Yamaha XMAX 250 generation history
- 2006–2009 · 1st generation (Europe): The first 250 of the XMAX series; some sources give its launch as 2004/2005.
- 2010–2013 · Facelift: Revised model compliant with Euro 3.
- 2014–2016 · 2nd generation (Europe): Sharper, slimmer new bodywork (YP250R).
- 2017–2022 · 3rd generation: The same new bodywork as the XMAX 300, Indonesia-built Blue Core 250 engine, ABS and traction control. In Europe the 250 gave way to the 300; the 250 continued in Asia and some markets.

Yamaha XMAX 250 known problems
- Recall: camshaft retaining bolt (Japan): In July 2025 a campaign was opened in Japan for 3 models (10,418 units in total), including the XMAX250 built between October 2017 and August 2023, because the camshaft plate bolt could work loose; the engine may stall and fail to restart. The plate and bolt are being renewed. The scope for vehicles sold in Turkey should be asked using the chassis number.
When buying a used Yamaha XMAX 250
- On 2017–2023 production, ask using the chassis number whether the camshaft bolt campaign was carried out.
- European-origin pre-2017 250s have the old bodywork and a different engine; compare the year in the advert with the generation.
- On 2023+ models, test that the TFT/smartphone connectivity works.
