Yamaha's profilation of this bike |
The benchmark just got higher
If you want to succeed in Lites, you’ve got to beat the YZ250F – it’s that simple. And if the other brands want to beat this YZ250F in 2007, they’d better have spent the off season working at least as hard as our engineers have.
The YZ250F powers into season 2007 with a massive number of changes, some small, and some that just sound small. But in combination, they’ll have a dramatic effect on how you – and those trying to keep sight of your rear guard – perceive your new Yamaha.
Naturally, it will still have the same bulletproof reliability that YZs are famous for and other brands are striving for, but you’ll notice an even more flavoursome top-end punch.
But we weren’t finished with the engine. We also moved it, then moved the frame’s steering head tube, then re-tuned the flex quotients built into the frame, and shaved weight off a heap of components in critical areas.
The first time you ride a 2007 YZ250F through a corner you’ll see why.
