WR250F
Yamaha WR250F for Sale at Five Star Yamaha in Hamilton Hill, WA | Specifications and Review Information
Yamaha has produced the best ever WR250F for 2025, a rider-friendly weapon that is lighter and slimmer with a lower centre of gravity. Now quicker through tight turns, confidence inspiring with high levels of grip at both ends, trademark linear power with longer and stronger power throughout the range. In a nutshell, this new quarter litre enduro racer is both the fastest and most fun WR250F yet.
The sweet handling and predictable nature of this high-performance machine really shines through when the trail gets technical and your short enduro ride looks like turning into a long mission. Because WRFs are developed and tested by Aussie riders for our local conditions and riding style.
Note that Australian WRF models are all supplied in full ADR spec to allow full road registration including indicators, mirrors and horn. A free Off-Road Kit designed for closed course competition use is supplied with each bike. The kit includes brushguards, front fender and lightweight rear light and tail section.

ALUMINIUM BILATERAL BEAM FRAME
The new bilateral beam frame has been developed with rider feedback to ensure a rigidity balance for excellent handling, turning and impact absorption. New design cylinder head mounts are specified along with new front engine mounts that are formed with two metal plates of different thickness. These parts help achieve the right chassis balance for confidence and stability on gnarly tracks.
ENGINE MAP SWITCH
The left handlebar-mounted switchgear allows the rider to quickly select between preloaded engine maps-loaded and configured in the Power Tuner App - to adjust for changing riding conditions. Map 1 provides more responsive, quicker revving engine characteristics while Map 2 provides smoother response and slower revving characteristics for when traction is limited.
FREE FLOW AIR FILTER
A new airflow management system allows clean air to enter from different positions such as the shrouds, tank and seat. A new lightweight airbox combines with a new rounded air filter for increased airflow. The new air intake system, airbox and filter reduce weight and contribute to engine performance, linear power delivery and rideability.
HIGH PERFORMANCE ENGINE
Similar to the YZ250F, the WR250F produces high levels of power across the rev range. Delivery is unique to the enduro model thanks to a new intake system and ECU settings. Other engine changes include a new camchain for reduced friction losses. The new chain is around 2mm wider to reduce surface pressure when meshing with the gears. Camchain dampers, sprockets and tensioner settings are all optimised.
INDUSTRY LEADING FRONT AND REAR SUSPENSION
New progressive travel 300mm forks are optimised for off-road performance and contribute to a lower centre of gravity. The spring rate and damping gain model-specific settings and the compression damping adjustments can now be changed by hand
BRAKING PERFORMANCE
The high performance braking system provides exceptional stopping power and control through high-spec componentry, including a rigid front caliper with larger diameter pistons, aggressive brake pad compound and a 270mm front rotor. The rear brake gets a lightweight rear caliper and hanger with a 240mm rear rotor to reduce unsprung weight.
SMARTPHONE TUNING
The free-of-charge Yamaha Power Tuner App brings the power of the GYTR® Power Tuner to an iOS®or Android®device, allowing owners to adjust air/fuel mixture and ignition timing, log race set-up information, and monitor a range of data such as maintenance and system diagnosis, engine run time, and more. The newest version of the app has been revised to be more user-friendly, with new features include an intuitive Simple Tuning slide bar for engine mapping, Traction Control tuning, lap timer, and helpful engine and suspension tuning guides.
IMPROVED ERGONOMICS
The seat is now flatter, slimmer and has a more rounded profile. The new riding position provides 10mm more legroom, while the bars are moved forward one pipe width. The new seat's height difference front to rear is reduced by 15mm. The seat's edges are rounded to increase riding position freedom - allowing better movement front to rear, easier leg extension and improved seating to standing transition. Shrouds are 50mm narrower to further help the rider move around and so improve handling.
Lighter Rear Hub
A lighter rear wheel hub is specified to save weight and the axle diameter has been increased from 22mm to 25mm for added strength. The spokes have also been changed from a two-cross arrangement to a three-cross layout. The new spokes improve feel during shock absorption and aid traction. Together with the lighter rear wheel hub, the rear end offers great handling and feedback from the surface for a supreme ride experience.
COMPACT INSTRUMENT DISPLAY
WR250F includes a multi-function display featuring a speedometer, trip information and convenient low fuel and engine warning indicators.
