Engineered by Yamaha for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2024 Yamaha WR250F pairs a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. 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 955 mm (37.6 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 8.14-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
