Chassis/Suspension Features

• Strong, Compact Frame: A semi-double-cradle steel frame achieves a lighter, nimbler feel through greater mass centralization. Greater lateral and torsional rigidity and reduced weight of the lower frame parts help produce light, stable handling.
• Advanced Long-Travel Suspension: The front fork has 8.9 inches of travel to soak up the rough stuff, both on- and off-road while an aluminum lower triple clamp keeps the weight down.
• Nimble Steering: The maximum turning angle of the handlebar is 51 degrees—almost like a trials machine. Combined with a short wheelbase of only 53.5 inches, the XT250 has a super-tight turning radius for excellent maneuverability.
• Linkage-Style Shock: A rear shock provides 7.1 inches of wheel travel through a progressive Monocross® linkage system for a smooth ride.
• Dirt-Ready Wheels: 21-inch front and 18-inch rear aluminum wheels are extremely durable and reduce unsprung weight for enhanced suspension performance and handling.
• Generous Ground Clearance: 11.2 inches of ground clearance means you've got serious off-road capability.
