I own a YZ250 with the stock 25 mm offset triple clamps and recently got to ride an identical YZ250 with 22.5 mm offset and the difference was astounding. It’s well worth it… however if you don’t wanna spend $700-$1200 on a triple clamp set up you can do this like me: - Buy a set of triple clamps from a ‘14, ‘15, ‘17, or 2018 YZ250F/450F, they go for about $105-$170 on eBay in good condition. Bonus points if you can find a set that already has the handlebar mounts on. (2016 was a bastard year where they went back to the 25 mm offset so stay away from those.) - Then get the upper clamp bored out by a motocross shop. This should cost about $60-100. The upper clamp size changed on the four strokes, they’re about 2 mm thinner in diameter than the YZ250 two strokes. - you have to keep the stem off of your YZ 250 2-stroke as the stems on the four stroke bikes are a little shorter and won’t work. The two stroke stem works with the four stroke triple clamps. - Mount on your bike and Bam, you just tremendously upgraded the handling of your YZ250 two stroke for around $200. Your welcome.
I'm going with the10-14 YZ450f trees @ 22.5 mm offset for 100.00 I just need to press out the stem and bore out the upper 2mm and it will bolt right up. If they work out as much as you say I will mill off some of the fat for a more one off look..
I was thinking about doing that to save money the lower triple clamp bolts right in I don't think you need too press out the stem I have one and I installed no problem, only thing is the upper clamp need to be bored out.
@roberturmosi-dirtbike-atv That is easy to do I have both a Lathe and Mill. Offset is 22.5mm so that should be fine... I'll let you know how it works out..
I’m doing the same thing as we speak. The 2014 YZ 450 F triple clamps just got delivered today. I got to ride a YZ250 identical to mine that had this mod done and the difference was insane
The Urmosi mounts are the only mounts that let me use the precision steering stabilizer. Why the other mount companies haven't made an open mount setup is beyond me.
@@stangindude99 The Husky are the same. You’re set up is for easy turning and not for fast speed riding. If you one to change that use the second mark stead the third one what’s set up from factory
Great video. Any YZ250 owner knows the bike does not turn well. Can you post links of your current setup for triple clamps and bar setup? Purchase links would be great, thanks.
Yes it's changes the angle of the forks. in this case move the front wheel back closer to the engine 22mm. and that's makes a huge difference on the way the bike handle turns
Hey Robert, did you get a new bearing race with the Luxon clamps?? Do you have to install the new bearing race for the new Luxon bearings or is it ok to use the stock one if it's still in good condition or dose it not fit The new Luxon bearings??
@@roberturmosi-dirtbike-atv you used the stock bearings or the stock bearing race ? The new clamps already have new bearings installed on them but you get a new bearing race with the new clamps did you install the new bearing race ? I'm asking because the race looks a little different than the stock one , I was thinking you have to use the new one with the new bearings but I'm not sure 🤷
@@zackiaryruddick701 I used the stock bearing race. You can just put it together with the stock race see if everything moves the way supposed to be if it is then you good to go.
I you go top speed on bumps it isn't that stable then it was. but I trade that all day to have the readability what it has now. I have been riding every day with the YZ since last weekend because enjoy it that much
Got them on and a quick run around the house. I have a Scotts on my bike so I had to mill out a slot for the Scotts mount so my first test was without it hooked up and I could feel the difference right away. I can see this being the best mod I've could have done I can see it helping me out in the woods with less fighting it into turns with stage 4 COPD I need all the help I can get.. I may have to try it on my WR250F as well.. If you use the yz450f bar mounts you just need to bore out the upper or you could get a set all done from me.. ruclips.net/user/shortscyDufr366pI?si=EFreODANwABg71NJ
I got time today to get them In my mill and I got them both. 001 over stock bore. A short video of the milling.. I will install and test ride this week hopefully.. ruclips.net/video/c-3niFBNhok/видео.htmlsi=q5GCN_tj1QrQQKVl
Lol that piece of aluminum is 1K. That is 10% of the cost of the whole damn bike. Let that sink in for a minute. By the time you're done building the "perfect" bike, you could've bought a second one. I probably suck and don't notice any shortcomings but that kind of money just doesn't make sense to me. 80% rider and 20% bike as they say! I'd rather spend that money on gas or cool trips with the bike to good riding areas. I enjoy some of your content and I understand you want to make money off of it. I just think sometimes we need to step back, and look at things objectively as a leisure rider.
I understand nor everyone can afford this parts and I try to prioritize what's really stands out because I'm really picky when it comes to parts quality and workability. This are really changing the way the bike behaves. I'm not here for the money more for try to passion what I have learned it on to your guys. I actually own this company just to prove my point :urmosi.com/
Is no necessary criticism him or the product he is sharing his experience Mr Robert Thank you for your passion and professionalism We need more people like you. I love that you are looking always to find new staff to improve the motorcycle Yes could be 80% rider and 20% bike but if this apply to everyone way the professionals riders have the best products in the market? Have a great day Mr Urmosi keep bringing new staff that a little group of people will be unhappy but a big group will be thankful!!

This isn’t Yamaha related. But has me thinking. Is the triple clamp offset different on tx and te bikes?
@@stangindude99 The Husky are the same. You’re set up is for easy turning and not for fast speed riding. If you one to change that use the second mark stead the third one what’s set up from factory
Why 56 long? The site says 54 medium for the 250x
Great video. Any YZ250 owner knows the bike does not turn well. Can you post links of your current setup for triple clamps and bar setup? Purchase links would be great, thanks.
The bar set use is from urmosi.com/ the triple clamp is:www.luxonmx.com/
with Luxon triple clamp you lose the brake line guide. Where do or how do you think to guide brake line is best with Luxon triple clamps.?
I have it drilled to the side of the number and I like the way it works
When going form the 25mm to the 22.5mm offset is the inline stability affected?
@@vince5946 If you offset the wheels the high speed straight ability gets affected negatively. But you increase corner ability
What does offset mean does it change the angle of the fork steeper
Yes it's changes the angle of the forks. in this case move the front wheel back closer to the engine 22mm. and that's makes a huge difference on the way the bike handle turns
