    2009 Yamaha TTR 230

    Selling this for a friend, the bike is currently at my house.
    Great beginner bike, which is what it was used for. Few scrapes and bruises, but very well cared for mechanically.
    Original tires, very low hours. Has Bill of Sale and original MSO, owners manual, etc

    I'll get pics up later, $1,600 and it's yours

    Get the lighting kit, and make it street legal, and get it registered in RI for me. I'll make it worth your while in tracktime!

    Email me if interested.

    LOL, its not my bike. Way to much time involved to get the RI title for it, I think it'd be easier and cheaper for you to do it ;-) I should have mentioned, this bike has good ownership history as well, my friend bought it from Arron S last winter

    Re: 2009 Yamaha TTR 230

    Changed a jet.. And the mixture screw. Not that it's a big deal, was just under the impression that it was stock.

    The bike had 2 prior owners, what they did to it, I have no idea. My friend bought this bike and did nothing to it other than change the oil+filter. It ran like every other TTR 230 I've seen...like crap when it's cold, fine when it warms up, which is why I assumed it was stock.
    If you have an issue, please PM me

    no, no worries. was just wondering if you knew more about it. I hopefully have it tuned up properly now... although the mixture screw needed to be about 2.5 turns out, instead of 1 turn like the write-up I was following. ran great this last weekend though. totally loving it.

    Other than the pilot jet change, the handle bar risers were the only other change Im aware of. Original owner did not appear to be inclined to work on it.

    Oh. And the pipe was wrapped to avoid burns in the event of a fall.

    Re: 2009 Yamaha TTR 230

    Yeah was weird only the pilot jet was changed. I changed the main to match per the article. The handle bars were changed? I thought it was stock... I know the guards are aftermarket.

    And I was wondering if that header pipe came wrapped like that. Nice touch. I'd say that saved me a little on Saturday.

    It's a great beginner bike for sure. I'm having a blast. I can already see the need for better suspension, but I'll keep giving it all it can take for a while longer. Almost time to stud the tires.

    We added a spacers to raise the bar attachment point higher. The bar is stock.
