A mate of mine who rides a WR250F, and not very often, threw a leg over to see what all the fuss is about. I’m not sure what it is but I could get into the rut and just nail the gas time and time again. The bike is modern and the graphics that come standard are top quality. A two-stroke draws a crowd and every time it was on the track my mates stopped to listen to the thing scream off its head. These are my five initial thoughts on the YZ250:

A GYTR pipe and muffler start the project we’ll test a heavier flywheel weight and a range of neat little bits and pieces. Using products only from the Yamaha genuine products catalogue, we will begin the transformation from awesome to super-awesome. Stage one of the Project YZ250 two-stroke is a full-GYTR build. The bike is light and easy to muscle around despite the aggressive nature of the power.ĭue to its light weight, it stops quickly and as you become aware of its powerful stopping ability you can push deeper and deeper into turns. Gear changes need to be precise and clutch use efficient fine throttle control is important so as not to land square on your arse.

My mate Grant and I swapped bikes over and over, each fighting for a lap on the two-stroke. I’ve never ridden a bike for so long with a smile on my dial. Fast forward a week and we were headed to my girlfriend’s parents’ farm for some grass-track fun with some friends. Then I hit deadline and sat staring at this beauty who was just begging me to throw a leg over her. I picked up the YZ as soon as it was ready. Let me introduce you to the new love in my life: the new-look Yamaha YZ250.īefore the fun came the jokes from my mates: “Good luck, you’ll have arm pump in a lap” “No more Maccas for you” “Have you got accident cover?” Blah, blah. So, with a gap in racing and a gap between project bikes I came up with a grand plan to have a sweet two-stroke in my garage for the next six months.
