AGGRESSIVE YZ STYLING
Race-inspired styling - from the sharp embedded graphics, to the aggressive bodywork including front and rear fenders, blacked-out radiator shrouds and number plates, to the smaller details like fork guards, rear brake disc and caliper protectors, and wide footpegs - spotlights the YZ250's extensive two-stroke racing pedigree from every angle.

INDUSTRY-LEADING KYB® SUSPENSION
