Engineered by Yamaha for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2015 Yamaha TT-R50E features a 49 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 36.0 x 48.6 mm (1.4 x 1.9 inches) with a 9.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the TT-R50E measures 57.2 kg (126 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 556 mm (21.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 925 mm (36.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 3.1-liter (0.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
