The 2-stroke thread

I did. I blasted it for an hour on the same black plug. However the weather was very hot and very humid so I didnt get the real results i was looking for. Bike did not stutter or give any performance issues.
Plug was still black however when i roll on the throttle there was no bog down low like i used to get occasionally.
I was riding in sand pits today so it was harder than usual to get the front end up.
I will keep it at these settings for the next ride and see what happens. There was also a little spooge on the muffler when i finished but figure this is due to the hot day and high humidity...

P.S. even though I only moved it one clip position, i was terrified that i was going to be running too lean.

 

2006 YZ250. Original owner. She has been good to me.

 

^Good year. You have pretty much all the updates and before they went to the stupid "euro" spec that gave them all long silencers

 

Psh who keeps the stock silencer anyway

 

Yeah, I am actually somewhat glad that nothing big has been changed since then...therefore I dont have a reason or temptation to get a new one. Although the '15 KTM 250SX has caught my eye...a few times.

I kept mine...never really had much of a reason to change it. I saw no point in making it louder or quieter. I also didnt want to change anything that could affect the powerband. I like the way it is stock. It doesnt however have the obnoxious Euro one or whatever.

 

I'm converting religions. Selling a DR-Z 400e and going to look for a used smoker between the typical price range $1500-2500, 2000-2002 for green sticker purposes in CA.

Been riding for a few yrs and need something sharper and precise vs a hammer. The DR-Z served its purpose, and has a strong reliable motor.

Looking at RM 250, YZ 250, something in the range

 

I see, I had to upgrade to get the spark arrestor.

 

Yeah there was one time I considered it because I wanted to go for a ride in the mountains but never did.

 

Goodbye TM300, Hello Beta 300RR

 

I ditched my long silencer and pipe for a FMF fatty pipe and shorty silencer. I like the way it runs. Like stock just better.

The long silencer is pretty good though. Still have the stock stuff in a box in the garage.

 

First ride on the Beta went with my buddy who bought the TM.

 

Probably posted this pic before but I'll do it again.

 

The stock pipe is known to be very good on the yz. I'm currently running the fmf gnarley and turbine core II silencer. It's like a freaking tractor, sooo awesome in the woods.

 

I have no idea on the performance, its just one of my weird preferences. I never liked silencers that stuck out past the number plate, and now the new 4 strokes make the plate so small it doesnt cover any of the pipe, I dont like those at all. The number plates on yours look good because the silencer is still hidden behind the plate

 

well this happened yesterday.. Overshot a tabletop to flat yesterday at a track and thankfully i broke the linkage not my ankles.. Haha

 

That 5hundy power what year/make is the chassis?

 

noooo it was the 125 lol. the 500 is sitting till someone buys it

this is a 2002 yz125

 

I have the FMF pipe and long & short silencer. I prefer the short silencer. I'm trying to locate a oem stock honda pipe & silencer for my 01 500, keep me in mind if anyone comes across one.

 

OK just finished another ride. Did I get it? 32-1 Clip position #2, air screw 1.5 turns out. Stock jetting.

 

Same plug less flash
