Last week, Yamaha handed over a fleet of 2025 Yamaha YZ250F test bikes to the media, and our buddy Ryan Villopoto was hanging out and doing the ambassador thing so we asked him to throw a leg over our SML machine and let us know what he thought. His insight was invaluable and left us rethinking what we might modify about the bike first, once our 2025 250 Shootout is completed.
