Overview

Conquer Dirt

The high flying, high paced action of motocross is not for everyone. As a result, the slightly less intense world of cross country / harescramble racing is experiencing solid growth and interest. The YZ250FX is a cross country focused model with the performance potential of the YZ250F. If you are serious about winning, the YZ250FX could be the machine for you.
 /// Electric Start
  Convenient, dependable electric start ensures hassle-free, push button start.
 /// PERFORMANCE
The YZ250FX uses the "Best in Class" YZ250F reversed cylinder, rearward slanted engine with modified fuel injection settings, electric starting and a 6-speed transmission. With the optional GYT-R YZ Power tuner, you can adjust both fuel mapping and ignition mapping to best suit conditions and riding ability.
/// The Extras
  Featuring KYB "SSS" forks and a fully adjustable KYB rear shock, the FX uses the same suspension as its MX cousin with softer settings and slightly more rear wheel travel. Also included is a lightweight aluminum side stand and an 18" rear wheel. With a maximum noise output of 94 dB, the muffler is the same as the current YZ250F.
 /// Key Features
  • Latest generation YZ250F based rear slanting engine & Bilateral Beam chassis
  • Forward mounted fuel injection & wrap around exhaust
  • Electric starting
  • 6-speed transmission
  • YZ based, adjustable suspension

    • FI throttle body & air box are front mounted, providing a straight intake path
    • straight intake path into the cylinder, provides optimum fuel/ air flow for excellent power
    • front mounted intake design keeps fuel cooler since engine heat has less effect on incoming fuel (cooler fuel is more dense & increases power)
    • design centralize mass for light, agile handling
  • Electric start with manual kick starter & auto decompression system. Unit can be re-started in any gear.
  • There is no main ignition switch on this model.
