Yamaha Introduces 2018 WR250F and WR450F

Powering you into the victorYZone

Yamaha are powering into the 2018 season with the latest WR250F and WR450F, two of the world’s most innovative and successful enduro bikes with a distinguished track record in EnduroGP and Enduro 2. Benefitting from some of the most advanced GP-developed engine and chassis technology, the WR250F and WR450F have the potential to take every rider into the victorYZone.

For the 2018 model year, the WR250F boasts a number of new features such as a new cylinder head design to boost power output and a new ECU that optimizes the engine feeling. Not stopping there, the bilateral beam frame found on the race-winning YZ250F has been added to WR250F to improve handling.

WR450F also benefits from a new ECU to optimize fuelling and ignition timing to ultimately improve throttle feel. Revised suspension settings deliver enhanced handling characteristics.

Both models have had their kickstarter removed in order to reduce weight and also feature new graphics and blue rims.
