Now even though this guy doesn't make tips and tricks videos on how to ride a motorcycle, I have learned and allot and is still learning and I just want to say thanks to him. Thanks man, appreciate your content allot
It's been a few years since I rode, but sat on a new YZ250F the other day. The ergos felt a little better, but damn that seat is stiff! I've been riding since 1988 and stand mostly, but still. New seat for sure.
Nice bike bro I have a 2016 rm-z250 I know I know it’s a Suzuki but it was a great deal I pray one day when I grow up I’ll be just like you ur so inspiring . Keep it up🎉🎉
You said you need to take it to more tracks. I wanted to suggest Wicomico Motorsports Park in Maryland. It’s my local track and it has come a long way under new ownership track is getter better all the time. It’s fun and has challenge to when ruts get formed. Congrats on new bike btw thats a sweet machine.
Wait, you are in VA. Me too - near Fredericksburg. I was thinking about getting a dirt bike again - been 20 years. Except im like man.. do i need to drive 4 hours to ride it still. Now I have to watch your vids to get some ideas of where to ride.
That's one of coolest places ever to ride..so very cool..yes the yz 250f has been king for a long time ..2025 is no different..I love me a Honda..but the yz is too much right now
@@DerekHallman LOL as LeBay says in the movie (and book) "Christine" (when referring to a new car, in this case, bike) (the smell of a new car/bike)"is the finest smell in the world..except for 😺"
@@DerekHallman I'm thinking about saving and getting one when I turn 16 and start working my birthday 01/19, does the f after 250 means it's 4 stroke meaning that I don't have to mix oil when fueling it?
Nice video! Congratulations on getting a new bike, BLU CRU FAMILY)) but, simple advice, i bet you've heard it a lot, you need to work on your technique, just for safety reasons, not for speed
@DerekHallman Thanks, but 60 amazing hrs later and the fancy tech has her parked. I'm back to ripping my 200SX w/YZ front end. BTW, me and Ken go back a few years from helping him tune his 125. Hey, maybe test his new YZ with the HITLIS power valve mod kit. The company has a rock solid YZ guru running it. Cody Webb using it after moving to Yamaha. Continued success brahda.
Just sold my 23 250fx for a 25 250x I loved the 4 stroke was a short and sweet time with it but I just didn’t feel the fun factor with it. Was almost too easy to ride, If I could have a second bike it would be a 250f
I have a 24 yz250f, stock exhaust chokes it on high revs, recommend you to replace to full yoshi or fmf and install a twin air intake filter, it will feel much better
That is the same bike that my brother has and the seat was to round and it fractured his tale bone,after he crashed for the first time so we had to get a new seat
Hey Derek, I have been riding a ktm 85 2 stroke for a few years now and I feel ready to move up. I’m thinking a 250 4 stroke, what would you recommend?
Congrats on the freshie! Does the frame have a “break in” like the KTMs? I rode a 24 250f a few months back and it’s crazy loud compared to my ktm with that airbox up front. The thinner shrouds feel way better than the previous gen.
Thanks dude. I'm sure it has somewhat of a break in period on both the frame and suspension but I don't know for certain. These yamis are definitely LOUD I can barely hear my own thoughts while riding 😆
Hey man I was just wondering when you gonna get this newer model. 😈 How would you rate this bike riding position for someone height like 6.1??? Cannot wait to try this thing it sound the best. 🇬🇧😎
hey derek, I have a question, in the future i want to get a brand newish bike. Currently I have a wr400f and I like it, but I really like these new 250s, Would you say for a new track rider but not new at riding straight on flat ground, should I get a ktm 350? which is about the same power as my wr400, or would I still enjoy and most likely not outgrow the 250?
Aye, honest opinion frm you. Ive scouting out this nice honda cr250, big bore kit (im a fricken madman for big wheels), the whole lineup. Problem is, offer doubled down to 6k. Do you think its worth if i js buy a whole set, or if i just buy each piece indivvidually?
I think it feels way better than my KX all-around. Everyone prefers different things, but for me the YZ has a better engine, suspension, rider triangle, and now chassis. My 21 KX250 had a better chassis than my 22 YZ250F, but this new 25 feels better for sure.
Now even though this guy doesn't make tips and tricks videos on how to ride a motorcycle, I have learned and allot and is still learning and I just want to say thanks to him.
Thanks man, appreciate your content allot
Thank you so much for watching man I appreciate you!
Can definitely tell you were comfortable on her. Awesome riding and video as always. Looking forward to the next one 😂
Thanks buddy let's ride again soon!
Damn that thing corners SOO good
Deegan better watch out 😂
Seat and Suspension. Noted. ❤
New seat fo sho. Suspension felt way better by end of day.
Same here
It's been a few years since I rode, but sat on a new YZ250F the other day. The ergos felt a little better, but damn that seat is stiff!
I've been riding since 1988 and stand mostly, but still. New seat for sure.
looking to get one soon my man this vid is just convincing me more!!.
Happy to provide motivation :) got more on the way! Go get that yami 😁
These videos fill the void for me. My bike keeps finding little things to keep me off.
Glad I can help, but fix it up and get rippin !
Nice bike bro I have a 2016 rm-z250 I know I know it’s a Suzuki but it was a great deal I pray one day when I grow up I’ll be just like you ur so inspiring
. Keep it up🎉🎉
Probably the best all-round bike on the market.
That 25 yz is a beast. Beautiful machine . Congrats. Dam it sounds good also!
thanks Chris!
I’m riding my 25 250fx for the first time this weekend!
Sweet bike bro!
Thank you dude, big fan of your vids !
@@DerekHallman Much appreciated man, I've been binge watching your videos all day, if you're ever in SC let's ride!
I almost bought a YZ250, ended up getting a CRF250R and it has had nothing but problems. Great video!
On the 25 crf250r?
@ 2008 crf250r
Love my 24 250. These new bikes do corner very very well thats the first thing I noticed
Dang. You ride that thing like a champ
Congrats man, you deserve it❤
Feels illegal to be this early
It is. I have a warrant for your arrest 🚔
Congrats Derek!!!! Rippin!! 🤙🏻
thank you sir!
yall so lucky bc the tracks are still dry and at us in romania the tracks are like a poll soakin wet
I love like 30 min away from there😂😂
i got a 2025 to and i FUCKING LOVE IT. its so much better then my trail bike, it feels good on a supercross track to, but I'm a bigger(NOT FAT) rider.
It’s better than Kawasaki?

Thanks for the suggestion I'll definitely come ride Wicomico soon!
Should be good conditions this weekend since it just got some rain so the dirt will be more wet.
Congrats on the new bike bro man i gotta get me a 250 someday. lol im tall and a heavy dude, so hopefully, a 250 will pull me decently lol
get a 350 and never look back
This is your bike! 👍👍👍
Beautiful sound😩
She barks 😁
Nice dirt bike you put a exhaust on it 👍

I want one for Christmas I hope I get one
always love the yams
That's one of coolest places ever to ride..so very cool..yes the yz 250f has been king for a long time ..2025 is no different..I love me a Honda..but the yz is too much right now
I’m trying to decide between a Honda , Kawasaki, or Yamaha?
amazing bike
Watching now bud
Thanks for watching!
@ yeah bitter sweet cause I got the 22 250f and love seeing the content but happy for you 😫😭🤣🦾🫡🇺🇸😁
@@yodavizion that 22 model is damn good dude! Hopefully you can still enjoy the 25 content 😁
@ post notis on bro 🦾😎
Nothing like a brand new bike to put the preload in your monoshock.
🤣

It's electric start

bro I lived in VA my whole life and i didn't even know that park was there and I lived a couple county's over 🙄🤣
Yup, '22 gave me less confidence in corners. It likes to push or tuck in a turn down. I fixed every issue with a 300SX. YAT
yessss the '22 was constantly pushing and tucking. This bike is MUCH better in corners. Hope you're enjoying that 300SX bro!
@DerekHallman Thanks, but 60 amazing hrs later and the fancy tech has her parked. I'm back to ripping my 200SX w/YZ front end. BTW, me and Ken go back a few years from helping him tune his 125.

That is the same bike that my brother has and the seat was to round and it fractured his tale bone,after he crashed for the first time so we had to get a new seat
man I missed out on a great day!
We gotta ride soon bro !
@@DerekHallman yessir!! happy holidays till then!!
yeah it’s gonna take a little bit to wear in and loosen up the frame and suspension
It felt better by end of the day but I'm sure it will just get better the more I ride
Just bought a 2025 WR 250F(on the channel) and I have the same complaint about the seat it's hard and round kills my ass lol.
New seat on order asap haha
Hey Derek, I have been riding a ktm 85 2 stroke for a few years now and I feel ready to move up. I’m thinking a 250 4 stroke, what would you recommend?
What were you adjusting in the beginning before you took off?
@MXoud
0:59 it’s you
Nicccceeeee bro I’m deciding if i want to get a triumph or crf 250. I sold the 125 may get a yz 250 not sure yet
Choices choices.... 2 or 4 stroke? New triumphs look pretty sweet 👀
@ 4stroke
Just curious, why get the F and not FX model?
Epic

@MXoudi
It’s you 0:59
Dose that have a kick stand???
U had kx250 too...how u like compared to it??
How do you compare this motor to the ktm 250 four stroke motor?
Хочется как либо участвовать в профессиональном эндуро,но у меня Альфа 110.На таком особо нигде не поучаствуешь
Not gonna lie I will miss the 2022 yz😂
How does it feel compared to the older generation like the 22
That's what I talked about in the video 😁
Great video! How does it feel compared to ktm250sxf?
Thanks! I think it feels faster than the KTM except the very high rpm. Yami suspension is better in my opinion and it corners amazing.
I heard the newer 24s have smoother power than the older models is that true or do they still pull really hard down low
Yeah it is a little bit smoother down low but still has that strong mid range pull
What your good bike japanese 250f Yz, crf, kawasaki or Suzuki
Hey man I was just wondering when you gonna get this newer model. 😈
How would you rate this bike riding position for someone height like 6.1???
Cannot wait to try this thing it sound the best. 🇬🇧😎
I am 6'3 and I like the rider triangle. I will try lowering the pegs and a taller seat though. That always makes it more comfortable 😁

how the chassis compare to your KX ?

Serious question I really want one of these Yz 250f and I’m starting to get fast on a dirt bike do u think it would be a good bike for the trail
Yes it's good on trails 😁
what gear are you in around this track? im coming from a 2 stroke seems like a 4 stroke revs out a bit further in 2nd maybe? or is it 3rd
I'm in 3rd and 4th mostly on this track but I use second for the tight corners.
What did you do with the 22?
Sold the 2022 YZ, but I still have the Kawi and KTM
You gonna keep riding 2 strokes?
How tall are you sir ? Did you lower the suspention ?
I am 6 feet 3 inches tall, no need to lower the bike 😁
@@DerekHallman thats why i was wondering if you have lowered the suspension hahah 😁
Should I get this or the kx?
The YZ
Please get the yz!
@thatguyrides7072 why you say that? lol
@@funnyshiznit100 No special reason, I just think that it is an amazing bike and better looking than the kawi
My bike took 6-8 hours for the suspension to break in.
Good to know, what bike do you have?
24 yz250f
Rip that
It sound like ur letting off on Jumps
Yes I coast over jumps
I feel like he’s sponsored by Yamaha…
I wish 🤣
