Hey guys
I was going to post a thread about my new bike when i got it. But after thinking about it i have no idea how to ride a 2 stroke so i decided against that idea.
Anyway this is my new bike(This is the closest thing to a girlfriend il get) a 2005 Yz250.
You would never think that it is an 05 but boy is it clean.
I brought it off of a guy nearly 5 hours away and he was nice enough to bring it halfway for me.
He had it advertised for 3700 and after some talking and what not i got him down to 3000.
Went and picked it up and my jaw dropped when i saw it. Far out i love the look of it.
Had leaking fork seals when i got it. But no biggie.
Had a complete motor rebuild only 3 hours before i got it.( now has 11)
Anyway first ride thoughts.
HOLY MOLY FAR OUT. Please excuse me while i lift the front wheel when you hit powerband.
It has taken a lot of getting used to going from a 290 4 stroke to this.
But now that i have ridden it for a few hours i love it. Tractors out of corners, Tap the clutch and give it a bit and the rear wheel lights up everywhere.
Im not gonna lie i wet myself a bit hitting band on the lip of a jump and the front end shooting up.
So easy to throw around in the air too, much nicer then my old Yz.
Best part is this bike cost me $100 as i sold my 04 Yz290f for $2900
