CHASSIS/SUSPENSION
Advanced Aluminum Bilateral Beam Frame
The 2027 YZ250F adopts the YZ450F's compact aluminum bilateral beam frame, providing the right amount of strength and flex for the perfect balance of stability and cornering performance. The result is a better handling machine with lighter feel, more agility and increased traction allowing the rider to enter corners with greater confidence and more line choices.
Class-Leading KYB Suspension
New front and rear KYB suspension, including a new rear shock with a new base valve, piston and tool-less low speed compression adjuster, offers increased damping force, shock absorption and comfort that enhances overall traction.
Lightweight All-New Rear Brake
An all-new rear brake system has been revised to create a linear buildup of stopping power while providing significant weight savings.
Enhanced Mass-Centralization
The engine, aluminum muffler and compact fuel tank are positioned close to the machine's centre of mass. This layout contributes to centralized mass for a lightweight handling feeling on the track. The wide 55 mm foot pegs help lower the rider's centre of gravity for enhanced machine balance, control and rider comfort.
270 mm Front Brake
A large 270 mm front brake disc is the same system fitted to the YZ450F and uses an aggressive pad material for exceptional stopping power and braking control. Out back, a durable heat-resistant rear rotor boosts brake durability.
Strong, Lightweight Wheels
Careful computer-aided refinement of each wheel’s cross-sectional profile shaves valuable weight without sacrificing durability. |
