runs great all the way to 13,000 feet elevation, though it could stand a smaller countershaft sprocket for those extreme rocky sections of trail around here.
Alas Baz, done it now you have. A can of worms opened it is. Standard set now by you requires testing of DRZ400 and 250 in comparison to determine strength of sticker upgrade year by year. Does TTR250 get more bank for bung with better sticker than Suzuki?
These 4 stroke bikes are the reliable ones we rode in the 80s. Back in the day you couldn't kill a XR or XT or a TT. Best part is these bikes are funn as heck. Goon it all day and just put gas in it. 50 million km,s between rebuilds is nice too. Makes me want to buy a old xr400 for funn
hahahah best video. i had a ttr and flogged it for 5 years. i wasnt as solid rider as tim but i did let geoff ballard have a go on it one day and watched him push it so hard. he loved it. currently looking for my next bike after a 13 year hiatus . something similar
For some reason I voluntarily signed up to be tossed into the Canadian wilderness for 6 days with you this summer. And if that wasn't enough I also get to go to a training day to make my riding worse. Not sure how that happened. In all seriousness I can't wait
One day i will finish my 1984 tt600 retro project. And btw if anyone is wondering, those old air cooled singles are some of the best experiences one can have.
@@dark-starchemistryfabricat2405 well in the meantime i got a 2000 pajero, a 78 xt500 and a insurance write off ktm 990 adventure. All of which needs restoring. Further with the pajero then any of the other projects.
back in 2006 when I decided out of the blue that I wanted to get a dirt bike that was exactly my first bike! A barely used 2004 TTR-250, for half the original price. Had a blast with it for one year, until I rode well enough that the bike was leaving me wanting more. Moved up to a 2007 WR450F, modded the heck out of the WR with YZ parts and turned it into a real fire-breathing beast.
@@dark-starchemistryfabricat2405 lol, what? The wr450f is in my garage, next to a yz450f. I'm 40 now, so I don't get to ride as much as I did in my 20s, but it still brings me plenty of joy when I do get to ride.
Actually the bike seems to be pretty good. For sure it's not an extreme enduro bike, but for some light enduro stuff, and trail riding i think it is a good choice. Anyway it was a great video like!
a bit of revalving i think, connor. interestingly though, the forks are highly regarded by many and i heard about a very fast guy who even put TTR forks on his YZs for racing.
yz's and wr's having a lent back fork rake so putting ttr forks brings that steering angle in steeper making it more responsive in the tight stuff, but twitchy on the sand and at speed.
I've been through KTMs, Hondas, 450's 250's, 2-strokes, etc... I have the most fun and ride just as fast on my TTR250! I'm just a casual trail rider, but finished 15th out of 35 riders in the last Hare Scramble on my TTR... beat quite a few bigger nicer bikes. Just a fun and comfortable ride, NOT for the mx track though, lol.
i can still remember a crazy dash through our tracks and i could barely keep up with a DRZ400 on my FE570 lol. it's more about the rider than the bike hey?
So true. I have a neighbor that is almost 60 and will always be faster than me in the woods... on any bike. Got my TTR250 in top shape now... new tires, chain, sprockets, Pro Taper bars, new gel battery, rebuilt front and back brakes. Finished last night and ready to rock!
Sure is... My neighbor is almost 60 and can outrun me on anything. Got my TTR in top shape though... finished last night. New tires, chain, sprockets, Pro Taper bars, grips, gel battery... Ready to ride!
I love this style of old trail bike, it's a pity they are so rare now and it's either ultra soft heavy dual sport bikes or the high performance expensive enduro models.
I thought one of these would be a wonderful bike for my wife as a trail bike/farm bike. I hear they're very reliable and fairly low maintenance, which it should be as it's air cooled.
markmtbrider she's 6 foot tall but skinny, she's pretty strong though from growing up on the farm but she's a rail, definitely needs a full size bike for sure though and my only concern is I don't want a water cooled 4 stroke like a yz or ktm 250f due to the maintenance costs in the long run and I'd fear a 250 2t might have a bit much ass for her especially if she wiskey throttled it. I've started teaching her on my yz125 and the issue there is as its a great bike it just demands an aggressiveness that I doubt she'd want to put into it. So maybe a used 200 2t wouldn't be a bad idea? I've never rode one so if anyone has any comments on that I'd appreciate the input.
Backyard Boosters - I think your wife would do fine on a TTR. They're really plush on the suspension, electric start, and tame on the power but still plenty for a moderate rider to have plenty of fun. But like I said, they are roughly 40 lbs heavier than most of today's enduro bikes so you may have to stop and help her when she drops it. ;)
Good one! I hope you will be allowed to do a review of the awesome Yamaha TW 200 some day. Not even the Berg's need a rear tire as wide to put the power to the ground. Like the mighty DR 650, the TW 200 takes a special breed of rider to tame the beast into submission!
I have been looking at these bikes lately as a possible replacement for my KLR 650. I rarely carry more than what my throw-over bags can handle and the KLR doesn't have a lot going for it in the single track department. I wonder what these bikes are like at 60mph carrying a 220lb, 6'3" rider?
I had one and loved it but the motor was sucked out for a 250. The build quality the fit and finish was brilliant and the motor unbreakable but a tad slow
i agree manyo. it's actually quite a capable bike and if you don't have long straights then can easily mix it up with 450s. this review reached exactly that conclusion: www.bikesales.com.au/editorial/details/yamaha-ttr250-16154/
Manyo Herndez you could make some money in the gncc or national enduro races too. dont forget the Tennessee knockout. i will be watching for your name.in the results.
Cool bike man very impressed! Could you tell me where you found the front and rear fender graphics/decals and any tips on making my ttr faster on a low budget since covid19 has made me loose my job gf and the bike is all I have to take my mind off things. Thanks man.
This belonged to a guy interstate and unfortunately he sold it a few years ago. Not sure if there are any cheap power mods, the big bore kit was expensive. Good luck with the job hunting, a lot of people struggling at the moment. 😢
I would argue not brain of putty, but a gyroscope. Ever noticed that about top riders? Its like Tims got Sonys mechanical stabilization built into his head. Can you ask him if this is in fact the case? If I can get the surgery done in Mexico or Thailand along with my penis augmentation it would save another ticket and more time off work.
he has got that bike going very well eazy all round bike to go quiet fast on in the bush. needs some riding gear good oil clean air filter last for years.
This video is amazing 🤣. Trading in my 15 ktm 300 on one on Monday lol /s. Seriously though you're hilarious and I'm going to go for the paid content this week because of this.
Nope, unless you want to trim it down and have it look like shit…. what I did was buy the OEM Looking TTR graphics and then I added a FASTHOUSE sticker on the shroud which actually sits perfectly symmetrical on top of the white/blue graphics…it looked like it was meant to be there….I also added some DBK stickers in small strategic spots because i like their stuff….And a custom Fasthouse front number plate with my name on it…Looks like a fasthouse kit…but its not lol
I've got 3 xt350s n 2 xt250s and xr350 all old school n they are fucking awesome..paired with a set of nads of steel..I'm 60+ and still muscle them about no problem ..also have 2012 ktm sxf 250 husky 410 etc.ktm300exc n more ...anyone want a go for a ride???
not sure gilles but i have heard the WR250R is so heavy that other bikes tend to orbit around it... and some have even collapsed in on themselves to form black holes.
Seat like sofa suspension like a blow up doll but a very capable bike. The thing with Yamaha is they just seem to be stuck in the 80s and don't innovate there bikes any more, they could be so much more shame really
agreed, most of their bikes are very good solid platforms but they just don't bother dragging them into the 21st century. :( that was the main theme in our YZ250X non-review: th-cam.com/video/h4Gtt4FZtqQ/w-d-xo.html
Wow I'm honoured to have a text from you I really am. I have watched all your videos and you have taught me so much I thank you for that 👍. Yes and a good piss take to 😆 my mate had one and I had a go on it so know the bike well. Wicked videos keep them coming from a Welsh man in the U.K. 😜

Not so much cheap these day pal,.👊✌💚👍
Started riding last spring. This year I "upgraded" from a 1981 XT250 to a 2006 TTR250 this year. I am happy so far, it's a nice bike to learn on.
Great bikes, I put 25,000+ miles on mine and the valves never budged. Never any mechanical issues, at all really. I don't know another single 250cc bike that's built as tough with fewer gremlins.

my TTR 250 just blew up yesterday... But it has been nothing but reliable before that
@@pascalrieder9216 Well... as with all motors, that's bound to happen eventually.

I agree ...its a BETA Crosstrainer .just half the price ..and twice as tough..
Bighorn Backcountry and twice as heavy
look for a dt230 its the 2 stroke version of the ttr and is basically the cheap old version of the modern 2 stroke cross trainer. And who doesnt love the ting and feel of the 2 smokeers.

bought one for $900, sold it for $1100, rode that unit EVERYWHERE for like 9 months. excellent starter loaner bike

It's not 20 but 30hp, and his is bored out to 325, so it must be at least 35hp !
Saw one today. Got the pipe glowing red with sustained revving. So extra. Much wow.
I purchased one of these because of this review. Everything stated about this bike in the video is 100% true
I'm glad you've survived riding the beast so far, Daniel!

It’s a very good first bike and plenty capable. Not a racer by any means but that doesn’t mean it can’t keep up with a good rider.
I have her too. You still ride it?

BAha HaHa OK Barry !
Connor Severance he built the motor, that thing is riding higher in the stroke than any std american ttr... i agree on the beefed up boingers.
yz's and wr's having a lent back fork rake so putting ttr forks brings that steering angle in steeper making it more responsive in the tight stuff, but twitchy on the sand and at speed.

I had the 94 Open Enduro tin tank, a 280 bb kit, Staintune pipe and it was a genuine weapon. Id have one today if i could find a clean one
I love this style of old trail bike, it's a pity they are so rare now and it's either ultra soft heavy dual sport bikes or the high performance expensive enduro models.
Yes... I'm wearing protective gear, even as Im watching your video ! I've been warned... THANKS !
Good to hear, Rahul. I assume you mean you are wearing a condom for protection?
I thought one of these would be a wonderful bike for my wife as a trail bike/farm bike. I hear they're very reliable and fairly low maintenance, which it should be as it's air cooled.
Backyard Boosters they weigh close to 300 lbs. she better be a big strong farm girl.
Backyard Boosters - You're close. Right at 270 lbs.
markmtbrider eh I wouldn't think the weight would be much of an issue until you have to pick it up, or maybe I'm wrong?

Search TH-cam for fortnine tw200 for a great video from Canada.
This shite is absolutely brilliant!!!!!!! Thanks for the laughs, it made my night! Cheers mate🍻

You woukd notice every steep hill slowing you down along with a head wind. They are a bit sluggy up top!
you should look for the DT 125 R / or DT 200 R thats a bike for every thing
Enjoyed watching this 😁
I had one and loved it but the motor was sucked out for a 250. The build quality the fit and finish was brilliant and the motor unbreakable but a tad slow
TTRs may not be taken very seriously but they are very underrated on hard core trails. I'll run down and smoke any one riding a 450.
i agree manyo. it's actually quite a capable bike and if you don't have long straights then can easily mix it up with 450s. this review reached exactly that conclusion: www.bikesales.com.au/editorial/details/yamaha-ttr250-16154/
yes exactly right. they'll never win in a shootout but for everything else they can keep up. thanks for the video.
Manyo Herndez they have a spot for you at erzberg.
Manyo Herndez you could make some money in the gncc or national enduro races too. dont forget the Tennessee knockout. i will be watching for your name.in the results.
markmtbrider True that. Just look for your name in the results and you'll find mine constantly finishing 2 places ahead of you. Happy Mothers Day.
Greetings from Greece! What is the horsepower with the 325cc kit?
The boldest, newest graphics.
Is it actually bored out? Btw I have an old ttr 250 my self, great bike I don't see why people are hating.
yep, bored out and some suspension work. it would be aweome if they came like this from the factory....
CROSS TRAINING ENDURO SKILLS agreed do you have any idea where he got the parts from?
no idea :(
And it never dies!!!
Thats not an Aussie adr headlight. It looks great. What is it off?
Thanks
My favorite 4 stroke small bike is the trr 125
Christian 777 i just sold my ttr125 to get a xt225. they feel very alike.
Hey the CT70 was my first dirt bike! it even looked like a sewing machine! lol..... but man I had fun with that thing!
Same here...it was tougher than 2 10 y/o kids plus the neighbors'
i broke my clavicle while watching this vid. was going to sue, but remembered the disclaimer. untill next time gadget, next time!
it's a dangerous sport... almost got my penis caught in the chain while riding yesterday because i left my fly open :(

I broke my Fallopian tube watching this.
I had a CT-70 in blue.........My first bike....Got it for 40 bucks, used, in 1977.
just got one as my first dirtbike

Its a kiddy bike bro
Ttr 250 ist the perfect bike your wife😎
What power I own one it's air cooled and gutless , I also own a KTM 450 exc , now that's power
i tried this when i was 16 that mean last year and was perfect

Can you ask him if this is in fact the case? If I can get the surgery done in Mexico or Thailand along with my penis augmentation it would save another ticket and more time off work.
Must be why Colin Edwards uses them for his flat track training camps
he has got that bike going very well eazy all round bike to go quiet fast on in the bush. needs some riding gear good oil clean air filter last for years.
Haha...that was good. Love the TTR.
Haha, not sure I would like to feature in one of your videos though....
Now what about the ttr225 mine is a beast when trailing
I see that Yamaha sells a ttr230. Is that still pretty much the same bike with a slightly smaller engine?
I don't know, we know very little about the dual sport bikes.
haha, very funny video! Made me laugh. Although I absolutely loved my ttr250 back in the day
This video is amazing 🤣. Trading in my 15 ktm 300 on one on Monday lol /s. Seriously though you're hilarious and I'm going to go for the paid content this week because of this.
yes, keep the kato for at least a few years and train hard in preparation for the TTR one day.... :)
Can I fit a TTR230 graphics kit on the 250? There are no kits that I like that are available. Seems to be like 2.
Nope, unless you want to trim it down and have it look like shit…. what I did was buy the OEM Looking TTR graphics and then I added a FASTHOUSE sticker on the shroud which actually sits perfectly symmetrical on top of the white/blue graphics…it looked like it was meant to be there….I also added some DBK stickers in small strategic spots because i like their stuff….And a custom Fasthouse front number plate with my name on it…Looks like a fasthouse kit…but its not lol
Kind of like me on my xt250 lol. No beta for me now going TTR! Lol
Buenas noches mí hermano querido. Me gusta esas motos Yamaha trr 250.también tengo una saludos desde Venezuela catuaro
SOLD.
I was 12 when I rode one and it has heaps of powerr
I own this bike as agift from my dad, its incredible !!!!
Worth keeping Moses... most manufacturers simply don't make bikes like this anymore. The original "trail bike"!
Your Dad knows what quality looks like
Pretty sure this guy is related to the hill climb guy in the original "moto xxx" movie
I'll keep my 125 two stroke thank you.
Nice blue XR
Lol that Canadian accent is mint!
he is not canadian bro...he is an auzzie...
I own a ttr250. way to much power, so I bought a wr250f way easier to control if your gonads are normal sized.
amazing bike
Very nice video ;)
I've got 3 xt350s n 2 xt250s and xr350 all old school n they are fucking awesome..paired with a set of nads of steel..I'm 60+ and still muscle them about no problem ..also have 2012 ktm sxf 250 husky 410 etc.ktm300exc n more ...anyone want a go for a ride???
You go timmy
Awe fuck I'm putting the 300 up for sale, I need all that tech, I hate it when my left nut hits the positive terminal
only plus side is electrocuting the pubes straighten them....
mine just get singed but I do get a lighting rod :D
The main reason you don't see these on a track is because they are a TRAIL BIKE...
ohhhhh fr?
Bryson Stamper yeah
What are (mechanically) weak spots of this bike?
The rider
Is that volcanic ash you’re riding on?
no just regular tasmanian dirt
👍🏻👍🏻
that bike will outlast any other trail bike and that is a fact..i can only compare it to the honda xr 250...
Yep don't need armor when you got body hair. Body hair is armor!
that's the spirit lol.
You fell on the head before making this video? :D
Certains disent qu'il est tombé dans la marmite, tête la première, quand il était petit
After watching that TTR Tim guy I feel compelled to ride the shiet outta my DT125RE now 😄
How is this lethal weapon fighting against that other beast WR250R ?
not sure gilles but i have heard the WR250R is so heavy that other bikes tend to orbit around it... and some have even collapsed in on themselves to form black holes.
@@crosstrainingenduro someone told me that the return from that black hole appeared like a WR250F, that one that sent me 6 months out of riding 😂😅
What year is this ttr?
Does anyone know what's the possibility of fitting a ttr250 engine on a xt225?
Why?
How does it compare to a Suzuki DR 200?
No idea, we've never ridden a DR200.
all the bike anyone could ever need
I have a 2009 klx250s Barry. Whatever you do, don't attempt to ride and review this killer machine. 😊
i doubt i'll ever be ready for the lean mean green machine 😢
@@crosstrainingenduro it takes a special sort of Gumby mate.
I'm pretty sure he'd beat me on my Husky TE250 on that thing. Sadly this is true.
But how?!!
You are but mere Mortals!!!
we paid a fortune for a handkerchief soaked in the sweat of graham jarvis.... the rider took several deep sniffs before even approaching the TTR.
So the video was about a ttr325.
yes but don't tell anyone
Tradies are the strongest people on earth
And I thought you were being mean towards the poor little XR200.....
where is the XD icon?
Seat like sofa suspension like a blow up doll but a very capable bike. The thing with Yamaha is they just seem to be stuck in the 80s and don't innovate there bikes any more, they could be so much more shame really
agreed, most of their bikes are very good solid platforms but they just don't bother dragging them into the 21st century. :( that was the main theme in our YZ250X non-review: th-cam.com/video/h4Gtt4FZtqQ/w-d-xo.html
Wow I'm honoured to have a text from you I really am. I have watched all your videos and you have taught me so much I thank you for that 👍. Yes and a good piss take to 😆 my mate had one and I had a go on it so know the bike well. Wicked videos keep them coming from a Welsh man in the U.K. 😜
i think this is going to be graeme jarvises next bike first thing he would do would be go up mt everest
wtf did I just watch? you owe me data mate!!!
absolutely owen... please refer to our double your money back refund guarantee
CROSS TRAINING ENDURO SKILLS. lol. Do we have to fill out paper work?

Owen Boonzaier hahahaha
Hahaha. Awsome video
