The YZ250FX, based on Yamaha’s YZ250F motocrosser, features suspension and engine tuning suited for cross country racing. The WR250F, also derived from the YZ250F, is tailored for enduro riding with unique engine and suspension tuning.

2025 Yamaha YZ250FX

Yamaha has announced a series of updates for the 2025 YZ250FX, aimed at improving performance and capability. The model features a redesigned aluminum bilateral beam frame, based on the YZ250F, which provides an optimal balance of stability and cornering performance. This frame includes model-specific engine mounts and a lightweight subframe, contributing to improved handling and increased front wheel traction.

The 2025 YZ250FX also includes a fully adjustable KYB suspension that is 10mm shorter and features updated settings. This results in a lower center of gravity, enhancing maneuverability in tight terrain and making it easier for the rider to reach the ground. Additionally, the front fork now has a hand-adjustable knob for compression adjustments without the need for tools.

Ergonomic improvements include a slimmer, flatter, and more compact body, providing a more generous rider triangle and facilitating effortless body movement. The intake system has been redesigned, and ECU settings have been optimized for better control at low speeds and increased power at higher speeds.

The new model also features the latest version of Yamaha’s Power Tuner App, which now includes a quick-adjust slide bar for engine tuning and new four-level Traction Control. The app remains free of charge.

The 2025 updates are based on the YZ250F motocrosser and include a new bilateral beam frame with precisely tuned flex characteristics and unique engine mounts.

The fully adjustable KYB fork with speed-sensitive damping now features a hand-adjustable knob for easy compression adjustments. The linkage-type rear suspension includes a KYB shock with settings optimized for improved stability.

Ergonomic updates include a flatter, slimmer seat with a more rounded profile, narrower radiator shrouds, and a slimmer fuel tank. These changes provide more legroom between the seat and pegs and move the handlebars forward. The new riding position is designed to allow for better movement, easier leg extension, and improved transitions between seating and standing.

The 2025 WR250F uses a front-intake, rear-exhaust, liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine, similar to the YZ250F, but tuned for enduro conditions with an added wide-ratio six-speed transmission. A new intake design draws air from under the side covers and seat, allowing for a more compact body and boosting mid- to high-rpm engine performance. The model also includes new four-level Traction Control tuning, a lap timer, and tuning guides available through Yamaha’s next-generation Power Tuner App.
