The yz 250 is all 95% of riders need to have 100% of fun.

The YZ 250 is really the ultimate platform for anyone that wants to be competitive and have fun either off road or at the Track. It’s Budget friendly, reliable and still looks sooo good.

Love simple builds. I have a 2024 yz250. Heavier flywheel, pro circuit exhaust and v-force is all it needs 💪

[straighttimestirrups]

Chad Reed has said his favorite bike of all time was his 2004 Yz250.

I’d love to see you guys do a test of a 2004 YZ250 Steel Frame with SSS Forks and Shocks vs a 2024 YZ250 Aluminum Frame!

[MrJeffharper]

Love my YZ250. I especially love how affordable parts are. I just did the top end on mine and it was $122 for a complete OEM Top-end kit.

Thanks for the detailed info on the yz 250 I'm a vet rider I'm going to do a 2024 yz 250 build so this was very informative thanks again God bless. Matt ky

I bought a new one in 2016 and it remains one of the very best bikes I have ever ridden.

[barkeep]

Lots of ppl harp on its lack of updates to the motor being mostly unchangedsince 99. I see that as the yz's biggest strength to those on a budget. For parts, aftermarket and stock, fb marketplace and ebay are your friends. Plus all the shared knowledge out there when you need to fix it.

[MaxPowerr]

I have an 04 steel frame yz250 and it’s showroom fresh and rips!!

[Yzfiftay]

My 1994 yz250 keeps up with new bikes all day.. long live the yz!🤘

The trees swaying in the background are heavenly

[johnnywilhite]

When are you going to test a HP Race Development YZ 250. Lesher put one of his in a 450 sx main Make it happen !!!

[Coopdegras]

Sounds on the button! Not too tinny but just right 👌🏼

[straighttimestirrups]

The only real mod a YZ125/250 engine really needs is an Apex Head spec’d for your fuel of choice! The absolute best $250 you can spend on a YZ engine!

STIC Super X carb for running down 450's. For control I use the G2 slowest turn cam on my 200SX. Riders that ride it say its faster than their 350 and KX250 smoker. Very linear, but response and power exceed porting and mapping😮 The original and less powerful 90's version had Pro Rich Taylor state in a mag article that his stock CR250 race bike was faster than the works bikes he tested for Honda.

[Newso-mb]

Can you do a shootout between the steel frame model and alloy frame model that’s about the only thing you haven’t done with the YZs

[Rubeless]

Pillow grips, instant arm pump for me.

[ericandrews]

[marcozuffada]
