Engineered by Yamaha for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2007 Yamaha TT-R 230 pairs a 223 cc (13.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. 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 230 measures 109.8 kg (242 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 871 mm (34.3 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,384 mm (54.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7.94-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
