La Yamaha XT660R se presentó en 2004 como una moderna sucesora deportiva dual de la legendaria línea XT600, que combina la capacidad de carretera y todoterreno en un paquete refinado. Presentaba un nuevo motor monocilíndrico de 660 cc con inyección de combustible y un chasis actualizado, dirigido a los pilotos de aventura y de enduro que buscaban un todoterreno versátil. El modelo se mantuvo prácticamente inalterado durante su producción hasta que se suspendió alrededor de 2016, y fue apreciado por su confiabilidad, simplicidad y bajos costos de mantenimiento.

Lo que los compradores deben saber
Bulletproof Single Engine
The 660cc single-cylinder engine is renowned for its reliability, often exceeding 100,000km with basic maintenance. It shares DNA with Yamaha's proven XT/TT lineage, making parts widely available and affordable.
Watch the Valve Clearances
The most common issue buyers encounter is neglected valve clearance checks, which Yamaha recommends every 10,000km. Skipped services can lead to hard starting and reduced power, so always request a full service history.
Strong Resale Value
The XT660R holds its value exceptionally well due to its dual-sport versatility and low running costs, making it a popular choice in the used market. A well-maintained example rarely sits unsold for long.

"Un golpe honesto e inquebrantable que recompensa a los ciclistas pacientes y experimentados."
La XT660R es el equivalente en moto de una Land Cruiser: poco glamurosa, ligeramente agrícola y casi imposible de matar. Esta potente moto de 660 cc se mueve con fuerza a bajas revoluciones, y su rango de par entre 3000 y 5500 rpm hace que sea realmente relajante en carreteras largas y de tierra, aunque se queda sin ideas a más de 130 km/h en asfalto y hace que te hagan vibrar las manos si la presionas durante mucho tiempo. La altura del asiento de 895 mm suena intimidante, pero la cintura delgada ayuda a los ciclistas más bajos a manejarla, y la suspensión de origen WP se adapta a las pistas difíciles sin quejarse, aunque tiene una configuración lo suficientemente suave como para que las curvas rápidas en asfalto parezcan vagas y revolcadas. Mi mayor problema después de 18 meses y 22 000 km fue el calor: ese gran sencillo te hornea la pierna derecha en el tráfico, el consumo de combustible ronda los 5,5 l/100 km si vas a toda prisa y el asiento de serie se convierte en una tabla después de dos horas, independientemente de lo duro que pienses que eres.

Reseña de un comprador usado
"A genuinely tough, unfussy adventure bike that earns its keep daily."
$3,500-$6,500 usedThe XT660R is one of those bikes that rewards patience over pace. Yamaha built this thing to last, and most examples you'll find with 30,000 miles still run clean if the previous owner wasn't a complete muppet. The single-cylinder thumper pulls strongly from low revs, makes highway miles genuinely manageable, and the upright seating position means you'll arrive fresher than most sportsbike riders. It's not fast, but it's honest. What to watch on used examples: the rear subframe cracks around the grab rail mounts — shine a torch in there before you hand over cash. Forks can feel vague if the seals haven't been touched in years, and rear shock is just adequate from new, so budget for an aftermarket unit if you're doing any real off-road work. Fuel injection on later models is a genuine improvement over the carbed early bikes. Avoid anything that looks like it's lived a hard trail life without corresponding maintenance receipts.
