- Crazy 2 Strokes. We love to build them. We love to ride them. Now its time to race them! Yep, its time for the incredible 2023 YZM 500 (aka the Yzilla) to take to the race track for the first time. This BRC racing powered Yamaha 2 Stroke is an absolute beast, and this is the first time the big 500cc YZ has been raced anywhere in the world.

Great race, that RM125 shows how nimble and rapid the 2 strokes were.. light and enough power to embarrass anybody in real life.
Yeah. The RM 125 turns like a Swiss army knive.
@@henrikrudehvid3067 with some kids on it maybe..lol
I clicked the like before I see it because it’s obviously going to be awesome,it goes without saying 👍🏻
Haha thanks Tess.
👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Epic ride from Mat , Epic build Max , the fella on the Rm125 was Epic as well ...Next step Nev Bradshaw 🤗
That chassis is killer , that suspension looks incredible, and he can ride that thing
Get Nev on that for a few motos
Absolutely loved this! Great video. I had the opportunity to race a friend's CR500 in the eighties... never again, they are absolute beasts.
Thanks Trevor
This guy is very good , the bike is so awesome we need more of them , we need to bring back the open class , very cool and thanks to Shawn Smith
in the 80s i had a yz465 ,it was ahandful to ride ,but much fun..greetings from the philippines
The 500 and 490 dogging it out is epic. Get that adrenaline rush going. Awesome
we couldn't believe our eyes when a 490 pulled up next to the yzilla in the first race....awesome :)
Sean wringing the spuds off it ! Fair play !!
Check out my LC build . Hope to have it on the road in a few weeks ; )
Great video @999lazer , Max, Phil, Roland!
Thank Guys, you have built an amazing motor and we are so proud to work with you on this project. What you do for two strokes is incredible and I know the subscribers of 999lazer will appreciate it too. For us to own a none vibrating modern big bore 2 stroke is amazing and we can't wait for the next race. Any one who is lucky enough to get their hands on one will be genuinely blown away.
Sean did awesome
I hope I can still ride like that at 51 :) Thanks for watching Jeremy
@@999lazer no doubt, I hope I can still twist the throttle at 51 , awesome vids I love the channel, it's everything that I get into myself and to watch someone else doing it to is so cool , I wish I could test more bikes but Ive got your channel for me to see the bikes I've never ridden, thank you so much
Getting older doesn't allways mean getting slower.
My way to quell arm pump is to stretch, stretch, and stretch some more. Before race day, during and after. You will get used to it after a while.
And you can get away with absolute murder on a 125 because they are so light.
A good thing about a 500 is you can go outside on every turn and still have plenty of power to pass on the straights.
Great vid and good to see you can still put an old 490 up with the modern bikes, and proves you don’t have to have the latest and greatest bike to be competitive.
it just shows what beasts the lads were to race 500s for 45 minutes back in the day . great vid 👍
It certainly does, I don't know how they held on for 45 mins... and the yzilla has a counterbalance shaft so there are no vibrations
Still different than a bike from back then though! They were heavier for sure :)
What a bike , hats off to Sean for jumping on that new build and doing so well against those younger riders also , well done
Great video Max, great racing , great work by team Max getting the yzilla race ready with Shawn , another top production mate.
Thanks Kevin
Never mind the bike, Sean's a beast for riding it like that straight out of the box. Respect !!!
Well done Sean
Cheer John ,Sean did a great job,
Props to the lad on the Rm125
She’s a clean beast ✌🏼
im 62 still moto in so cal Sean is a awesome rider hats of to the man for riding the 5oo yzilla what a race had me on the edge of my seat
Very good! Hopefully Mr. Bradshaw can also race the YZilla. That will be fun to see as well.
Nev will be next to race the beast :)
I thought that you wouldn't be able to top the 250 / V-twins. I was wrong.😃
I had so much fun watching this video, I watched it twice!! Kudos to you and your crew!!! Great one!!! Could smell that pre-mix.
Please keep up the great work 👍. And it doesn't hurt to cover, AS MANY AS YOU CAN MOTORCYCLES!!! All types and sizes, makes and models, the list is endless.
From Northern California, can't wait for the next one!!!
Awesome, Glad you enjoyed it Gonzo:)
Love the content I own a 2018 rmz 450 but doing my research on 2 stroke and 4 stroke I love 2 strokes thanks to this channel I hope to own a 2 stroke one day love from New Zealand thanks 999lazer
Thanks Odin, I'm sure you'' love a 2 stroke when you get hold of one.
Another banger max. Well done. Love seeing the old school mx reminds me of my youth. Video qualities getting better and better 🤘🏻
Glad you enjoyed it
Yes!…its what I’ve been waiting for👊 Sean did a great job on the yzilla. Great racing by Sean & great coverage as always by you & your dad, luv the channel Nax keep up the great work 👏👏👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)
Bravo !!! Great race & so fun to watch...
I found a cure for arm pump when I was racing. A regular regimen of masturbation alternating arms does the trick. It’s training like any other muscle. You use the tools you have. 😂
Definitely more speed to come on the Yzilla suspension needs more set up, great to see them big 2 strokes on a flat track they haul ass 💨🚀
SWEET!!
Awesome seeing you guys get that thing in the real world. Nice riding and thanks for the great content!
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching
Congrats fellas 👌👏🏼 Absolute Blast ✊👊😉✌️
Awesome channel 👍🏻
Thank you 👍
Nice to see big 2 strokes back on the track! Keep 'em coming?!
it sure is. Stay tuned we have another big bore build series coming very soon ;)
So 125 won 500? Suspension not so planted in the rear?
That bike is SO DAMN BEAUTIFUL!!! I'm the middle of doing my '21 YZ250 in white & red. Next year....BRC 500 kit hopefully
All smiles! Love it
The yzilla is a smile machine for sure :)
Great ride, looked to be an awesome event, 👍
Thanks for watching Mark, it was a fun day on an awesome old school track
Awesome racing and the YZILLA sounds so sweet and it rips.
Thanks for watching Kevin
It looked rock hard in the first round but a lot better by the third - though it still looked a little on the stiff side considering the track. Its the same story as the old 500's used to be - its all about trying to put that power down.
Shawn is obviously a talented guy but lets be honest you don't expect to go out on the first race day with pretty much no testing and an unknown bike and get podium places. The guy on the 490 goes well because he's probably ridden it until its pretty much part of him.
Imagine what this thing is going to go like once you've got some hours on it and its dialled in properly.
As it is a class win and 2nd overall for a guy in his 50's on a bike thats barely turned a wheel is an amazing achievement.
Thanks Si. I'm sure Sean will really appreciate your comment :)
@@999lazer He's got to be happy with that performance. I'm real impressed he can just jump on a bike he's had hardly any time on and get it right in the top of the races straight from the off.
Sorry about spelling his name wrong too. I saw it spelled that way in some of the comments and should have checked.
Awesome work guys such an awesome bike and the rider he is spectacular for his age that is for sure
Thanks Troy, really appreciate your comment :)
Dam impressive👏👏👏love it ✌️
Thanks for watching :)
Man YZilla is awesome , but damn that guy on the RM is quick.
2stroke 4 eva! ⚡🤘
Love that thing
Great video
Seeing the original blue bike it looks so much better in white ✊🏻🔥💨
Hi max 😄😄😄❤️❤️😄 Sean guys another epic vlog wicked next vid I think 🤔🤔🧐 with jumps have a great 👍👍😁 day to great rider fr old vet to magic ✨⭐
Thanks Chris, yep we need some jumps next time :)
Nice "Old Style" Track! Suspension way to stiff for this kind of Tracks!
He's quick as f 🤠😎🏞️🍻🎸
Club racing is brill and I used to love bursting those berms 👏
Nice riding competition got you in the turns maybe with a little more time on the YZilla could take them all.
Make a yz1000 dirt bike
Excellent 😜👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Did that new fancy YZ 500 get passed by an old school air hammer YZ490? Lol
Where are theis races held as this looks more my cuppa tea for racing
This was at Silverstsone. Coventry MX Club :)
If it was Bradshaw it would of win every race, Shaun done well though, great video
have a problem on rear shock
Great bike man but if I built a bike I'd definitely be the one racing it lmao
1000th like 😎👍🇦🇺 how much for the pair. YZilla + Kong 🤤
the bike on the track has a hygee pipe, it increases the power very much
and it looks awesome too:)
@@999lazer a dyno graph comparison to the brc pipe would be awsome as well
Niceeee but not the first time
What up bro
👍👍👍👍👍😊❤️
😎🤘☠️
👏👏👏👍💯😎✊
The fact he got PASSED by a 125 like wasn't even off his stand just goes to show that bike is not being used all the way I don't understand why he did all this just to let some older guy ride it get someone who can actually ride the bike to it's potential
What kind of race is this? No jumps?
Nothing is more annoying but funnier when you have one of the slowest crashes.
Mx with no jumps. How do I find out more about that????#scaredofair
The yz500 doesn't look like it turns very sharp
Wish it was Bradshaw instead of.. that guy can’t rip like the way Neville Bradshaw did on modern 500.
What in the hell is a y zet???
Video is shot from the head up, kinda sucks not to see the bikes the whole time.
Rm125 is better…
is that a joke?
Hahahaha a old 490 beat your 500 haha
Why do you put 4 stroke guys on a 2 stroke when you do a comparison? Your comparisons mean nothing. Seems like you are trying to destroy any real comparison.
