I’ve got a 2017 YZF250, bought with very low hours. Had it for about 15 hours now and with it being my first 250 I’ve loved it. But my friend who’s been riding for a while he ago and he said it’s lacking acceleration, and must admit a lot of people are leaving me on straights (also 250f) and I’m sort of wondering if maybe I’m missing a trick.
Could it be my gearing? Could it be that the bikes been mapped before I bought it and the map doesn’t work for me? I’ve also heard nothing good about the air intake cover as it doesn’t allow enough air? Or do I just need to full throttle it in second gear haha.
It struggles clearing jumps right out of corners too, just like I can’t build the speed up by my friend on a 125 can do them. He’s ridden mine and says the same thing, just doesn’t have enough in it to get the speed.
Sorry if this sounds winey I just want a bit of help.

If I was a guessing man though, I would think it was the mapping like you had said. But not too sure
