Trashed Yamaha Dirt Bike - TEARDOWN / RESULTS

Splitting the cases on the 2001 WR250F to see what it looks like, and if we can fix it.

[@MarkLXIX]

Finish the Yamaha before you forget how to put it back

What he said! :D

Believe he will not forget how to put it back even after a year !

Finish the WR 250 first. Trust me its harder to start a project after you start another

[@alexinguanti242]

By far my favourite KZbin channel!! Keep it up post as much as possible!

[@that_farmer287]

I love this channel to

[@TadpolCreative]

This is the most entertained I've been by a series on youtube in a long time - take that for what it is. I recently split apart my first engine and learned how little I knew, this is inspiring to an aspiring diy guy. Thank you.

[@ryantibbs]

You can't start something and not finish it might as well finish the WR

Let us roll the dice.

[@hyrumbeck2739]

Finish that bike! Freaking love this channel. Been subbed since 40k

[@smithwesson373]

First: Maybe a big chunk of the gearhalf vent out through the case when it broke, and just some gears/smaller pieces stayed in the motor. Second: Of course you fix this bike before you starts tearing hear bike.

I was going to write both these things but i found your comment so im writing this instead.

This channel has so much potential. Just keep buying broken stuff and fixing them. This channel will blow up.

WR250 then camera girls bike let her get more practice with it before making it road legal then if she falls of won’t brake indicator or reg holder or anything like that

I had to pause the video I was watching to come here and let you know the TE250 series is the best thing I've watched on KZbin. Keep it up, I love this channel! Alright, back to the video!!!!

[@brandonl1840]

“there it is, Cyclus propelus”

[@RetiredTony]

Have to say something bro... what I enjoy about your videos is that you guys work as a team, your wife is supportive and you guys have fun while working together. Much respect to your wife and you bro. Always looking forward to your next videos! Respect 👍

[@dalemaus7189]

Keep going on the 250 I think camera girl needs more practice lol

[@spike_-pw9iz]

Yeah, and maybe some safety padding. xD

[@justinpeterson8754]

Keep working on the WR! I discovered your channel a week ago and blasted through every video. I’ve been going through withdrawals. Thanks for the vid. Keep them coming.

[@Halfstep2024]

Here’s how ya go about this. Finish the little WR cause we all like seeing good bikes brought back to life for people to enjoy again. Then sell it and use the proceeds to make her bike street legal. Or teach her how to ride the 250 since it’s a wide ratio bike and a 4 stroke and should pretty much be street legal! Bam 💥 two solutions!

[@Flashtone08]

Love how this channel just progresses from one project to the next.

[@aidanconger7350]

Ive been waiting for this! Work on the wr!!!!!

[@eddiediederich7244]

Dude, your Wife/Girlfriend is super cool. I love how into it and supportive she is. She loves the whole process probably more than you do. She's a keeper!

[@lewicurran]

I love watching your videos, they’re so fun to watch!💕

[@mrtommyP80]

Just seen this channel and watched nearly all the videos! Keep up the good work, finally some one who can actually fix stuff and makes it fun to watch

Keep going on the WR, then make it camera girls bike. I bet she likes riding it better than her green machine.

[@willeypoboy6052]

Yup!

[@zx8401ztv]

The large chunk of gear must of escaped with the original damage. I'm amazed how well it survived with the bits of gear/aluminium inside. I expected the bore/piston to be badly worn, but it's not :-D.

[@cknonejamit8448]

Do the motor rebuild sorry camera girl

[@tiborklein5349]

camera girl lol

[@jamiemcneill3]

Amazing! Your videos always keep me hooked. I’d love to see the WR rebuilt. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

[@Bikerbarrie]

Tough choose you left us with. I'd say whatever is more achievable as of right now. So there is more content. Maybe get the stuff for the road legal but continue with this engine

[@mikespain8655]

Glad to see it is working out so far.

[@andrewsnerr9592]

absolutely love your channel man! Keep up the good work and PLZ post more!!

[@Qitzyer]

You must use same pair of crankcases because they have been casted same time and there can be some differences between other crankcases.

[@NotJo4Ever13]

You do what makes you happy man! Whatever it is, we’re going to enjoy it!

[@villarreal2025]

JG, I thorogly enjoy the content the two of ya'll put. nothing like starting a day on 4.5 hrs of sleep with a cup of coffee and a new video.

[@Box545x39]

WR250 Engine rebuild first would be great. Love the resurrection content.

[@mickfbr]

U guys are the bomb seriously... so much fun to watch, so much real info and learning, a very fresh approach to a channel... keep up the good humour and laughs... and swt projects! U said it best, things don't go to you to die... long live the things others gave up on.....

You two as always making me smile.. Thanks from Mr Smiley 😄😄😄😄

Really cool video my friend. I somehow wound up here after watching videos on bikes and thought this was intermission lol but I stuck through it because I enjoyed your expertise and chemistry with your companion :) Kudos

[@RistaMotorista]

very nice vid now, for then next video... i can't decide, do whatever you feel like because it will make the video better

[@foamyflightmaster9385]

Good job of the teardown, I think making a street legal bike is the way forward for now, then a rebuild in slow time, after all, dedication behind the camera deserves reward.

@@samurboi8007 See what you did , very clever :)

[@danielgilroy8857]

Seeing the clean cylinder was a pretty cool find on this! Hope inducing for for the rest of the project. Stick with this blue gal. It would be cool to see you change the crank bearing. Also pretty cool to see that the screen between the clutch half and gear half actually seemed to do its job effectivly. . .Looking forward to the electrical wizardry of the KX too. I actually went to go check one out cause of your last video. looks just as fun as as the KE100; much smaller top end which is cool to see how the modern 2stroke 100 looks compared to the older 2stroke 100.

[@stevenmarsden2257]

"Tappy tap". Someone's been watching some AvE

[@potc420]

Or Happy Gilmore... Which is where AvE got it from

[@jimbob542]

Keep going, it'll be worth it. I rode one of these on an Enduro in the KwaZulu-Natal, Drakensberg mountains last year. One very capable old bike. Love your films guys.

[@Antholography]

Finish the WR. So far, it appears that for very little effort and just a little bit of time and money on gaskets, it could (hopefully) run quite nicely.

[@vermili0n]

you guys are the best lol I love watching your videos, very informative too i've learned a lot about motorcycle repair just from binge watching most of your videos

[@melvinlindqvist4471]

I love this channel

[@M4TT4TT4CK]

Best videos to watch. Doesn't matter what you post, though I suggest you continue with the WR given that I'm emotionally invested in this motor now. It deserves life!

[@rpmjunky2795]

Don’t run that replacement main bearing. It’s been sitting so lack of oil. And could be toast from when the crank blew. Use the other bearing but don’t pound it out, that will ruin it. You need to bake the case in an oven then it should fall right out. Best of luck!!

[@euanfredrick2673]

Just buy a brand new bearing for like 7 bucks well worth the money so you don't have to take it all apart again

[@rpmjunky2795]

Euan Fredrick $7? Crank bearings? You know much single oem bearings cost? Like $50. Aftermarket crank bearings are like $60 for a set

[@euanfredrick2673]

@@rpmjunky2795 I may be mistaken but in the uk you can get bearings pretty cheap for example I did a Ktm 400 crank bearings both of them for 20 quid :)

[@stebly7]

Great video, interesting to watch this diagnosis. Let's continue the WR's motor. When you've made it down to splitting cases and swapping trans you're kinda committed. Also, it becomes even more interesting to see it get checked out, finding what is necessary to fix or replace and then reassembled with as few "DOH" moments as possible...hehe!

Awesome dude your amazing

[@Jesses001]

I learned something. I should record myself taking complex things apart rather then taking notes. It is FAR easier to watch a video then it is to try to figure out what my bad handwriting means, ha. Also, you done good finding camera girl, haha. She is rather intelligent and can learn fast. Rare bread. Need to keep them around.
