NEW FOR 2022
- High-Tech Quarter-Liter Enduro Racer
The new 2022 WR250F™ builds on Yamaha’s exceptional motocross race platforms—the YZ250F™—with added features and unique settings designed to optimize the WR for enduro riding. - Strong and Compact Electric Start Engine
A high-compression cylinder head, forged piston, new cam profiles, new intake port and much more work together to give WR250F riders a broad spread of useable thrust with excellent high-rpm power. All available with the convenient push-button starting that features a compact starter motor system battery. - Advanced Alloy Frame
A new bilateral beam aluminum frame is derived straight from the YZ250F but tuned for enduro riding. The control-filled frame centralizes mass and provides an ideal balance between cornering feel and straight-line confidence. - Robust Transmission and Clutch
The WR250F’s wide-ratio 6-speed transmission features a new cam shift design for smoother gear shifting and provides the optimized gear for tight technical terrain, as well as wide open fire roads. The clutch system has a specific friction plate combination for heat dissipation and easy clutch lever effort. - 270mm Front Brake

As well as using the YZ250Fs engine and chassis as a platform, the new 2022 WR250F also features the latest MX model’s footpegs, bars, bar holders, lightweight front axle and more to offer the full VictorYZone experience. - Multi-Function Enduro Meter
The newly designed compact meter has a higher contrast liquid crystal display with a fuel consumption indicator. The meter features two modes: Standard and Race. Standard mode displays the speedometer, two trips meters and clock functions while Race mode features average speed, timer and trip functionality along with low fuel and engine warning lights.

The Yamaha WR250F uses KYB® spring-type forks with industry-leading functionality and easy tuneability for a wide range of conditions. - EPA-Compliant Emissions

2022 Yamaha WR250F Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits
ENGINE
- Rearward-Slanted Cylinder Design
The WR250F’s distinct rearward-slanted cylinder design—complete with rear exhaust and forward-mounted intake system—features a cylinder head that works with the frame geometry for optimized weight distribution. Inside, the engine features all of the updates found in the race-focused YZ250F: a straight intake tract, aggressive cam profiles, high-compression “box bridge” piston design with DLC-coated piston pin and more. - Enduro Engine Tuning
WR250F-specific ignition and fuel injection maps are optimized for enduro riding and racing, for exceptionally smooth and controllable midrange power with longer-lasting pulling power in the top-end. - Unique Intake and Exhaust Systems
The WR250F features a two-piece air filter that works in conjunction with the tuned intake tract length and a WR-specific muffler to boost the linear feeling of traction and drive. Not only is the WR250F muffler completely mechanical—eliminating the need to repack—it integrates a U.S. Forestry Service-compliant spark arrestor too. - High-Capacity Radiator
The WR250F uses a large radiator with excellent cooling capacity shared with the YZ250F motocrosser, complete with a cooling fan for consistent performance during the toughest enduro rides. - Electric Starter System
The WR250F features a lead acid battery powered compact electric starter system to simplify restarts on the trail and add convenience everywhere else. - Advanced Fuel Injection
The engine breathes through a 44mm Mikuni® throttle body fed by a high-pressure electric pump to ensure optimum fuel atomization and power for a wide range of riding elevations and conditions.
CHASSIS/SUSPENSION
- YZ250F-Derived Bilateral Beam Frame
Yamaha’s refined aluminum frame provides high performance on technical, aggressive terrain sections and comfort for those long days in the saddle, with frame spars and engine mounts developed alongside the YZ250FX cross country racer to centralize mass for the best possible balance of bump absorption, stiffness and rider feel. - Compact Body and Seat Design
The WR250F features stylish bodywork from tip to tail, including a large 2.15 gallon, mass-centralized fuel tank. The body design is narrow for more comfortable knee grip and control, while the seat gives the rider additional room to move. Even the rear fender is designed for added rigidity to make moving the machine easier. - Class-Leading Suspension
The WR250F’s industry-leading, fully adjustable KYB® coil spring-type fork with speed sensitive damping provides exceptional balance between handling and bump absorption, with mid-speed valving tuned for improved feel at slower fork speeds. - Cross Country Wheels and Tires
The WR250F features an 18-inch rear wheel to help prevent pinch flats and provide additional comfort across rough, broken terrain.
