2018 Yamaha V Star 250

STAR LIGHT, STAR BRIGHT.

Great things come in small packages: light and nimble, plenty of torque, smooth power, huge MPGs and a low seat for confident handling.

Features may include:

Engine

Uniquely Potent V-twin

Air-cooled, 249cc, 60-degree V-twin engine with a long 66mm stroke produces plenty of bottom-end torque and smooth roll-on power. And it’s the only V-twin engine in its class, too.

Smooth Running

Single 26mm Mikuni® downdraft carburetor ensures optimal fuel/air mixing and delivery with superb throttle response.

Flexible Gearing

Widely geared five-speed transmission makes the most of V Star 250’s powerband.

Chassis/Suspension

Agile Chassis

58.7-inch wheelbase creates a long, low package with great handling and maneuverability.

Strong Brakes

282mm single front disc brake and a rear drum brake provide plenty of stopping power.

Low Seat Height

Plush and low-stepped saddle keeps the rider sitting low and lets almost everybody flatfoot the pavement.

Additional

Open Riding Position

A custom style handlebar gives the V Star 250 a modern look and comfortable riding position.

Big Bike Style

Extensive chrome details accent engine and side covers for incomparable “big bike” fit and finish.

Generous Fuel Range

Stylishly sculpted teardrop fuel tank features 2.5-gallon capacity for excellent cruising range.
