Two new offroad 250F's from Yamaha for 2015

im hoppin to love a fat chick tonight

Have you seen specs on the new bike?
I know the current WR450F is a big mofo (One reason I bought my 449)

The 2015 YZ250F (that the WR is based on) is 105kg wet.....by your reckoning that's a lot of extra wiring & lights to bring it up to the TE's weight.

I think we should give it a few days. First they listed the bike at 295lbs, then changed it to 259lbs and now it looks like they have it at 249. lol

I sometimes lie about my weight too .

.

105kg sounds believable thats 231lbs

Maybe it's been working out with a personal, 'Biggest loser' style

I love it, I hope the 450 gets the same treatment.
It will definitely be on my radar next time I buy a bike.

Looks like they haven't nailed the specs yet...

seat height is listed as a very beginner friendly 38.0mm !

Maybe that's the foam thickness

38 inches in metric is 965mm, slightly more believable

What is the price in the US ? That could steal customers away from the orange.

I'm sure that's the plan!!
Bring it on

At last, the return of one of the best enduro bikes!!!

It has a very innovative design and will be fun to ride with.

I don't like the position of muffler, more moved away of CDG (best in FX)...
Heavy, 118kg full, It has the same weiht than WRF 250 2007, same weight 7 years later??.
Small tank for pure enduro...
Non hydraulically activated clutch...

Yes, 110kg or so dry is heavier that the competition but I'd expect good strong power from this engine.
It won't be the old tractor reliable, tractor slow engine we've had for the last 10+ years.

Fully agree with the cable clutch......when will the Japanese fit hydraulics to their bikes??
