The YZ250X is optimized for the unique demands of cross country and enduro racing. The YPVS-equipped 249 cc two-stroke engine is combined with a wide-ratio five-speed transmission for the ultimate cross country powerplant.

PERFORMANCE

The YZ250X offers serious two-stroke power in a super lightweight package. Yamaha modified the engine and changed the gear ratios in the 5-speed transmission to better suit cross country racing. The result is a good depth of power with an easy-to-use engine character.

THE EXTRAS
Cross-country-focused chassis features include softer suspension settings front and rear, an 18-inch rear wheel for more puncture resistance, an aluminum side stand and a fuel petcock that offers a reserve position for peace of mind (vs. YZ250).

- optimal hook-up for outstanding acceleration & corner-exiting power
- transmission features "involute splines" for smooth, positive shifting even under power
- wider 3rd, 4th & 5th gears ratios (Vs. YZ250) ... see spec sheet
Heavy-duty, multi-plate clutch.
- Clutch spring load is reduced for easier clutch lever pull Vs. YZ250 (less fatigue)

- for on-the-fly clutch adjustments

CHASSIS/SUSPENSION

Lightweight, aluminum, semi-double-cradle frame.
- combines with compact engine to provide an awesome power to weight ratio
- obvious benefit of an aluminum frame is a significant weight reduction
- Yamaha maintains the semi-double cradle design because it offers an excellent "rigidity balance" between lateral & torsional rigidity while offering controlled flex in the longitudinal plane
- result is a light aluminum frame, which provides excellent handling, good ride quality, excellent stability & responsive cornering performance
Removable rear subframe.
- constructed of square-section, lightweight aluminum
- detachable design allows easy access when servicing rear suspension components
- reduces costs in the event of a loop out
Lightweight, tapered design aluminum swingarm.
- produced by "hydro forming", a forming method that uses high pressure water to form shapes
- excellent rear wheel traction & control
- lightweight design
Cast aluminum upper and forged lower triple clamps.
- strong yet lightweight
- fast, agile handling
Adjustable handlebar mounts.
- allow handlebar to be moved 10mm rearward if desired
"Speed Sensitive System" 48mm, adjustable, inverted, "twin chamber" KYB fork. Front wheel travel is 300 mm (11.8").
- twin chamber design means the damper unit is in a separate structure which prevents aerated fork oil from entering the inner damper assembly & degrading its damping abilities
- the inner damper is pressurized, it also eliminates bubbles forming in the oil
- "Speed Sensitive" design means the damping force is controlled by piston speed, not position in the fork
- low friction fork seals provide reduced stiction for a smoother stroke
- spring & damping settings are optimized for cross country use
- fork adjustments include: 20-way compression damping & 20-way rebound damping
- optional fork springs are available through Genuine Yamaha parts
Fork also features a Transfer Control Valve (TCV).
- TCV enhances damping from mid to full stroke & improves bottoming characteristics
- TCV offers more precise control throughout the full suspension stroke
- TCV is located on the upside of the spring & its function is controlled by piston speed, not piston position, hence the term "Speed Sensitive System fork".
Large "wrap-around" plastic fork protectors.
- provide excellent protection from dirt, mud & stone chips
- "self-supporting" design reduces friction for smoother stroke
Monocross link rear suspension features a fully adjustable, Kayaba, piggyback shock which provides 315 mm (12.4") of wheel travel.
- features separate adjusters for high- and low-speed compression damping
- adjustments include: spring preload, 20-way rebound damping, 20-way low-speed compression damping & 2 turns of high speed compression damping
- spring & damping settings are optimized for cross country use
- 18 mm damper rod
- Kashima coating (friction reducer) is used in the shock body & sub tank to reduce friction & improve suspension performance
- piggyback shock utilizes a full rebound oil lock system for excellent suspension function & great ride quality
- spring & damping settings are optimized for cross country use
270 mm floating front "wave-style" disc brake with Nissin twin piston caliper.
- "wave" style rotor (disc) reduces weight, improves cooling (more surface area) & improves styling
- braking performance is excellent with great feel & control
"Shorty" front brake lever is adjustable for various hand sizes.
245 mm rear "wave-style" disc brake with single piston caliper.
- integrated master cylinder (fluid reservoir is integrated into the top of the master cylinder)
