Interested in replaced the pegs on my YZ 250 2-stroke with some newer YZ pegs. Does anyone know if the 4-stroke pegs from the newer 4-strokes will fit?

I've owned a 5x8 haulmark enclosed trailer for almost 10 years and the last couple I towed with a 4 cylinder Subaru forester and it handled the trailer with 2 bikes without any issues. I think the dry weight of my trailer is around 800lbs.
Just like the title says. I have a 2006 YZ 250 2-stroke and I'm looking for new clamps and noticed some OEM sets off the newer YZ 250F and 450F are going for good prices. Does anyone know if they are the same offset and whether a full set would mount right up on my bike?

I'm might be purchasing a 2014 KTM 350SXF this weekend, but wanted to know if any of the newer 16 plastics would fit on the 2014? Can anyone confirm whether the fenders, shrouds, fork guards, or number-plates from the 16 will mount to a 2014?

I'm rebuilding my engine on my 2006 YZ 250, and I'm trying to install my transmission, but I'm having an issue with the shaft cam alignment. Once everything is installed I'm unable to shift and it seems everything gets stuck. Does it matter what direction the shift drum is installed in the picture (see image)? Is it because the engine...

Yes, I was able to get the bike back together over the weekend and everything seems to be working correctly so far. I think when I was originally trying to install the drum I was off by 180 degrees, so making sure the hole was in the right location did the trick. Thanks again for all the help!
Yes, I did find these on thumpertalk looking for some directions this morning, thank you! Mine is set exactly the same right now though, I just didn't have any pics this morning... do you remember how you were able to get this back together and working correctly? I haven't been able to find any answer as to the hole alignment...
Thanks for the help! I'll double check that the forks are all in the correct slots, but it's the position of the shift drum that I couldn't seem to figure out whether it was right. Does it look like it's off by 180 degrees? or does it even matter what position the hole is in when I slide everything into...

Hey guys, I'm thinking about picking up an 06 RM 250 with very low hours on it, but not sure if this is a good deal or not. The bike has just been completely gone through, and includes a new hinson cluch set up, new exhaust, chain, sprockets, skid plate, oversize front rotor, carbon fiber guards, ti-footpegs, and a few...

I'm interested in the triple clamp and boots, do you have any pictures you could share?
It's located in Massachusetts, so I'm not sure how our prices compare to the rest of the US, but nowadays bikes in the $3-$4K range don't seem too bad. The bike also comes with the original RC plastic which looks in almost new condition, the bike has supposed only had the top end changed once, and currently has 2 hours...
