EICMA 2014 VIDEO: 2015 Yamaha WR250F

Yamaha Product Planner Derek Brooks talks about the new six-speed WR250F. Is it a KTM-beater?

Although the track-ready YZF-R1 superbike understandably stole much of the limelight at Yamaha's EICMA exhibit in Milan, we had a chance to take a closer look at the new 2015 Yamaha WR250F. This six-speed enduro machine looks like a great bike, and it proves that Yamaha is serious about competing with KTM in the performance off-road world. It's essentially an enduro version of the YZ250F, and we had a chance to talk with Yamaha Product Planner Derek Brooks about the bike.
