Do you ride during the Red Sticker season? I thought about buying an 02' until I realized that Hollister Hills is pretty brutal during the summer and I only tend to ride there during the winter wetness (I'm a Hollister local)
All I can say, make sure you look for a clean bike. Buying one to "fix" up tends to be more off a checkbook nightmare.
Yeah i know that was an 03 figured it was only a matter time before someone pointed it out haha
What about the green sticker concern here in CA?
I have no idea on the green sticker thingy as i'm from sunny sarf east london!
Any 2003 and newer competition model (one's without smog regulation emission equipment) are regulated to a "Red" registration sticker thru the CA DMV. Red sticker motorcycles are not permitted to ride at California State Off-Road Parks, usually from April-May until October.
Pit Row
Here is a guy in MN that is looking to part out a 2008 YZ 250. Thought I would pass it along in case anyone was looking for anything.
For those not in the bayarea or NorCal, prices are significantly higher here for the 02 than elsewhere. $1500-2K for not so fresh ones and up to $3k + for ones fresh and modded for offroad racing. Other than the sea of orange at D36 offroad races, the YZ is next most popular bike in my experience (very distant 2nd). The 02 can share or be retrofitted with anything from the latest YZ... and is green sticker. Hence its value.
I spent $1700 for mine a couple years back and immediately stripped it down and split the cases before rebuilding it into my offroad bike. Friends not in NorCal thought it was crazy, but thats just the market for this years YZ. Yeh, I would like an 06+ one and can easilly find one for what I have into my 02.... but as the OP knows... it limits your riding opportunities during the summer green sticker season in the Bay Area.
Good luck on your search!
