The TTR is a multi purpose bike. I lost the anchor on my fishing boat and purchased one of these as it was cheaper and heavier than a replacement. It's a little tough getting it over the side but it sets well and seems to be doing the job.
A Yamaha snowmobile would've done the trick as well.
Make my day😂
Nice 😂
If you need something heavier I have a F250 diesel that should hold the boat in place. It’s a 4x4 so you can probably just drive it over the side. Be a lot easier than flipping the bike over.
My buddy bought his boy 1 and a anchor is a much better use for it 😂😂
I'm sure other TTR230 owners that have this bike wish that Yamaha would have provided a kick starter. Amazing amount of damage and issues for a "newer" bike. Previous owner(s) rode this one hard and issues developed and clearly didn't have the skills, patience, or tools to fix it properly. Always enjoy your skill set and self-learned knowledge in showing the rest of the viewing audience how to resolve the issues. Also, editing, and the time it takes to do all this is a full-time thing. Much appreciated. You have a lot going on now Joe besides just seeking out and fixing bikes. Congrats on your land acquisition and future plans! Cheers!
Yeah this bike was beat in pretty hard
Yamaha used to sell a kickstarter kit for those bikes I had electric and Kickstart the power Is disappointing for a 230 my xr100 would keep up way to easily for the engine being more then twice the cc
@@Ja-fh8io I had the Honda version. Your 230 must have been a dog. No 100 could remotely keep up with mine. But your right for the size they aren’t power houses.
I never treated the bikes that rough .
It simply wasn't worth IT for multiple reasons
@@greatest_bumble_bee_dude me either. I rode mine hard. But, I always changed the oil every two to three rides, and cleaned the air filter. Lubed the chain, and cables the same frequency. Just regular maintenance. Drained the fuel in the winter, and a shot of oil in the cylinder when storing. Never ever had a failure, and the bikes had tons of life left when I sold them. Plus I always cleaned and detailed them after every single major ride. The key is maintenance, and don’t push them beyond their intended purpose.
Really well built starter .Never seen one that bad before.
I really enjoy watching you fix all these machines. One suggestion for you. When you removed the wire from the starter and checked for 12 V when pressing the button you got 12 V however you need to confirm that the wiring can carry current. Make youself a set of test lights using headlight sockets, tail light sockets, and side marker sockets. This way you can connect from that wire to ground and confirm that it can light a 9004 headlight. You could also voltage drop test the wire but the lights are simple and effective. Keep up the great work.
Great to follow the way you went about figuring where the issues were. I have a 2022 TT-R230 for trail. Seeing what (abuse) can happen to an "old" one, I for certain want to take care of mine to ride it for many years.
I own a 2006 Ttr230 and those boots off the carb dry and Crack like that. Just had to replace mine last week. I've beat the brakes off of it at the badlands here in Indiana and it has never once let me down. Keep the videos coming man you're a big inspiration for us guys who enjoy the sport. Been watching your 300ex videos over and over as I'm doing a full top end rebuild on mine.
I love these rebuild vids! keep em coming mate!
Oh man I'd never own a bike for trails that doesn't have kick start. Great vid as usual. I've learned something again which is why I luv these vids.
Very helpful. Thanks for going in depth on this bike!
Something about rode hard and put away wet comes to mind. Good work young man. You constantly impress.
I think my favorite part of these videos is finding the bodgy fixes that previous owners have made. The RTV on the intake boot was great.
Wow, impressive, you really do a great job working on these bikes !!
When I heard that clunk after you installed the new starter motor, I immediately knew what had happened. My partners ttr-230 had the exact same thing happen to her. We were riding together and her bike just seized up, took it apart and found the flywheel just like yours had snapped its bolts clean off. There was massive damage on the inner section from where the bolts had worn down the inner section. Luckily the local yamaha shop had one in stock. I'd never seen anything like it. It's only a 2016 model it hardly had many km's on it. Surprising how common these issues are becoming.
Awesome job as always man but I would definitely have removed the right hand side cover and check the oil screen in the very bottom of the motor it most likely has metal chunks in it. Looking forward to the next one
You did a great job on this one.
Oh yeah 😎 Something to watch after work 👍🏼👍🏼❤️❤️
👍Had 2 230s 15years ago , both rode hard ! Typical boot issues . Not fast but good trail bike. Me&Son now on 700 Raptors Big Difference lol
Joe,I love ure finds,and njoy the process u go through!🤔👍👍👍
You should buy you one of those bike baskets/rack that slips into the reciever hitch of your truck those things are pretty cool and it makes loading a bike simple
Pretty funny when you opened the starter up. Dig your videos and like your deals you bring back to life👍🏼👍🏼
Had a ttr230 and had to sell it for extra money before I went off too college :(. Had that thing for years, never let me down. Wait until you get to ride that thing. It’s actually not so slow, just a little on the heavy side. Point and that beast will climb. This video has me missing mine
Never seen a liquified starter before 😂
Another great vid keep them coming 👍😃
I love the ttr platform. I'd trade my full rebuilt kx85 for one if I had the chance. That boot tear is a normal yamaha thing and hard to spot unless back fire issues come up. I have seen the bolts back out to and shear heads off but you did right thing by making sure to use that lock tight. Great video and like mine on to the next project
Clean the carb base gasket, fill the gap with Seal All, place the base gasket between the jaws of a vise. Let it dry, problem resolved. Only thing that'll fix boots without failing.
Not sure how many ppl read adds to old posts but little tech tip, those spring loaded center punches you can get, the ones you put on the metal and push and it has a built in "hammer", use them to pop that pin out instead of a hammer and punch.
Seen those strters come apart inside, game over!!!😮
Last few years you really got your system dialed in bro. Nice y zinger
Have a 2001 TTR 150 and love the bike. Never have had any issues with it yet other than I wish it would start up quicker when cold.
Love your process. So, were the metal chunks from the broken bolts?
Clutch material in oil filter.
You were right I would have not ever guessed that one in a million years.
that same thing happened to my friends klx110L with the one way bearing bolts sheering. that bike had alot of electric start issues lol, that one way clutch was so bad and kept breaking.
Solid work brother!
Hey bro I’ve been doing what you have been doing for 2 years now. Probably have sold at least 50 bikes. Your vid’s really got me in this. Now moving bigger to cruiser motorcycles. The market is crazy for those right now. Maybe you should get into it ?
That’s cool. I was a mechanic for over 40 years. Never saw one that exploded
love the channel thanks for the videos thanks for showing elimanate the problems.
Another good video! Those 4 strokes don’t like throttle when trying to start them just so you know . Nothing like 2 stoke
Needed a new 2vintage dirtbike video to watch. My girlfriend and I love your channel
Another excellent video, Joe. Thanks to you I got a great deal on three bikes and fixed them quickly. Congratulations to you and Jade on your new land purchase. It looks perfect for you.
Half efforts
Cuts corners
Buys an overload Of bikes along with Quad All terrain vehicles leaving them in the garage besides, makes me wonder where he's getting All that money to buy All the bikes in the first place
@@greatest_bumble_bee_dude and doesnt know how to use a volt meter...but hes gonna tell you how too...buthe is making hella money of kids watching his youtube...roflmao
All good
None Of My business , I suppose
thanks for videos helps me get motivated on my small engines apprexiate it bud have a good day today
Great cannot wait to see it ride
Good ol sprag gear. Probably where the metal came from. I got a low hour ds650x that sat for years because someone thought it was blown up and metal shavings in the oil. I got the quad for free and put about 1200 in it replacing tires and wheel bearings and cleaning it up in general and now it's a clean quad running like a champ. It had less than 30hrs on it. My boss family treats everything like it's disposable
shoe goo is your best friend when it comes to repairing cracked or broken intake boots... works like a hot damn!
You should save up that old waste oil and buy a small shop oil heater it would help out in the winter
Same thing happened to me on my 06 arctic cat 250 dvx. Even using red loctite and torqued to spec they still backed out. Almost destroyed my engine. I found out anytime those one bearing bolts are taken out they need to be replaced with new factory bolts. That's what arctic cat told me.
Nice step up from the ttr125
21:30 someone else he was messaging on face book messenger about another atv probably 😂
wow that starter was wilddd lol
I, enjoy watching your videos Joe great job thanks for sharing 🙀👍
Hey Joe, this is a commom problem with the TTRs 230. Those metal chunks come from the valves camshaft in contact with the engine housing. The valves camshaft is placed directly on the engine housing no bearings.
I agree . the pistons rub on the motors and that causes the valve to rub on the exhaust coupler. I sanded mine down with a belt sander and painted it blue. works great now
have been stuck at home last couple of days because of a injured back. can't do anything except watch youtube videos. just discovered your videos and I find them addicting. are you a shadetree mechanic, or do you work for a shop? you appear to be very thorough and competent. what do you do after you repair those bikes? I also noticed that you put new flooring in your garage.
new to your channel and i think you are amazing young man.....
Use a chem inert epoxy weld. J.B. has some, used it for all kinds of crazy customer breaks including cracked valve covers.
Another impressive job Joe, your confidence has grown by leaps and bounds! You have silenced most of the arrogant trolls that you always welcomed to comment. Now sell that awful, gutless 4 stroke abomination TTR230 PLEASE.
Nice job!
Good work joe
Bad as starter was would be good idea to change solenoid out to, may be fried internally. Good job.
Owned one of these exact models and we fought it for years until we got rid of it lol
Super Glue and baking soda on the carb brother old trick for any kinda of sealing or welding in a pinch
Try turning those bolts..before drilling...they usually will turn out..unless corroded..but inside they are cleaner...
The 125 was One of the most reliable bikes I’ve ever ridden,best the brakes out of it locked it up and it still ran a week later
Great video I enjoy your videos great channel love it
I think it had the float pin stand broke which led to flooding the cylinder thus causing a hydraulic lockup. Continuous starter uses destroyed the starter and sheared the bolts on the fly wheel.
Just learned something. Makes total sense. Thanks.
Your videos are amazing, lots of explanation and detail. You've definitely earned my subscription.
One question: I just picked up a 2016 TTR 230 and took the carburetor apart to rejet it for the aftermarket exhaust the previous owner had put on. I didn't like how it was running, and don't want to open up the airbox, so I took everything apart again and put the original jets back in. When I did, I forgot to put the little white plastic washer back on the main jet. The washer is kind of cupped, looks almost like it doubles as a splash guard of some kind.🤦🏻♂️ It's all together and runs perfectly; should I take it apart again to put that little washer back in place?
Yes, take it apart and put it back in. It will run without it but will run better when the terrain is really bumpy with it.
Ok i think ill just comment instead of trying to get first cause its like the 6th time ive missed the drop. Absolutely love the vids and learn new stuff about dirtbikes and quads every single video i watch. Keep up the good work!
Nobody cares about being "first". It's about challenge, learning, making money, and having fun on channels like this one.
Yamaha TTR230's are VERY good bikes. Low compression, air cooled, low maintenance torque monsters. Point them at a trail and they can haul your butt up and over anything in the way. Yes, they are heavy, but for trail riding that can be an advantage as well, keeps the bike planted and both wheels on the ground over rough, uneven terrain. The motors are simple and reliable and you would almost have to try to destroy them to get them to die. Enjoying the recent batch of Yamaha TTR content you have had on the channel lately. They are a fantastic line of motorcycles. (These are the exact opposites of today's prima donna $10k KTM's and Husky's with fuel injection and electronics everywhere - many of which do NOT have kick starters either folks.)
I’d rather have a xr250 or 200.
@@drearaujoa6 not a huge fan of starting and restarting an XR250, especially on trails....
Why is xr200 better? from what I can tell it has the same power and weight difference is only 15 lbs@@drearaujoa6
Is that the famous Osh Kosh 2022 Airshow we hear in the background Joseph?
Yes
The next seat cover you put on can you show how it’s done
Will that jb weld hold up with the gas that goes in the carb over time?
Man it sucks they took the baffle out of it cause they are nice and quiet.. my experience the 230 is no speed demon but is very fun it will tractor anywhere..
Sometimes a little tap tap taparoo on the starter frees the can't think of what they're called but they get stuck and frees them up and might have some life left
If it's fuel injection and the battery is dead a kick starter won't help. Need battery power to run the fuel pump to feed the injector for fuel injection.
That thing was all the way clapped out
17:08 for the love of god! Quarter and vise grips my friend!
Yea I wish my xt250 had a kick starter on it too.
Surprised you didn’t try bump starting the bike. That be the first thing I try to check once starter is off.
Sounds like a yamaha pre start. Little thunky but once it fires all good.
Wouldn't you want to get the pin out of that broken tower before jb welding it ..now the next person is 100% gunna brake the tower off again when they try to clean the carb
It was stuck in there
excuses don't answer a good question
you should be using J&B Water Weld putty works GR8 for Aluminum carb parts and fuel doesn't affect it..just saying.
Question are you not worried about the JB weld being broken down by the gas and getting into the system? New to DIY repairing, thanks for the vids man!
It’s resistant to chemicals when fully cured. But I get your concerns.
Personally I would have repaired it differently though.
Yo what flywheel puller did you use to get it off I can’t figure out what to use to get it off
Joe you gotta get a grizzly 700 in the later 2000s years I’d love to see thts girzzly 700s are Awsome
Alumiweld low temp rods from harbor fright for the carb???
awesome vid!
“Just a little bit” 😂😂
@2vintage you should build a kfx700
Next time you have a broken carb like that take a drill drill in each end of the broken part then take a paper clip and clip off about 2 mm of length stick it in each end that you drilled then put your JB Weld in it it will hold forever you just push it together
Hook jumper cables direct to starter should tell you if it or motor are bad.
Can we please check pipes & air cleaners & any boxes as well as take of any covers for belts to inspect & check for rodent contamination before we try and turn over the cranks so that we don't do any more damage than what it came in with ? I once sucked a mouse nest into the piston & I never want to do that again . All the places I mentioned I have found rodent infestation Excellent job BTW but I hope you get that thing tuned & running better .
This exact issue happened to my crf150f
if you stick it in 5th or 6th gear youll have a much easier time bump starting it
Maybe have the carb tig welded
That jb weld will not hold up in that carb. The gas will eat it up eventually and it will gum up the carb. I'm telling u I have tried everything when it comes to gas. I tried to patch a gas tank and nothing would hold up. It would last about a week and start leaking again.
Also good!!!!
my guess the one way gear locked when the starter tried to turn the fly wheel. It locked up and destroyed the starter.
"the starter's toast, just a little bit" lol
What do you mean? That starter is totally fine.
Commutator bars are for babies. In the old days they didn't even have starters... 😂
think the one-way clutch is called a sprag clutch crap design if the engine backfires it spins the starter backwards and will destroy the starter, or itself, or both.
