with a collection of world championships to its name, it's one of the most respected enduro machines around. Whether you're an amateur or a professional, an enduro star or a club rider, with the WR 250 F you'll discover your true off-road potential.
It's the winning combination that enables it to compete and win on the most varied terrain: a four-stroke, five-valve, double overhead camshaft engine that revs up quickly, and a compact, lightweight aluminum chassis.
Its transmission and suspension, specially designed for enduro riding, guarantee outstanding control and maneuverability. In the woods, it's unrivalled in its agility, and on fast sections, it'll take you to high speeds without faltering.
The liquid-cooled, single-cylinder, forward-slanting, five-valve, dual overhead camshaft, four-stroke engine is rich in torque and offers the highest power output in its class at high revs. It's this engine that has won the WR 250 F a string of World Championships and made it the most respected enduro bike in the world.
The lightweight, advanced design of the aluminum chassis gives the WR 250 F a perfect balance of flexibility and stiffness, with the handling that makes champions. With its quick-release airbox, O-ring chain, lightweight protective shoe and multifunction digital instrument panel, the WR 250 F is ready to race. It's equipped with an electric starter that saves precious time in the first few seconds after the start. Of course, the kick is still there for those who prefer to stick to old habits.
