The 2023 Yamaha XT250: An Entry-Level Dual-Sport That’s Ready to Go Anywhere

Contents​


If you’re just getting started in the wonderful world of motorcycles and are looking for a bike that can do it all, the Yamaha XT250 should be high up on your list of options. It’s a light, nimble, and entertaining package designed by Japan’s very best to thrive in every condition — whether pottering around town or through trails.

Like last year’s model, the XT250 part of the 2023 Yamaha lineup features a 249cc air-cooled, fuel-injected, 2-valve, single-pot engine that puts out 19 hp and 14 lb-ft of torque. It’s not much, but it’s enough to give a new rider room to grow. While it will find itself a place in the urban jungle, the XT250 is predominantly an off-road motorcycle. It’s pretty apparent when you look at the long-travel suspension or the 11.2 inches of ground travel. Yamaha has also built the bike to be highly sturdy and reliable, and you won’t have to worry about riding it hard off-road.

The 2023 Yamaha XT250 has little to offer in terms of electronic rider aids, but that’s allowed Yamaha to price it exceptionally well. It’s one of the most affordable motorcycles in the company’s current portfolio, but it has plenty to offer for what it’s worth.

The 2023 Yamaha XT250 starts at $5,299 USD / $6,199 CAD.

On this page: we’ve curated specs, features, news, photos/videos, etc. so you can read up on the new 2023 Yamaha XT250 in one place.

Trail-Ready Chassis

CHASSIS/SUSPENSION​

Advanced Long-Travel Suspension

The front fork has 8.9 inches of travel to soak up the rough stuff, both on- and off-road while an aluminum lower triple clamp reduces weight.

Dirt-Ready Wheels

21-inch front and 18-inch rear aluminum wheels are extremely durable and reduce unsprung weight for enhanced suspension performance and handling.

Generous Ground Clearance

The maximum turning angle of the handlebar is 51 degrees—almost like a trials machine—combined with a short wheelbase of only 53.5 inches, the XT250 has a super-tight turning radius for excellent maneuverability.

Strong, Compact Frame

A semi-double-cradle steel frame achieves a lighter, nimbler feel through optimized mass centralization. Greater lateral and torsional rigidity along with reduced weight of the lower frame parts help produce light, stable handling.
