In a class by itself! There's more than one way to skin a trail, and the all-new Raptor 250 does it with light weight and cat-like reflexes. Packing big Raptor styling and real Sport ATV performance, this feisty Raptor is in a class by itself.

Key Features

Lightest production sport ATV ever—for amazingly nimble handling and a great power-to-weight ratio.
Aggressive Raptor style and stance for maximum performance and excellent, all-day sport-riding ergonomics.
Class-exclusive five-speed manual transmission has a gear for almost any terrain.
Torquey, durable air-cooled engine puts out plenty of power and starts with the push of a button.
Low-profile 19-inch rear tires for outstanding traction and handling.
Longest suspension travel and lowest seat in its class for true sport handling.

Engine

Light and powerful 249cc air-cooled SOHC four-stroke single produces a broad, deep powerband.
Five-speed gearbox with manual clutch provides the flexibility to tackle pretty much any track or trail.
29mm Mikuni carburetor provides light throttle pull and excellent throttle response across the entire rpm range.

New-design three-chamber muffler is light, quiet and boosts low and midrange performance.

Chassis/Suspension
