2015 Yamaha TT-R125LE www.Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits

/// Engine
• Potent, air-cooled, 124cc, SOHC, 2 valve, 4-stroke powerplant produces broad, torquey power tuned for maximum, novice-friendly off-road performance… perfect for a wide range of trail conditions.
• Convenient push-button electric starting backed up by a manual kick starter too.
• Lightweight crankshaft provides fast engine response
• Silent design cam chain and automatic cam chain tensioner means minimal maintenance, longer engine life and reduced mechanical noise.
• Engine counter balancer reduces vibration for maximum rider comfort.
• Mikuni VM20 carburetor ensures crisp, dependable throttle response and great fuel economy. “Electroless” nickel plated valve seat and nickel silver needle valve assembly, counter act the negative effects of E10 (10% ethanol) fuels.
• Smooth-shifting, 5-speed transmission with heavy-duty manual clutch is geared for maximum versatility and usable power delivery.
• CDI ignition system is ultra-reliable, guaranteeing fast starts and never needs maintenance.
• Easy-access, tool-free, washable foam air filter adds extra convenience and reduced tune-up costs.
• Lightweight, upswept exhaust system provides quiet operation, a screen type spark arrestor to protect Mother Nature and a stylish end cap. Heat shields protect rider from hot components.
• Rugged, plastic engine skid plate helps to protect against rocks and logs.

/// Chassis/Suspension
• Rigid, diamond-type, steel frame features a 1,270mm (50″) wheelbase providing quick, agile, off-road handling.
• Lightweight, aluminum, box-section swingarm features easy-to-use, eccentric-type chain adjuster.
• 4-position, preload adjustable, 31mm Showa front fork provides 180mm (7.1″) of wheel travel. This fork features slightly stiffer settings than the TT-R125L to deliver more aggressive off-road performance and handling. Preload adjustability allows the rider to adjust the fork to match rider weight.
• Fork boots (covers) protect tubes and seals from damage.
• Monocross link, single-shock rear suspension offers 168mm (6.6″) of wheel travel. Shock is a remote reservoir design to maintain consistent damping performance. Adjustments include: spring preload, 20-way rebound damping and 12-way compression damping.
• Front 220mm disc with twin piston caliper delivers strong, confidence-inspiring stopping power.
• Rear drum brake with easy-to-use, wing nut adjuster
• 805mm (31.7″) seat height and 295mm (11.6″) of ground clearance creates a nimble, sharp-steering package capable of tackling the most rugged terrain.
• 6 litre black plastic fuel tank is designed to allow easy rider movements. This tank features a special “fluorination surface treatment” which reduces fuel permeation for improved environmental protection.
• Mid size 19″ front and 16″ rear wheels inspire greater rider confidence
• Knobby tires offer superb grip in the dirt.

/// Features
• YZ-F inspired body work … just like the parts found on our competition YZ series! We have even added YZ style rad shrouds. This “slim design” bodywork allows for fast, easy rider movements.
• Flat YZ-style seat features a “gripper” cover like the bigger YZs for great control. The flat design allows easy rider movements.
• Large, folding, serrated foot pegs provide excellent footing even in wet or muddy conditions.
• Motocross style handlebar utilizes a crossbar for added strength.
• Convenient handlebar-mounted choke knob
• Handlebar-mounted, key-operated ignition switch prevents unwanted joy rides.
• Low-maintenance, sealed battery
• Folding foot pegs, shift lever and brake pedal tip resist damage in the event of a tip-over.
• Convenient lift holes in side cover makes lifting the bike easier.
• Brake and clutch lever covers / boots help reduce dirt and mud build-up.
• E10 compatible fuel system components

IMPORTANT NOTE: Adult supervision and proper protective riding gear, including a helmet, are a must when a youngster is operating a TT-R125LE.
