It’s a 1981 but someone put disc brakes on the front from a newer bike. Probably the forks too.

Sweet!! Glad you are back making dirt bike videos!

Good to see another bike project, Johnny!

Yes!! look foward to these vids. Love your channel! And ofcourse wheelsnthangs but this channels where I'm at 👌👍

I have a 1980 YZ 250 air box if you’re still looking.

I might be picking up one of these for 100 bucks. Real barn find

NICE !!! greetz from europe :)

I have an air box for an 81. I’m located in Pittsburgh pa. I have a whole 1981 yz250 parts bike.

John, of you still need an air box. My sons whole collection is getting auctioned off next month. I have an 81 air box here.

Looks like an 81’ since it has gold rims and the type of stickers on the gas tank. Also 80’ had 38mm diameter forks and the 81’ had 43mm forks.

It will be a good video series for me to follow. I can sympathize with the new owner. I can see that it will be an uphill battle. At what point is a parts bike a good idea?

I just had another thought (disclaimer: I have very little experience). Since new parts are hard to find, What are going to do when you need a clutch, bearing, oil seal, etc? This will not be good for someone with OCD.

I have a yz250 1980. Air box and original mikuni carb

Hey Mr.Sshop That is not a diecast vehicle! Haha😉 Nice Bike. Take care🙂

What rim is compatible

Are you still looking for an air box? I have an 81 that might fit

John, if you need an air box. The whole collection is being auctioned off next month.

I have a complete 1980 YZ250 G the carburetor needs work and it needs new reeds I did a compression test it's only got 50 psi all plastic surgeon there including the airbox the airbox has holes cut in it I don't know why I think it's stupid but it's there if your friends willing to pay 500 bucks for it I'll ship it if you pays for that too

The reason I'm selling as I do not have the means to fix mine or the money and I'm laid off and hurting for money used this video originally to try and fix mine and quickly realize how expensive that would be and quit I'd rather give it a home to somebody that's going to take two bikes and make one complete one and have a vintage nice bike and take care of it then have it go to waste

I have an air box

That's a 79' model
