Technical Overview

2025 Yamaha Vstar 250 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Yamaha's motorcycle platform, the 2025 Yamaha Vstar 250 relies on a 249 cc engine powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 49.0mm x 66.0mm with a 10.0:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the Vstar 250 measures 324 kg (714 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 27 mm (1.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 58 mm (2.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 2.5-liter (0.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
