Engineered by Yamaha for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2002 Yamaha TT-R 225 features a 223 cc (13.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 17.7 Nm (13.1 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 70.0 x 58.0 mm (2.8 x 2.3 inches) with a 9.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the TT-R 225 measures 118 kg (260 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,350 mm (53.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10-liter (2.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
