Yamaha WR250R and WR250X Forum

Hi all. I am new to the WR250R world. Just bought a new to me 2011 this week. It does not start. What better way to get acquainted with the bike then by taking it apart and testing every circuit? I also ride an Africa Twin. Looking forward to being an active part of the forum. I am quickly finding things that m...

I will start by saying that I love riding in the mud , its so much fun with the wr250r After two weeks of rain I finally got out to ride, rain caught up with me at the beginning of the ride but it ended pretty fast so the rest of the ride was with great weather.I met an SUV rider on the way and we both rode together ....

Hi All, New to the forum. Just picked up a "new to me" 2011 WR250R...that does not start. I did see it running last year.Last time it got used, it left home by starting with the button. Then it would only start by bump starting. Bump starting got harder. Then it sat for about 5 months. When I got it on Monday:...

It rained for two weeks until it finally stopped and we got out to ride in the mud

My son Matt lives in Spain and "inherited" my WR250R from the UK. He wants to put it on Spanish plates and has to return it to its original specification before the ITV test. He has got stuck on the headlight and needs to swap out the UK headlight. Does anyone have a Euro headlight they might be willing to se...

Hi All, I just joined the forum ! I’m Jon, I live in London and I’m ancient, I have been biking on and off (I try to stay mostly on) for decades. I have just bought a 2009 WR250R, it has had a couple of mods done, got an FMF zorst and header, teeny led indicators, crazy low gearing at present, 12/49 ! and very kno...

Is this forum still alive? I've been using the one in the States but saw this this morning. I've just picked up a WR250X which I'm in the process of converting to the R. Any tips would be great especially re getting the suspension sorted. Am already in conversation with Travis form Go Race but anybody wo...

Hi There, Looking for a non OEM seat for my WR250R. Also looking for non OEM Mirrors and Skid Plate. Thanks Peter

I’m based in the UK and have recently purchased a Yamaha WR250X which I’m converting to a WR250R. I’m wanting to get some advise on upgrading the stock suspension especially the rear shock as it’s just not quite there for me. I’m planning on doing mostly ADV but with some off road fun too. I’m 6ft weig...

Morning all! Just thought I'd introduce myself, being new to these parts. I ride a 2010 WR250R, which I'm making into a mini adventure bike for on/off road travels, plus the odd green lane when I'm at home. I also have an F650GS Dakar for longer travels, although being fairly new to bikes, I haven't rid...

I am under pressure to clear some room on my shelves so have reluctantly agreed to sell my collection of Trail Bike & Enduro Magazine (TBM) / Dirt Junkies mags. The May and October 2009 mags feature the WR250R. In fact the October mag asks if the WR250R is the best trailie ever ; But we knew that alread...

Hi, I'm from Dublin, living in Northern Ireland, just outside Belfast. I currently ride a '16 R1200GS LC and '12 Speed Triple R, I'm planning to sell my Speed Triple R and get a WR250R to start trail riding. My goal is to start doing some off road navigation rallies next year. I'm also planning to move t...

Hello, I am 48 years old and I am from Greece and live in the city of Galatsi, which is very close to Athens. A lot of motorcycles have passed since my hands, but in May 2017 I bought a brand new 2014 WR250R that was forgotten in the Yamaha warehouses here in Athens. At the moment it's the only bike I have and I m...

Anyone out there know where to possibly find a match for the WRR black frame for touching in a few spots? Much thanks as always, Paul

Hello to one and all, Long time no see, but with a year packed full of riding trips taking me out to places like Cambodia and Andalucia to mention a few, i just couldn't seem to find the time to chime in now and then. A very happy new year to you all. Still an avid WRR enthusiast, in fact maybe a little too much s...

Hi, All I'm back with another starting issue. When I hit the starter button the motor spins over but doesn't engage every so often it catches but fails to start as it dis engages just before. Do you think its the one way bearing that has failed ?

Well it's the Flinders Ranges in the North of South Australia. we go up there every year & ride gorges, farm tracks & dry weather roads. Slide show of various photos, it's a great spot & worth the 500kms up & back. As my TTR is for sale the next trip will be on the WRR This is a little differ...

Hi Anyone else out there suffering from trouble starting, after their bike has spent the day standing in UK sunshine? 2008 R that has 8k miles on clock, used for occasional commute to work (East London), that has refused to start at end of day during recent heatwaves (May and June)!

Hi I need a cylinder head gasket. Does anybody have one lying around I could buy, or know of a company who might have stock. All the usual suppliers out of stock and long delivery times. Many Thanks Phil

(which I would prefer) Wheels can be viewed in Washington Tyne and Wear or Consett Co Durham Thanks Phil -- Edited by philmedomsley on Monday 11th...

Taken a bit of a hit on the front end which has left me with a flat spot on my front rim. I can live with it on the lanes, but it rides like a rocking horse on the road. I don’t want to miss the summer riding while it’s sorted , plus a spare set would be very handy, so, on the wild off chance that someone may have a 21...
