Built around Yamaha's enduro - offroad motorcycle platform, the 2020 Yamaha WR250F utilizes a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 77.0 x 53.6 mm (3.0 x 2.1 inches) with a 13.8:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the WR250F measures 115.2 kg (254 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 1,481 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 8.33-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
