#YAMAHA SEROW 225 FOR SALE DRIVERS#

There were short stretches of steep descents as well and this is where the SerowвЂ™s low gearing proved invaluable. Sure enough, it made much of the terrain easier to handle. After all, I was tense for the first few kilometers. Our colleagues had advised me to keep my shoulders and elbows loose. Once out of that area, we were traveling pretty quickly over the river bed. To be fair, everyone seemed to have trouble keeping it straight here. Admittedly, the only part it struggled with was a short stretch of soft lahar. I easily rolled through muddy tracks and soft riverbeds with no problem. The knobby tires on the 21-inch front wheel and 18-inch rear wheel seemed to find grip even where there seemingly was none. Most of the time, I find the bike practically idling along over most of the bumps compared to our colleagues on XTZвЂ™s that were already revving high. Paired with a 250 cc engine, thatвЂ™s quite a lot of power, particularly for off-road terrain. ItвЂ™s also quite light, tipping the scales at just 133 kg wet weight. Its seat height of 830 mm is accessible for most riders. Like most trail bikes, the Yamaha Serow is relatively high but not too much for the short of stature.

IвЂ™m no off-road expert and so I had my apprehensions about taking the Serow to a trail frequented by hardcore 4x4 drivers and trail riders. Many of these features would prove more valuable once on the trail already. Finally, there are grip handles in the rear to easily pick up the bike if you drop it over an obstacle. Toothed footpegs also ensure good grip even when your riding boots are caked in mud. Its long seat allows for a variety of riding positions, letting the rider find one that returns the best balance for the situation. It has long stroke suspension to tame even the roughest of bumps for a comfortable ride. First of all, it has low engine noise so as not to disturb nearby residents. What sets the Serow apart from the competition are elements that make it ideal for a trail. ThereвЂ™s also an O 2 sensor in the exhaust pipe to ensure a constant optimum air / fuel mixture - vital when going off-road in a mountain where the air can get thinner as you climb. The Serow 250 is now Euro-4 compliant thanks to a reworked exhaust that adds an additional canister to limits emissions. These figures may not be new but what has changed is the modelвЂ™s emissions compliance. It is fuel injected and produces 19.6 PS at 7,500 rpm and 20.3 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. Powering it is a 248 cc air-cooled 4-stroke single cylinder SOHC engine. Yamaha has reworked the rear fender to accommodate the new tail light as well as distinguish it from its predecessor. It retains the 100 mm halogen headlight in front, but features a new LED rear tail light for better visibility. ItвЂ™s now available in two-tone white and orange or white and blue. cash on collection Condition: Used, Condition: Good greenlaner, Returns Accepted: ReturnsNotAccepted, Year: 1993, Manufacturer: Yamaha, Model: serow, Type: Enduro/Supermoto (road legal), Fuel: Petrol, Engine Size: 225, Previous owners (excl.Most noticeable in the updated Serow is its new look.

Bike has been kept in good working order and started regularly. A reliable little bike, mechanically good and a good runner, however I just haven't used it very much in the past couple of years, hence sale. This is a well used Greenlaner with the usual scuffs and knocks associated with the age of the bike and terrain.
