The Brand new Yamaha Motor Corp. USA, dual-purpose motorcyclists were at odds on where they rode their bikes: 46% rode in the street and 54% take them off road, so Yamaha positive to offer two similar models cuisine to both sides of the segment's split qualities. The result is a dirt-oriented WR250R and a street-centric Supermoto call the WR250X, which is the one I tested. That's good news because the gas tank on the WR250X holds now two gallons and takes best and premium-priced 91 octanes to supply its high-performance engine.
The latest WR250s are the first dirt-capable Yamaha models to be fuel injected and catalyzed. Still, the WR250X is a only. So it isn't just powerful. Its minute displacement meant I was kick throughout the lower gears in quick sequence to get any kind of speed, particularly on the divided highway. For the vertically challenged, an aftermarket postponement mod could be in order. Or they could just wait till yet a new dual sport hits the market.
