  • For Episode 4 of ERA's we have a guy from the Pacific Northwest who happens to be one of the best guys to ever race a dirt bike; Ryan Villopoto. Sure he has 10 championships but let's answer the important question, can Ryan Villopoto ride an old 2 stroke? Today at Chaney Ranch we find out on this 1993 YZ125 during a head to head lap time challenge. In the "ERA's" series, I will ride Every bike, Racing anyone, Anywhere! The WR500 is warmed up and ready for a rematch. Let me know down in the comments who you want to see next!
    Check out our new Limited Edition ERA's 90's style T-Shirt; featuring Ryan Villopoto in the link below!

      As far as 2 stroke riders, Jeremy McGrath was my idol as a 90's kid. Wish I could see him in his prime vs. Carson race today on 500cc bikes. That would be a PPV worthy event, IMO 🤘

      I'm the only one of my riding buddies that maintained my fitness levels into my late 30s. I usually take a fully-dressed KTM690 with panniers, luggage, and all out on 18psi and still outride my friends on their enduro 250 and 300 2-strokes. I also go the other way with a yz125x. Haven't ridden moto in years, but I can run a 20min 5k so I wouldn't be worried about it. Skill and fitness but both matter.

      A guy out of Australia recently did a study of professional athletes and his study determined pro motocross and supercross is the #1 most physically demanding sport in the world. Highest heart rates over the longest period of time over every single other sport. Some heart rates measured up to 210 bpm. So its literally the hardest sport in the world

It had such inconsistent head shake. Wanted to kill you the whole time and not in the fun cr500 way. Just straight up a first class ticket to having to sit up in bed because you broke all your ribs. Should have waited a year and got one of the best generations of yz's ever.

    I had this bike! I bought it from a local NESC expert named Todd Richotte back in the day. Fun fact - In 1986, Todd beat another local amateur named Doug Henry for the 1986 NESC 125cc amateur championship. Todd still rips to this day, and the bike I was able to procure from him was built to the hilt. Although the motor was tweaked to the max, it still wasn't as fast as a bone stock 1993 Honda CR 125. I remember this bike as being ultra stable as the frame was reinforced at every weld. I've never ridden another bike that instilled so much confidence going through the rough stuff. I could ball through the nastiest natural terrain that was roughed up by thousands of laps of every bike known to man, and that bike would stay straight as an arrow. I'm sure it had something to do with the suspension being professionally tuned along with that reinforced frame. I really miss that bike.

      ​@@OGLizardKingwell you've got to sent the bike to a decent tuner that ports and tunes for the parts on the rolling Road or its a guessing game, at least when done properly they are quick for the era, I've always been a honda guy and still own them and have also owned 2 93 cr125 great bikes but the handling of the 93-95 yz was briliant regardless and having it properly tuned which I assume your mate didn't makes a big difference 👍
