Dual purpose XT660R. July 08

Yamaha's versatile XT660R is bound to impress owners with its ability as a dirt road blaster, tourer or urban warrior.

The off road version of Yamaha's XT660X supermotard comes with a big 21-in front wheel plus all the performance of its road going cousin and boasts a similarly long 24 month warranty.

With a punchy 660cc motor and comfortable riding position, Yamaha's XTR is the perfect tool for Australia's many dirt roads.

An instant surge of smooth and strong power is provided by its fuel injected four-stroke, four-valve single cylinder engine.

And a trick diamond frame, beefy 43mm Paioli forks and large 21-in front wheel combine to provide confidence inspiring handling both on and off road. Taking the best from both dirt and road bikes, the XT660R also features refinements such as electric starting, an immobiliser, trick LCD instrumentation and twin high rise pipes with three way catalytic converters to meet strict emission laws.

Priced at just $10,999, the XTR is available in Yamaha Blue or Black colours.
