Some Devon lanes are a bit tight if you stall and it requires a lecky starters to get you out and avoid a soggy push.
TTRs are very good for beginners and experiended riders.
They do, however, have a weight problem, especially when you're lying down with it on top of you or if you're picking one up from a horizontal position.
I dont get this apparent weight problem?? Mines light enough compared with my dads DRZ 400. In fact his friend swapped a DRZ for a TTR because it was lighter!! I find the TTR almost as managable as my old DT175 which is like a toy.
Good choice with the TTR mate, very good bike, well chuffed with mine. Only bought it for keeping me on the lanes while i lavish TLC and cash on the DT, but its going to be a keeper.

Whereabouts are you wobbly?
Hi Rattly Im in the Kent area.
I actually tried a DRZ and found it too heavy and lots of vibration and probably better for a blast on the road, but the TTR is much smoother and manageable, the gear box is the smoothest Iv ever used.

I am based at Barnehurst quite near to Dartford and the lane/byways/boats are very good, I dont know alot of them but occasionally go out with a TRF member who knows all the lanes and can easily keep us out all day. And today we rode from Biggin hill to Wrotham via the lanes which I will post later when I have gathered the photos.
