This is one of the best set up videos I’ve seen. Thanks for taking the time to set this up! 🤟🇨🇦🤟

That looks like so much fun going over all those downed trees in the path.

i love everytime you give us some tips and info sir... good luck

that review was a breath of fresh air .

Good stuff. I had a 2018 250x and loved it! I'm on a yz125x and really enjoy it!

nice video mate, I ride a yz250x a few weeks ago. I like hard enduro and I also noticed that the original 14/50 transmission is very fast for trail riders, maybe it's better for mx, so I rode 13/50 and it rides calmer, with better lowering. greetings from Chile. 08-28-2022

You have a great taste in your bike set up. Kudos..!!

Thanks man! just bought a 21 and I'm probably gunna do everything you just listed to it! Exactly what I was looking for!

Lots of great set up tips, I didn't expect this much great info, thanks! Also, thanks for no MIDROLL ADS, I let opening and closing ads run and encourage others to do the same.

Rolling on to this vid late but wow this Jason guy is on his game. Everything he stated was spot on. I also do not like wrap around guards, they are dangerous. Anyway, great ride and excellent set up!

Great video. Definitely best setup video I have seen. Please more videos on this type of riding and the yz250x. Good job man

I tried one of those and those bikes are AMAZING !

Good info thanks my son looking at one of these

I love the comment about your neighbor at the end. Haha

@ 12:03 is perfect terrain man you’re blessed to be able to have that dirt.

Good point on the flags as far as clipping trees. I do notice a major jerk when i clip a tree with my full wrap guards. I only run full wraps to protect my levers and more importantly my hyro clutch

Thank you! 😎

This is a well done video, I'm sorry I just found it now. Enduro engineering made a name for themselves, and now I think they just ride that out. Thanks for the vid!

I'm on a woods converted 2018 yz250 with backed off suspensionsettings. 3.2 gallon Clarke tank. Protaper evo woods bend bars. Stealy 13oz flywheel weight... Best mod ever... love it. I added the motion pro coolant recovery tank.. it works so good.. can't complain. Shinko mx216 fatty up front and cheater 525 rear. My yz has served me very well. Love this bike. Couldn't buy a yz250x because they sell out before season even starts here in Ontario Canada.

The wrap around saved my hands on many occasions, hit a couple trees with the husky stock off the showroom floor and my hands felt like mush. They also save your shrouds big time but its all a matter of preference.

14:20 I bought a 2018 250X new just after the launch in SA in 2017, wanted to fit a fan, our Yamaha dealer quoted me about R8k excl labour (about $400-$500) for the stator, battery, aftermarket electric starter and aftermarket fan and also an additional option for the WR headlight. It would make my bike almost 10kg heavier and with our harescramble and cross country races containing a bit of mx and endurocross type of stuff I kept it standard to keep the weight down, when we had tight and slow terrain I made sure to mix my 2 stroke 1:20 and 96% concentrate coolant, but when exiting the heavy stuff I had to rev the motor up to burn the 2stroke off the plug as I lost power on the straights when exiting the heavy terrain, but with the correct jetting and few fine tunes to the motor my bike kept up with the 450’s and 500’s with 6 speed gearboxes.

Great review of the mods you've done and awesome riding! It's good to see that for technical woods riding you don't necessarily need a European bike!! It can be done on a YZ250X! Where are you riding? It looks like some of the trails in Squamish BC?

I feel like removing that washer in the power valve is really particularly a solution for heavier guys, I'm only about 130 pounds and for me that "hesitation" is fine bike wheelies right off the bottom with me!

🔥🔥🔥

Been riding YZ's since 02. Smart carb eliminates all the carb issues; sorry for you that haven't compared back to back but its better than an electron. Never run a Pro-circuit pipe off-road unless you want to kill all the torque from idle to top end but add 2 hp at peak RPM. Fatty or Gnarly are both great. If you want a pro-circus pipe, I'll give you mine.

Was looking into the flex bars for my x, me and you are about simular in size, do you happen to remember what bend you use?? Risers? They are quite an investment, don't wanna goof it up... Anyways thanks for the awesome content!! Greetings from Texas

Do you have any experience with MAKOs? That or the Flex bars will most likely be my next addition. Keep pumping the videos out 😎

I wouldn't lend sell or trade my 250x I love it for all the riding I do. Lectron keeps it crisp. I looking at getting flex bars.

i got a 18"rear wheel with a 754 green, good tyres in the uk mud/roots

Hi great video. What about your rebound settings for woods riding

Great video! I started making the basic mods, the governor mod its amazing, also y modified mi transmision to 13/51 (at the begin i felt the bike a little lazy but it got great with some hours of use). I changed jetting kit to 175/45, im using motul coolant and works fine (we are winter right now so i'll see what happen in summer), changed mi chain guide for an acerbis plastic one, basic metal pipe cover, acerbis engine guards. Now, to keep going with the mods, i will have to spend a little more hahaha, what do you sugest to do next, flywheel mod or apex head mod? Regards from Chile mate, great chanel n video

This is the bike i want for hare scrambles/hard enduro. I would like to run a panthera e start kit, but ive heard that they cause issues

It’s a nice bike I live in Australia nsw

Jason, all your videos including this one are great content!! i am getting the itch more and more for one of these bikes now, but i just have a question or two... if you could only choose 3 of the mods you went over in this video, what would they be? i'm only wondering because one of the biggest draws to this bike is the affordability, so buying new and keeping as close to stock as possible would be ideal in terms of saving $$... just wondering if you think an average joe trail rider could get by riding this bike more or less stock with minor mods, to keep the cost down and accepting the fact that i'm not that fast or skilled anyway lol

Hey Jason,Steve form Australia- Your quite honest with your mod experiences So Q: Do you think V force reeds make much of a difference and if so are they worth the money 🤔

If Yamaha made an enduro version I would get one, need to be able to tag it like you can with the euro bikes

Hi Jason. Nice vids!! You haven't touch on your spark plug of choice. Have you tried E3 sparkplugs? Cheers!

You forgot to talk about your v force reed those makes a big difference too

Why yamamoto doesn't sell them anymore? With a estarter it would be the best

Man I got a question when u put your vforce reeds how to you put tge gaskets???

I've seen boot gasket reeds gasket spacer oem gasket is that right and which way did you put the white side of the gaskets ? Oh I dont think I got an airleak but im sketching thinking I did it wrong directions are piss poor

Could you possibly link a good video that you used to do the power valve/governor mod, just bought a 2019 250x and my dad just bought a 2021, we both notice the hesitation.

Put in the WR426 gearbox in and then you can run stock gearing.

You run atf so you're not stupid ill sub.

Hy, why you dont buy an EL start for it ? lg max

Greetings from Russia 🔥👍

Hello from Haiti! I liked your vid. I'm on the fence about getting this bike vs a husky or ktm 300 because of the tpi, which I'm scared of. What's your opinion? Also, whats the new flywheel weight?

I can not find a used 2016++ yz250 or x I'm in Northern California anyone have any recommendations they would be greatly appreciated 😄

for the skid plate did you bolt it in or did they have different mounting instructions? my yz125x sxs skidplate wants me to bolts it in.

Link to the zeta easy pull clutch perch?

Jason, Why did you choose the APEX cylinder head and not the RK TEK? It's a good price difference between them... Thanks.

Cheers! I'm Fhery A new subscriber Wed, 08 25, 2021👍🏿👍🏽👍🏻👍🏾🖐🏿 ¿Please tel me? Good question, can i turn my 2015 Yamaha 250cc 2 strokes, into e dual purpose, for long trips on & off road ?( please advice me where to buy all the parts to travel long distances)? Thnx 💥💥

I am about to trade in my fx for a X,had a 125x and loved it, the fx it's an awesome bike but I think is too heavy

Hi Jason..I also have YZ250X and my hands and wrists are sore after riding..Was wonder What Height and length Flex Bars do you use? I hear they prevent fatigue..I was thinkign of getting 10 degree Enduro High Bend? I am 6' tall

How did you mount the fastway pegs in the low position? Website says you cant on Yamaha.

For this kind of riding you need the KTM XC-W can’t be beat for gnarly stuff

Bullet proof design rad guard

panthera e start?

Thoughts on adding the E start?? Think it’s worth it

You never updated us on the weight of the flywheel weight?

I’m not being a jerk so please don’t take offense , go to the mako 360 instead of the flexx bars . They will break on you , if you look under the bar you can see where they drill and pin the bar in . In a crash or tip over it will break right there where pin is . I’ve had it happen a few times and so have a few of my friends. The mako 360 won’t ever break can go from bike to bike and works better. Again not being a jerk just trying to help , I broke mine riding hard enduro and getting out of the mountains with one hand is a bummer for entire group .

Did you drill your frame to mount the sxs slide plate?

Does yours drip some oil out of power valve vent line.?

Hmmm, never heard of using ATF in the gearbox.

Some of that stuff u werent using clutch at all or maybe just your index finger. Nice ...flywheel weight is must. How is the rider position u seem like 5,10 im 6,3..???

What prockets used for long travel on yz 250x?

What exactly have you modified to the exhaust valve?

Thinking about a magura hydro clutch?🙌🏼🙌🏼

How does the bike perform with the power valve mod? Is it more bottom end/torque? Or is it just more snappy?

Where did you get the ez pull clutch?

Hello friend, maybe your motorcycle has overheated or maybe you need to put electric fans thanks

Does your bike foul plugs when you are lugging it low

Where that gastank from and what company?

We need a bike like this in Europe, why isn't it sold?

Did you have to mod the foot pegs at all? Everything I’ve seen so far shows you have to modify stuff to make this work

Which weight flywheel weight did you add? You never added it afterwards, thanks!

Are you in Pacific Northwest?

What flywheel weight did you go with

what hour meter do you use?

What kind of premix do you use? And at what ratio?

Are you satisfied with the lack of wide tractable torque and the transmission gear ratios?

Those hand guards really protect your hands enough??

Do A maintwince video

What jetting you running.?

What brand is your fuel tank? Greetings from Brazil.

You need a stihl.chainsaw for all those frickin trees

You live in Australia?

My 2023 yz250x literally drinks gas it’s so bad on gas lol but I can’t bring myself to put an ugly aftermarket tank on it

Enduro engineering sucks the big one! Haha same customer experience with the same braces and guards on the same bike just a 2017.

Enduro Engineering braces are terrible. Had a bike that came with them and they were useless.

Why?

Y Zed LOL

If you aren't Australian don't say ZED!!! It's YZ

I wanna know why you drive yz instead of a real enduro.

Would this be a good bike to deliver gay porno to byu???? I was gonzda get a CR but I think a blue bike might get me some more business....

YZ....2 simple letters. Not YZED

Dirty bike.
