THE 2000 TT-R250.

THE 2000 TT-R250.

Continuing to develop and increase the Yamaha line of off-road motorcycles, Yamaha introduced the TT-R250 to the off-road community one-year ago. The TT-R250 blends motocross sleekness with enduro features, highlighted by a 250cc four-stroke engine, electric start, front and rear disc brakes, tripmeter and handguards.

The TT-R features a 249cc, four-valve, air-cooled, DOHC, four-stroke engine. Throw a leg over the TT-R250, slide your thumb over to the electric start, push the button and the 250cc-powerplant fires to life.

The TT-R250 benefits from plush suspension, with 11.2"of front and rear wheel travel. Over 11" of ground clearance and a narrow overall width, allows riders to climb over rocks.

245mm front and 220mm rear disc brakes are mated to new Dunlop 739 rubber. Handguards provide protection not only during close dicing, but also while navigating narrow single tracks. An odometer, complete with resetable tripmeter, allows one to follow those marked trails systems to the tenth of a mile.

With an array of standard items, such as a headlight, taillight, and U.S.F.S. spark arrestor, the TT-R250 is tailored for the off-road enthusiast. The 2000 Yamaha TTR250 is available for a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $4,699.
