This is the best bike to buy if you find it for sale. Yeah it's been raced, but you can't run it at this level every weekend if you don't take damn good care of it, especially a 4 stroke.
Jacob Holinaty I believe he means 250f as in 250 four stroke, I think everyone or at least most people realise this isn’t a trail bike, I own an 150f and they sound way different to the 150r
Abraham Shell and this kids is why Abraham always gets las... Because he rides like a pussy... By the way no good rider ever worried about blowing up their bike while they're winning a race... But the guys in the back might... But then agen that's why they're in the back
@@228mx6 no it doesn't lmao it just sounds like someone that can't shift gears, reving the holy fuck out of it on the air I can get sometimes you have. Ain't the first soul gonna have a 250f 5th tapped all the way out lmao. I know maybe 1 practice track I can even get my 450f into 5th gear.
@@billyboots3730 if your hitting the limiter on a four stroke you aren't going anywhere they dont pull in the top, half way through the top of each gear they stop pulling. A 2 stroke is completely different and needs to be road at the peak of each gear. I'm just speaking from experience I've raced for about 15 or so years now.
I wish I could like your comment twice, if you've ever done a berm, it's so sketchy... Oh my god there's just no way to describe how fast this kid is, lol balls of steel
this kids is how you show that you're a bamf at the track and aren't a pussy who sits inside all day playing fortnite and end up a virgin the rest of your life.
This is truly badass! I can only hope that someday i can put in enough hard work and effort to ride like you! But I promise i will work my ass off practicing!
You lead the whole race lad. We’ll done. I’ll deffo move on to HONDA after watching this amazing Moto. Thanks so much for sharing and that’s what I call MOTOCROSS mate. We’ll done
I'll die mixin' gas but damn do the 4T's sound good - I can hear my buddy Kris' YZF250 behind me even when he's off-throttle into corners..if i get too far off i'll slow down so i can hear it again ;-)
This is a moto video I never forget I come back every few months and watch the whole thing... This dude is on absolute RAILS, if he’s got the cash to rebuild it might as well go out there and go for the fucking win. Wack to see all these people judging this guy, He won the race......
Rule 1 about 4 strokes. Never roll into the corner whith the clutch in Ruel2: no need to hold the bike on the limiter as the power comes from the mid to low And heres a 3: i would love to see you ride a 250 2stroke
the honda 250 and 450 both make their power up top man I've had both smooth low end but not explosive like the yamaha but endless top end, its bike dependent and set up dependent. This dude probably grew up on two strokes so he knows how to keep her up top.
dude you rode that bike like you stole it total respect for you James Roberts and that's how you ride a 4stroke ride until the rev limiter don't listen what the haters have to say
Ignore these guys! Who cares how you ride your bike! You still kicked everyone's butt. If that's the way you ride then good for you! We all have things we do that others don't agree with in our riding styles! Keep killing it, BRAAAAAAP!
Pendlezzzzz um no they are not to.. he wasn't even shifting he put it in 3 and stayed they the hold moto prob besides the start... I say a race or 2 that bike will need at total overhaul
Then u will get a taste of what that bike is capable of, cuz the one in the vid is also a CR250F, but obviously raced tuned, probably nugging the same power as a stock 450. vid was not speed up bud :).
Clayton Kitner Its just isnt edited, there is no reason in the universe to speed up the vid for any known reason on this planet, the guy who uploaded the vid said himself that he did in fact NOT speed up the footage.
@dirtbikeaddicts why do my pants feel wet after this video? Im concerned.
Angelo Delbuono I'd be concerned if they weren't!
@LowJack187 lmfao
I need a beer
"ridden once, just dont have the time or space"
I've seen this vid more than 20 times I swear it never gets old.

James Roberts full freaking respect
James Roberts this video is on my favorite on my playlist i watch it probably once a week it gives me motivation in life.
James Roberts BoomBam, this. Just got yourself another like for the true words. Keep on keeping on!

+James Roberts buuurrrrrnn

Fuck Craigslist

Insane I’ve never seen this before. This was Baja’s best layout imo, and James absolutely shreds. Watched all 15 minutes and would watch it again
facts
2:05 HORY SHEET
9 years later, and i am here watching the same video for the 124th time, damn its awesome!
This guy is so fast, at corners, at everywhere. Amazing dude, almost full throtle everywhere at 1 lap.
I thought Robert's was fast as hell... then I seen Austin Forker ride 250 pro at The Baja Brawl.
he doesn't even let off in the first 30 seconds
Thanks for pointing that out i didnt notice
And over shooting first table on opening lap.
Holy giver, way he rides it makes it sound like he just got off a 2 stroke 250 and is wondering where all the power went!
I had this happen that’s way I sold mine
Barcia's long lost cousin...
still one of my favorite helmet cam videos...can't get enough of it!
Craigslist be like my wife rode it. She crashed once and is scared to ride again. Never raced or abused
he is litterally getting 102% outta that poor 250f. lol
Andrew Sanders 250r*
Jacob Holinaty I believe he means 250f as in 250 four stroke, I think everyone or at least most people realise this isn’t a trail bike, I own an 150f and they sound way different to the 150r
@@Melonology yes... 250r ismuch louder and richer..
unreal dude. Your fast as F*** dont listen to anyone. Ride that shit to the moon and keep bouncin the rev limiter. Thats how you win!
Taylor Kerr so true
Craigslist - "Only 20 Minutes on a fresh rebuild like new"
You know your fast when you let off before the lip of the jump
Abraham Shell and this kids is why Abraham always gets las... Because he rides like a pussy... By the way no good rider ever worried about blowing up their bike while they're winning a race... But the guys in the back might... But then agen that's why they're in the back
Thank God that thing has a revlimiter..
I hate how some people ride 250s they rev them out way to much, and they constantly rev the fuck out of it in the air like it sounds awesome.
@@zPrideful it does sound awesome it sounds badass

Well the bikes are made to be on the limiter 99% of the time lol, peak power is in top rpms
@@billyboots3730 if your hitting the limiter on a four stroke you aren't going anywhere they dont pull in the top, half way through the top of each gear they stop pulling.

You know the video is good when you can still recall it 10yrs later apparently. Thats wild tho 10yrs?!
Yeah feels like it was just yesterday!
Them purple gloves are the key to his speed
Somebody grew up on 2 smokers.
Aiaksqyouzwy❤😂😊
Awesome! Pegged it open all the way through those berms, no hesitation, totally committed, that was seriously fun to watch!
I wish I could corner like that...
I keep finding myself revisiting this video every year or so lol
Silly James, you're on a four stroke, not a two stroke!
Glad hes on that 4stroke tho
Pretty sure I have to relocate my jaw after watching this video
2:03 Just shit my pants..... Props to this kid
That was awesome!!
Haha seriously, the G-forces alone shootin' around that berm so fast...
I wish I could like your comment twice, if you've ever done a berm, it's so sketchy... Oh my god there's just no way to describe how fast this kid is, lol balls of steel
TrevorJones418 raced this dude at baja and litterally was like wtf, made pinned nation and had a tough tme keepin up...kudossss
Huh, so this is what its like to be fast! I don't think I could handle it.
The way he rides is insane🤘🏻😳
Being fast as hell comes at a price at the bikes expense, but you fucking wail on it and look where it got you, keep it up man!
i got arm-pump just sittin here watchin awesome stuff man!!
One of the most savage people living. Badass bro, badass
Not going to lie, I've been playing the audio of this as my background "music" while on the PC...
James Gingerich most underrated comment on RUclips
That was by far the best video I've watched, absolutely amazing! Holy shit! I could listen to that bike all damn day! Awesome race James!!!
Love that back straight and onto the table top, then the high bank negative corners #Blip
and this kids is how valves are droped
and this kids, is how you win races, ride fast and hard, im sure rick sanschez rides much faster without limiter bashing
RlCK SANSHEZ yeah I agree
and get laid
this kids is how you show that you're a bamf at the track and aren't a pussy who sits inside all day playing fortnite and end up a virgin the rest of your life.
This just inspires me to push my self, crazy riding man and thanks for the inspiration.
I like his style. Good throttle control and when necessary full tilt.
16 mechanics didnt like this lol
This is truly badass! I can only hope that someday i can put in enough hard work and effort to ride like you! But I promise i will work my ass off practicing!
me too. hows the progression been after 6 years?
craiglist be like good bike ridden in low rpm
LOL. Low hours, never raced, vet rider.
hahaaha
LMAO 4real
This guy is just sick !
I feel like I am playing reflex watching this.. wide open all the way around the track!
Me holding my dirtbike, “it’s gonna be ok, I’ll never push you that hard”
You lead the whole race lad. We’ll done. I’ll deffo move on to HONDA after watching this amazing Moto. Thanks so much for sharing and that’s what I call MOTOCROSS mate. We’ll done
raced 250 Cr Honda in 1980s never ever thought four stroke motors could do this... awesome
When you realize half the comments are starting with Craigslist
This guys mum must not have to worry about losing her son at the track... just listen for a rev limiter ever 3 seconds 😂
that was a kickass race with a badass holeshot in my opinion
I'll die mixin' gas but damn do the 4T's sound good - I can hear my buddy Kris' YZF250 behind me even when he's off-throttle into corners..if i get too far off i'll slow down so i can hear it again ;-)
0:29 Damn!!
I Rode here all the time as a kid~
I'm speechless, I've seen some good riders but you, you top them all! 👍
Best gopro ive ever seen!!!!
I grew up watching James race at Baja. this isn't sped up, he's just that FUCKING fast.
This is a moto video I never forget I come back every few months and watch the whole thing... This dude is on absolute RAILS, if he’s got the cash to rebuild it might as well go out there and go for the fucking win. Wack to see all these people judging this guy, He won the race......
because thats where the pin is that drops the gate. and you can see it move before the gate even moves.
that 1 corner at 2:03 makes me regret that I quit racing years ago. crazy.
I can bounce off the limiter that much too, just in first gear tho :)
Bet he can replace a clutch faster than he can do a lap. lol
2:00 to 2:09 ssooo ssiicckk great job bro keep it up
Moto goals man! Mad respect!
2:05 wow
Holy crap Ikr
Lucas Costa
OMG 😱
Lucas Costa , ya dude was railing that corner!
Oh damn! It's like he doesn't even get tired
I don't think anyone here should be telling this guy what to do. That was beautiful.
Still awesome to watch
That first jump had me puckering up
Man that guy can haul ass. Nice riding!
Geez... This video makes me miss my 250 all over again. I want to ride this track too. Haha!
That's so awesome! He's so fast that it looks sped up. I'm jealous haha
HOHOH! now we talkin', that's the way you should ride motocross.. it's all or nothing!
Awesome video, thanks : )
Still best go pro I've seen .
8:30 just fucking pinned !
Now do that on a 450 ;)
Omg I fuking love this guy and that oj on the first jump👍😏
Impressive as hell nice riding man
That's just how some riders start.
So many clutch drops so many limiters, how many times has this bike Ben blown holy shit!!!!
Nice riding lad!!!!
RIP his valves
Damn you killed it! sweet riding!
Rule 1 about 4 strokes. Never roll into the corner whith the clutch in
Ruel2: no need to hold the bike on the limiter as the power comes from the mid to low
And heres a 3: i would love to see you ride a 250 2stroke
why are u trying to learn some one thats 10x times faster then you how to ride??!? dumbfuck
why are you not pro? since you are telling him how to ride?
the honda 250 and 450 both make their power up top man I've had both smooth low end but not explosive like the yamaha but endless top end, its bike dependent and set up dependent. This dude probably grew up on two strokes so he knows how to keep her up top.
Kurt 450 yep that 85 or 100
wow wish there was a track like this near me
dude you rode that bike like you stole it total respect for you James Roberts and that's how you ride a 4stroke ride until the rev limiter don't listen what the haters have to say

He must have to do rebuilds between motos. Like swap the entire motor out. Cool
I was thinking the same thing I had never seen a rider grab the clutch so many times poor motor
Haha. No doubt. He's ringing the crap outta that thing!
Brandon Turner they were built for this kind of stuff mate
Pendlezzzzz um no they are not to.. he wasn't even shifting he put it in 3 and stayed they the hold moto prob besides the start... I say a race or 2 that bike will need at total overhaul
nah man, bikes these day are built for a thrashing, they might not last as long if he keeps thrashing it like that, but they can take it
I’ve probably watched this video about 16 times since about a year after it was released and I still can’t get over 2:04
Absolutely railed it
This dude's got some balls. Jesus.
sounds like justin barcia when he was on a 250f
You ride like Barcia...Always Pinned!
I’m not the biggest fan of Honda’s but geez this was music to my ears 🤤😍
I like how he does not look at his gate when it drops but looks at what holds up the gate 1-2 sections down....
This is one of the tracks I race at it is the best one that I go to.
2:07 mint!
Clayton Kitner It was not sped up at all.
***** These people just cant except that these riders actually do go that fast.
Clayton Kitner Tell me, what bike do u have?
Then u will get a taste of what that bike is capable of, cuz the one in the vid is also a CR250F, but obviously raced tuned, probably nugging the same power as a stock 450. vid was not speed up bud :).

I don't understand how anybody could dislike this. Must be them' moto haters.
Gotta give it to him, guy loves his throttle.
That dude is stupid fast. Put him up against the ama sx guys on this track and honestly i think he'd win. Mad props man
James I hope your mechanic is running VP 112 & Maxima oils in that bike
@1:16 wondering if the other had started or not ?
If i was on the starting gate next to this guy I would be like I quit life...
