Positioned in Yamaha's enduro - offroad motorcycle lineup, the 2010 Yamaha WR250F relies on a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 77.0 x 53.6 mm (3.0 x 2.1 inches) with a 12.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the WR250F measures 117.9 kg (260 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 980 mm (38.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,481 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 7.94-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
