A workhorse for a Moose and an Old Bull.
There’s a tiny subculture emerging in the adventure bike world – riders who are choosing small, light bikes instead of the big horsepower mounts that lead the field.
Probably the smallest of the bikes available to those who still want to tackle serious adventure is Yamaha’s WR250R. The trail-ready WR-R – as opposed to the enduro-ready WR-F – is a featherweight, fuel-injected, 250cc four-stroke weighing in at a svelte 134kg, fully fuelled and ready to go.
