We caught up with Adam Bac ahead of The Roof of Africa 2025 to talk about his role in shaping the all-new YZ250X-HE. His experience in some of the world’s toughest terrain played a key role in its development — and he proved its capability firsthand, taking on the Maluti Mountains and securing an impressive 27th overall in the Gold Class.

Proud to have his expertise behind this project, and even prouder to see the YZ250X-HE performing exactly where it’s built to excel.
