|
|
| Key Features: |

|
| Engine: |
- 249cc air-cooled four-stroke with 9.5:1 compression makes maximum power at 7500 rpm and maximum torque at 6500 rpm for great on- and off-road performance.
- A light-and-strong forged piston inside a plated cylinder helps dissipate heat more efficiently, increasing both performance and durability.
- 33mm vacuum-type carburetor keeps the airflow up for excellent performance and throttle response.
- A light crankshaft helps provide quick responsive power.
- Wide-ratio five-speed transmission for maximum power and performance in a wide range of terrain and conditions.
- Straighter intake tract for improved performance.
- Hassle-free pushbutton electric starting adds extra convenience and reliability.
- Engine is mounted high in the frame to provide an incredible 11.2 inches of ground clearance.
- Automatic cam chain tensioner means minimal maintenance and longer engine life.

| Chassis/Suspension: |
- 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 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.
