The best yz250f "upgrade" for $1100 is to buy a 450 instead 😂. I wish I did the same with my "VET FRIENDLY" 350. Looking for more pep, I added full fmf and will be adding a vortex ecu. This will end up costing me $3kAUD on top of the original purchase price, and the 450 was $500 cheaper at the time of sale! 😂

That is a good kit. It makes me happy that lots of smart people come up with this good stuff for Moto's. The noise of the intake may be really loud because it is getting sucked thru a heap of holes. It may be better with slots instead of holes or maybe bigger holes. Try them all at once it might start whistling DIXE bro. And with the price of mufflers There is no way in hell I am paying over $1000 Strailian for a muffler. My Original KTM muffler does it's job perfectly after 23yrs of service. And It's prettymuch 3/4 aftermarket spec as standard any way. Also I think you used the SHORT SHIFTING term incorrectly. Short shifting is when you shift early in the revs on vehicles that have strong bottom end then die in the ass at high revs. I think you should of said QUICK SHIFTING. Quick shifting is when a vehicle makes the most power in the top end of the revs and gets there very quickly you have to shift quickly. And often, to stay in the power. I have riding and more content on my channel iffen anyone is interested. Great video mate. KEEP IT REAL ON THE BACK WHEEL 🤙

@@RandomRants525 Short shifting means you must shift early on this particular model because it goes through the power quick. So in order to get around the track in a quicker manner shirt shifting this machine is optimal. This is just the term we’ve used in R&D for engines that spool up quickly. “Short shifting” is a “rider” term not a mechanical term. Good stuff RandomRants and good comment Thanks for watching.

No grease on that filter and a drilled lid is more of a worry. Go ahead and waste $1900 if it makes you feel good. Usually only young fools waste their money on such things. Its known as a lamwom...look at me waste of money. Btw,I didn't see any testing of this product in the video? How about adding 2 more injectors, that would be more better right?

Hey Chris, Happy New Year from the vet dudes up here in Norcal. I've been considering the injector kit, airbox mod and Vortex on the same bike. Been thinking about adding a 270 big bore as well. Ultimate 250F vet bike, or is the big bore kit taking anything away from these mods? Thanks brother!

I have tried a YZ270F BB and it was great but didn't rev as good as modified 250F with 2nd injector/Vortex/HC piston. If you're looking for more torque than rev then going to a 270 kit with these mods is great! The one I tried was a Twisted Development build.

Interesting idea but I'm kind of confused of what a second injector would do. Atomize the fuel better? That fuel has to travel a long ways. If they wanted it richer couldn't they just up the stock injector in ecu?

@@KlintonSilvey If someone is saying they “NEED” an ECU on a 450 to ride one then that’s a problem. Do aftermarket ECU’s help? Of course. Do you need one? Of course not. Yamaha does a great job with their Power Tuner app to give the customer some nice parameters to play with that actually do help. However if you want to go further then there’s other options. If that option is not for you, continue to live your life and ride your dirt bike. There’s always tons of stock ECU map options on our site. Happy New Year.

The only thing that I severely dislike about these videos is it’s like hey we are testing the dual injector kit but it also comes with a drilled out airbox and power flow kit oh and it has an fmf exhaust. How can you determine its effects if it’s not just a one for one swap. Dual injector and tuned ecu for it with the oe style cover and backfire screen. Otherwise the airbox is probably doing more than the injector
@Keeferinctesting
@Keeferinctesting 15 сағат бұрын
So to simplify this a bit for you. I spoke about the FMF exhaust in this. YOU DON'T NEED IT! This kit will work without it. The FMF does "XYZ" with this kit. That was explained. We used a stock air filter/stock screen and not a Powerflow kit. That was shown. I tested with NON drilled cover and cover and findings were minimal on track, except for a more pleasant sound with no holes drilled out. I also have just tested the drilled out cover on our website with nothing else and gave those findings. So I guess at some point you will either have to trust in what I am saying or take it with a grain of salt. That part is up to you. You're only as good as who you trust. If it's not me, I get it, there are others out there that may be better for you. Happy New Year!

@@Keeferinctesting No i totally trust you and I saw the clarifying part about the pipe. I guess I jumped to some conclusions and probably didn't state that properly. I mean some of it can get confusing not so much on your end but on the performance products end in the sense that you don't really know how much each individual part does if its always paired with other things. since us broke guys like the best bang for the buck. that's all and thanks for the response. Happy New Year too! EX: dual injector has to be mapped obviously but mapped pump vs race fuel. What's doing more the injector or the upgraded fuel? Then how does the fuel map change the ignition timing vs a stock pump gas map. It is probably way too complicated to do a shootout on something like that to really break it down and I'd never expect you to. That's all I meant. Hope I didn't offend!
