Engineered by Yamaha for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2006 Yamaha TZR utilizes a 49.7 cc (3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 1.7 HP (1.3 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 2.6 Nm (1.9 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.3 x 39.0 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches) with a 11.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the TZR measures 113 kg (249 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,341 mm (52.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13.8-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
