‘23 Yamaha TTR-230 walk around and review

[@tav36]

I had a 1982 IT 175 back in my younger days as a sophomore in high school. Man, by looking at this thing I'm wanting to "get back in it" 😂

[@Addicted2LeTube]

[@thatalaskaguy]

Thanks! Isn’t it weird how the dealerships do that? I remember getting shit back in the 80’s when I got my first brand new dirt bike, a leftover ‘85 Yamahs IT 200. It was perfect! I’d researched the bike and read all the shootouts before I got it and it worked perfect for my riding area. But I got crap at the dealer for not getting a YZ 125 and my friends gave me a hard time about not getting a YZ. Later that summer one of my friends wanted to get a dirt bike so I stupidly sold him my IT and bought a YZ 250 and then discovered how much it sucked for tight, technical terrain. Sure, riding fast open trails was fun, so was jumping but most of my area is technical terrain where speed/power/suspension has limited use. Long story short, four YZ 250’s and 37 years later I’ve finally discovered you need two dirt bikes. The practical bike you ride all the time, explore and enjoy yourself on (TTR) and the bike that goes fast, is hard to control and can be scary in certain conditions (YZ). The YZ 250 2-stroke is fun when you want to rip. If I lived in an area that was mostly sand I can see how it’d work really well. But if I could only have one dirt bike it’d be the TTR. There are plenty of things to learn how to do better for riding skills in technical terrain and the TTR really doesn’t hold a guy back. It was really cool to read your comments and I’m glad to see another rider gets it. Dirt biking as a sport would likely be more popular if dealerships would drop the attitude towards the trail bikes. The vast majority of my teenage riding buddies quit riding dirt bikes decades ago. I wonder if the stigma towards trail bikes didn’t exist if they’d have stayed with it?

[@Addicted2LeTube]

@@thatalaskaguy Right on! I actually bought my then 6 year old a TTR-50RE at the same time and we both learned to ride together, it was an awesome experience and has certainly 'lit the fire' in both of us to get him further into the sport. He has very quickly out skilled me due to a combination of fearlessness and competitiveness which I absolutely love! I had originally planned to pass the 230 onto him once he's tall enough but I can honestly say I love riding it too much for that to happen lol. The reality is he'll likely move onto a KTM 65 so that he can get more into the junior racing scene here while dad happily plods along on his 'old mans bike'. In Australia we have an insane amount of laws that restrict 'legal' trail riding to road registered bikes only in most areas (Fire trails in the State Forests included, which is bonkers). That's not to say everyone listens, but if you get caught there are pretty hefty fines involved. Getting him into casual competitions will allow him to ride at dedicated Moto X parks at least. Thankfully Australia is a big place and there are still a decent amount of quiet single trails out there if you look hard enough. We regularly load the bikes into the back of the ute (pick up truck?) and drive for 4 hours or more just to get to the spots that are suitable to ride without fear of the council rangers! Can't complain though, we pack the swags and camp while we're there. Really is the stuff memories are made of! No bears to worry about here though lol. I honestly believe that none of this would have happened had it not been for the mighty 230! There was a road legal version released here back in 2007 (TT-R230A) but alas, they have stopped making them now. Used versions command a premium due to being perfect for the Forest trails and legal to ride! Dealerships would make an absolute fortune if they could lobby to bring that model back onto the showroom floors instead of making people feel small for wanting one in the first place! Anyway, enough rambling from me, will keep an eye out for more content when you get to it mate!

[@thatalaskaguy]

@Addicted2LeTube Very nice! It’s crazy to see how quickly kids progress in their skills and abilities. We’ve got a small, home made MX track here in town and my YZ is naturally excellent for that. I’ve taken my TT-R out on it as well and it’s still fun, just a different level of speed and capability. On either bike I tend to ride on it for a few laps and then ride off somewhere else. I’m fortunate as I can ride from my house and as long as I don’t ride down the highway the cops don’t tend to hassle you. I didn’t realize that Australia was so restrictive. That’s a bummer! You guys have some great riding terrain and areas. I like watching Cross Training Enduro and the trails are much different than what I have. Really cool to see! Your kangaroos seem diabolical! I watched a CNN news story about a kangaroo drowning a guys dog. I was like “What!?” Then they showed a photo of it waist deep in water and it was ripped! They had a good joke that it looked like a deer that was just released from prison. 🤣😆😂

Most trail bikes are jetted for hot weather. If the temperature is less than 80 degrees where you live, go one size larger on the jets. That will solve your "cold blooded" problem.

[@sinisterintentions3273]

I've got a 98 TTR 250, 25 years old and still runs like it came off the showroom floor, mine has adjustable suspension on the front forks with a valve to pump them up with a pump, they're recommended to 5.7psi but I run 5psi they never bottom out, and the steering is so much more responsive makes the whole experience way better, it's 32hp top speed of 170ish kph and some of the most fun I've ever had, I love it so much, also I'm 44 and have ridden CR500s and some wicked powerful big bores but for some reason I just have more fun on one of these

[@thatalaskaguy]

I love the fact they’ve been making this bike forever. If it had any, all the bugs are worked and it’ll just run & run & run. I’m not opposed to a transition to battery powered electric dirt bikes. But I firmly believe any TTR-230 will still be running and riding around long after many of the new e-dirt bikes are rusting away in people’s yards due to prohibitively expensive battery replacement costs.

[@sinisterintentions3273]

Oh I fully agree

I have 2 2021 TTR 230s...one for me and one for my 14 year old. Both our first bikes. We couldnt be happier.

It’s a great bike! The TTR is perfect for riding around with kids and exploring but it’s capable enough to take on tough trails and is fun to ride. It’ll run forever with just oil changes and clean air filters. 😀

[@wadebarber6493]

A great review, very well done and extremely beautiful. I've enjoyed Yamahas since 1972 and own a few, one being a ttr 230 I bought new in 2011. Its an well-built little cruiser/putter that could almost be used as a poor mans' trials bike. I can't describe how much fun this bike has been these many years. ENJOY!

[@thatalaskaguy]

Thanks! I was disappointed that the wind was so noticeable in the audio, I didn’t realize that while filming. I completely agree, it’s a great bike!

[@jostafew]

I just picked up an '05, gave it a quick once-over before taking it out for the first ride. It's interesting to watch your video and see that the '23 mechanicals look identical my '05 model! Yamaha got it right, and didn't fix something that wasn't broken; seems like it was a reliable bike from day 1 and continues to be so.

[@thatalaskaguy]

I really like the lack of modern technology on this bike as it has all it needs to make for a good reliable trail bike. These TTR’s will still be running 30-40 years from now with minimal maintenance. The same won’t be said about so many fuel injected performance bikes whos electronics and fuel injection parts will,have long been discontinued and no longer available. I’d like to pick up another TTR 230 and have been checking out what available used in my area.

That's some badass country man. I'm from Mississippi so we have nothing more than trails in the woods or sand bars on the river to ride. Beautiful country where you are! I love the mountains!

[@thatalaskaguy]

Thanks! We don’t have a ton of places we can ride dirt bikes because the mountains are so steep and the brush is really thick plus lots of impassable creeks and rivers everywhere. I still really enjoy riding dirt bikes and will cut trails through the woods just to make new places to ride. Dual sport bikes make things fun as they provide access into new areas I’ve not explored yet but usually aren’t fun or big enough to justify the effort of Hal piling a dirt bike to them.

[@alturcot4793]

These bikes go well on rough trails where you need to take it easy and slow. If you are on a budget, these bikes offer good fuel economy, reliability, and an electric starter!

[@thatalaskaguy]

Totally agree! 👍 I’ve been very impressed with it as it has performed much better than I ever expected it to.

[@78FullSizeBronco]

These bikes are great. Having had both a CRF and now a TTR, I can say I much prefer the Yamaha. The Honda seat killed me on long rides, but the Yamaha is way more plush and comfortable. Like you I feel better about having a real oil filter rather than just a little screen. Mine is a 2009 bought used with low hours, still runs likes new. Think I'll put a light kit on it this summer and make it street legal. Safe a boatload of money on gas vs. driving my truck!

[@thatalaskaguy]

I really like my TTR! I was daydreaming about riding motorcycles again today. 😃

[@comebackseason11]

Just sold my ‘05 CRF230 and getting into a ‘23 TT-R 230. Pretty excited!

[@thatalaskaguy]

I think you’ll really like the TTR. No overheating at slow speed, no radiators to damage, no tedious and expensive valve adjustments requiring new shims, lower seat height and super easy maintenance. The CRF will have much better suspension and the power will be better for wider open terrain but the TTR excels in tight, technical, wooded terrain.

[@Barefoot-Bob]

i am going from a CR450f and a long spell of off 2 wheels and looking at this bike.

[@thatalaskaguy]

@@Barefoot-Bob I’ve never ridden a 450 MX bike so I can’t provide a direct comparison. But, one KZbin video that really stuck out to me featured a trail ride with Shane Watts and he owned a TTR-230. He preferred to ride it due to the low maintenance requirements and that he could spend the majority of his time riding. He was leading the group he was with and they were all riding higher performance bikes. The TTR wasn’t holding him back. I find the TTR to be a far more fun bike to ride on trails and exploring than what the common perception it’s given.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Probably a logical step up in this category would be the KLX230. Fuel injection, headlight, a few niceties without getting into liquid cooling and boat loads of expensive maintenance or reliability concerns. It's also less expensive. One thing of note, you can tight off a cable (or high tensile wire) between your brake lever and chassis, shift lever and chassis to avoid getting a stick or debris wedged in there while running trail. Cheap and easy.

[@thatalaskaguy]

The KLX230R $5400 in the USA and the TTR230 is $5015. The KLX has a taller seat height and fuel injection. Fuel injection is great until you have a problem and it doesn’t want to start or starts running poorly. Fixing that yourself on the side of the trail or at home is very difficult to impossible. Carbs are much easier to maintain at home. The KLX is a nice bike but didn’t fit the needs I wanted and outlined in the video. I remember seeing the cable tip in the magazines back in the 80’s. 👍

[@exothermal.sprocket]

@@thatalaskaguy Problems with fuel injection over the years of my motorcycle ownership: 0. Potential problems with carburetors: half a dozen per season. That pretty much solves that issue for me.

[@thatalaskaguy]

@exothermal.sprocket from what I’ve read over the years, ethanol gas causes many people problems with carbs becuase they don’t drain the carb before storing it. There are dozens and dozens of non running fuel injected snowmobiles in my town. Why? Because people can’t fix them when they break as our closest dealers are 250 miles away. What you do see with older sleds still running around are the simple carbureted models. EFI is great for people, who don’t keep their machines for any length of time. These are not automobiles where the components are only driven on streets, hidden from the elements by the hood and body and built and manufactured to a much higher standard of reliability.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

@@thatalaskaguy I would argue the EFI in sleds is more complex, especially with the forced induction systems (Ski-doo, Yamaha), oil injection for 2-strokes, the vast changes in barometric pressure and temperature extremes a sled will experience. An enduro or trail bike is rather simple by comparison. Doesn't need a bunch of sensors and fast bus system and a million miles of algorithm. Most motorcycles operate on open loop systems, very few have closed loop, or the sort of more advanced systems of autos. For instance, they will need a significant remap of the ECU for high altitudes because there's very little mapping adjustment on the fly (only enough to take up for cold starts). Yes, fuel is crap ever since the government starting paying ethanol plants and farmers to over-produce and poison millions of acres. I normally run alcohol-free fuel in my motorcycle even though I don't have to. For winter storage I fill the tank to the very top with pure petrol, make sure some good preservatives are in the fuel all the way to the injectors. Never have trouble in the following year. Fires right up.

[@thatalaskaguy]

@@exothermal.sprocket You make many good points. I didn’t realize that dirt bike EFI and snowmobile EFI was any different. I’m still very content is simple basic carbs. 20 years from now my carb’d toys will still be running. Whether replacement parts are still available for EFI systems on bikes 20 years into the future is uncertain.

[@KaboshkiWulf]

I got a 22 ttr somewhere in February as a first bike, so far it's treated me so damn well. Though it be a horse.

Hell ya man. Got a chuckle out of your into as that is bang on the stigma. I’ve had mx bikes since the mid 90’s and would love a bike with a low soft seat and a kickstand at this point. Cheers

[@thatalaskaguy]

Right on, thanks! Even though I bought it with a certain use in mind, I’ve been caught off guard by how capable and enjoyable it is to ride. I’m sure a lot of it has to do with my rocky and forested terrain and riding conditions but it’s a really good bike and so far has not held me back from getting to places. It climbed a huge hill that I wouldn’t have thought it could do and the soft suspension is actually a lot more practical for everywhere except the small MX track we have, big jumps of course, and riding it at high speeds through the whoops and rough sections of the ditches. Even in the ditch it is still fun as you have to ride it differently and focus on being smooth and use the terrain to your advantage. It’s certainly not a YZ but it’s a lot easier and more enjoyable to ride in a wider range of conditions than the YZ.

[@mikecostello9671]

I feel you man, out of all the bikes I had at the time. I always ended up on the TTR230, just fuel up n go. Once you get it geared right and install the jetting kit they have available the bike really comes to life. Oh and best part throw a 110 rear tire on there! Kick ass little bike. One day YZ forks! Nice video jealous of the nice views wow!

[@thatalaskaguy]

@@mikecostello9671 Thanks! It’s been a great bike so far. It caused me to think about how misguided the dirt bike industry is being so focused on racing and MX. Their marketing is always more and more performance which then comes at higher cost and increased maintenance for buyers. Plus the bikes are too tall for a large segment of the population. It’s no wonder why they are in decline. Back when dirt biking first took off, the bikes were focused on trail riding off road and far more people could straddle the bikes and touch the ground easily. So far this TTR has gone everywhere and climbed everything I’ve needed it to.

Good bikes, had both a Honda and now one of these, can't go wrong! I totally agree on the seat, that Honda seat had a bunch of little nubs on it and would just eat holes in my jeans and give horrendous keester rash! I can actually ride the Yamaha all day in comfort without feeling like I've been sitting on a bongo board all day long. Nice being able to change the filter element too, hated that about the Honda just that dinky little window screen thing. Yamaha seems to be more the Cadillac of dirt scooters and Honda the entry level Chevy sedan. Much plusher suspension, quieter engines, etc. I love both, but as I get older, start appreciating the ol' blue machines much more! Grew up on big nasty 2 strokes everything from 85's to 500's, don't miss the noise or vibration at all. Had a Kawi 250F for a short while too and the maintenance on that thing was just a nightmare, fun to ride, but often spent more time working on the damn thing than riding it. Keeping it cool on tight singletrack trails was a nightmare as well. Yammy just start, gas and go. No worries for the whole day and enjoy the ride and scenery! That's all I desire these days. Big power and wheelies are behind me now.

[@thatalaskaguy]

I agree! I’m really glad I bought mine. I prefer the ride and feel of the TTR over the CRF. I rode my YZ the weekend before last and definitely noticed the vibration a lot more than I used to. Part of me wants to time myself riding both bikes a couple laps on our small, local motocross track just to see what the difference is. I don’t think I’m significantly faster on my YZ as I’m not very good riding on a track. This is kind of giving me some ideas for a video. 🤔

@@JP-fo8ld my youngest is also 13. She can touch with the balls of her feet on the 125 but the 230 would be too tall. Depending on the size and inseam of the rider, the 125 can get outgrown but the 230 will fit adults. It’s not like a larger teen or smaller adult can’t ride the 125, they just may feel a bit cramped and the suspension will be soft. But, the 125 is lighter weight and a bike that fits the rider will build skills and confidence way, way faster. I learned on bikes that were too tall for me and it sucked. I always feel way more confident on a bike with a lower seat height even though I’ve been riding motorcycles for 38 years now.

[@thatalaskaguy]

It depends a lot on what conditions you ride in and how good your buddies are. If you guys are riding in the wide open desert, sand dunes or MX tracks the 230 won’t be the best choice as they’ll likely leave you behind all the time unless they aren’t good riders. But if you ride mostly trails and woods, tight muddy or rocky terrain you’ll likely leave them behind or at least have no trouble keeping up and have more fun while riding. The TTR will be worlds more reliable than their bikes, be way easier and far cheaper to maintain and will run forever with regular oil changes and air filter cleanings. For a first bike the TTR is excellent. Are your buddies good, experienced riders or are they learning too? Are they riding old, used, roached out 250 & 450 bikes?

[@numerokix1849]

[@thatalaskaguy]

@@numerokix1849 Are you in the Midwest or farm type country? Are the trails tight and through sections of woods? An MX bike sounds totally overkill for that type of riding. The TTR won’t be able to accelerate as fast as those bikes in the open fields but with its 6th gear it’ll have top speed, just take longer to get there. You’ll learn how to become a good rider much faster on the 230 compared to their bikes. I’m trying to envision your riding area if mainly what they are doing is riding as fast as they can through one field to another which are linked together with grassy one lane, tractor width trails though the woods? A rule of thumb I’ve always had is rides generally go better when you are on the same size, type of machines your friends have as you are then close to equal. I remember in high school getting a Honda XR250R which I loved but it wasn’t as much fun to ride when going with my buddies who had 2-stroke bikes. I ended up getting rid of it (still regret that to this day) as I convinced myself I needed a bike like theirs.

@@thatalaskaguy yea I’m in farm type country some trails are wide like logging roads and some are very narrow. Usually riding around fields one to another hitting jumps and stuff sometimes going to the tracks

[@thatalaskaguy]

@numerokix1849 The TTR is an excellent first bike and would do fine in your riding terrain. My concern is that once you get good at riding you will find its limitations and may end up regretting your purchase if you and your buddies mostly ride at tracks, on soft, wide open fields and jumping. They probably like trying to do high speed wheelies and riding around as fast as they can go in the fields and the TTR isn’t great at those things. A YZ250X is awesome for those things and the soft ground soaks up the power and you can pop the front wheel off the ground pretty much whenever you want and jump as high as you dare to go. Problem is it would suck for a first dirt bike but makes for a great (but scary) 2nd dirt bike after you’ve learned how to ride. It doesn’t require the expensive maintenance as your buddies 4-stroke MX bikes but will require more maintenance than the gas and go TTR. If you mostly rode woods, tight narrow trails and technical terrain the TTR would be ideal. The ideal scenario is getting a used TTR, learning how to ride it, sell it for what you paid for it and then buy a YZ250X. Unfortunately that plan has a lot of moving pieces. Whatever you do, don’t buy a used 4-stroke MX bike unless you know it’s history and a kid or some clown didn’t own it as they like to blow up when not maintained properly.
