I had an 87 ,125 super reliable bike. I road it to high school and parked it in the bicycle rack. Good Times!
I did the same thing, staff tried to say I couldn’t park it there, I said this the bike rack? Well yes. Ok then. I still had to hide it after that lol but man it beat the dogshit out of riding the bus. To the point of that’s all I could think about all damn day. Definitely the best times in life. Class of 84’
@@deborahchesser7375Been there, done that!
The white and red YZs look the best, IMO.
It definitely does. I have two of the magenta "pink" and white ones,91 and 92. I love those too don't get me wrong, but the red/white is sick looking!!
@@yamaharaptor01able ... I think the yellow & black YZ 2-strokes were the meanest looking ones... I didn't like the white & red YZ 2-strokes too much... I have a 2018 YZ250 2-stroke, bought it brand new off the showroom floor...
@@ghostrt1608 yes 👍🏼 yellow and black bumblebee look is my favorites. Not really a fan of the blue Yamahas.
@@lancairw867 ...there's other colors of plastics to replace the stock blue color... There's white, black, yellow, clear, & now they have a high-lighter yellow
@@lancairw867 .. I may do a black plastic swap later on... I did my son's PW50 in black plastic with a blue/white/ black sticker kit & his PW50 looks better than my YZ250...
Amazing bike, the thing I love about this channel, is that even if you
didn't purchase a bike from this shop, Ken gives you excellent free information
on what to look for in a used bike that you might not notice. That's 35 plus years
of free experience, think of the money he's saving you just for watching!!
80s Yamaha is the coolest!
She’s a beauty! Only had one YZ in my life... 1989 YZ 250 which was a great overall bike but that chain clack a Lacka is still ringing in my head!!!!
I had the same bike, bought new in December, '88. What a bike it was!
Another killer 250,sounds crisp,love these older machines,great style.
They always sound crisp
Your not wrong👍
@@posniknelb6114 of course I'm not I'm right
Whatever
I raced my 1987 YZ250 all the way until the 1991 season, always took top 4 places, then in 1992 I got a 1991 YZ250, was time for a upgrade took top 3 all year.. I think the 1987 cornered a lot better
Been riding four decades. Realized I like classical vintage more than new. Fun over speed. But my 79 yz still holds it's own. Love yzs
The midrange power on the 1985 and > YZ250 was excellent. =Fun to ride great all around bikes. And they were reliable.
These white bikes never look this good after riding them. McNasty was very picky about his bikes.
I bought a brand new 1991 yz250 when I was a senior in high school. Replaced my 1988. Everytime I see a white yz of the 80's and 90's reminds me I got to ride some of the coolest bikes ever.
mcnasty ville love it brings me back to the good old days love watching the Captain send it !!!
Awesome Yamaha. Such a cool bike.
Man I mean it! Motocross bikes were incredible back then. I miss the 80s and 90s for motocross.
I like the yellow bumblebees...I got an 82 in the barn needs restoration...🙂
If I was 10 years younger that would be on my wishlist 💪👍🔥 !
they improved these when they moved the radiator from the top of the forks 87 model is very nice and rare
Can’t wait to get my 89 up and running this weekend
WOW!!!!! That’s a Beast. Love them old bikes.
Beautiful vintage Motocrosser. I remember when these first came out, as a young teenager.
I need that one now... I've owned an 88,89,90,91, and 92 yz's. Might as well go for 87-92. Lol
Hey guys I love the video I have the same bike sadly not as nice got the bike in a box just redid the motor and have it running great idk if you guys are interested in a smaller restore but I’d be honored if you guys bought my bike long shot but been watching for a long time I so have a 86 yz490 as well you guys got me into vintage bikes and I’m in love
My father had one exactly like this, but he painted the red parts blue. He had a nasty crash once, and ended up in a neckbrace for two months, after that, he sold it. I really miss that bike, would love to have one in the family again
Damn I had one just the same it was one of the best yz's I ever owned and i have owned quite a few
Mostly a CR tragic although I love KX and rm however the 80's mods YZ'S were amazing bikes and superfast and powerful, I had a YZ 80 J 1982, had the radiator on the front of the handle bars and the wishbone mono cross swing arm which I had chromed quite a bizarre liquid cooling design but what a cracking little beast I was on the back wheel everywhere I went and usually beating later model CR'S and kx's.
Yep, a friend of mine almost got that model YZ 80. He said it was crazy fast but he didn’t like the radiator placement.he settled on an 84 Rm80 in the end, which he said was almost as fast but had better suspension and he liked the look better. Cool bikes
Had the same bike! Bored to the moon and rode to hell! Radiators prone to leak but those were my best early teen memories hands down. Love the look of the number plate with the vents in it. Bad ass little bike.
Had an 85 YZ250 back then, and that bike was so fun!! I was also 17 so maybe that’s why haha
david hilton i still have mine. yamaha japan corp. says 84-86 were fastest 250 engine they have ever produced. i know mine ate 500's and trinity banshees
Elijah Brown Funny you say that, because I wished to take mine to Jawbone Canyon here in Mojave and out climb CR and KX500s all day long. Until they pulled up with an extended swing arm and a paddle tire haha. So much bottom end and light!!
Man i remember those chain slider guides were made of ivory or something similar they were the hardest ...loudest... Chain guide u can hear over the motor usually but this one didnt seem to clank around like the original guide did.....one thing they never wore out thats for sure
Next time you have to get the JT als 2 helmet and go full Broc Glover retro.
I can’t tell the 85’ 86’ 87’ apart, pretty bikes, and their Yamahas
I’ve got an ‘86. The shrouds and frame are red, but the rest looks about the same. Mine also doesn’t look as pristine as that one😂
If you see the 'YZ' radiator shroud with the lines through it (in pic), that is an '86..another difference was on the side panel, the '85yz number plate is black, the '86 is white with red tracing around it..87yz stating getting ugly and continued to do so as the years rolled by .. www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=vKxq%2bMjL&id=5BA3A621580E1FC2FC76F283D002B0810ECE28EF&thid=OIP.vKxq-MjLPpYhINSKFI8M0gHaFC&mediaurl=https%3a%2f%2flive.staticflickr.com%2f8599%2f15759251704_fea2dcef3f_b.jpg&exph=696&expw=1023&q=pictures+of+1986+yz250&simid=608023114455713740&ck=D41C0A8F6AEC651C499935A702335DFE&selectedIndex=0&FORM=IRPRST&ajaxhist=0
Another beautiful bike
So awsome. Had a 125 of that year back when.
Just bought a mint 89 yz250 WR & it’s fully restored with fmf gold series fatty and silence thing is fuckin ridiculous lol
Thats the unique sound of the yzingeeeer fuckinn great bike
Yeah kap you get me hype jumping off the couch starting the video with a wheelie Ripping the house right off the foundation God bless America
👊✊😎🍻🇺🇲
I love the Red n White era of YZ's !!!!
@ 4:33 Looks like Ray Charles an Helen Keller put the muffler on though ... !!! lol LOL !!
Al jokes aside , great looking bike !!!
I have that same exact bike , love it ! And love Kaplan America !
Looks like rick Mellons bike on winner take all
Rick's was an '86 Yz..the secret to all these bikes year differences is in the decal styles and the '86YZ decals were simply the best ever to be put on a yammy to me...the '85 yz motor was one of the sweetest motors though
Best movie ever!!
@@sevendyseven4090 also didnt the 86 yz250 have a red frame? 87 had white? " Sam when its fixed put it on the lot! Thats your business isnt it" best movie ever!!!
@@03marauder1 Lol, yup @ 31:39 .. ruclips.net/video/YktPu5r7g5E/видео.html
@@sevendyseven4090 Billy could climb suicide hill if he was here I'll take u right out of the business we got a supercrosser
I have an xt 600 same era 1986 love it
Those are badass as well,love them!
Bought a 83 tt 600 changed piston cam gearing rode the crap out of it in so cal desert.heavy but like a tractor
I'm a big guy mine weighs about 340 so it's not too heavy for me
Bought one when I was 17 for 400 bucks. It was bored out but the clutch started slipping. So I took it into a shop and they said a dude you know the waterpump is shot on this bike. Me wanting it to be top notch told them to fix it and wouldn't you know I started it up after getting it fixed and instantly it fired up but it was stuck on wide open throttle. Had to upshift it to 3rd gear and dump clutch while holding the back brake to kill it. So I took it back to the shop and showed him what it was doing. He then said oh dude you need a new top end and since its an older bike it's going be atleast 1200$ ha I only paid 400 for the thing I'm not spending that on it. So I sold it blowed up for 450 and put some money together and brought a 2000kx250 for 1700. Just one of my experiences hustling bikes
i know this is 2 years old lol but top end kit is $200
I had a 1985 YZ 250 beat the crap out of it . Then started riding the RD 400 . Had a few of them.
Looks incredible
Man i havnt watched video yet but is this the mcnastys us u finally got finished...???? Man i been waiting for this one...time to make some popcorn and turn up the volume!!!!
Yes. Finally!
That yz sounds dirty 💪
Beautiful bike man
Rick Melon eat your heart out !!!! "Winners take all" reference incase any of u gear heads wanna watch a old school 80's motocross movie. Loved these YZ's.....had a 125 & 250! 🤘🤙🙏
Right on
Nice YZ, I have one on eBay for sale just as nice.
I think she's gorgeous!
Love the channel but honestly I went to the museum a couple months ago and ehhh hardly any bikes
Did you go through all four floors and if you want on the weekend you didn't get to go into the showroom or restoration shop you only saw a small portion of it there's over 300 bikes here sorry you missed out brother
Une sacrée machine cette 2 ½, elle a été une reine des stades....
The same yz 250 that was ridden by the lead actor in the movie Winner takes all!
What movie was that?. Are you talking about the movie " over the top"?
@@beeman596 Look up Winners take all full movie here on youtube.
La plus belle 250 yz 1985 avec les plaques numéros noirs
I regret selling mine ! I had this same bike
I'm a HONDA guy but I bought that '87 YZ250 brand new also - it has a long fork rake it's made for straight line desert riding.
Severely jammed my knee on that bike going about 5 mph in the mud - I hate that bike.
Kaplan American is full blooded bald eagle !
It’s time for Yamaha to get a new look
