TT600RE help.
im rebuilding a bike for a very long trip, im searching the internet a lot for helpfull answers but still not sure with few questions, hope you will help
1. engine, i want to change the whole engine(some threads broken etc..) but dont know which engine will fit, my search had led me to 3tb(5'th gear problem fixed?). is the 3tb engine what im looking for?
2. my tt600re carburetor is broken(there is a crack inside..), and im not sure if xt600 carb will fit? what carb would fit instead of the original one? would you recommend mikuni flatslide(too expensive but.. maybe).
this is for now, thank you alot!

hi, thanks. what do you think on this one? this is 3uy sold only in USA, i dont know much about.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/382245747711?ul_noapp=true
if i buy this one,what do you think does it need any further 'openings' or 'reparations'? i mean, what if this engine has sat a long time and wasnt 'started', can there be any 'damage' because of that? its 1995 year and looks like new on the photos.
thanks..

Would be nice if they can provide you with compression test, dont know this company and its hard to tell history of the engine. Shipping price will be insane to your country, search ebay germany or others here in europe.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
