DB gets a 2 Smoke!
Bought myself a 1981 YZ 250 at the weekend, just like the one I raced, but yellow. Needs a bit of work, not a runner yet, but plan to try and race it at the vintage MX meetings, until the wife finds out. http://www.tenere.co.uk/forum/posting.p ... 750024.jpg[/img]

My brother had one of them, but he had a few gearbox problems.The YZ that I had was the same as this only white, I ran it for two seasons with no problems, just chain and sprockets, cables and reed valve, and new rings!

Got to love a grunty old two stroke. Will look forward to following the rebuild (lots of photos hint hint).
The fame was like a drug, but what was more like a drug was the drugs.

It's hilarious riding them with modern bikes,you get some very odd looks when you have a good result against a load of monster energy laced teenagers on modern 250fs...
