2020 Yamaha YZ250F

Powerful and reliable with push-button electric start and the smartphone power tuner app make this the moto weapon of choice.

Features may include:

• Innovative and Upgraded Engine

The liquid-cooled, DOHC 4-valve, fuel-injected engine features a forward-positioned straight downdraft intake with symmetrical intake and exhaust ports. A high-compression piston works with intake and exhaust cam timing to deliver outstanding engine character with a focus on top-end power delivery.

• Exclusive Power Tuner App

Breaking new ground in the industry – again – Yamaha created the Power Tuner app, which brings the power of the GYTR Power Tuner to your iOS® or Android® device. Using wireless connectivity to talk to the bike’s onboard CAN-bus network, the app allows owners to adjust air/fuel mixture and ignition timing maps to tune engine performance for track conditions, record race log information, and monitor a range of data such as maintenance and system diagnosis, engine run time, and more.

• Electric Starter System

The YZ250F features a compact electric starter system to minimize restart delays on track and add convenience everywhere else. Powered by a high-capacity and ultra-lightweight, four-cell lithium-ion battery, the system adds minimal weight.

• Advanced Aluminum Frame

The YZ250F’s compact frame refines the instinctive handling that makes this Yamaha one of the best handling machines in the class. Large upper frame bracing improves rigidity and durability, while wider rear frame spars and YZ250F-specific engine mounts centralize mass for the best possible balance of bump absorption, stiffness and feeling of grip.

• Compact Body and Seat Design

The YZ250F utilizes compact bodywork from tip to tail, including a narrow fuel tank specifically designed for motocross demands. In addition to shaving weight, the body design provides more comfortable knee grip and control feel, with a seat shaped to give the rider additional room to move aboard the machine.

• Enhanced Mass-Centralization

The engine, aluminum muffler and compact fuel tank are positioned close to the machine's center of mass. This layout contributes to centralized mass for a lightweight handling feeling on the track. The wide 55mm footpegs help lower the rider's center of gravity for enhanced machine balance, control and rider comfort.

• Adjustable Handlebar Mounts

The 4-position adjustable handlebar mounts are rubber mounted to improve comfort and reduce handlebar vibration, while the alloy handlebar centralize overall mass.

• Embedded Graphics

Yamaha’s unique embedded graphics are built into the bodywork for extended durability, resisting both peeling and damage.

• Race Winning Details

The YZ250F includes top-spec details, including 1-1/8” aluminum tapered handlebars, wide 55mm footpegs, a quick-adjust clutch perch, stylish blue rims and gold chain.
