10 Things To Change from a Stock Yamaha YZ250 into a FMX Bike

[@jackreacher928]

How come you didn't grease the headset? You already know they lack from the factory. Sick job! You're a legend, mayne!

[@ishy5462]

Best looking YZ yet mate 😍

[@jackostrong]

Thanks mate I’m happy with how it came out

[@patcraig12]

A+ video. Seat and bike look good. We need to bring back cut fenders though.

[@jackostrong]

I’ll get the chainsaw out haha

[@Newso-m2b]

Nice build you can be proud of that one

[@jackostrong]

Cheers mate

[@aliennetwork08]

Loving this

[@jackostrong]

Awesome mate, thanks for tuning in

[@burritto3883]

Awesome video! I LOVE the GPR Stabilizer :) the silver pin is adjustable, you dont need that zip ty

[@jackostrong]

If you adjust the collar on the pin down it has free play and can slide up to far… does that make sense? Haha

[@thrilloughby5559]

looks sick jacko, seat looks the go👌🏻

[@jackostrong]

I’m a big fan of it 👌🏽

[@Brads187]

You sold me on Anti-sieze. Im proud to be an Anti-sieze man now.

[@jackostrong]

Haha perfect. Definitely helps on keeping the bike feel fresh

[@crusader4273]

Great video and excellent ugrades. I like the fenders black. Who makes the front forks? I see the stickers say shock treatment. Are they made by KYB?

[@allanmayne]

Definitely love your seat mate your bike should feel better to ride overall.

[@MrJono78]

JACKO 🙋....didn't know you posted on tubey man.....just seen this one ...good sh#t mate 🤘.....I've always just used grease on the threads that was good enough for me...but your just sold me on this copper sh#t so off to Autobarn I go lol ...I last seen you in Gosford at the FK show back in 22 riding a 4 banger which was surprising... Looks like your gone back to the 2 banger mate...looking forward to watching the other vids 👌

[@jackostrong]

Yeah the copper stays on the threads a little better then grease. I have bounced between the 250 and 450 a fair bit. I wish the 450 was as light as the two stroke

[@MrJono78]

The big guns on ya mate!.....throw the 450 around like a piece of paper haha ....build one from ground up and weight reduce every single part on the machine 🤔....any time I've heard your name I think 2 stroke 🤟

[@luiscotto6659]

I need one those stabilizers on my rm250 get the death wobbles easily

[@jackostrong]

They’re definitely good for off-road and mx also

[@gangbang2621]

SEAT IS DOPE !!!

[@AshleyGoodall-j1p]

‘It’s got the axle in there ya dickhead’. Haha. You’re a legend. Awesome video mate!

[@jackostrong]

Haha cheers mate

[@A-EfarmsTV]

Which Richard’s bro is video man haha 😂

[@TWITCH772]

cool video jacko, always been curious about sprocket selection for fmx, thanks for covering that. Does your suspension get a revalve or just stiffer springs and coating?

[@jackostrong]

No worries mate. I get a revalve and stiffer springs. Shock treatment have done mine for ever and they know what I like more then I do haha

[@tylermadl2088]

Link to the new seat?????

[@xxbiker4life48]

Did pro taper really discontinue the pastrana bend?

[@nickrogers1329]

Such a bummer!! Now gotta find a new brand with a similar bend

[@JR113FTW]

"when you hit 20 you feel your elbow click" if that aint the truth ahahah

[@R94bryce1]

Make sure to check them seat bolts are in every ride😅

[@jackostrong]

Seat grab with only seat and no bike would suck 😂

[@damo2664]

Bike looks awesome. But my ocd doesn’t like the brake lever. Haha you need a black one.

[@jackostrong]

Haha fair enough Damo, each to your own

Hi jack cheers from Chicago I didn’t see your leg before? Is there a story video? Sick bike broski 👌🏻

[@jackostrong]

Hi mate. Would be cold there right now 🥶 it was a fire works accident 😬

[@MikeyP82sf]

Badass! I want to get into FMX and this is an awesome video. Stupid question, but does a 23’ YZ250F have enough power for FMX, or is a 450 preferred? TIA!

[@TravisPlett-h3q]

For upright tricks I would think yeah

[@CapesOfficial]

Plenty.

[@jackostrong]

Hi mate, 250f has lots of power for Fmx. I think it’s the easiest bike to learn on

[@MikeyP82sf]

Thanks brother! You the man and glad I caught this video before I send out my suspension! @@jackostrong

This guy is not a good mechanic

[@jackthompson7970]

He's a free styler

[@zackiaryruddick701]

What about the tyre sticker on the swingarm 😂😂 that's the first thing to do , your not going to leave that there are you ?

[@jackostrong]

I lost the swing arm stickers somewhere 😔

[@zackiaryruddick701]

I don't think you lost it , I think someone ripped it off when you weren't looking 🤣 because it's ugly lol that was the first thing I did to my bike along with the safety sticker on the mud guard, you just can't have that on a 2stroke maybe on 4 stroke 🤣🤣
