Hi all when I bought my WRR it had the speedo fault, if you haven't seen this its when the speedo runs much faster than it should do due to a the battery going flat.

Hi everyone I have been a TTR owner for a few years now and a great fan of the bike, so much so that I am buying Totally TTRs along with Totally WRs from Brian (with his blessing). My wife and I have decided that we would like to carry on all the good work that Brian and Trish have done I am hoping that with your su...

Hello to all avid greenlaners, Having been a member of the TRF for a good year or so, i have found trying to gain GPX map files of track loops through different counties, like trying to get blood from a stone . I know East Sussex very well, but would love to collect up a few more different counties such as W...

Haven't received any emails since 6pm GMT - not good when your business relies on their service

After spending too much time working on the bike I managed to complete the Border two day rally and the very enjoyable TRF Wessex Wanderer.

So far I have noticed that the URL to the front page photo has broken and I will fix it as soon as I recall how to do it! If anyone spots any other peculiarities relating to my WR web pages please let me know! Brian PS I really shouldn't mess with things I don't understand!

Hello all Just come back from a TRF trip to Yorkshire. Went up with a CRF250X and came back with a WR250R. Wanted one for sometime. Bought up trail riding on TTR's and just love the smoothness and feel of the Yamaha's in general. The Honda is lighter and more powerful but just not so gentle as the WR. The oth...

Hi all looking at getting a aftermarket slip on silencer for my wr250r I was thinking about a FMF one what does everybody use what's the best one and will they fit straight on with all the same fixing holes etc cheers martin

Forgive me father for I have sinned, I have owned my 2008 WR250R for about two months and this weekend was the first time that I took it out. The reasons were many fold, it needed a few jobs done, then a second bike came in that needed work and the family always need me the list goes on. However at the end of the...

Hi all after my first ride out I have to say how impressed I am with this bike. The best bit was the top speed 199KPH and it feels solid at that, it might be that that the speedo is a little out and after looking on line there could be an issue does any one know a fix for it ?

tried to get a 21 inch wheel for my x but no luck. so have just had a 21 inch rim spoked to my x hub seems to have sorted that problem, be better off road ready for the hiss event in spain at the end of may.

Anyone know where I can get some bike specific tank graphics for my 250r? The original ones are useless and have been jet washed off. Someone told me that's because of the strange plastic that Yamaha use. Any help please?

Hi all I want to change my spark plug can anyone tell me what the tourqe settings are for putting them back in as I'm struggling to find correct settings and don't want my tank falling off cheers martin

Hi all how do I check whether my wr250r is affected cheers martin

I think I may have mentioned Devon TRF Group's annual Axe-to-Exe (A2E) trail riding weekend before but, anyways up, it happened over the weekend. I was volunteered to lead a group and my brother Trev to be my help. A surprise visit from my son Matt resulted in a rapid bike build and he ended up riding my WR...
