I had an 88 model. These are the things I remember about TT350s in our part of the world:

Changes over the years: To my knowledge, the TTs sold in Australasia did not change spec throughout their run, apart from BNG.

Outright Power: A bit more peak than any stock XR250, but the TT350 has much more low-end grunt and tractability. The 25/26mm twin barrel slide/CV hybrid carb works really well when set up properly. The six speed box has a great spread of ratios for trail riding.

Weight: In registerable form, rated at 113KG dry, putting it somewhere between current XR250s and XR400s.

Suspension: Very soft and plush. Softer than an XR so for any serious work, needs springing and damping help here.

Handling: Has slower stable steering and feels longer than an XR. THe TT is a good bike for climbing technical hillclimbs.

Reliability: An anvil is only slightly more durable than a TT. The chassis and suspension links will wear out long before the engine. No known points of weakness and maintained properly, should last almost forever.
