Today went well. The bike didn't need a single adjustment save for a few bolts getting torqued and adjusting the brake lever up. All in all, couldn't ask for more from the maiden voyage. This is my 3rd or 4th YZ250, and this one is by far the hardest hitting. The PC pipe combo with T2 is unreal and this thing revs to the moon. I will not be touching the carb again as this thing is jetted absolutely perfectly. I have not ridden a 2 stroke in nearly 5 years. I need to lose about 30 pounds as well...

It's friday night, Alice in Chains is blaring in my garage, and I am 99.5% ready to go ride tomorrow. Sorting through the carb on re-assembly, when I turned the gas on, it would piss fuel everywhere. Found the first cause was a piece of the needle that most likely degraded over 20 years, cleaned, re-assembled, bent the float, and voila, good as new. After that, try as I might I could not get the bike to start. Tried fresh gas, tried a new spark plug, nothing. Finally after brainstorming and reading countless old threads, I unplugged the kill switch...

Makes me wonder how literally everything can be broken at the same time on some people's bikes. Nice work on swapping the good motor into the good frame. Hopefully you have access to a vapor blaster to help with the cleanup and can get a little bit of return on your investment (seat time!).

DO NOT LET PERFECTION BECOME THE ENEMY OF PROGRESS I've yoinked the ol' motor and swapped in the 05. The full frame scrub and love will come at a date yet to be determined, I want to ride this thing. Looking at this bottom end requires a penicillin shot.

Wish I could take credit for these but they were made by a friend of mine

Got few carbon pieces in. Initially bought the side panel guards as I've had them before and they fit really nice and work great. Then I saw the carbon tank cover and thought that'd look cool so snagged that too. Overall 10/10 quality and fit. Love me some cmt carbon goodness.

Not dog pups, but I first encountered these guys on a bicycle ride a couple of weeks ago. Went back with my (electric) motorcycle and was able to sneak up on them and get some pics and videos.

Is the Shawn Ryan podcast legit enough? He’s former military and cia contractor. A lot of folks gobbled up what Bongino said prior to office and look where that shit bag is now.

I actually have a set of yz pegs on my 96 cr 125 Honda guy direct bolt up tip.
