For riders looking to unlock additional performance and tailor engine character to specific track conditions, Athena has developed the new Big Bore Cylinder Kit, engineered to increase displacement, improve power output, and deliver a more responsive riding experience.\nEngineered for Higher Performance\nThis latest-generation Big Bore Cylinder Kit represents a major evolution over the previous version. Every component has been redesigned and optimized to improve power, reliability, and overall rideability, making it suitable for both competitive racing and serious off-road use.\nRedesigned Cylinder for Maximum Output\nThe aluminum cylinder features a completely revised port layout developed to optimize gas flow and combustion efficiency. The updated internal geometry delivers stronger mid-range and top-end performance while maintaining excellent low-rpm response.\nHigh-Efficiency Cylinder Head Design\nThe newly developed cylinder head has been engineered to optimize compression ratio and combustion chamber efficiency. The result is improved throttle response, enhanced combustion quality, and more precise power delivery throughout the rpm range.\nAdjustable Squish and Power Delivery Configurations\nEngine behavior can be customized by adjusting squish clearance and the resulting cylinder height. To provide multiple setup options, the kit includes different cylinder base gaskets that allow riders to fine-tune engine characteristics according to riding style and track conditions.\nHARD Configuration\nAn extremely aggressive and explosive power delivery designed for sand tracks, supercross, and situations requiring maximum acceleration. \nMEDIUM Configuration\nA more progressive low-rpm power delivery with virtually no reduction in peak power, providing an excellent balance between performance and rideability.\nSOFT Configuration\nA smoother and more controllable power delivery at low and mid rpm, improving traction and rider confidence on technical terrain.\n\nHigh-Performance Cast Piston\nThe newly developed cast piston reduces reciprocating mass and improves engine responsiveness. Lower inertia contributes to quicker acceleration and enhanced overall engine efficiency.\nOptimized Exhaust Valve System\nThe redesigned exhaust valve components work in conjunction with the new cylinder port timing to improve high-rpm breathing while maintaining strong low-end torque and rideability.\nComplete Kit for Professional-Level Performance\nLike all Athena cylinder kits, this package includes premium-quality gaskets and components designed to ensure durability, reliability, and consistent performance under the most demanding racing conditions.\nUnlock the Full Potential of Your YZ250\nThe Athena Big Bore Cylinder Kit is the ultimate performance upgrade for Yamaha YZ250 riders seeking more displacement, stronger acceleration, and customizable power delivery. Developed for demanding racers and performance enthusiasts, it delivers the perfect combination of power, control, and reliability.","brand":"ATHENA","offers":[{"title":"CYLINDER KIT ATHENA BIG BORE 72MM 293CC YAMAHA YZ250","offer_id":67944768700518,"sku":"P400485100104","price":2999.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/1055\/0374\/files\/b10bb228e39c37b20142c9ad462c06e2.jpg?v=1793998049","url":"https:\/\/shop.hukahonda.co.nz\/products\/cylinder-kit-athena-big-bore-72mm-293cc-yamaha-yz250","provider":"Huka Honda","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
