No they havent changed much, but before ktm going super enduro specific the yz was reguarded as one of the only bikes that works out of the box for mx, dez, enduro, its comes with what is still considered the best stock suspension ever made, and many many moded bikes never reach the plushness of a stock yz250.Has yamaha changed anything on that yz in 16 years?
I really don't think I want or need a 250 2t. Maayyybe just because I live at some elevation but those little 150s are so damn light.
Pretty sure they're lighter than Garys ebike.
It easy put it into 2nd gear hold throttle about 2/3 of the way open lean way the hell forward. You may need to lower the seat height if I recall right...The last thing I want is some ported out race gas liability with suspension I have no place on.
I know what I'm doing with mountainbikes. With dirtbikes I'm coming in from the bottom so trying to keep it simple. As a reference, my main goal is: learn how to shift
I did a very covert Sur-ron ride on Maui last week through ranch land and into the national park. It was absolutely epic and couldn't have been done on a MTB, e-MTB, or normal moto.Actually more for some super rural spots in more central PA, we have a cabin up that way w/ so many miles of trails. For some reason the state won't get their head out of their asses and expand recreation in those areas beyond hunting and fishing. Problem solved w/ e moto.
I got a $90 e-chainsaw at Walmart that I used heavily on trails last summer. Never let me down and fits in a backpack.i've been looking into one, what are you using?
I need to sell my 300xc this summer cuz I never use it anymore. Road trip to Breckenridge? MTBer's special with auto clutch, MTB style brakes, and lowering bushing.The last thing I want is some ported out race gas liability with suspension I have no place on.

best name for a moto wrap company ever.... At first I thought it was just some dude with a sense of humor. Turns out that dude owns a business.Good catch! It also has racer decals, so you probably upped your skills 300%.
If a tuk tuk is a custom flatbed built for carrying snowmobiles then yes.@kidwoo are you driving a tuk tuk
idk you might be able to get a sled in a tuk tuk. would probably have to get creative.If a tuk tuk is a custom flatbed built for carrying snowmobiles then yes.
nice bike!suck it industry
got the linkage
had to get a track bike but whatever. Bigger tank and endurpo tire came with it. Cost just a little bit more than a trust fork
@Lelandjt: let's talk about those brakes
We were bumping along just fine nov/dec/jan and then it just quit. We just had the driest february on record (literally zero precip) and like 50 degree weather. I've been riding dapeach's bike the last month.nice bike!

I literally just ordered some vinyl to replace that with.........now you got me thinking I just need a smaller sticker to go on top of it.#Foreverkidwoo
I installed a Rekluse autoclutch, moved the front brake line over to the left lever, and got a hose from Speigler to connect the right lever to the rear brake. It would be better to have the rear brake on the left side so it's not the same hand as the throttle, but that's not how my brain is wired.@Lelandjt: let's talk about those brakes

God, I hope that shirt is a proper wife beater, and he has on Oakley blades.Hopefully technical jorts will also suffice for old man MX
Did you tell her it was her own goddam fault for buying a Trek?My lightweight female buddy just wrote off a Trek Slash frame because their stupid ass KnockBlock feature failed and the fork crown smashed the downtube. Apparently when you make a frame that relies on the KnockBlock to stop it destroying itself, and the tiny tab that makes KnockBlock work breaks off and does sweet FA - well your warranty is voided because only a crash could have done that.
From a buddies slash. No crash just normal banging around. Trek said the same thing...only possible in a crash.

They are on a good Trek to lose and not to attract new customers. Always wonder what people run these companies. Ever heard of Net Promoter Score?From a buddies slash. No crash just normal banging around. Trek said the same thing...only possible in a crash. F Trek.

That´s the worst excuse i´ve heard in a long time. Seriously, at this point they´re pretty much admitting they know their shit breaks in a crash, which is basically the one situation you really need that feature. Like, yeah it works if you use it normally, but as soon as it is required to actually do its job, it stops working.From a buddies slash. No crash just normal banging around.

When will people learn? The power of marketing these folks do is really strong.From a buddies slash. No crash just normal banging around. Trek said the same thing...only possible in a crash. F Trek.

Hunh, I have one (brand new, ‘20), and it looks just like a wolftooth clone. What don’t you like? Can you post a pic of it?Race Face Turbine R dropper lever: What in the actual fuck? Shit at walmart has more quality.
This is probably a 19, there’s no way it’s a wolftooth or loam clone.Hunh, I have one (brand new, ‘20), and it looks just like a wolftooth clone. What don’t you like? Can you post a pic of it?
The vertical swing one is terrible. The horizontal swing one has been fine for me...This is probably a 19, there’s no way it’s a wolftooth or loam clone.
I liked this one better...Ok, this is bizarre.
how long will these guys last?
