Engineered by Yamaha for the allround motorcycle segment, the 2006 Yamaha TW 200 relies on a 196 cc (12 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 67.0 x 55.7 mm (2.6 x 2.2 inches) with a 9.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the TW 200 measures 118 kg (260 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,326 mm (52.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
