Per VINdown's modeling, the Yamaha WR250R retains an estimated 76% of its value after five years, ranking #134 of 1052 powersports vehicles we track. That is 13 points above the 63% five-year average for Dirt in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
The loss does not land all at once here: the Yamaha WR250R sheds about 5% in year one and keeps going at much the same rate. From roughly $6,699 it falls to around $5,111 by year five — a five-year loss near $1,588, about $0.87 a day in depreciation.
There is no single sweet spot on the Yamaha WR250R: it gives up a similar share of its value every year rather than falling off a cliff, so how long you keep it matters more than what age you buy it at. Explore the full year-by-year curve, trims, and true cost of ownership in the Model Lab above.
