SR250

There are plenty of highly sophisticated, very expensive motorcycles in the world. But there are also plenty of people who want a simple bike. One that is affordable and easy to ride. Economical yet fun to own. A bike which gets them where they want to go without making a big deal about it. Enter the SR250. From Yamaha. A motorcycle that gives you more fun... simply.

From its lightweight spoked wheels to its sleek teardrop fuel tank and richly chromed exhaust system, the SR250 is an exercise in styling excellence. Good as it looks, we built the SR250 to ride. Its 239 cc, SOHC, 4-stroke engine puts out plenty of power for highway riding, commuting to work or just putting around town. Docile yet responsive, it goes hundreds of kilometers on a single tank of fuel.

Think of it as a no-frills motorcycle with something for everyone. Sensible riders will appreciate the economy and reliability of its single-cylinder, air-cooled engine. New riders will appreciate its electric starter and low seat. And everyone will love its affordable price and great looks. The SR250. A simple motorcycle for people who aren't.

SR250 Features
The air-cooled, 239 cc, SOHC, 4-stoke engine pumps out plenty of responsive torque and is equipped with a special gear-driven counterbalancer for smooth running. Push-button electric starting and electronic ignition make it as easy to ride as it is to maintain. A lightweight and compact steel tube frame is the key to the SR250's slim design and low seat height. The simple yet efficient single downtube design gives great low-speed manoeuvrability and reliable handling. Responsive telescopic front forks soak up road irregularities with ease, and the dual rear shock absorbers are adjustable for spring preload. Together they give a smooth ride over a wide range of riding conditions. A simple, efficient motorcycle should have simple and efficient brakes. The SR250 uses reliable front and rear drum brakes for braking performance you can depend on. A beefy 16-inch rear tyre adds stability and traction. Like the 18-inch front tyre, it is mounted on a stylish wire-spoke wheel. Simple and aesthetically pleasing, these lightweight wheels perfectly suit the SR250's image. The teardrop tank is as functional as it is good-looking. It has a 10.7-litre fuel capacity for long distances between fill-ups and an automatic fuel valve. The comfortable stepped seat has plenty of room for riding two-up or carrying small packages.
