Positioned in Yamaha's enduro - offroad motorcycle lineup, the 2008 Yamaha TT-R125LE relies on a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. 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-R125LE measures 78 kg (172 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,270 mm (50 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.
