Is this a good example of riding a 2 stroke YZ250 for a 52 year old man who weighs 240 pounds?

NO Sir… this is how MOST 52 year old / 240 pound men / “I did this when I was 20” ride a YZ250! 🤪

You are doing it the way we all hope we look and sound when we ride! I am 58 and own a YZ250 & 300SX and every time I go ride I hope to NOT ride like a guy that shoulda went bowling! 😎 👍❗️

Keep twistin’ the twisty thing and havin’ fun!

Gawd what I would give to have the 1980 RM400 that I had way back then! 
I probably remember that bike to be WAY better than it actually was, but it would be SO fun as a vintage racer now! 

I had SO many bikes in those glorious old golden days of Moto that would be fun to ride in the vintage class now! I know there are lots of old guys just like me that feel the same way too!

The same track, a few years back, only in the opposite direction. My friend is driving, we have been driving together since childhood. He no longer drives after back surgery. That motorcycle is available for 5000 Eur, I think maybe buy it and ride it in the retro class, but we have several good riders there, champions of the USSR and Latvia, we still have to fight for the podium.

And, yeah, this is a 250 frame with 465 engine.

Cheapest to USA is 300 Eur both ways, need to be preordered. Regular is 1300 Eur both ways.

I'm also thinking about showing my daughter the American tracks and having her ride there a bit. I have never been to the US.
