@@Mr10usdad it’s definitely not the same as it yousta be !!! Take’s a true talent to rip a 2 stroke!!! I’ve had both sold all my 4 choker’s!! Off!! Bye bye👋🏼
Watching this process makes me smile. Ken looks like he’s having fun being a free agent. Of all places, he ends up at the pro circuit test track on a pro circuit YZ 250 for the red Bull Street rhythm. They fly him in on the helicopter and then fly him out by helicopter. I think he’s really enjoying himself just being able to bounce around and do it for the love of it. I think this is a better business model for Ken now that he’s at the latter part of his career. He should just enjoy himself and race whenever he wants on whatever bike he wants. His name has enough star power that he can do that and bring a draw with him wherever he goes. Good luck Kenny , I’m pulling for you & PC/Ping.
Mitch is a wizard! And Mike Schnikey has always been a part of cool great builds. Remember when he tuned the 125cr for lamson in 07. Ken looks good already, and the bike sounds amazing. I think ping can approve that the engine package is unreal!
2-SMOKER LOOKS SICK & KENNY LOOKS FREAKY FAST!! WHAT A COUPLE OF LEGENDS , KENNY, MICH !! LOVE EM BOTH !! ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻👍🏻👌🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼🔥HOPE YOU KILL IT @ STRIGHT RYTHEM!! 🏆🏆🏆🎖
You know, and I'm sure that I can speak for everyone, it's great to see Kenny doing whatever he wants... For the moment. Best of Luck on the PC Yamaha !!
That might just be the coolest looking bike I have seen since the 1983-4 works Hondas…it’s just that classic Yamaha bumble bee livery😍. Does it for me every time I see it run on a bike!
It's gonna be so sick! I'm pumped for tomorrow. Can't wait! I love the throwback yellow and I love that Roczen is on a Pro Circuit Yamaha built by Mitch Payton. So sick.
@@Davido50 A regular schmuck can have a perfectly tuned bike as well man. Just gotta understand what parts of the carb to adjust & what a properly tuned engine should sound like.
@@Davido50 for the record you can get this engine spec, except the stamps om the pipe and the special blue custom made silencer for this race. Ping have it, and its based of mitch and r.v made 2019.
I miss the stinger ends! Tried to find one for my ‘05 yz125 but no luck. My roommate’s ‘00 yz125 had one like they all did back then and it looked kickass.
Kawi guys al looking on wtf why don't we have a 2023 2t 250, Hannah retro version, looks sick btw, how its done, good work Kenny you look good in Yamaha OW colors!
Looks faster through the whoops now than he has for past 2 supercross seasons! Looks like BluCru might add another win to the list for 2022.. killing it! Can’t wait to see how good the 23’s are!
I am excited and ready for the race! I absolutely love the bike, for the life of me I don't understand why they laid graphics over blue plastic that really throws off the looks of a super trick bike. Maybe with the blue carbon silencer it will pull it together better. It's a super trick bike I dig it!
For a minute looked like the grip was spinning on the tube, because it cut out, but it’s jetted primo and super snappy O yeah…..! @ Roczen “A professional trainer talk about your performance, and how much it would improve without your wrist brace have you ever considered that it could be a crutch” wishing you all the best with your career brava………!
Ken said, over a year ago, that he didn't need the money; he was in it for the fun. This is what fun looks and sounds like.
He also said he hated 2 strokes !
@@thebanditabromowiczhe also conceded A hole.
Nothing is better than a perfectly tuned two strokes.
When it comes on a pro rider hands it gets pure gold 🔥❤️
Imagine how much more popular motocross would be if the two strokes came back.

Weeellll..... Except ANY 4stroke...
Bbbbbrrrraaaaappppp!!!!
One of the fastest guys to ever ride a dirt bike. Have fun Ken
Ille reply as Ken
Thanks man gonna rip it

Box vans,two strokes, Mitch! Pure excellence!
Ken always always always has looked so good. This is THE UGLIEST BIKE AND GEAR COMBO I HAVE EVER SEEN
Whoa... box van, idle air screw adjustment, AND the best looking Yamaha I've seen in a long while. Thank you Ping, Mitch and KR!
When you see this, Ken on a Yamaha 250 yz and you would have never expected it, you know why you love motocross so much!
It just hit me, this sounds like a long time ago!
One of the most naturally gifted riders the sport has seen
Love the two stroke sound. When I think motocross, I still think about that sound.
Stoked to see Ping and Mitch together. If every city in America had a little supercross track like this, freedom would brap!
Thing sounds CRISPY perfect jetting.
The 15/91 interchange traffic is so bad Kenny rents a helicopter.... damn
Ken on a 2 stroke.now were talkin!2 stroke needs to come back in a big way. Glad yamaha is still building them.Yellow/Black is back. Awesome!!!
Mitch is a wizard! And Mike Schnikey has always been a part of cool great builds.
Remember when he tuned the 125cr for lamson in 07. Ken looks good already, and the bike sounds amazing. I think ping can approve that the engine package is unreal!
I raced in the old days of MX in the US, so I love that yellow n' black paint job!
That sound is pure heaven and evil at the same time. What a 2 stroke can do to the landscape is fun
Yamaha always looks best in yellow and black
David Pingree is an asset to the Mx community. Always striding to help others. Would love to shake your hand some day. God bless you sir.
the only problem with pingree is how old he reminds me that I am. 😄
Love Mitch's passion for the sport. You can see buzz he get watching guy's ride his bikes.
Man that bike sounds amazing. He looked great in the whoops. Dudes so smooth. What a Rockstar move with the heli too
2-SMOKER LOOKS SICK & KENNY LOOKS FREAKY FAST!! WHAT A COUPLE OF LEGENDS , KENNY, MICH !! LOVE EM BOTH !! ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻👍🏻👌🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼🔥HOPE YOU KILL IT @ STRIGHT RYTHEM!! 🏆🏆🏆🎖

Was glad to hear Kenny talk about how much he loved the 2 stroke and the setup.
That might just be the coolest looking bike I have seen since the 1983-4 works Hondas…it’s just that classic Yamaha bumble bee livery😍. Does it for me every time I see it run on a bike!
Ping, always looking how you can help others! Your the best buddy have a blessed day
It's gonna be so sick! I'm pumped for tomorrow. Can't wait! I love the throwback yellow and I love that Roczen is on a Pro Circuit Yamaha built by Mitch Payton. So sick.
Thanks for tuning in!
2stroke sounds so sweet baby,
my heart beatings so past if I hear the sounds🤗💗
listening to Ken rip that through the whoops makes me so happy.
Thanks to all the people who made it happen .✊️✊️✊️
Gotta be one of the best videos you’ve done! Raw comes to mind. Can’t wait to watch the race!
Nice job David! Thanks for doing this!!
Sounds so crispy ⚡️great bike and video!
Well it's highly professionally tuned for Ken.

Outro of the year 🤟🏻
Haulin' & Ballin' #94!
If mitch is willing to build the old stinger pipe with blue carbon WTF that would be AMAZING!!!!
I miss the stinger ends! Tried to find one for my ‘05 yz125 but no luck. My roommate’s ‘00 yz125 had one like they all did back then and it looked kickass.
Wow! Back to a box van. Love the sound.
My god that bike looks and sounds amazing. Ken is a legend. It’s so cool to see him having a blast on that thing
...already looks better than a yellow Suzuki.
Awesome seeing Ken back on a 2 smoker, straight rhythms gonna be badass 👌
Between this and doing world SX Ken's got a new fan here
Mitch best man of the Planet four years and years racing
One of my favorite races to watch, can’t wait.
How cool is this!? Mitch and Kenny!!
I like the look of that 94 on a Yamaha. Nothing better than an early morning at Glen Helen either.
I love the original 1980's YZ graphics!
Mitch is awesome such a cool guy
Long live the 2stroke !👍🏻👍🏻❤️😁
I remember watching Ken race as a kid back in 🇩🇪 . He would declass all the other riders. What a talent.
Yes I watched him since he started the GP, I think he was 15 years old at that time, on a 250 rmz if I recall..Great rider.
Love the old school graphics. 👍
This video was a great way to start the day.
Man I like free agent Kenny, that bike is sick, go get em K-Roc
Like the 70s colors and sound!
I really enjoyed watching this.
Happy to see Ken just enjoying himself being a bit more free, mich is the man period.
That engine is incredible
feels like the early 2000s, 2 strokes and private flights
Finally a new Yamaha that is the correct color!
Kawi guys al looking on wtf why don't we have a 2023 2t 250, Hannah retro version, looks sick btw, how its done, good work Kenny you look good in Yamaha OW colors!
Sweet PC YZ@!
Man! With all the injuries/set backs and illness, imagine Ken at 💯. He's a beast amidst everything he's dealt with physically.
Wishing him the best!
KR is the new MC! God damn rock star! I love it!!!!
I swear I can smell it!❤️
Looks faster through the whoops now than he has for past 2 supercross seasons! Looks like BluCru might add another win to the list for 2022.. killing it! Can’t wait to see how good the 23’s are!
Would be freaking dope if star racing yamaha would line up kenny on a 250 ringdinger with those thumpers
This is bad ass on so many levels. Great job guys!
Wow even made the side panels gray like the old OW works yamahas. Nice I like it! Good luck Ken!
Yep, old look colors/graphics kinda…newer bike! Looks great, sounds great, IS great! Great rider in Roczen too!
This has me wanting to go buy another 2 stroke! lol
That’s the best sounding yz250 Iv ever heard
Hell yeah! That’s bad ass!! Can’t wait to see ken kick some ass on that yz!
That sound is fucking glorious. It's like an angel signing.
Ping bring it home with Mr Payton. Great job guys, SR will be epic this year
Poetry in motion!
Mitch's bikes are always awesome. How cool it is of Ping to offer up his bike for KR to ride?
This is Kenny having fun and I wanna see more of it! Keep rippin’ and doing you Ken!🤙🏻
Hell yeah that’s rad! Salute Ping
I am excited and ready for the race! I absolutely love the bike, for the life of me I don't understand why they laid graphics over blue plastic that really throws off the looks of a super trick bike. Maybe with the blue carbon silencer it will pull it together better. It's a super trick bike I dig it!
yamaha yz250 so cool and powerful💥💥💥
Besides Kenny being great, I can't fathom how fast that bike is...OIL+GAS=YESSSSS!
Nice to hear all that acceleration,,, over the jumps of hoops ,,pretty cool! TWO STROKES!, SOUND SO COOL!!! I sinned I went 4 stroke! Lol!
That bike barks. It sounds so good.
So badass. Makes me want to get on my 2T Husky te300i! 🏍💨
Super cool !
For a minute looked like the grip was spinning on the tube, because it cut out, but it’s jetted primo and super snappy O yeah…..!
@ Roczen “A professional trainer talk about your performance, and how much it would improve without your wrist brace have you ever considered that it could be a crutch” wishing you all the best with your career brava………!
That thing sounds crisp👌
3:37 sounds so good 🔥
Snikey is a good dude... glad to see him
I love the ode to the hurricane!
Damn right! Well put.
That Pro Circuit 304 sound....vicious!
Bike looks great
Let's go Roczen!
Kenny is not used to using the clutch so much, you can tell. But he will be fine!
The perspective of the jersey he has makes him look like he packed on the pounds. Mad bike and much respect to all involved
It’s just the chest protector he wears under his jersey.
What a mistake it was to move away from 2 stokes. Sounds so crisp.
God I love two strokes
Love it! Wish they could have found some yellow plastics for that sweet bike!
#Yamaha racing 🏁 baby!
pretty damn crisp go kenny
Damn they run that thing LEAN!!!
