@Matt Fitzgerald I have a 2002 WR250F and I sit on it flat footed with my legs completely straight. I'm about 6' - 6'1". That being said the older bikes were taller. I'd say for it to be comfortable at the least around 5'9". If you could find a dealer with one it would help.
What's the top speed on this bike? I'm debating between it and the YZ250F, mainly for trail, field, and desert riding, and also for some street riding (I'd be getting the dual sport kit).
@philtripe Hay, you got me there, I am on road bikes these days. Sure wouldn't mind trying a 450, they seam like the right combination but the thought of a 250 4 stroke does not appeal.
@javawocky never rode a new 4 stroke? they are fast as hell now...as much as i love the cr500(or any 500) i have to admit the 450 is just as fast and much more usable power so therefore much quicker
Which Yamaha would be best for a 50 year old looking to just get out on some trails. Nothing crazy like when I was younger. WR250F? WR250R? TTR 250? looking for easy riding and comfort. I don't know the differences between these bikes....any help would be greatly appreciated mic
@philtripe ive rode the modern for 4 strokes. ive owned a crf250r and a rmz450, and personaly i feel a 2 stroke is a better bike (MUCH CHEAPER I CAN TELL YOU THAT) and i was raised on 4 strokes. if your a beginner trail rider a 250f is a beatiful bike or a hardcore agressive rider a 450f is a great bike aswell. but end of the day its personal opion and im a 2 stroke fan. Nothin like the smell of premix!
Hey guys im nearly 15 and i was thinking if this would be a good bike for me. I've had some experience on 125s and 150s and i wanted some more power, i am about 6 foot tall. Thanks guys
Why can't they make it look like the wr450f or the yz250f/450f. newer plastic and stuff. if I bought a bike new, I'd get a ktm XC or yz250f for the looks.
250s are same size bike just less CC get a kawi 250 they are tall and you can raise it up im 6foot tall and can barely touch on a kawi so you would be fine.
i kno plenty of people who buy them and i said my in opion there better, for a top end on my rm250 is 120 bucks and i can do it my self, on my old rmz450 was 500 wit labor,
Actually you are wrong .. all people say always honda is the master ... well guess what its not sure but MAYBE!. And About KTM ohh my godness every single friend i have with ktm always complains they have the biggest maintenance from the other bikes they brake so easy.. so guess what , Yamaha is definately in the top 3.
So, to summarise, this is a boring heavy 4 stock with tree hugging technology which makes it worse - kick it to the curb and go find a 250 2 smoker and live a little.
"the shifting and the brakes work." you don't say
Thanks for the video, but could you make the music a bit quieter next time? It is really annoying

Whats wrong with a 4 stroke its cheaper to take care of and is a solid bike

if you use google chrome you can geet an add that blocks all ads.. just to let ya know :)
I had an 06, that was a top bike.
This would be even better.
@SiXAXiSMofo no they did the x or enduro version
Is this road legal? Are there any good mx or enduro bikes that are? Is it possible to mod this to make it road legal?

wr250f or crf250x?
so what I'm getting from these vids is that I should go and buy a KTM 350 EXC??
yeah like i said its up to rider opinion and i personaly love to ring the neck a 2 stroke more than a 4 stroke
I'm 15 5'7 or 5'8 I'm looking to get a bigger bike, should I get this or a yz250f??
Depends if you want a 2-stroke or a 4-stroke
where Will you be riding it ?
I liked and I loved all of your videos so I had to subscribe.
SONG?

cr500
Are you backwards?
no lol this is a good bike for you
+Tyler Clark It's a very very good bike
do you have experiense on 125 2 or 4 strokes ?
I'm 5 10, would I be able to touch the ground on this?
Ya I'm 5"8 and I can touch on a 450
eruffdaddy21 Is it comfortable on a WR450? Im the same heigh as you lol
Wr450 is much taller than your average 450. I am 511 and I can't touch on one.
Why can't they make it look like the wr450f or the yz250f/450f. newer plastic and stuff. if I bought a bike new, I'd get a ktm XC or yz250f for the looks.
2013, still not using Adbock. You sir, are the only thing that sucks.
I'm 6'5 but I don't want a 450 anyone have an answer to the height problem
250s are same size bike just less CC get a kawi 250 they are tall and you can raise it up im 6foot tall and can barely touch on a kawi so you would be fine.

Yamaha makes the most reliable bikes on the market,read any thread online.
Thanks buddy!! :)
download the application ad block
well its not a liquid then i guess its solid?
@Premixoctane no i think there way to lazy. and 2 strokes where its at!
ad blocker rocks though..
Number ONE!
@SiXAXiSMofo im sorry no it seems im mistaken
AdBlock my friend!
The BEST!!!
i guess its a solid bike then..
Actually you are wrong .. all people say always honda is the master ... well guess what its not sure but MAYBE!. And About KTM ohh my godness every single friend i have with ktm always complains they have the biggest maintenance from the other bikes they brake so easy.. so guess what , Yamaha is definately in the top 3.
@Ultimatemxcn ads suck
y are they cheaper no one buys them and the hole world is going to 4 for racing
2 stroke ftw.
It's all about cr 500
For me 4 strokes are better. But its all in rider not in bike.
90% rider 10% bike.
So, to summarise, this is a boring heavy 4 stock with tree hugging technology which makes it worse - kick it to the curb and go find a 250 2 smoker and live a little.
"installs alot of confidence" when did speaking correctly become too much work for people?
It makes sense though lol. He installed some confidence haaahahah
Andrew Hollywood Since “alot” is actually two words some people also seem to find it hard to type correctly.
