Tested a change? Record what happened. LAISA stores it against this bike and this condition. The recommendation above does not adapt to it automatically yet.

About this baseline

For a 75 kg Intermediate rider with a Neutral style, the baseline for the Yamaha WR250F 2025 at ISDE Grândola shifts 8 of 10 computed settings away from the OEM standard. The biggest shifts: Fork height in clamps 5 mm (-3 vs OEM), Rebound 9 clicks (+1 vs OEM). All values are computed from OEM defaults and your rider and condition factors.

Value provenance: OEM = manufacturer specification · verified = confirmed by an expert · reviewed = editorially reviewed reference · community = confirmed by the community (median of at least three public setups) · computed = automatically derived by the LAISA engine. Automatically extracted and unconfirmed values never appear on public pages.
