Why cant i turn my yamaha ttr 225 when its off?

SOURCE: How much oil will a 2001 Yamaha TTR 225 hold?

it should say next to the oil filler cap

SOURCE: Hard starting of a yamaha ttr 225 after sitting

I had a similar problem with my TTR 125. I removed the carb, removed the float bowl and gave a a careful clean. I also removed the choke plunger mechanism and gave that a few shots of penetrating lube oil. The choke mechanism works much smoother as a result.
Just those two simple things and my bike fired up right away.

take your ignition to a good lock smith and he should be able to cut you another if he is any good

Carba/f ratio needs adjusting and use of the choke will help keep the idle circuits clean.
