Racer X Films: Garage Build 2011 Yamaha YZ250 GNCC Race Bike
Спорт
Who doesn't love the sounds and smells of two-strokes? For this build we took an older two stroke and did everything we could to make it competitive with modern race bikes.
This time we went in a different direction, gearing this bike for the off-road GNCC series instead of a closed course motocross bike. Instead of racing 30 minutes, this bike was built for technical and tight 3 hour races, which means taking a completely different approach.
Bike: 2011 Yamaha YZ250

We decided to spare no expense and build a bike for America’s premier off-road championship: the Grand National Cross Country Series.

This is my type of Offroad Motorcycle video! First half of clip with detailed shots of the bike and explaining the extra parts, second - ripping it with an orgasmic two stroke sound! Hell yeah guys, that's what I want to see more often!
Very cool to see cerakote outside of the firearms industry!
I had a 07 kx 250 port and polished. pc exhaust, and also jetted. Best sounding bike I heard yet.
Love that there is at least one guy out there that doesn’t wear shades for these types of videos.
hell yeah dude finally a good off road build, a good off road review and rode by one of the best gncc racers. only one thing was missing, a rough estimate cost of how much to build, if it was normies like us building it. dope ass bike tho.

I also would love to know the cost to even get a bare minimum gncc ready bike
MXA could learn a lot about how to do a "build" video from this! Review, sound, show, and parts break down. Always room for improvement but great video:) Thanks!! 👍
A very nice and special upgrade for sure !!!
Yz has the best sounding 250, prove me wrong

This is pretty much exactly what I want to build for my next bike.
Superb build!

Sick bike
Sick!
So sick 😍
Ayyyyyeee, my lifelong number has been 224 (don’t race anymore but I still run it).

Ricky, you get to pop the cherry!!
Nice vid, BUT why didn't you go into what was done to the motor? (Flywheel weight, woods porting, head mod...) Help us out here. Or was the engine characteristics kept as a MX race bike?
I cerakot my guns, didn't think about that for a bike.

@Badass Busta Brown sweet. That is pretty much for a graphic scheme if I remember correctly. I was thinking about it for a cz scorpion I have
You can never trust a review where the person gives a 10/10 rating.

Mabey you just always have to find something to bitch about
That's too nice of a bike to ride in the woods I'd be afraid of getting it dirty lol
So was this kept a stock motor other than doing the fine finish in the transmission that’s all that was mentioned other than saying like 3 times it was a lot of work that went into it so what was it racerx???
Good old wv hills
HELLO BAN NHA.TOI RAT DAM ME LOAI XE NAY BAN BAO GIA TIEN NHE XIN CAM ON BAN.
I love a custom build!!! KTM 300 the most
We put alot of good parts on this build. The bike is really good. It's really good.
That sound clip at the end tho
what would be the cost of this bike as it seats ?
One dislike, Damn thumper guys lol

Make that 25. The 4 stroke army is getting bigger. We need to get on our YZ250s and show em the way back home.
looked up the web for tank dont see it where would i get one from?
Who uses the clutch to shift?
Can you provide more information on this "Pro Gears.com"? I can't find anything on them and I'm interested.
The guru approves.
Love to know the $ amount that was spent on this bike
How far can a tank of oil go? What is the proportion of oil mixed?
@RelentlessCo
5 жыл бұрын
大内大内高手 in Yamahas it’s usually 32 ounces of oil to every gallon 32/1 , all depends how the bike is jetted etc
What riding gear is that.

People have been Ceracoating their AR's and Glocks for years.
Interesting that they didn't use a YZ250X...
he forgot to mention the 2 stroke is more fun.
That rear looks like it could have more rebound it was kinda slow coming back down
Bike probably has never even been ridden since this video

First
the vet i bought the bike from, did all the black power coating looks like crap.heavy and slow,how is the best way to remove the black coating? black makes a bike look old ,heavy and slow.what a waste,
He was going the wrong way in the beginning
this is definitely NOT the toughest race😭😭
💦💦💦
Prefer KTM/Husky they developing 2 strokes and R&D.

No doubt the yz is a good bike but you're absolutely right, Yamaha hasn't really changed theirs sinse 2006. KTM has never stopped developing theirs, I recently got a go on brand new KTM 125. I never knew 125s could go that fast! 😮😂
