Overview
The Yamaha TT R230 is an enduro bike produced from 2016 to 2017. For 2017, its air-cooled 223.0 cm³ single-cylinder four-stroke makes 20 hp (15 kW) and 18.6 Nm of torque at 6,000 RPM; wet weight is 114 kg.
Its 871 mm seat height puts the rider high above the ground, while 295 mm of clearance and 240 mm of front and 221 mm of rear wheel travel suit rough terrain. The adjustable rear suspension lets you tune its response, and electric starting makes firing up straightforward; the 8-liter fuel tank limits how much fuel it can carry between stops.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Low wet weight
At 114 kg wet, it is relatively easy to maneuver when picking through tight or slow terrain.
Off-road clearance and travel
The 295 mm ground clearance and long-travel suspension help it handle uneven ground without easily bottoming out.
Electric starting
The electric starter avoids the effort of kick-starting when setting off or restarting on the trail.
Things to consider
Tall seat
An 871 mm seat can make it difficult for shorter riders to put a foot down securely at a stop.
Limited fuel capacity
The 8-liter tank means more frequent fuel stops than a larger tank would require.
Rear drum brake
The 130 mm rear drum offers less braking power and heat capacity than a disc during repeated hard stops.
