Pros: quick , light, power, reliable, it's a 4 stroke, and of course the price ($2,200)
Cons: can be hard to start after a few hours of riding
The Bottom Line: This bike is a great bike to pick if you are an intermediate rider... It's a good bike for the experienced rider also

| endezeichen's Full Review: 2000 Yamaha TT-R125 |
This is a great bike for the intermediate rider. It offers a lower seat height but still has great power for its size. It weighs only 185 pounds, so there's no extra weight for the 124cc engine to pull along. The engine displacement feels more than 124cc.
I personally think the best part about this bike is the price. You get a great 4 stroke for a great price. ($2,200)
When I began to outgrow the bike all I had to do was put on bigger tires. It raised the seat height an inch or so.
This bike is not a speed demon, but it does go a fairly quick 53mph. It has about the same speed as a Yamaha Blaster. It also gets up hills pretty good but I think the blaster would beat it in this category.
There is a track in the woods by my house that people have made over the past couple years. I ride there probably around 7 hours a week. My only complaint about this bike so far is that it can be very hard to start after an hour or 2 of riding. So if for any reason you were to stall or shut the bike off and then attempt to start it up right away it can be a real pain. Other than that the bike is problem free.
