[QUOTE="tnrider, post: 711664, member: 43074"] I (re)started riding on a Yamaha XT225 about 18-months ago. It is a road-legal dualsport bike. It is a great fire road bike (and for trips for icecream). I have even done (small) jumps on the XT but do not really recommend it as it will bottom out easily. The reason I mention it is that my wife rides a TTR125LE and they both have the same seat height - however the TTR is much less weight (check yamaha site for comparison). Note that the TTR is not street legal out of the box - you will have to do mods and then try to get it to pass in your state. I am about 6' and weigh about 180-lbs - way over limit for TTR but ok on XT. My wife is about 5'8" and weighs about 140 and will not ride the XT - but loves the TTR (with the E button) - her first bike! I would characterize them as: the XT is good transportation and can ride on trails -- the TTR is a hoot to ride in the woods but would be greatly underpowered on the road. [/QUOTE]
