Love the bike. I am doing the exact same thing to mine also. So far Ive done the handlebars,exhaust,painted it matte black, and digital speedometer. I plan on doing the carb,airbox,forks and swing arm next. It'll take sometime but itll be worth it and fun
Fly Tape is the cheapest and most effective way to control flies. Buy a pack of half a dozen and hang up every one of them in your garage. You'll be surprised how quickly they start to get stuck. Let them fill up, take 'em down and throw them away and just keep hanging up new ones until they stop filling up. Edit: Quick question, I read that the TT250 had some kind of charcoal filter on it. What's that about?
Thought the bike was done for so we had all these storms come though here on the coast recently and got stuck being out in the rain couple times being at work went to start it one day afterwork 20 mins or so finally it starts drive home turn it off tried to start it nothing took me afew days to figure out the issue smelled the gas and could tell had water in it come to find out the gasket at the gas cap was bad drained the tank flushed with fresh gas then ran come carb cleaner with a fresh full tank fired it off thick white smoke shut it down was stuck thought she was done for tbh pulled the air filter and found atleast 3 inchs of water in the airbox filter stopped up to shit pulled the airbox cleaned it pulled the carb cleaned it flushed the oil fresh oil fresh gas again fired it off smoked for a sec died off hasnt smoked since or gave me any issue other than she spitts a little when you full throttle it was doing it befor the water issue anythoughts?
You didn't actually improve the airflow at all ...I'm sorry to say! however you can fairly easy by making 2 ...1" hole saw holes in the lid and use a plastic cap from a water bottle or gator-aid bottle and hot glue them over the holes and trim the back edge of the lid into a scoop like the center one is... 3 would be better if you have that many caps ! the reason I say you didn't change a thing is the fact that on the underside looking as the air-scoop the Hole it is glued over is the restricting factor not the rubber on the top so the solution is to add more holes but you want to keep the water out TOO.... so use a cap of some sort and open up one side of it and silicone or hot glue them on real good.... I am in the proccess of adding a 30mm Nibbi carb to my TT250 and have been considering performance .....
The k&n lawn mower filter fits and improves performance as much as changing the exhaust.

Nice you got it fully modded
Hey man have you figured out what the lock thing is in front of the little tool box?
Helmet lock.
Can’t you just put a universal K&N clamp on filter in there?
kn filters let through so much shit. that is the last thing that should go on any motor. hope that helps.
