My buddy was kind enough to lend me his Yamaha WR250R to take out and test in the woods on some gravel roads, OHV trails, and singletrack. They may have discontinued the Yamaha WR250R, but it's still a top-tier choice for those looking for a bulletproof reliable dual sport motorcycle that's very capable on gravel, mud, and other surfaces. I got to do a ton of WR250R trail riding and exploring the forest on gravel roads and really got a good sense of the Yamaha WR250R off road performance. This off road test ride and Yamaha WR250R review covers all my thoughts on on and off road performance, highway riding, whether or not it's a good beginner bike, and some of the coolest WR250R mods you can make to make this dual sport bike even more capable and faster both on and off the road. I had a fantastic time making this WR250R test ride and review for you. I hope you enjoy it!
