Snowmobile Yamaha Bravo 250 T (BR 250 T) • Snowmobile Yamaha Bravo 250 T

Yamaha Bravo 250 is a reliable and affordable snowmobile made in Japan. The model is perfect for beginners, as it has a simplified design and is easy to operate. Low fuel consumption allows you to cover long distances without refueling. Harsh conditions are no problem for the Yamaha Bravo. The snowmobile can be used both in thaws and in severe frosts in deep snow. Wide tracks and low weight allow the equipment to pass through the most difficult places, even with a trailer.

Appearance and equipment

Externally, the model looks angular, but this is due to the fact that manufacturers adhere to the style of the predecessors of the Yamaha Bravo 250 T. The first snowmobiles of the Bravo series appeared back in 1982. Global restyling took place in 1992. From that moment on, the design of the bike did not change anymore. It is the familiar features that distinguish these winter motorcycles from other vehicles. The consistency of the design only speaks of its efficiency and high quality.

In terms of design, the snowmobile is very simple: a durable steel frame, a reliable two-stroke engine, suspension on semi-elliptical springs and a manual starter. Only the speedometer and odometer are displayed on the dashboard. The Bravo 250 does not have reverse gear - its low weight allows you to lift and rearrange the snow bike manually by grasping the tubular “rail” or trunk railing. The parking brake uses a brake lever on the handlebar, which is secured with a simple latch.

The basic configuration includes a primer (additional fuel injection pump), which allows fuel to be delivered directly to the receiving manifold. Thanks to this, it is possible to start the engine in any weather conditions. On the left behind the glass there is a variator covered with a casing, on the right there is a capacious gas tank and brake. In the engine compartment there is a small box with road tools and an emergency start cord.

Increasing the lift on the Yamaha Bravo 400

The weight of the snowmobile is only 175 kg. This is almost two times less than most other motorbikes with similar characteristics. This light weight facilitates the process of delivering the vehicle to its destination.

Bravo 250 T is the leader in trunk capacity. The snowmobile's cargo qualities are excellent. It is capable of towing a sled with luggage up to 550 kg. The maximum speed of the vehicle is 80 km/h.

What is it best suited for?

The Yamaha Bravo 250 snowmobile will be an ideal companion for small winter hikes, on vacation and for walks in the wild. Most likely, the engine capacity will not be enough to carry out heavy work with the trailer. This snowmobile is perfect for beginners. Driving skills will appear very quickly due to the simplicity of the design. Therefore, a snowmobile is best suited for learning riding.

Do-it-yourself carburetor adjustment

  1. Unscrew the spark plugs and make sure they are in good condition. If they are flooded or have heavy carbon deposits, the part must be replaced.
  2. Set the free play of the throttle valve drive. The working play should be at the level of 1 - 2 mm.
  3. Clean the air filter. The amount of air supplied depends on the condition of the element. Do not adjust idle speed with a clogged filter.

The idle speed is adjusted using two screws - one is responsible for quality, and the second for quantity. Initially, all adjustments are made on a cold engine. In the warmed-up state, the final calibration is performed. Quality screw (yellow, made of bronze). To adjust it, you need to tighten it completely and then unscrew it exactly 1.25 turns. Next, you need to warm up the motor and use the quantity screw (white, plastic) to set the minimum number of revolutions at which the motor runs without interruption (usually 900 - 950 rpm).

Important! Adjusting the idle speed of the Yamaha Viking 540 snowmobile, after running in or for other operating conditions (driving in the mountains or in severe frost), is performed purely individually. There is no universal screw position for all conditions!

Note. The idle speed setting is only relevant up to ¼ throttle lift. Therefore, to reduce fuel consumption it is necessary to select less efficient jets. But this must be done extremely carefully, since a strong reduction in the cross-section is fraught with depletion of the mixture and, as a result, frequent overheating of the power unit.

Yamaha Bravo is at the limit.

Participant

The history of the acquisition of a snowmobile goes back to 2010.
I then decided to buy myself some equipment for fishing. First of all, I began to study various motorized towing vehicles and pneumatic vehicles, and to be honest, I also looked at Khivus, but for some reason the prospect of selling a kidney to buy this device did not evoke positive emotions.

It’s worth noting that last season I had the opportunity to ride Bravik on Onego. An unpretentious and economical, and most importantly, INEXPENSIVE device is forever imprinted in my memory.

December, Onego is covered with a thin crust of the first ice, the fishermen are flocking to the first ice, and meanwhile I give a small cutlet of money to the cash register window of the official Yamaha dealer in our city and the very next day I become an absolutely happy person.

Here he is, handsome, so black, tiny, but already loved. This is my first snowball. And NG is just around the corner and there’s no way to test it

I had to be patient and here is the long-awaited first departure:

The impressions from the rides are only the most positive. I climbed into meter-long powder, overcame steep slopes, while squeezing the gas only to half, like running in.

Even before leaving, I installed ski extensions from Lynx. To do this, I had to weld 2 long studs on each ridge, instead of the old ones. The front and rear studs fit without modification. I also had to finish it all off with a hairdryer.

The first long trip was so full of impressions that I still dream about it! We went to Klimentsi, which is 45 km away on ice from the city. There was no road, but there was evidence that the ice was already good.

Along the way, some nuances became clear:

1. The “float” overalls are quite airy in the neck area. 2. The muzzle of the face cannot withstand oncoming gusts of wind and snow, which is why it gets very cold. 3. The second rider needs a backrest or an extended seat.

Well, okay, we got there with stops and let’s fish: Let’s sit for 5 minutes - it doesn’t bite, why sit? We're flying to another place.

And on one of the holes an unexpected surprise awaited me:

Here they are, my beauties:

By the way, I am not at all moved by the fact that there is no reverse gear. The two of us quite easily throw the Bravik onto the trailer, it weighs 170 kg after all, and even if it gets stuck in the snow, I just pick it up and move it to a more convenient place. They recently said on one forum that they don’t hold pikes at arm’s length like that, it’s like photoshop

That's why I don't worry about the presence of reverse gear. If anything happens, I’ll move it just right with my left hand. Just kidding of course

During the trip, my baby ate about 15-20 liters of gasoline, diluted 1 to 100 with Yamalub oil.

Enough of the lyrics. Now tech. questions:

1. I want to install additional. rollers.

I'm not a millionaire and have only a small bag of money, and that's the last one. We have one roller that costs 1200, a bearing 1200, a bracket 5000. I feel that an analog bearing can also be installed for 150 rubles, but what about the rollers and bracket? I read in other threads that they can be ordered somewhere inexpensively.

2. What else can be done to reduce the load on the suspension when riding together?

Traveling alone is not an option. Of course, I’m an egoist, but to a certain extent, especially since at the test drive a year ago, Bravik carried 3 people on himself and 2 more in a sleigh. Bravik was good

3. What is the easiest seat to make for a second passenger? Maybe put it from another snowman, or just add a back?
