Yamaha WR 250R 2008

Yamaha WR 250R 2008

250 cc 4-stroke, is that even possible? And then a supposedly tamed version of the competition version WR250F. But what has to be said about this new Yamaha WR250R is that the list price of €6695 and then the 2-year mobility guarantee and 4-year warranty put everything in the shade. The WR250F has proven since 2001 that it has a lot going for it.

Well-working, controllable brakes

good handling

plenty of power

optimal in nimble spots

low list price.

Chassis sags on long tables

takes getting used to

not a particularly nice sound

The BMW is a great, simple and very comfortable entry-level motorbike for adventurous everyday riders. Both commuting and day trips work very well with it. But the power is already quite low. With 34 hp, it is very beginner-friendly, but you very quickly wish for more punch and power. Especially at a price of about 6000 €, it is questionable whether one can financially cope with such a quick change of motorbikes, or not go straight for a more powerful bike in the A2 class.

Comfortable seating position

low weight

high-quality workmanship

beginner-friendly throttle response

also possible to ride through light terrain.

little power, especially at higher speeds

high price
