Five Things That Make The Yamaha XT250 Awesome!

The Yamaha XT250 is awesome! A bulletproof, versatile machine that will grind out what you throw at it. I love mine and plan on getting another one. So I made a video about a few things which I believe make this bike so excellent.

I know we are all here for the same reasons, this great channel and these great bikes.
I was very fortunate yesterday to meet my wife at the local motorsports shop to show her the elusive XT250 as I have been looking for one for a year to no avail. They had one on the floor on Friday and when I arrived yesterday it was gone. They get them in pairs of two and only had a couple last year.
We walked around looking at other bikes and then I spotted it back in the left corner of the store. It was all shined up and ready to go. Everything that is sold goes to the left corner of the store. I said to her "That's the one I have been trying to find to show you." I turned to walk off and she tearfully said "That's yours, I bought it for you."!
You've got to be freakin kidding me, what a day! I never expected that, but after 31yrs. I know she still loves me, as she was just as happy as myself.
Now I have some accessory questions for you guys. I am planning on bigger foot pegs to start. Besides that I am interested in handguards, a rear rack, and Rotopax gas can.
I am also in need of a full face helmet (as I only have an open face), riding jacket, riding pants, and riding boots. I already have gloves.
I am looking for well priced brands on all these items from the bike accessories to the clothing. If you guys have certain brands or places you buy your products that would be great to know. If they can come off Amazon that would be great as well. I am figuring around $200-250 for a helmet to get started.
Sorry about all the rambling, I am just excited. Thanks

Thank you very much for the video. Learned a lot!
I am travelling from Canada to Costa Rica at the end of February on a 2013 XT250. I know how good this bike is!

Since I bought my 2023 XT250 I’ve probably watched all of your XT250 vids. I’ve made a lot of similar upgrades to mine. Thanks for the content!

I've also got a 2020, they've been fuel injected since 2013 I think, and I didn't know it was possible to bump start with EFI so that's great info that you were able to do it!

Just got mine in February. I’m kinda new motorcycle rider minus my few years experience of dirt bike riding when I was a kid 15years ago. Fantastic bike though it does great for town travel and off roaming too. It’s does best on highway between 35-55mph I’d say
Super happy with my purchase.

Great review This bike has definitely earned legendary status in the realm of dual purpose bikes. Such a pleasure to ride.

I have one and love it. I put brackets on it for my Moto Mule to carry my camp, they work great for that.

Recently purchased a 2009 xt250. Have not yet used it in any trails, only city riding and I love it!

[georgenewman]

XT250s are easy to love. I had a 2009 until I sold it in 2023 and had zero issues. They have limitations, but if you like what it does you will be happy for a very long time.

I picked up a 22 Honda Rally 300 last fall. I really like it. In late Nov I got my wife a 21 XT 250 due to the low seat height and could not be happier. Added flatland skid plate; DMO pegs and parabellum rally wind screen. Great bike. I am impressed with what you are doing off road with yours. Cannot wait to try the XT. It is 45 lbs lighter than my 300 Rally, but feels even lighter.

Flooded my xt on an oil road in Kentucky, underwater with the throttle stuck on. After about a half an hour started and got me home to include a 55mph highway. After getting back found out the air intake box was full of water, and it still got me home. (Did need about 5 oil changes to clear the chocolate milk oil).

Found a 2022 with only 500 miles on it and pulled the trigger. Did one weekend of trail riding about a month ago and have another planned next weekend--Where I live I have to drive a fair distance to get off-road. In the interim, I've done a bit of neighborhood cruising on it. It is a totally different experience from my street bike (big ol '93 Suzuki GSX1100G), and it's a unique sort of fun. I'm very happy with the purchase. My buddy rides a WR250 and says I'll outgrow my XT250, but I'm thinking it's a keeper. We'll see. Thanks for the excellent videos--I've been binge watching your channel. Hope the recovery from the wreck is going well.

Yeah Yamaha is a good bike even the predicessor the xt225 very good in uphill and even in highways.big up yamaha for xt225serow.

[tskorka]

Sold mine last year and missing it. Planning to get another soon, this time with EFI. Great review!

[LongRider]

Great nimble bike. You’re developing a nice stable of bikes!

[XTallday]

I easily get 120 miles on a tank as that's usually when my low fuel indicator comes on which means I have .5 gallons to go. I've done 150 miles on a tank. Nice vid. It's a mtn goat and so fun.

[Eric--zsum]

I have had a soft spot for the xt250 since I had an 81 xt250 back in 83.

[marcusmckenzie]

Hello, wow, thank you for this amazing video! Love your bike, it kinda looks like a cyborg or war-mech in motorcycle configuration! <3 Love It!
