End of an era

**Laromonster** · #1 3 Oct 2004

Looks like its the end of the road for yammies big air cooled 600.
i browsed over to yamahas website and saw the TT600 is not being offered for '05.
so we are left with the WR 450f for dual sport use in the big thumper class.

Thats really sad

Killed off by Euro emmission laws and fashion. There is hardly such a thing as a simple strong basic bike like the old XTs and TTs anymore. Progress?

The TT600RE is still being offered by Yamaha in the UK.

Does that mean the new laws don't apply here?

Can anyone clarify the situation with the new laws?

Or has the TT600RE been jetted etc. so it's compliant? I don't want to buy a new bike, rejet it and find it then won't pass it's emissions test.

Cheers,

Ian.

Just to let you know that they still build the XT600 with the 3aj motor in Brasil,and some dealers will ship to the UK, they are fairly cheap as well.

The XT600 was discontinued here in 2005...

Today we have only the XT660R, and it's made in Brazil...

and don't have the "X" option... :-(

Our XT600E models was almost the same as the european ones... just 1 or 2 years late... :-)

a big hug from Brazil
