I think the TTR 250 is a keeper for you man. Seems like the perfect bike and you really seemed to enjoy rippin it in the fields. Another great video too.
Facts this bike is litterally the best bike for him and no other completely perfect for him
I literally have the same bike and it’s awesome
That is one of the best and most reliable trail bikes ever. I've had one for the last 10 years. I think you got it for a good price.
Yeah the TTR and then the Honda XR series bikes even the XL when it comes to four stroke trail bikes you can't beat them I mean you can go to a full boxing match with them bikes and they'll just keep running
@@stephencrisson3595 the Honda CRF 100f is the best
You guys ever look at the klx 230 and klx 300r fuel injection and disc brakes.
Xr owner here and I agree these ttrs are no.b proof it because there air filled and simplistic in design
The ttr230 is a great trail bike also the thing is an absolute tank little to no maintenance and will last forever I have a 2005 model one that’s had 3 other owners and it still looks in decent condition and rides like a dream although I am gonna order alll new plastics I wanna get a 2022 resto kit so it will look like a model 2022 ttr 230 lol
I have. 07 ttr 250 I daily mine to work everyday here in aus there awesome bikes
Excellent problem solving work, Joe! Nice bike
If you have a hammer drill, you can drill some deep holes in any huge rocks and fill 'em with water right before freezing temps hit. The ice will split 'em into manageable pieces.
My step dad had a 05 TTR 230 trail bike and that thing was a good machine. Few years later a buddy of mine traded my step dad a 01 Honda CR 250 with built bottom end and a big bore kit just needed new tires. The TTR 230 came with Pirelli tires factory so if the tires on the 250 might be similar.
Great bike and fix! Careful balling through that field never know what surprises awaits.
Love your channel. I just subscribed a while back. I've been riding 2 stroke MX Dirtbikes, since I was a young kid. Sadly, I never learned how to work on dirtbikes. Currently, I'm trying to learn, to save money. I don't like taking risks, when I spent 8k on a 2022 2 stroke GasGas MC 250, and having to worry about messing something up. I can do very very basic things with bikes, radiator, flush and refill, changing the motor oil, replacing spark plugs and gapping them. I'd like to learn how to work on the motor, radiator, taking tires off of the bike, and putting them back on, and servicing and replacing the brakes. I've been riding since 1978, at the age of 5, but I would be getting a very late start, in learning to work on dirtbikes, since I'm 49 years old. Lol..The GasGas is blood red, like the Honda 1988 and 1989 CR line. I was reading in the comments section of another You Tube Channel, that You and Ken Kaplan Sr and Jr should link up on You Tube, since You, Sr, and Junior would hit it off, Big Time. They own The New England Motorcycle Museum, in Rockville, Connecticut, as well as having become a new GasGas Dealership, and also restoring bikes from the frame off, with taking the engine off the frame. They also make some Custom Bikes and Restomods, and repair bikes. The vast majority of bikes, when they get done with them, look better than when they were new out of the crate. They all live by one another on a 56 Acre Compound. Just beautiful layout with a Motorcross Track on their family compound. They're Very Good and Patriotic People. They're two channels on You Tube are Kaplan America and Kaplan Cycles. They have a good following like yourself..I bought a 1985 Yamaha 2 stroke RZ 350 Kenny Roberts Edition Streetbike from them. I've had more powerful four stroke Jap Sportbikes before, but they rode very smooth...with inline 4 cylinder engines, but when you cracked on their throttle, they were quick. The Yamaha RZ 350 is a totally different ride. Much more aggressive in the sense, of when the powerband comes on the pipe. That RZ 350 was my dream bike. They restored it from the ground up, with the engine off the frame, putting in some better quality parts, then what it normally came with. I also bought the new GasGas 2 stroke MC 250 from them..They have the best customer service, that anybody could ever hope to get. I hope you contact Ken. I think y'all have a good bit in common. My name is Sonny, and I live in New Orleans, La. Nice meeting You, Brother. Much Love and Respect.
Congratulations on the land and the house it’s good to see the progress
Another great video mate but you do pay over the odds for these old track bikes plus the amount of work you do on them! Just glad you keep sharing these tho always a joy to watch and learn 👍👏
Your land looks like so much fun to ride through,Nice fix on the bike you got it running smooth👍🏼👍🏼
you described that bike perfectly while riding, its smooth! It might not be the most exciting bike, but you'll never regret owning or riding a predictable and reliable machine. Great video
Such a underrated Chanel. Love the content bro! Man I miss riding. Would love to hit some trails again!!!!
I'm not a big commenter, but just wanted to say how much I enjoy watching you work on vintage dirt bikes. If you ever get a chance to work on an old early seventies Suzuki TM 400 or any of the old TMs that would be just awesome. I got one of them new in 1972. Stupid fast with handling that was kind of low tech compared to today. It would make a man out of you or a hospital case. I guess I managed to stay out of the hospital haha.
Lmao. Those early 70's Suzuki TM's we're no joke, and when they stopped making them, they went to RM..You would love a Motorcycle Channel on You Tube called Kaplan America and Kaplan Cycles on You Tube. Actually 2 channels, and they are awesome. They restored a Suzuki TM 400 from the ground up, taking the engine off of the frame. Made it look better than when it came out of the crate, and was brand new. They called the bike, TM Zilla. Fast as shit. I was telling the owner of this channel up top, all about the Kaplan's Sr and Jr. You should check my comment to him out. I think you will like what you read about them..I stumbled upon them, about 6 months ago on You Tube and have bought a 2 stroke streetbike and 2 stroke MX Dirtbike, since I first discovered them. Take Care Brother.
@@sonnyseabury4051 Hey thanks a lot man. I watch the Kaplans!! I've seen that video about the restored TM-Zilla!!
Thanks for the reply. All those old vintage dirt bikes man they're really something.
What a ride down memory lane. I put a methanol carb on my old 400 once to see what it would do.......GOOD GOLLY.....I hit a jump and landed in my neighbor's yard & his shrubs. I put the stock carb back on😄.
@@miket.3144 100% agreed, Brother. Glad you know about the Kaplans. I make it a point to tell as many people about them on You Tube as I can. I stumbled upon their channels, that I didn't know even existed. I didn't know that family existed. With being to both of their channels now, I watch them everyday, and have bought a streetbike and new dirtbike from them. That's one truly amazing family, that I look up to big-time and admire. I can't wait to fly up to that town, meet them, hangout with them, your their museum, and go riding with them on their 56 Acre family compound. Take Care, Brother. It's been a pleasure talking to you. If you're on Facebook, feel free to send me a Friend Request, and please inbox me, reminding me about who you are. If you're ever in the market to buy a new or vintage 2 stroke dirtbike, the Kaplans are the people to go too. They can sell ice to an Eskimo. Great sales people. Take Care, Brother.
I just got a used dirt bike and your videos are SO Educational love them thanks!
A little tip,should always drain the float bowl before cranking it over when they have been sitting.when you crank it over first,your just sucking garbage fuel through the jets.
where is your video off fixing bikes
@@williecosgrove you can look on my page to c one of the bikes I built from the ground up.worked professionally on bikes,quads, snowmobiles,and side by sides for 40 years.
Nice bike, Good video. Can't wait to see the plans for the land!
Your Awsome at what you do! Just a little trick. If you have a no start, spray ether in the intake and if she runs you know very quickly it is a fuel problem. I always do this when I have no starts. And if still won’t run with ether you know it’s either a spark or compression issue
Great Job. Very helpful for me with same bike and similar issues.
You sure were blazin' a trail through the woods there Bud! I hope you have a skid plate for that engine! LoL Great vid!
love it! don't you replace the fork oil ever? never saw you do that in your videos. I'm a race bike guy, that's why I'm asking. TL1000R, GSXR600, currently GS500 from 1991 and a Suzuki Katana 50 to play a bit.
You find these gems all the time your so
Lucky I wish I could find this kinda stuff were I live but around here it’s always someone’s clapped out junk
Hi Joe, just curious what brand of tires are on your Yamaha. I have an old XT600 that needs tires.
Thanks, keep it up with the great videos.
Aaah the good old TTR 250 dual start. Had one for a short while here in the Netherlands. Wouldn't start very good. Had to try at least 20 times before it fired up. Low mileage, overhauled carb. Never found the issue.
When it was hot, it started right up. Almost before you could push the button all the way in.
Great machine !! Very intuitive fix! Did you check/change the motor oil ??
Love my TTR250 , its like the honda XR250 except better forks and E-start. Underrated bike for sure
Xr is lighter and faster tho
They are underrated because they are stupid heavy and slow as hell. An XR250 is very light and has at least SOME balls. Better forks than an XR250? What planet are you from? Are you comparing a 1980's XR250 to a 2010 TTR250? Even then the XR is 10X the bike. I own a 2001 XR250, and a 2004 TTR225. The XR250 is a beast, you can pull a wheelie just by twisting the throttle all the way through 3rd gear. The TTR takes some real effort to get the wheel up in any gear. XR250 has aluminum frame, fully adjustable front and rear suspension, and a legendary engine with good performance and great reliability, tunable exhaust. and a kick starter. TTR has electric start. Mine at least also usually has a dead battery making the electric start a nuisance. A dirt bike should never have to depend on a battery IMO, Anyway hate to bash the TTR, they have 2 wheels and an engine so I like 'em, but they are nothing like an XR250. That's why XR250's are such legends.
@@josephhollifield660 an xr250 with an aluminum frame? I guess you must have gotten a real special one lol. The ttr225 and 250 are nothing alike
@@josephhollifield660glad I found your post ,,I have a xr 250r but was considering buying a new ttr 230 ,,I wanted to know the difference between bikes thanks
Had the same problem on my ttr with the needle not letting enough gas in bowl, even do float high was in specs. I was getting only 1/4 of gas in the carb. Anyways Your video helped me! Thanks man
Do you sell all of the bikes you repair? Where can they be viewed? Thanks and keep up the good work. Say hi to skinny
Vinny.
nice job and thanks for sharing. take care and have a great day
got the same bike n good bike after all… been waiting for this video for a min already.. i recommend getting one for ur channel on a couple of comments
Great video! I have a 2000 TTR250. It runs good but breaks up at high rpm. The carb to the air box doesn’t seem like it has a good seal. Any suggestions. Thank you
Ever consider to get a Ultrasoon bath for the carb's Joe?? Good job anyhow again! 👍
You're getting some really nice bikes lately. Good work.
Nice bike joe and great fix some difference in the property now mate take care 🔧🔧🔧👍👌
Man love the channel I want to get into this my self any recommendations for starting out?
Working on a 1987 tt 350 right now live these bikes
Joe your a awesome mechanic, you can make a good living working on them for people
I had a 2000 TTR 250 if it had a kick start I would still have it. I Love it and never any problems
You are one sharp young man. Thanks for the videos.
I am always ready for your videos
Cool bike always thought these were similar to the ttr 225/230 but this came with a more powerful dohc motor compared to the sohc one in the 225/230. Not watched the full video but appreciate your content as always, keep up the good work dude
and ttr250 made in usa not china
@@shawncordeiro5078 no name brand bike is made in china, also japan not the usa.
@@Cooper391 Smaller Honda trail bikes are made in China like the crf50f, crf110f and the crf125f. The crf250f is made in Brazil
@@AppalachianLife i guess they get put together in places with cheaper labor now eh, always forget thats the new thing companies are doing.
@@Cooper391 249cc and smaller trail bikes are not made in japan
Crud city , definitely needed removing , but as you probably know just removing the drain screw / nut you can give short sharp blasts of compressed air to clean the pilot if its just old old fuel with out the crud , quick 1 second blasts won’t blow the diaphragm rubber.
what would you recommend doing to start flipping bikes like crf100’s and such i dont want to sell my 450 but i want other bikes to flip
With the "new" E10 fuel we have in Europe all old bikes have problem with dryed out seals (had to replace all rubber seals from complete fuel system (incl fuel hoses), of Suzuki Bandit 1200 from 1996)...
With older bikes it is now recommended to use Euro 98.
I bought my TTr250 last November for 1300. All it needed was a battery and a carb rebuild which was super easy. Super fun bike gunna put some new plastics on it soon.
Keep up the good work love the vid 😊
Really good video,,, thanks 👍
I don't know if its the camera making it look that way , but it looks like the rear fender is bent upwards
Sounds and runs like new bike
Have you thought about getting an ultrasonic cleaner? Love the videos and awesome content.I have learned a lot from your videos. Thank you for the content.
Don’t even think, just buy it. It’s one of my most used tools now for any cleaning, barely have to scrub with bushes anymore.
I'm sure he has one
hermosa moto saludos desde argentina y muy buenos y educativos tus videos 😁😁😁
29:35 was thinking for a dead battery when you got it she sure is doing a lot of turning the engine over lol also how are you so calm I'd of had a few choice words taking the carb in and out over and over 😅
😂 all these episodes and I thought you were saying 'rental bars' 🤔 😂
Can you get a parts washer with Safety-Kleen, Deluxe Cabinet Blaster, and bike wash? Then really clean it spotlessly pre working on it!
Time 2 make TT track in field now its harvested..Great fix as always. B safe.peace
I have a ttr 250 and can not get it running after doing the top end, but feel as though its a timing issue. any chance you messed with the timing on yours? i need help and cant find any.
Sweet bike. I love them old TTRs. When I was 13 I had an xr100 and my younger cousin had a ttr90. That was 20 years ago. Where does the time go ?
I have a 2006 TTR 250, my first ever bike, and it's been a pain. we got it and we were lied to, we were told that it had a new carb when in reality it only had a new needle and needle seat, even then it was sticking open and puking all over. I've had the bike apart multiple times and I've worked out all of the major kinks.
I installed a new float and carb kit (which are overpriced to hell btw) and now it's better, still runs a bit lean but now I'm able to do long trips oppose to the 20 minute short distance trips I'd get before, I hope you enjoy your bike as much as I do
Currently have a ttr250 and it's a great bike, I love it
yeah i have buy many bikes where have set flowders in wrong place i just blow on carp and in finger push it to see what spot its let air past then its easy to just bend flowers metal.
Find a Honda nsr 125 supersport I owned 1 when I was 19 it was alittle beast I love it when you finally get bikes running your good at it
when you leave fuel for a long time it breaks down into stick varnish once you clean it out with solvent it should be fixed just make sure you get all of it
love the videos
Good job figuring that out!!
Will you let them plant the field next year?
i always watch your videos i love it when you gonna repair a snowmobile 😎
snowmobiles suck lol
That field would be perfect for snowmobile jumps in the winter!
you said always use premium gas. how does higher octane stop the gas from getting gunked up ?
Another Nice fix! 👏👏👏
Man the carb on this bike looks like a pain to take out.
It is. But once you get the hang of it it’s not horrible.
Where do you get those oil feeder bottles??
How much do you think is a good price for one of these. Have one the exact same year and runs great. Looking to sell it
Very cool, Joe!
Needle seat has a screen usually. If it’s damaged the replacement is like $40 on some carbs.
They will usually come back and turn the field unless they wont be using your property again, nice job also
Great find
Nice bike with a strange problem. Well spotted Joe.
I'd guess the broken float mount was remounted in a very slightly different place which resulted in the needle no longer having the movement required.
Or maybe I'm guessing wrong.
Dude you could build your own pit bike tracks, flat track oval for driving flat track motorcycles. What a beast piece of land.
after seeing a few of your videos i went to a bike garage to take my moped for an mot, after sharing the knowledge i learned from your channel i ended up getting a job there that same day and it’s the best job i’ve ever had.
Thankyou for teaching me bro.
Nice job you did well there nice buy!
i got a 1989 klr 250 for $350. was hoping for smaller issues, but the engine has way low compression. + the kickstarter is slipping. gotta adleast rebuild the top end, but i might have to tear it all the way down for a complete rebuild. i would be more excited over that if i hade more room to work.
Hey Joe do you have any bikes for sale I'm looking for something maybe a 250 2-stroke or maybe even a nice trail bike four-stroke I just want to get in the woods again
I have an 04. It's a Great bike! Probably will out live me..
Joe you should get yourself a vapour blaster ...be nice to see.
If the bike is put away for a while and stored properly then it should run good when getting it ready to ride. It just depends on how well it was taken care of when stored for long period of time and I guess the value of the bike after a few years or more so maybe you did pay more but if not to bad to get it going again then should be okay to keep or hopefully sell and get your money back
Nice looking bike
I knew you’d get it going , what do you do with all the bikes you work on ? Do you sell em
yep he sell em
Great deal good job sounds awesome
How did the guy before you put the wrong needle in? And how did he break the float stand? Weird, real weird! But a hell of a job figuring it out
How would you compare it to an Xr250r? Do you keep all these machines or sell them after the vids? Great vid btw!
One guy posted your answer on here ha says the xr is lighter and faster with better suspension
Zeus fasteners are awesome for airbox covers.
Bikes have gone up in value, I used to buy bikes like that for 350 to 500 quid in England back in day but most off them were stolen and recovered no numbers on frame etc, I bought a gas gas it kept on cutting out it had a air lock in the cap on the petrol cap I bought it from a shop and it had a rubber thing in the cap for some reason an it stopped it breathing it puzzled me for a bit
Could they have put premix in there and that gunk is the oil. Great trail bike, I had one
So you took the fuel line off before you looked in the tank?
Ciao y’all, I got a TTR 250 I d like to change new plastic and new fuel tank.. anyone knows where and which online shop still sell them ?
First time ive never seen you check or drop the oil....
Not bad not bad at all... Nice trail bike for sure! 😎
Check your rectifier, should be charging at around 13 to 14 volts.
i have one , mines a 06 , its been GREAT most reliable bike ever
Nice bike I love 250s I've had them all at 60 I am as happy as can be on my xr250r but I would love a yamaha.
Xr owner here look at my channel
Damn, that looks like someone packed the petcock with grease lol. That can’t possibly be just from old gas.
