Thank you.

The XT225 has a larger engine than the XL185, and a beautiful, wide-ratio, 6-speed transmission. I can comfortably cruise at 50-60 mph for hours on the XT225. With a low saddle height and a dry weight of only 238 pounds, the XT225 handles nimbly on steep, rocky and loose terrain; it is a joy to ride.
