YAMAHA Sitting Outside for OVER a Year: Will it Run? Project Bike Ep. 1

I was able to pick up this Yamaha V-Star 250 project bike for only $100. Lets go over the bike and see if it is going to be a runner.

Seems like a fun project! Back here in western PA its getting down to 30-40 degrees pretty regularly with a lot of rain/snow :( I would love to have 50 degrees and sunny this time of year, nothing like seasonal depression near Pittsburgh as I'm sure you know haha. Good luck on the bike, get 'er runnin' there bud

It's very cold at night here, but mostly sunny and 50 during the day. I know the seasonal depression all too well and don't miss it one bit. I figured, even if there is something catastrophic with the bike, I probably have $1000 worth of parts that can be sold. Couldn't beat $100 for a titled bike.

@@TyposGarage oh yeah, 100%. Definitely a good find!

That top exhaust pipe, as im sure youve learned, is a "dummy" pipe. The exhaust from both cylinders go to the bottom pipe. Good luck! Cheers!

Just watched your video. That's a great little starter bike. I restore bikes as a hobby and to make a few extra bucks. It is however uncanny to see the vehicles you have around you. I have the same Enduro, and the same Xterra, and I heard you mention the 650 which I also own. Good luck with the restore.

Wow, that's wild! Honestly, the Xterra has been the best vehicle we have ever owned. Barely any issues in 10 years.
