At the heart of the 2005 Husqvarna WR 250 enduro - offroad motorcycle, Husqvarna utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 66.4 x 72.0 mm (2.6 x 2.8 inches) with a 12.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the WR 250 measures 108.3 kg (239 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 965 mm (38 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,465 mm (57.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 10.2-liter (2.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
