Well of course I would recommend honda and dave & daniel will come back with yamaha but either way I would stay away from a 4 stroke 250 from a maintenance view. 2 strokes are pretty cheap to buy and maintain.

I am curious to see how that is on a 2 stroke. The guy also gave me a
new set of wheels and tires but the wheels have not been laceed up
with spokes yet, anybody know how to do this? Anybody rode a 2 stroke
with a rekluse on it? He said that he wasn't sure if he like it but
kept it on it to justify spending the 500 bucks on it.Its got the uual
mods like pipe, reeds, flywheel weight, & new top end(which every 2

Forgot tho...I've never ridden a 2 stroke with a recluse clutch or laced rims before but we could give it the ol college try. All those extras should set you up perfect for the woods. You going to try an occra race with it?

How she pulls thru ok...I'm sure she will be fine. Just let me know when you want to ride, I usually try to hit draper on wednesday nights after work. I have heard if those tires...supposed to be good...I think there fire soft dirt but can't remember.
Sounds like you got one heck of a deal for what you paid! Glad you were able to find something and by the way...congrats on loosing your training wheels. :-)

not to mention that the suspension was just redone by marshall's for a

since I won't be having my ACL done anytime soon, but I figured RV did
it for a couple years so I can too, also pacie (my oldest girl) had
her surgery friday and has been doing fine but starting running a
really high fever today and we have been fighting it to go down and
stay down so the next couple days might be out of the question. I am
thinking about yanking off the wheels tonight and and unlacing them
since I will have to use the same stock hubs. Anybody heard of the

It sounds like you have a fork bleeder on only one fork. No big deal. I think I might have an oddball one laying around here somewhere. If not you could buy a pair and end up with a spare. they aren't too expensive.
You can adjust the z-start clutch. does it have the perch adjuster on the clutch cable near the lever?
You probably will want to start shopping for a perch adjuster. It will 
let you use the clutch lever for over-ride. In other words you will be 
able to use your clutch when you need to. If you have the perch adjuster 
you can adjust the engagement from the handlebars. It is possible that 
the gap is too small on the clutch right now but before you jump to that 
conclusion you need to adjust the spring that is hooked to the clutch 
actuator. It should have two lock nuts so you can adjust it. You want to 
add more tension on the spring if it is dragging. You can buy a slightly 
stronger spring at the hardware store if you need to.

going to be in okc anytime soon definitely let me know I will meet
you, but I might drive out there in a week or two if you aren't coming
to the city. I am not in too big a hurry because I got the bike
stripped down now and probably won't be looking to ride for another 2
weeks while I get some things fixed up on the old goat. I can not
believe rotors are so high! I've found a few things that I would like
to replace but don't have to. I am going to have to learn to draw the
line somewhere so I don't throw a bunch of money into an old bike when
I could have just bought a newer bike.

It actually turned out to be an awesome track except for the rain that came in and made it super slick. I've been sick all week so I decided to work it. Daniel had bike problems and couldn't finish. Dave got a flat tire after the third turn that set him back quite a ways and Cory was able to shine thru with a second place. Stacy represented the quads for us but like me, she has been sick but she fight thru and finished but I can't remember what place she got? No one got hurt so it was a good weekend!

Bummer you have to sell it but it's for a good reason and you can always get another one when you get out of school. Group is doing good. Occra started back up last weekend so some of us are back to racing and others are riding mx and play riding. Good luck in school and if you get a chance, look us up and we may have a bike you can borrow for a ride.
