How to Maintain a Yamaha TTR50 Dirt Bike: A beginner's guide 

Don’t waste your time taking the battery out when it dies. Put er in second gear with key and run switch on and lean it onto the kickstand and rotate the back tire quickly while its in the air and BOOM stationary bump start. Works great as I have a little guy that forgets to turn key off as well.

Good video! But let me add that if it is going to sit for any period of time, to drain the little bit of fuel left in the carbonator. To do that, turn the fuel cock to off a few minutes before you are done riding. Once the bike had shut off from not having any fuel, turn the Phillips head screw that is below the fuel cock to open and drain the fuel. Leaving old fuel in can and will clog the carb. Now, don't forget to tighten the screw. Hope this helps.

I got sick of having to clean oil out of the airbox every time the bike got tipped over. The crankcase vent is connected to the airbox, and this is what causes it to fill. I used about 2' of fuel line to re-route the crankcase vent to the front of the engine where the other drain tubes hang. Make sure you also plug the hole on the airbox that you disconnected the crankcase vent tubing from. Since doing that, the oil problem has been solved. Oil doesn't even drain out. Some will spill into the tubing, and then when you pick the bike up to flows right back into the crankcase.

Very helpful! Although I don’t think Honda made a ttr50 lol

What tools do I need for a valve seal replacement on a ttr50 ?

Hello, I’m new in this thing and i want to buy a TTR-50 for my son. I notice that this clip is from 6 years ago. Is it worth buying it? Thanks for the clip!

Just got this bike for my grandson yesterday, he is a beginner and so am I. The dealer said I can adjust the amount of powerby the screw below the left handlebar.does anyone know how to do this.the bike has to much power for him right now

Do you know how to adjust the idle?

When you took the seat off I notice something fell out and you did it. There are 2 metal bushings that The boats that hold the seat on go through and they fall out easily I am missing one as we speak it was easily fixed with a washer but I believe this is something that happens often...... Good Video but it's not a Honda lol

My son left the key on..battery didnt go dead and fuse on battery didnt blow....but now it does nothing no click just silence , I can bump start it but I'm stumped ..anyone have a idea ..thanks

Just pick one up for the grandson only about 4 hours on it

Lol @7.50 Honda TTR50, but overall good video 👍

The kill switch should kill all power coming from the battery... I completely removed the ignition from my sons bike and the battery seems fine... just make sure the switch is off when you put the bike away... that way you kids can simply kill the bike when they fall and flip the switch when they are ready to start it.. (also good safety practice to use the kill switch specially after a fall) 100% agree with the tires... the stock tires are junk so spend the money in new tires (the are super cheap and your kids will wipe out a lot less) With the air filter, I removed the air box and installed an after market UNI filter ($16) and the bike runs better, this bikes are known to come too rich from factory therefore the carb needs more air. Let me know if you have questions on the bike and I might be able to help, I’m a semi experienced rider and my son rides a 50 just like yours and I have been able to solve some of the growing pins with the bike and riding in general... Ride safe 👍

Add a Battery Tender and you wont have to remove the seat or take our battery to charge it.

You said Honda ttr 50
