[@michiganants150]

Man I was a Honda guy until I got a Yamaha 225 dx, these things can fly. For 225cc’s it can hit 60 mph. Very comfortable and awesome machines.

[@EwFatppl]

the pullstarts reliable on them and easy to use even if ur missing a part you can still rig it to work forever

[@motormouth2472]

I agree. My 225DX is an absolute fucking tank. It's pretty worn and doesn't have much life left, so I beat the piss out of it every time I ride it and it just laughs it off. Burns through it's oil so the only maintenance I do is occasionally filling it with oil

She smokes like a chimney though so I'm gonna rebuild the engine during the next month and she will be better than ever. To all you guys and gals out there; ride safe and have fun!

Tried to compete with the early air cooled 250rs. Its pretty fast! Geometry is a little strange- super skinny bike and the foot pegs might be one inch long

[@carmane2894]

Saggy Sunsacs so far mine hasn't had one problem. They weren't as good as Honda as the motor was so far back that they are useless in many situations but this is because Honda patented where the engine could be. The actual quality was there but overall design wasn't as good.
