At the heart of the 2009 Yamaha TW200 allround motorcycle, Yamaha 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 TW200 measures 126.6 kg (279 lbs) wet (curb). 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. The 6.81-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.01 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 226 km (140 miles) between fill-ups.
