2005 Yamaha WR250F reviews

The bike is awesome in the Pit, Trail, whatever you throw at it, she can handle no problem, however, the thing is a pain in the rear to start, Hot or Cold. The starting procedure is ridicules and far to time consuming. Still, top notch performance. The yzf250 has more power but not enough to make you miss it. All and all great bike when running.

This bike has big torque and climbs anything I throw at it! It keeps up with some 450s. It has excellent trail performance and good track performance, too. Show less

Initially drawn to this bike by light weight and electric start for use as an aggresive trail bike. After overcoming the built in performance handicaps, cam timing, restrictive pipe, grey wire, air box, carb stop. etc, it runs like it should. Not as fast as YZ 250's, but about the same as the YZ250F. Good quality brakes, bars, chain/sprockets. Kick stand works well. Headlight is bright enough for road use. Proper oil changes are time consuming and a hassle. Show less
