Sweet build. I have an 01 yz250 with 2005 yz250 front forks, flywheel weight, fmf gnarly pipe, and some other goodies that make it a trail monster. The yz 250's are by far the easiest Japanese 2 strokes to turn into woods/enduro bikes.
2:25 You don't show it for long, but that damage to the piston on the exhaust side (crown edge wear above the top ring, and maybe even the upper ring groove getting wider.), is due to not letting the water warm up enough before taking off for the ride. The bike is running rich stock, and that takes longer for the water to warm up. Don't be impatient when warming up your bike. The tops of the radiators should be pretty hot to the touch. Warm enough to be uncomfortably hot with no gloves on.
@@Moto290 I purchased the yamaha OEM "restyle" kit from RMATV/MC. It's more expensive, but the plastic holds up better color wise. Oh that tire is a Shinko 505 Cheater
Aye nice build, Found you by looking up swing arm removal as mine is seized. Also live right down in pueblo working on my 2013 yz250. Appreciate the info i got from it.
That was fascinating. If that was a “woods bike” build, I think my mostly stock DRZ will stay whatever it currently is out of the box. “Woods bike” looks hard 😅.
Your awesome. I'm stoked. I'm thinking hard on buying a new 250x when the shop opens back up (virus)and keeping my current bike for my homies that want to ride with me.
I ride a 2018 yz250 with a 3.2 gallon Clark fuel tank, home made skid plate with linkage guard, 13oz stealy flywheel weight 💪 😋,motion pro coolant recovery tank, zeta full wrap hand guards, protaper evo woods high bend with fasst co anti vibration inserts 👍👍👍😜. Stock trans, shinko mx216 fatty up front and 525 cheater rear 19inch ( works great). Yz250x suspension settings as a baseline, went tad softer, ktm guys all said why, just buy a orange bike. YAMAHA is my brand loyalty 💯, in 40 years I only had 1 YAMAHA that was a toilet, 01 660r raptor, I love my 2018 yz250, only thing missing is a promoto billet kickstand.
These bikes, there is something about them, for sure. I found that even my 2002 felt better ergonomically as well as they way it handled the trails to be significantly better than the orange bikes (that I’ve ridden). The stock suspension even before revalve was better than any WP offering. (IMO anyway). I would take a YZ over an XC variant anyway of the week for XC racing and stuff. I’m a fan. But, different strikes for different folks I suppose.
Glad to see you're back, that was a sweet build, love the ending. What did you like about the Flex bars? I've been looking at them just can't pull the trigger on the cost, at 50 years my shoulder and wrist joints need all the lovin they can get.
Vince the vibration reduction is huge. When I get on my Beta now (no flexxbars) i can barely stand it. I never really had a complaint until I started using the flexxbars on this bike. So, that’s my measurement guide basically.
Very cool! May I suggest maybe heating up the cases in an oven so that they expand uniformly to insert the bearings. I'd be too worried about the propane torch causing warping. What type of material did you bolt onto the glide plate at the bottom?
I think that's a safe bet. The x can be easily tuned to be more like the motocrosser with some tweaking of the powervalve, ECU swap, getting the head decked and stuff like that.
Dude sick build! What year is it? I rebuilt a 2000 yz250, not near as much detail as you put into it, but i did all the motor work. I didn’t love it for trail riding, so i sold it and bought my KTM 300. Oh and also, I’m super jealous of your engine stand. I just wrestle with them on the work bench LOL And your garage is too clean haha
Hi mate........great video! it was very useful for me. If you are reading this...........what is the exact description(name)of your swing arm bearing removal tool....
@@PlushEnduro I was thinking the same thing like damn that’s a lot of cash to put in a older 2 stroke but it couldn’t have came out better nice bike and great video hard work and dedication pays off💪🏽‼️
hey dude. i was wondering if you give us the link on what parts did you put in the bike i just bought a run down 05 yz250 and this pushed to upgrade it to next level hope for your reply.
How are those TUSK rims holding up? Is the Lectron worth it and did you try a JD kit or anything else before the Lectron? Those bars look nice and tall.
Tusk Rims we’re great. The Lectron I actually pulled back off and went back to stock. It kinda neutered the bike in my opinion. Ran great but lost some of is spirit.
I'd be impressed if it wasn't timelapse.
I’d be impressed if you could kickstart your bike consistently

As soon as I saw the shocks come off, this was no bandaid mod.
I think that's one of the most satisfying videos I've ever watched! Thanks!! I'm sure it does great in the woods too!!
That's a sweet sounding 250!! You really paid attention to the detail I admire that.
Just came across this build video. Super practical, top-to-bottom build. Very impressive and satisfying to watch!
lol, I was not expecting that last part about sponsors not getting back to you that was classic!!!!
The time spent polishing everything out for that new finish was awesome. Great build
Thanks 👍 I appreciate you taking the time to watch Kevin.
Great work fellow throttle jokey!!
So awesome dude! I thought I was a badass putting an 18 inch wheel and a bigger tank on my yz😏 makes me want to start tearing down!
Thanks man! Big tank and 18” wheel, you’re halfway home already. get tearin’
MASTER Artisan!!!!
Great build video...a lot of the same upgrades I put on my YZ. Love my Flexxbars!
Fascinating! Wished had your skills! 👍🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
Coolest video I've seen in a while. Sweat bike.
Absolutely love this bike
Thanks Brandon!
came out killer, congrats man looks awesome!!!!
GOONnation101 🙏 I appreciate it!
The way you secure the crankshaft to install the clutch basket is extremelly clever!! Nice bike!!
Cleverness on my part is both random and rare. Lol. Thanks man!
Good job, thanks !
Greetings from Poland
Wow that was awesome, very mechanically talented and what a nice bike build.
Eric Winner thanks!!
You're one of the few likable dirt bike guys in UA-cam land. Thanks again and thanks for your responses to my questions. Oh and great video!
Oh man, thanks! I can’t help but wonder which ones drive you crazy. I have my own list going as well. Haha
@@PlushEnduro Hey have you considered doing this professionally?
Trent Jones if I ever fall into a giant inheritance or win the lottery, you bet!
You’ve done a mega job on this, fair play !
It is always such a pleasure to watch. I wish it was so quick an easy.
Right? Months of work boiled down to 12 minutes. Makes it seem tooooo easy. 😆
best work!!! looks amazing.
I have a yz250 too love it so much power I had a 125 quad like your past video so relate able
My 1999 kx250 came with a clarke 3.3 gallon tank and I love it
Great build. Very nice
Well Done!
Incredible vry smooth job ending wid vry healthy rich stroke feels d best
🙏
Amazing work.
Thanks Jay!
you are a Wizard! absolutely unbelievable! well done! ty for the vid
Thanks bud!
Great job, thanks to share!

Glad you liked it!!
Satisfying 😍

Ahh steel frame too! Nice! They should bring back the steel frames on the yzx’s. They feel noticeably “softer” in the choppy stuff.
thats a dream build. nice dude
Thanks for watching Björn.
Awesome!!!!
Thanks!!
Sweet build.
PAVIA thanks!
Anyone that I reached out to that didn't get back to me? lmao... Great job on the build
Excellent man. Saludos desde Santa Marta. Colombia
🙌
Cool video! Nice build.
Thanks Kenny!
Great video
Thanks!
Such a cool build! Now let the battle scars commence
Day one, dented the pipe in a bit, scratched the plastic up reeaaaal good and already had flat, and fouled plug @
@@PlushEnduro what plug were you running? My yz250 fouls the br8es At 11-13 hours. And I haven't fouled a br8eg at 40 hours
Kolton finlinson it WAS a br8es, I had a box of them. I through an EG in there after that though. 👍
Turned out nice ! I had a ‘99 fully rebuilt it it was fast, quicker than my ‘03 CR 250
The YZ is such a great all around platform!
Perfect...
Such a beatyfull bike 2 stroke excelent quality job
F L thank you 🙏
Very cool.
Thanks!
Awesome content! I really enjoyed watching this video. I think you should do another YZ250 build. And make sure you hold onto the new one!!
Wife says no!

This Mountain Life I did. Picking it up Tuesday.
Noice! Gratz
This Mountain Life it’s cooling now. On my third heat cycle. Excited it’s chugs soooo low and keeps moving without stalling.
would be cool to see a list of what was done. Did you change the fork springs, use 2.5wt oil, etc

Good luck finding parts😂
@@rileyshafford7672 I don't have a problem actually. Lots avail on eBay or aftermarket
poop oh nice!! That’s good
Awesome build. I was hoping you would keep polishing on that pipe :D Try a polish called simichrome out on the next one!
Anyway, subscribed!
Glad to see you're back, that was a sweet build, love the ending.
What did you like about the Flex bars?
I've been looking at them just can't pull the trigger on the cost, at 50 years my shoulder and wrist joints need all the lovin they can get.
Vince the vibration reduction is huge. When I get on my Beta now (no flexxbars) i can barely stand it. I never really had a complaint until I started using the flexxbars on this bike. So, that’s my measurement guide basically.
Great build brother!!
Appreciate it my man!
Nice! How's everything holding up after 2 years on the polishing, etc?
Very cool! May I suggest maybe heating up the cases in an oven so that they expand uniformly to insert the bearings. I'd be too worried about the propane torch causing warping.
What type of material did you bolt onto the glide plate at the bottom?
UMADBROYOLO The material is UHMW. I’ve made 3 skid plates out of the one 12x12 sheet I bought.
@@PlushEnduro Thanks man!
Wow very very nice work. Better than new. Meticulous attention to detail. Are you a motorcycle mechanic by trade? Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Paul! Nah, It's more of a hobby.
Ive been thinking about doing this same build, but I think im just gonna find a nice used 250X and go play!
I have 2 yz250x bikes (2017 and 2018) for my kids. Excellent bike.
I think that's a safe bet. The x can be easily tuned to be more like the motocrosser with some tweaking of the powervalve, ECU swap, getting the head decked and stuff like that.
Hi there, from Portugal, congratulations for this bike 👍
The plastics is what year?
Dude sick build!
What year is it? I rebuilt a 2000 yz250, not near as much detail as you put into it, but i did all the motor work. I didn’t love it for trail riding, so i sold it and bought my KTM 300.

And your garage is too clean haha
Dang what is that song in the beginning because I like it
how long have you been repairing 1 unit of yz125 motor
Dang you really took that thing all the way apart.
Allllll the way!
What type of wheel are you using on the bench grinder for polishing?
Im going to get my 2017 yz450f and put that engine to ltr,and going to put 250 yamaha 2 stroke into 450
Looks bitchn'!! I love my lectron on my '19yz250x
Ryan Childs thanks!
Did you change the oil in those forks and rear shock? Thinner oil is better for woods. I use PJ1 2.5 weight.
They were re-valved by a local suspension guy. I’m not sure what weight he used though. I blindly put my faith into his expertise. 😂
You are insane.
Looks like an amazing job but how do you build a YZ 250 Woods bike without adding a flywheel weight.
Steve Forbes oh it’s there. 11oz
Amazing job - was great to watch! Just curious what type of buffing wheel you used on the exhaust?
Thanks Mark, It's basically a scotchbrite pad. I threw a link in the description just now.
