Built around Yamaha's enduro - offroad motorcycle platform, the 2009 Yamaha TT-R125E utilizes a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 54.0 x 54.0 mm (2.1 x 2.1 inches) with a 10.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the TT-R125E measures 89.8 kg (198 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 775 mm (30.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,250 mm (49.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 6.05-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
