2008 Yamaha YZ250, 2 stroke 2008 Yamaha YZ250F Key Features May Include Our legendary two-stroke Supercross winner is more potent than ever. 500 grams off the front end makes this the quickest turning, best- handling YZ250 ever. A light, aluminum frame housing a patented YPVS Power valve- equipped ripper of an engine results in an awesome power-to-weight ratio. Ready to race out-of-the-crate, complete with a ProTaper aluminum handlebar, titanium footpegs, gripper seat and Excel rims. Features & Benefits New For 2008 New, YZ250F-style front-brake caliper (-220 grams) and light, wave-type discs (-70 grams) front and (-70 grams) rear remove unsprung weight and provide excellent stopping power. A new, pushrod-type front master cylinder with a smaller piston and a redesigned brake lever serve up great feel and braking power. Modifying thickness of both inner and outer fork tubes in the 48mm inverted fork result in a weight reduction of 200 grams. Revised damping settings provide fantastic bump absorption and comfort. A 120-gram lighter fork protector, lighter axle and axle bracket, lighter wheel collar and the new front brake add up to a 500-gram lighter front end and even quicker, lighter handling. Revised rear shock settings complement the ones in the fork. Engine 249cc liquid-cooled reed-valve-inducted two-stroke engine is lightweight, compact and features an incredibly wide, hard-hitting powerband. Patented YPVS power-valve system combines crisp, hard-hitting, bottom-end acceleration with strong midrange and eye-opening top- end. Special-design carbon fiber reed-valve petals improve throttle response and engine performance across the entire rpm range. Smooth-shifting, five-speed, close-ratio transmission with heavy-duty, multiplate clutch. Primary kickstarter ensures smooth, easy starting action and reduced weight. Large-capacity radiator features a ten-row core with four louvers for maximum cooling efficiency. 38mm Keihin PWK carburetor with power jet and throttle position sensor (TPS) ensures precise fuel/air mixing and extra-crisp throttle response throughout the powerband. Digital CDI ignition system delivers precise spark for faster, stronger response anywhere in the powerband. Trick, works-style clutch lever features race-spec barrel adjuster for on- the-fly adjustability. Chassis/Suspension A carefully engineered, advanced aluminum frame and swingarm give the YZ250 the best handling in the 250 class. Speed-Sensitive System 48mm Kayaba fork tubes move the transfer control valves (TCV) above the fork springs, so that damping force is controlled by piston speed instead of position. Along with a bigger base valve hole, the result is a smooth ride and super-precise handling. Removabl
