Key Features:
- Our legendary two-stroke Supercross winner is more potent than ever.
- Winner of "Cycle World", "Racer X" and "Motocross Action" shootouts.
- A light, aluminum frame housing a patented YPVS™ power-valve-equipped ripper of an engine results in an awesome power-to-weight ratio.
- Ready to race out of the crate, complete with new ProTaper aluminum handlebar, titanium footpegs, gripper seat and Excel rims
New for 2007:
-
Modifying thickness of both inner and outer fork tubes and revising damping settings provides fantastic bump absorption and comfort while shaving weight.
- Lightening the rear shock with aluminum components takes off more weight, and revised settings complement the ones in the fork.
- A light and strong ProTaper aluminum handlebar in adjustable mounts adds comfort and control.
- A new jet needle in the 38mm Keihin PWK carburetor boosts bottom-end and mid-range response.
- Use of lighter, box-head bolts throughout the chassis eases maintenance while reducing weight and increasing performance.
Engine:
- 249cc liquid-cooled, reed valve-inducted two-stroke engine is lightweight, compact and features an incredibly wide, hard-hitting powerband.
- Patented YPVS power valve system combines crisp, hard-hitting bottom-end acceleration with strong midrange and eye-opening top-end.
- Special-design carbon fiber reed-valve pedals improve throttle response and engine performance across the entire rpm range.
- Smooth-shifting, five-speed, close-ratio transmission with heavy-duty, multiplate clutch.
- Primary kickstarter ensures smooth, easy starting action and reduced weight.
- Large-capacity radiator features a ten-row core with four louvers for maximum cooling efficiency.
- 38mm Keihin PWK carburetor with power jet and throttle position sensor (TPS) ensure precise fuel/air mixing and extra-crisp throttle response throughout the powerband.
- Digital CDI ignition system delivers precise spark for faster, stronger response anywhere in the powerband.
- Trick, works-style clutch lever features race-spec barrel adjuster for on-the-fly adjustability.
Chassis/Suspension:
- A carefully engineered, advanced aluminum frame and swingarm give the YZ250 the best handling in the 250 class.
- Speed-Sensitive System 48mm Kayaba fork tubes move the transfer control valves (TCV) above the fork springs, so that damping force is controlled by piston speed instead of position. Along with a bigger base valve hole, the result is a smooth ride and super-precise handling.
- Removable aluminum rear subframe constructed of square-section tubing for reduced weight.
- Rear, fully adjustable Kayaba shock features a super-light titanium shock spring and reduced-friction Kashima coating of internals. 12.4 inches of travel, separate adjusters for high- and low-speed compression damping, and a full lock oil rebound system for increased comfort all add up to fantastic rear wheel control and a sweet ride.
- Lightweight front and rear calipers with aluminum pistons and anti-bubble front master cylinder, 250mm fully floating front and 245mm rear discs, deliver strong stopping power with progressive feel.
- Lightweight 21-inch front and 19-inch rear Excel rims provide exceptional durability and help reduce unsprung weight for optimal suspension performance and handling.
- Tapered rear wheel spacers ease sliding the rear wheel into place, for quicker tire changes.
- Premium Dunlop knobbies offer race-spec traction and wear.
