And bought a left over 2018 YZ250F! So happy to finally have gotten one after I’ve been drooling over them for awhile now. This is my first 4-Stroke bike this will be fun. Looking forward to riding this bad boy! Now I’ve got the best of both worlds haha

2 lovely bikes bud, never had a yam myself but there's no doubting they're a great bike! Enjoy the 2 extra strokes too, should be plenty of fun for you!

Nice bikes, but the license plate on your truck is clearly visible, so your bank account has likely been cleaned out already.

The big lawn area looks ripe for a turn track!
Congrats on the new scoot.

Those 18s are sick. At first I wasn’t a fan of the blue wheels but it’s growing on me

That is 100% the correct way to put overtime $$$ to good use. Congrats on a great bike.

Among dozens of "spoke with" threads, I really like this one.
Congrats on getting yourself a new scooter by putting in the long hours Smile

Congrat's on that new bike Eric! It will be a great match for your YZ 250 2 stroke too! And like you , I've been busting my ass for months , and still have a lot of work left to do. I'll be rewarding myself with new bike come spring time. I'm torn between about 3 - 4 different bikes right now , so I'll just have to see what I want when the time comes.

No joke. A friend recently posted online "I'm not sure why our bikes keep getting stolen and our garage broken into" when they live in a shitty part of Florida and after every ride wash all of their bikes in the front driveway for the entire neighborhood to see. I realize for some people it's the only way to do it but I wash my bikes in my private fenced lawn (in town) and still freak out when the neighbors see me push it from my gate to my garage lol Oh and those Florida guys have a private back yard as well.

Thanks for all the comments guys! There has been a lot of 12 hr days worked for this! I’ve got some small plans for it later on when I get some more money saved up lol. Last November I bought the 2017 Star Racing Yamaha graphics for it when D’Cor Visuals had a Black Friday sale so I’ve got those already. I’m not too worried about having it out front of the house as I live in a pretty nice area and my wife & I are pretty much the only young couple in the whole neighborhood but still anything can happen. I plan to deck it out with GYTR & Works Connection parts and a FMF 4.1 exhuast. This winter Enzo will get my suspension also. Here’s the graphics I already have. Gotta try to sell this black & blue seat cover for a blue & white one like my 2 stroke has.

Drool worthy man! It's awesome that you had a goal and worked towards it and finally getting there. It took me awhile to get there and I still want to upgrade stuff lol. That bike is going to be a beast when you're done I'm jealous!

Damn - For what I paid for a 2017 KTM 350 and a coil spring conversion I could have probably just bought a left over YZ250F and a YZ250 to hop up. You're a smarter man than I, in 4 years please repost this so I'll know how to speak with my income! Nice bikes and congrats!!!

Thanks again guys I’ve always been taught by my dad that if I’ve ever wanted anything I’ve had to work hard for it. He was just as excited to go with me to pick it up yesterday lol
