KX500 2 Stroke Engine in a Yamaha 250 Frame / Sleeper Dirt-bike

Howdy, This bike started out as a 2002 YZ 250 was completely rebuilt from the frame up with a fresh KX500 engine. It was done by a local shop here Charlotte NC. My son sold it to help pay for his last semester at UNCC. I uploaded the video for the Facebook market place listing and it has over 100,000 views. I figure I will leave it up for the smile. In retrospect would have made a better video. Enjoy

@@bigtimeknight57 you think 2 strokes are supposed to leak between the cylinder and the pipe? 😂 Use your eyes

[@bigtimeknight57]

@@MV-ri7zu No I don’t think that, I know how 2 strokes run. I’m a mechanic, a mix of gas and 2 stroke oil is put into the gas tank and when it gets squirted into the engine it lubricates the piston rods. When the piston goes down and the gas/oil mixture lubes the piston rods, in the cylinder itself the gas/oil mixture is combusting causing the motor to run. It smokes because when you burn oil it creates a white foggy smoke
