There's an entire class of customer out there looking for the perfect ATV. They want something sporty, but don’t necessarily need a full-race vehicle. It should be fun to ride, but also be different from the run-of-the-mill "play" machines out there. Perhaps most importantly, it needs to mesh with a younger, performance-oriented lifestyle. Lucky for them – for all of us, really – the all-new 2008 Yamaha Raptor 250 has arrived.
When the ever-popular Blaster was discontinued in 2006, it left a sizeable hole in the Yamaha Sport ATV line-up. What would the younger, sport-minded customer ride? A re-hashed, smaller-bore utility quad that Yamaha’s competition tries to pawn off as a “sport” ATV? Yamaha customers expect more. They want an ATV that packs a punch – something developed from the ground up as a true sport machine. The all-new Raptor 250 is that and more.Knowing that this customer is all about performance, the Raptor 250 features a five-speed manual transmission giving the rider control over the power delivery from the single cylinder 249cc air-cooled, four-stroke engine. An on-board 29mm Mikuni carburetor offers optimum low- to mid-range performance.
