@@Mr10usdad it’s definitely not the same as it yousta be !!! Take’s a true talent to rip a 2 stroke!!! I’ve had both sold all my 4 choker’s!! Off!! Bye bye👋🏼
Watching this process makes me smile. Ken looks like he’s having fun being a free agent. Of all places, he ends up at the pro circuit test track on a pro circuit YZ 250 for the red Bull Street rhythm. They fly him in on the helicopter and then fly him out by helicopter. I think he’s really enjoying himself just being able to bounce around and do it for the love of it. I think this is a better business model for Ken now that he’s at the latter part of his career. He should just enjoy himself and race whenever he wants on whatever bike he wants. His name has enough star power that he can do that and bring a draw with him wherever he goes. Good luck Kenny , I’m pulling for you & PC/Ping.
2-SMOKER LOOKS SICK & KENNY LOOKS FREAKY FAST!! WHAT A COUPLE OF LEGENDS , KENNY, MICH !! LOVE EM BOTH !! ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻👍🏻👌🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼🔥HOPE YOU KILL IT @ STRIGHT RYTHEM!! 🏆🏆🏆🎖
Mitch is a wizard! And Mike Schnikey has always been a part of cool great builds. Remember when he tuned the 125cr for lamson in 07. Ken looks good already, and the bike sounds amazing. I think ping can approve that the engine package is unreal!
That might just be the coolest looking bike I have seen since the 1983-4 works Hondas…it’s just that classic Yamaha bumble bee livery😍. Does it for me every time I see it run on a bike!
I miss the stinger ends! Tried to find one for my ‘05 yz125 but no luck. My roommate’s ‘00 yz125 had one like they all did back then and it looked kickass.
You know, and I'm sure that I can speak for everyone, it's great to see Kenny doing whatever he wants... For the moment. Best of Luck on the PC Yamaha !!
@@Davido50 A regular schmuck can have a perfectly tuned bike as well man. Just gotta understand what parts of the carb to adjust & what a properly tuned engine should sound like.
@@Davido50 for the record you can get this engine spec, except the stamps om the pipe and the special blue custom made silencer for this race. Ping have it, and its based of mitch and r.v made 2019.
It's gonna be so sick! I'm pumped for tomorrow. Can't wait! I love the throwback yellow and I love that Roczen is on a Pro Circuit Yamaha built by Mitch Payton. So sick.
Kawi guys al looking on wtf why don't we have a 2023 2t 250, Hannah retro version, looks sick btw, how its done, good work Kenny you look good in Yamaha OW colors!
For a minute looked like the grip was spinning on the tube, because it cut out, but it’s jetted primo and super snappy O yeah…..! @ Roczen “A professional trainer talk about your performance, and how much it would improve without your wrist brace have you ever considered that it could be a crutch” wishing you all the best with your career brava………!
Looks faster through the whoops now than he has for past 2 supercross seasons! Looks like BluCru might add another win to the list for 2022.. killing it! Can’t wait to see how good the 23’s are!
I am excited and ready for the race! I absolutely love the bike, for the life of me I don't understand why they laid graphics over blue plastic that really throws off the looks of a super trick bike. Maybe with the blue carbon silencer it will pull it together better. It's a super trick bike I dig it!
Ken said, over a year ago, that he didn't need the money; he was in it for the fun. This is what fun looks and sounds like.
He also said he hated 2 strokes !
@@thebanditabromowiczhe also conceded A hole.
Nothing is better than a perfectly tuned two strokes.
When it comes on a pro rider hands it gets pure gold 🔥❤️
Imagine how much more popular motocross would be if the two strokes came back.

Weeellll..... Except ANY 4stroke...
Bbbbbrrrraaaaappppp!!!!
Ken always always always has looked so good. This is THE UGLIEST BIKE AND GEAR COMBO I HAVE EVER SEEN
One of the fastest guys to ever ride a dirt bike. Have fun Ken
Ille reply as Ken
Thanks man gonna rip it

Box vans,two strokes, Mitch! Pure excellence!
When you see this, Ken on a Yamaha 250 yz and you would have never expected it, you know why you love motocross so much!
Whoa... box van, idle air screw adjustment, AND the best looking Yamaha I've seen in a long while. Thank you Ping, Mitch and KR!
It just hit me, this sounds like a long time ago!
Thing sounds CRISPY perfect jetting.
That sound is pure heaven and evil at the same time. What a 2 stroke can do to the landscape is fun
David Pingree is an asset to the Mx community. Always striding to help others. Would love to shake your hand some day. God bless you sir.
the only problem with pingree is how old he reminds me that I am. 😄
One of the most naturally gifted riders the sport has seen
The 15/91 interchange traffic is so bad Kenny rents a helicopter.... damn
Ken on a 2 stroke.now were talkin!2 stroke needs to come back in a big way. Glad yamaha is still building them.Yellow/Black is back. Awesome!!!
Love the two stroke sound. When I think motocross, I still think about that sound.
I raced in the old days of MX in the US, so I love that yellow n' black paint job!
Stoked to see Ping and Mitch together. If every city in America had a little supercross track like this, freedom would brap!

Yamaha always looks best in yellow and black
2stroke sounds so sweet baby,
my heart beatings so past if I hear the sounds🤗💗

Love Mitch's passion for the sport. You can see buzz he get watching guy's ride his bikes.
If mitch is willing to build the old stinger pipe with blue carbon WTF that would be AMAZING!!!!
I miss the stinger ends! Tried to find one for my ‘05 yz125 but no luck. My roommate’s ‘00 yz125 had one like they all did back then and it looked kickass.
listening to Ken rip that through the whoops makes me so happy.
Man that bike sounds amazing. He looked great in the whoops. Dudes so smooth. What a Rockstar move with the heli too
Thanks to all the people who made it happen .✊️✊️✊️
You know, and I'm sure that I can speak for everyone, it's great to see Kenny doing whatever he wants... For the moment. Best of Luck on the PC Yamaha !!
Was glad to hear Kenny talk about how much he loved the 2 stroke and the setup.
I remember watching Ken race as a kid back in 🇩🇪 . He would declass all the other riders. What a talent.
Yes I watched him since he started the GP, I think he was 15 years old at that time, on a 250 rmz if I recall..Great rider.
Sounds so crispy ⚡️great bike and video!
Well it's highly professionally tuned for Ken.

Ping, always looking how you can help others! Your the best buddy have a blessed day
Long live the 2stroke !👍🏻👍🏻❤️😁
Between this and doing world SX Ken's got a new fan here
I like the look of that 94 on a Yamaha. Nothing better than an early morning at Glen Helen either.
Kawi guys al looking on wtf why don't we have a 2023 2t 250, Hannah retro version, looks sick btw, how its done, good work Kenny you look good in Yamaha OW colors!
My god that bike looks and sounds amazing. Ken is a legend. It’s so cool to see him having a blast on that thing
...already looks better than a yellow Suzuki.
Man I like free agent Kenny, that bike is sick, go get em K-Roc
Mitch best man of the Planet four years and years racing
Haulin' & Ballin' #94!
Would be freaking dope if star racing yamaha would line up kenny on a 250 ringdinger with those thumpers
I love the original 1980's YZ graphics!
Mitch is awesome such a cool guy
Wow! Back to a box van. Love the sound.
Like the 70s colors and sound!
Happy to see Ken just enjoying himself being a bit more free, mich is the man period.
Nice job David! Thanks for doing this!!

Outro of the year 🤟🏻
Awesome seeing Ken back on a 2 smoker, straight rhythms gonna be badass 👌
Looks faster through the whoops now than he has for past 2 supercross seasons! Looks like BluCru might add another win to the list for 2022.. killing it! Can’t wait to see how good the 23’s are!
Gotta be one of the best videos you’ve done! Raw comes to mind. Can’t wait to watch the race!
Finally a new Yamaha that is the correct color!
2 strokes shouldve never went away 4 strokes allow people with less bike skill to do more imo..being in the right gears no engine braking etc
How cool is this!? Mitch and Kenny!!
Love the old school graphics. 👍
That engine is incredible
Man! With all the injuries/set backs and illness, imagine Ken at 💯. He's a beast amidst everything he's dealt with physically.
I really enjoyed watching this.
Wow even made the side panels gray like the old OW works yamahas. Nice I like it! Good luck Ken!
Yep, old look colors/graphics kinda…newer bike! Looks great, sounds great, IS great! Great rider in Roczen too!
I swear I can smell it!❤️
That sound is fucking glorious. It's like an angel signing.
Besides Kenny being great, I can't fathom how fast that bike is...OIL+GAS=YESSSSS!
yamaha yz250 so cool and powerful💥💥💥
KR is the new MC! God damn rock star! I love it!!!!
Mitch's bikes are always awesome. How cool it is of Ping to offer up his bike for KR to ride?
Sweet PC YZ@!
The perspective of the jersey he has makes him look like he packed on the pounds. Mad bike and much respect to all involved
It’s just the chest protector he wears under his jersey.
feels like the early 2000s, 2 strokes and private flights
One of my favorite races to watch, can’t wait.
Wishing him the best!
That’s the best sounding yz250 Iv ever heard
Ping bring it home with Mr Payton. Great job guys, SR will be epic this year
I am excited and ready for the race! I absolutely love the bike, for the life of me I don't understand why they laid graphics over blue plastic that really throws off the looks of a super trick bike. Maybe with the blue carbon silencer it will pull it together better. It's a super trick bike I dig it!
This has me wanting to go buy another 2 stroke! lol
Poetry in motion!
This is Kenny having fun and I wanna see more of it! Keep rippin’ and doing you Ken!🤙🏻
This is bad ass on so many levels. Great job guys!
3:37 sounds so good 🔥
I like the yz but it would have been cool to see him drag the RM250 he has in his shed out for a run, that is a cool looking bike
Yea was hoping the same!
That bike barks. It sounds so good.
Hell yeah! That’s bad ass!! Can’t wait to see ken kick some ass on that yz!
This video was a great way to start the day.
Snikey is a good dude... glad to see him
I love the ode to the hurricane!
Damn right! Well put.
Kenny is not used to using the clutch so much, you can tell. But he will be fine!
Mr. Payton the best 👌
That thing sounds crisp👌
God I love two strokes
Super cool !
Hell yeah that’s rad! Salute Ping
Love it! Wish they could have found some yellow plastics for that sweet bike!
What is that piece called on roczen wrist?
Those are wrist braces
Thank you
That Pro Circuit 304 sound....vicious!
i like the retro 1980s YZ yellow stickers they put over the current color blue bike, are those avail to buy ?
#Yamaha racing 🏁 baby!
Badass colors and design on Kenny..
So badass. Makes me want to get on my 2T Husky te300i! 🏍💨
