Yamaha XT250R weight FAQ
What is the Yamaha XT250R wet weight?
The supplied wet/running weight is 295.4 lb (134 kg) across the model years covered here. That figure is the most useful available number for real-world handling because operating fluids and fuel are included.

Using the model’s representative wet/running weight and a 180 lb rider, the combined bike-and-rider mass is about 475.4 lb (215.6 kg) before riding gear, luggage or a passenger.
What is the Yamaha XT250R torque-to-weight ratio?
Where compatible torque and weight figures are available, the model works out to 5.89 lb-ft per 100 lb. This gives more context than torque alone because it relates engine twist to the mass it has to move.
How large is the Yamaha XT250R engine for its weight?
The available figures work out to 0.85 cc per lb. This is not a performance rating, but it is a useful way to compare engine size against total motorcycle mass.

Expect the weight to matter more off the throttle than at speed: garage movement, uneven footing and parking angle are the practical situations to think about.
Motorcycle specifications can vary by model year, market, equipment and the exact dry/curb-weight definition.
