Engineered by Yamaha for the allround motorcycle segment, the 2007 Yamaha YBR 250 utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 20.7 HP (15.1 kW) while maximum torque reaches 20.5 Nm (15.1 lb-ft) at 2,100 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive. With a specific output of 83.1 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the YBR 250 measures 138 kg (304 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.15 HP/kg (6.67 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,360 mm (53.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 19.2-liter (5.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
