Supporting the motorcycle
Since the Yamaha XT250 has no
centerstand, follow these precau-
tions when removing the front and
rear wheel or performing other
maintenance requiring the motor-
cycle to stand upright. Check that
the motorcycle is in a stable and
level position before starting any
maintenance. A strong wooden
box can be placed under the
engine for added stability.
Front wheel service
To stabilize the rear of the motor-
cycle, either use a motorcycle
stand or place a motorcycle jack
under the frame in front of the rear
wheel to prevent it from moving
from side to side. Then use a
motorcycle stand to elevate the
front wheel off of the ground.
