1980 Yamaha YZ250 G (Evolution Bike)

Wow, that's beautiful! I had a '79 YZ125 and my brother had a '78. Looking at this sure brings back great memories!

Great video content on this machine. Although I must confess that I never owned or even rode a 250 of any make or model. I myself jumped from the 125 class straight up to the open class bikes where I am today at age 57. Thanks again for your time today and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

That was my first 250. Sent the shock to White Bros for the "Marty Moates Mod", installed an ATX fork kit, and it was a fantastic bike!

Hi Scott you’d probably have more fun on your YZ250 anyhow . . . But thanks for watching my content.

What would a 1979 YZ250 in excellent condition worth? Thanks for sharing!

👍👍👊

In 1980 these were as good as you could get in the 250 class. Faster than the 79 YZ and faster than the 81 YZ as well.

[@RockyMotoX]

IDK...I raced both and my '81H ran pretty strong too. That "Boost Bottle" the '81 got was "revolutionary." 😂 I did prefer the 5 speed transmission too. 🤷

I have a 79 YZ250 it's fast but the power band is totally unpredictable it's flip me a few times
