Ready to continue a legacy of dominance in the 250 class, the new generation of YZ250F is making its iconic comeback in the YZ heritage with a lighter frame, sharper handling, compact body, and improved smartphone tuneability.

Features may include:

• IMPROVED SUSPENSION

An improved rear suspension linkage and updated shock settings enhance stability and traction feel for all riding situations. To match the rear linkage revision, front suspension settings have also been updated including incorporating delta-shaped piston shims providing calmer front-end behavior and increased rider comfort.

• ADVANCED ALUMINUM BILATREAL BEAM FRAME

An advanced aluminum bilateral beam frame based on the flagship YZ450F provides just the right amount of strength and flex for the perfect balance of stability and cornering performance. The result is a better handling machine with lightweight feel and increased front wheel traction, allowing the rider to enter corners with greater confidence and more line choices.

• OPTIMIZED AIR INTAKE

The optimized intake path draws air from under the side covers and seat allowing for a lighter, slimmer and more compact body. The design also allows radiator shrouds to be slimmer and the airbox cover to be lower and more narrow. The more efficient intake path also boosts mid- to high-rpm engine performance.

• Slimmer, flatter body design for improved control, including a more narrow fuel tank, lower airbox and more narrow radiator shroud

• Front fork now includes hand-adjustable knob for toolless compression adjustment

• A Traction Control System communicates wheel slip to the ECU, tuning the engine to maintain ideal rear wheel traction
