In Malaysia, the Yamaha YZF‑R25 competes in the 250 cc sportbike segment as a fully‑faired, lightweight supersport. It’s powered by a 249 cc liquid‑cooled, DOHC parallel‑twin engine producing around 35.5 hp at 12,000 rpm and approximately 22.6–26.6 Nm of torque at 10,000 rpm, paired with a six‑speed manual gearbox. The bike features full LED lighting, a monochrome LCD instrument panel, and dual‑channel ABS for enhanced safety. Suspension includes non‑adjustable upside‑down forks up front and a preload‑adjustable monoshock at the rear, riding on 17‑inch wheels with 110/70 front and 140/70 rear tyres. For the Malaysian market, the R25 is offered in a single Standard variant, available in Glacier White and Racing Blue, with on‑the‑road prices around RM 19,464–19,998 in recent model years.
