Hmm, 2010 ear? Are you sure they are Cone Valves and not SXS?

Likely your oil pump idler gear should be replaced with the updated part number. The new gear is of a different/stiffer type of plastic. I think KTM/Husqvarna updated the part number in 2019 or 2020.

As long as it's a tight fit. I know Primary Drive has larger pins than most. Not sure about FP.

Can anyone tell me the difference between 4-stroke race packing and the repacking pillow? I race, but I also hate repacking mufflers because of the fibers so I want something that's going to last at least 50hrs. If anyone has some alternative non-irritating ... more »

Oh boy

Looks like Kreft makes the WP body. I'm not aware of any aftermarket body that's available for a YZ250F. It looks like SDI offers Kashima of your OEM body. https://www.kreftmoto.com/new-products-1/kreft-moto-premium-shock-body https://www.suspensiondirect.com/shop/kashrcu ... more »

TCS Powersports/Todd Davis. Former right hand man to Paul Thede @ Racetech. Excellent tuner. They might have a Kashima body for the yZ250F. I'm not affiliated with Todd, but I've ridden some of his WP stuff and it was excellent.

The body on a WP shock is something that can be replaced rather than repaired. TCS has a very affordable Kashima coated new body for WP shocks. That's what I'm putting on mine at hte next service.

Yes, KTMs are very reliable compared to what's written in the owners manual or compared to other brands. A lot of that can be thrown off by poor maintenance or too many hours. Most people should be overwhelmingly happy with 75 hours before engine work ... more »

I'd want $350 shipped with the front axle. They are about $100 for me to ship. Otherwise, I could sell them locally (SoCal)

Are you talking about the earth strap? Those go bad, but can be cleaned up. As Paul says, seems like an incorrect diagnosis to me, unless you are from the tropics.

The 2005 and 2006 YZ forks were a similar upper clamp diameter, I think. The newer 2007+ models went to a smaller clamping diameter. I have some of the older 2006-size forks that will fit your clamps.

Easier to get pants with a good heat guard that extends into your boot and wraps around the front far enough. I have a 2018 and kept burning my pants until I got some Fly Kinetic.

Yes, please. I have the 2017.5 AER fork that needs to have the lugs removed.

The only thing I'd like is a little bit more top-end and hook-up (hard pack) compared to the four-strokes, IMHO.

I just found out about Surron through Ballard's off-road Instagram page. Geoff Ballard has done a lot of testing for various manufacturers, including Yamaha. Geoff seemed to like the Surron. https://www.instagram.com/tv/CLqvxujFmN6/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link ... more »
