New Yamaha XT250 2009 Long-travel suspension and more than 11.2 inches of ground clearance live under a seat only 31.9 inches from the ground. Electric start makes firing up the 249cc four-stroke effortless. 245mm front disc and 203mm rear disc brakes combine to deliver superb stopping power on both paved and unpaved surfaces. The XT250 achieves fuel economy up to an estimated 73 mpg** with a fuel tank that holds 2.6 (CA 2.4) gallons of gas.A semi-double-cradle steel frame achieves a lighter, nimbler feel through greater mass centralization. Greater lateral and torsional rigidity and reduced weight of the lower frame parts help produce light, stable handling. 
The front fork has 8.9 inches of travel to soak up the rough stuff, both on-road and off. An aluminum lower triple clamp keeps the weight down. Maximum turning angle of the handlebar is 51 degrees—almost like a trials machine. Combined with a short wheelbase of only 53.5 inches, the XT250 has a super-tight turning radius for excellent maneuverability. A new rear shock provides 7.1 inches of wheel travel through a progressive, Monocross-style linkage system for a smooth ride. 21-inch front and 18-inch rear aluminum wheels are extremely durable and reduce unsprung weight for enhanced suspension performance and handling. 245mm front disc and 203mm rear disc brakes combine to deliver superb stopping power on both paved and unpaved surfaces. 11.2 inches of ground clearance means you’ve got serious off-road capability.
