YZ250 build - Amazing trail ride was a bit too much!

[@singletrackmarc819]

That's what you built the bike for was technical riding go out there and get it that's the only way to get better man you might end up loving the hard stuff

[@dirtniron]

its painful but makes me wanna go back and get better, same like MX riding, still a lot of room to improve and thats what keeps me going back and ride

[@Community-Action]

Joey Mac makes it look easy!!

[@dirtniron]

he sure does!

[@mikemallory8892]

When I was 13 and I'm 49 now with my paper route, I saved up to buy a 1976 tt500; start that on a trail all day long,LOL.

thats a lot of paper! :)

Don’t you love it when your “friends” take you on trails people don’t even hike up to?🤗

[@carsonjohnson1845]

Good video. Recently I broke my arm and I’m only 10 it hurt but not too much. Getting my cast on hurt more cause my bone was in a weird position. So they had to push it back. The whole time I did not scream or cry. But I’m sad cause I don’t get to ride my Crf150r.

[@dirtniron]

it will heal soon and you will be back on the bike! meanwhile enjoy some riding videos ;) take it easy

You know I'm loving the yz250 build. I watched the dirtbike review.. And now to see it on some awesome tech trails... ya buddy... Man it looks sweet. Tech trails like this one makes me love my 13oz stealy flywheel weight. My yz250 runs slow like its part diesel with it. Lakes are freezing 🥶 here. Time to stud some tires ✊👩‍🦲👍

thanks Ernie, sounds like a FWW would be a good idea for this kind of riding. Glad you like the build and riding, stay safe on those lakes! ;)

Well done Rado - I've found hitting the gym twice a week makes a huge difference when you start riding gnar - especially since I'm 52.

Absolutely! I am slowly restarting my fitness program.. feeling little out of shape lately. Thanks for the advice! btw, what is your first name?

You really knocked the new right off that Shiney YZ! Nice trails. I love me some 2-smoke action!!

Intro was hilarious:)))Awesome trails and Tricky terrain there but over all you did really well

[@dirtniron]

[@mikemallory8892]

That kind of technical riding will help you with your clutch and throttle control!

[@dirtniron]

yea, it sure will!

[@olliechristopher467]

Rado at 2:30: "these are some nice trails"!!, at 8:14: "Alright guys this is a little more than I was expecting", and at 10:30 "I'm running out of breath" LOL. I'm laughing with you Rado. I know 100% how tough those rocky steep trails are like!! GoPro does no justice on the difficulty of rock hopping/crawling/bulldogging. Especially when it gets steep. As always outstanding footage and description.

[@dirtniron]

hahaha.. I was changing rather quickly :) it was such a fun ride tho!

[@shallah777]

That trail is brutal!

[@dirtniron]

yea, it sure is!

[@XJonAye]

Nice trails, looks challenging, and fun. I want to build a similar bike in the worst way, there are two up grade im not 100% sure about, they electric start and the 300cc kit. Id be happy with just having a bike at this point.

[@TheJumpn]

Tough ride!!! I would have died!!

[@dirtniron]

haha, I was struggling too :)

[@ThePetros67]

Nice trails , and you did very well , Drew on the other hand is some level rider , enjoyed your video and thanks.

[@dirtniron]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@tomnekuda3818]

Rado, The Lord sure loved rocks, He sure made enough of them. Ever notice how, when you're not lookin', they jump under your front wheel? Been there; done that. That engine seems to have a whipsong powerband. Seems like when I ride trails like that I always get my training wheels caught up in the rocks........., Keep the Faith, Tom P.S. I'd get a ReKluse clutch and to hell with it.

You should get Eric gorre's 295 kit with low to mid porting. Have it on my 08 yz250 and it is amazing. Lugs up hills like that no problem and rips on the top end.

[@dirtniron]

I had that exact package on my 250sx build I did 2 years ago.This time I wanted to go with ported stock size.

[@dirtniron]

thanks Darren, glad you like it! haha, I am sometimes thinking to avoid it too.. but then later I want to go back to the exact spot and try it again

[@BlueDart1971]

Dirt N Iron I understand the challenge. I don’t mind it when I’m done I want to be done though. My kids and I went for a long ride. Made it to the top of the mountain and decided to take a decent trail back down through a canyon. It kept getting worse and by the time I decided to turn around we were over half way so we kept going. My son a new rider at the time got tired of tipping over and on the last one just stayed down and said screw this. Obviously we made it but getting stuck in the canyon wasn’t fun. Good learning experience for the kids though:)

[@DatGloriaVires]

Sounds like there's the same problem I have with mine with stalling. Need to put an 11oz flywheel on there. Mine also stalls when it's idling down a hill.

[@The-Host]

They make E-start and hydraulic clutch kits for em. That would make a cool video.

[@dirtniron]

[@painsrides]

Well Rado, at least you know the bike has a good clutch.... LOL 🤣

[@dirtniron]

hahah, thats for sure!

[@tieoneon1614]

Im built like a linebacker, and needed every lb of it cuz I took my crf450x thru there twice. Not sure if 50lbs more bike or kick starting is tougher though.

[@dirtniron]

light e-start 2 stroke is way to go I think.. its possible on other bikes but definitely more tough

[@cupcakke9999]

it’s crazy how back in the day, 2 strokes used to rule the track. and 4 strokes ruled the trails. now it’s reversed in my opinion.

[@hyrumbeck2739]

What sprocket ratio are you running?

[@DirtZen]

Man that was a hell of a workout. The YZ did great, especially when you got to open it up, it wanted to fly! Definitely a fight through the gnarly stuff. How would you make it more luggable if you wanted to?

[@dirtniron]

thanks man, glad you like it! first thing would be to get FWW and maybe go little bigger on a rear sprocket to change the gearing a bit

[@pathetic_bot9476]

Your definitely as good as Drew you gotta do some races

[@jonathondavis170]

Once Rado gets in race shape he will be a beast to contend with, especially as he grows more comfortable with his new dance partner. That was a great ride!!!

[@dirtniron]

haha, thanks guys for having so much faith in me ;)

[@Supperup40672]

2 strokes rule out there on those rails like that I think a 4 stroke is better for fast riding on trails

Needs a flywheel weight and maybe PV governor mod.

[@Mike-01234]

This kind of trail is more for a trials bike can be done with a light weight Motocross bike. I always did better with smaller bike on these things I would gear it lower all slow going and easier on a smaller bike put my feet down easily. 4 stroke low end torque probably works well. Going down easy to jam the front wheel between two rocks go over the bars.
