Yamaha's off-road family continues to produce more offspring. In 1999, Yamaha introduced the all-new electric-start four-stroke TT-R225 and TT-R250. For 2000, Yamaha introduces three all-new motorcycles, the TT-R90, TT-R125 and TT-R125L. The 2000 line of Yamaha off-road bikes, eight models total, has machines not only for the adults, but beginners and kids' bikes, as well.

The all-new TT-R125 and TT-R125L
four-strokes are the bigger brothers to the TT-R90. Powered by an all-new
air-cooled 4-stroke engine, the TT-R125 and the large wheel TT-R125L
complement Yamaha's existing RT100 2-stroke and offer beginner/smaller
riders the chance to ride a YZ-styled machine. The chassis design of both models utilizes much of the advanced technology based on the YZ80. Powering the TT-R125 is an all-new 125cc SOHC air-cooled 4-stroke engine that delivers strong low to mid-range torque, making it suitable for both new and experienced riders. Reliable, economical, quiet and clean-running, this low-maintenance 4-stroke powerplant ensures that the TT-R125 is both fun to ride and easy to maintain. The most obvious feature of the new TT-R125 is its YZ-inspired bodywork, which gives it a motocross bike look. Equipped with a YZ-style tank, air scoops, front and rear fenders, sidepanels, front number plate and seat, the TT-R's MX heritage is clear. The tubular high tensile steel frame is mated to long travel front forks and a Monocross rear suspension system, that are designed to offer a smooth ride and excellent traction on a variety of terrain. |
