yamahuh Added a reply to Little Guy Landed on at LACR
2/20/2023 6:34pm The tracks can only do so much to prevent accidents. The parents must be involved and assess risk at every practice and track. Stuff will happen, it just does but you can minimize risk. I was at a practice track w/o flaggers when a little guy was learning to ride and kept stopping in the valley between doubles on a...

11/12/2019 7:43am The 0% introductory rate on a CC is the way to go if you don't have the funds and pay it off before the intro period ends. Never pay interest...

yamahuh Started a new thread YZ250 2006 Former Pro Bike
4/30/2018 10:51am I bought this bike in 2006 from Tom Hofmaster, at the time the bike had (3) arena cross races on it. The bike has been stored and ridden 2-3 times a year for the last 12 years. It has pro circuit suspension and was told "the engine was cleaned up and needed race gas". I run C12, changed air filter...

yamahuh Started a new thread Plantar Fasciitis / Torn Calf
12/27/2017 1:34pm Anyone suffering from this? I tore my calf muscle after landing real hard (riding on the balls of my feet) over a year ago. Now the calf muscle is healed but I've coincidentally I've developed PF in my foot that seems like it won't go away. Anyone dealing with this? Tell me what worked for you. Thanks, Yamahuh

8/23/2017 11:22pm Read the above post 50 times, it's spot on. Stay technical out of school for a few years and then you can decide if you want a more customer focused work. I'm an IE in the O&G sector.

1/22/2016 7:37pm I'm calling in the morning, definitely drive up from Corpus. Thanks to owners or whomever is responsible for re-opening the facility. It will be awesome... Yamahuh

12/18/2015 10:13am I'm definitely interested, I was riding at 3 Palms every weekend and since moving to Corpus Christi have not found a good track within 3 hour drive.

10/19/2015 7:49pm If Cycle Ranch is closed...does anyone have suggestions for another track? I just moved to Corpus Christi and need to find something within 2 hours drive. Thanks
Everyone always says to be honest about your ability..... I purchased a legitimate former Pro bike, PC had worked the suspension and it was set for a 160# Pro. I'm 190# and a C rider on a good day, yet this is the best suspension I have ever ridden. Plush, resists bottoming, and can really squat down in the corners...
yamahuh Added a reply to LEIB - MXON - GOFUND ME
9/5/2015 12:14pm I agree with the raffle strategy, possibly get a dealer involved and raffle a new bike, gear, etc. The excess goes towards funding the travel expenses. It needs to be something the average rider can appreciate and possibly benefit from; otherwise focus on industry only contacts and being a Pro that shouldn't be difficult to arrange trip costs. Just asking...
yamahuh Started a new thread Suspension Help
6/19/2015 3:28am I have an 06 YZ125 that I put YZ250 springs on (I weigh 190). I have recently rebuilt the forks. In rolling whoops the bike uses too much travel, when skipping/wheeling to the next whoop the suspension will bottom, same for landing off big jumps. The bottoming isn't teeth rattling, but it shouldn't be using all the stroke for smooth...

6/16/2015 5:58pm I think your're right, springs are needed. Thanks
yamahuh Added a reply to Another rider lost, and decision to hang it up
6/5/2015 8:32pm IMO if you're studying engineering you need to focus on that and complete the program. If it's an undergrad 26 isn't too late but not on track either, just saying. Once you have the education/career/life/finances all falling into place you can get back into riding. Determining priorities is the tough part...
yamahuh Added a reply to Little Kids on the "Big Track" or even the "Vet Track"...
6/3/2015 7:31pm If they are beginner or learning to ride the speed difference is too great and should be on a kid track. Had a girl on a 50 learning to ride in GA and would stop in the valley between doubles and you could not see her. I went and talked with the 'mini dad' who seemed ticked at first, a...
yamahuh Added a reply to 2006 YZ250 Cylinder Head Squish Band Rework for C12
5/16/2015 10:21am The YZ's (125 & 250) IMO both need race fuel; as stock they are borderline with pump fuel. I have used C12 for a long time and never had any issues. Also...OEM pistons in both, again no issues. That pic looks like from Rio..
yamahuh Started a new thread Anyone have both KTM150 & YZ125?
4/18/2015 7:28pm Does anyone have both or have had both and what's your opinion? Is the 150 significantly stronger? I'm open to all opinions... I have the YZ and with jetting/gearing it does well but being 190 I'm too heavy. I'm considering mod'ing to a 144 to get some extra power. I like the stock YZ as it's bullet proof. I ride...

yamahuh Started a new thread Places to Ride near Darwin or NT
3/11/2015 6:41pm Hey Guys, Can anyone list some places to ride in the NT or close to Darwin? I'm mainly interested in Motocross / SX tracks; however I'm open to trails also. Do the tracks have websites? Any information would be appreciated. Yamahuh
