Improved Monocross suspension, lighter and stronger swing arm, rear shock redesign, larger air box, Z-spokes, redesigned frame and exhaust pipe, lighter and stronger forks. Far more than a warmed over ’83 model, the YZ250L went through a major revamping. Targeted refinements and a huge injection of horsepower made it one of the most competitive bikes of 1984.<gallery mode="packed-hover">

There's no F after the 2002 YZ250 so we're dealing with 2-stroke might, this time. This model year received a lot of improvements, starting with a new, lighter and tougher swingarm and recalibrated suspensions, with more precise travel and providing even more control.


In the engine department, the 2002 Yamaha YZ250 comes with a new cylinder head and combustion chamber, a reshaped exhaust port, and a revised second gear for explosive power deployment. The factory-spec racing clutch lever is adjustable, and the rear master cylinder and discs are also revamped.

The 2002 Yamaha YZ250F is definitely not a toy. Of course it can be used for excellent off-road fun and weekend explorations, but it's on the dirt track where it will shine and offer the true measure of its brawn. With its 5-valve cylinder head engine and retooled suspension, the 2002 Yamaha YZ250F offers enhanced handling precision with even lower flex from the all-new frame this model year received.

While the 2-stroke quarter-liter off-road Yamaha machines have set new standards back in the day, here's a new treat for those who want to take their shot at glory. The 2003 YZ250F is blast to ride given its 13,500 rpm redline and revised engine internals. Ready to win races straight from the box, the 2003 YZ250F is equipped with an all-new titanium header for better gas flow and less weight.

If it's got an F suffix, it's a 4-stroke, so we're looking at a smooth engine powering the 2005 YZ250F. However, this quarter-liter bike is nothing like a tame beast: it packs more power than meets the eye, and thanks to its 5-speed transmission, there's also torque on tap for fast starts on the dirt track and confident uphill strides on forest trails.
 
2005 brings a lot of engine revisions, and suspension also received massive tweaking for a more balanced performance and predictable steering. The rear caliper is new, and the bike got premium Excel rims, too, complemented by a new flat seat and repackable exhaust.

Having received an all-new aluminum frame one year before, the 2005 YZ250 got a little more motocross edge thanks to some more tweaking and a new, hydroformed swingarm. The 48mm fork has also been revised, while the rear suspension got a top-drawer titanium spring, too.

The trim of the 2005 YZ250 includes multiple works-style parts and technologies to allow riders to benefit from the best bang their money can buy. Save for the engine, which is a 2-stroke, the frame is almost identical to that of the 4-stroke machines.
