Thanks to the legacy started by the legendary XT500, Yamaha does not bestow
the XT prefix to just any old bike. And the 2011 XT250 is not just any old
bike.
The 249cc engine is strong, responsive, and comes mounted to a
chassis with a high level or braking, handling and suspension performance.
The result is an evolution of Yamaha’s cult classic that has reached the
highest level for this category – all without compromising the rocksolid dependability
for which Yamaha XTs are famous.
Features:
Rear wheel accepts wide range of good quality tubeless tryes that are easily repaired in an emergency.

A 249cc air-cooled, SOHC, 2-valve, 4-stroke engine has a bore x stroke of 74.0 x 58.0 mm, and a compression ratio of 9.5:1.
