Did you fix the brakes and check the baffle for clogging? What about the right crankcase seal? It has a fair amount of smoke which makes me suspect the seal may be leaking. Other than that it looks like a blast! Single trail riding at its best.

Nice ride but remember that this is a 50 year old engine. The seals in the engine are probably all shot. The smoke you see is likely oil being sucked into the engine. First thing to do is remove the engine and replace both seals. I would recommend that all seals in the engine be replaced. After reassembling the engine do a leak down test just to make sure. A leaky intake gasket can be really exciting as the engine will keep revving to the moon. If that happens you can even turn off the ignition and it will keep revving. Hit the choke and hope it stops(it usually does). Second, check the exhaust pipe and pull the baffle and get your propane torch and burn off the crap filling the holes. That is likely the cause of the top enf not being crisp. With the smoke(transmission oil) being burnt the baffle will clog up quickly. Third, fix the brakes and get a new chain before you ride it again. 😜 Great bike. Big bore two strokes are the most fun you can legally have! Yeah, they vibrate and are noisy and pollute the air horribly, but man are they fun.

ای جاننن DT400 عششققههه😘😘😘😜😜

Timing is off

Bought a new cocktail yellow 1995. Still think it was the best looking FZR600 ever made.

Fun times 👍🏼

Would like to roll like a pimp on a '84 IT 490. Nope Kdx 200 way easier to handle

You either got it or you dont.

Central Newfoundland is in the middle of the woods. No prisoners there man.

Bro, I rode my '85 KDX 200 hard for 10 years in Central Newfoundland. Best off-road bike.

Another thing most didn't know about, was the gas tank was fake. The air box was underneath it. The real tank, you had to remove the seat, to get access to.

Nice work ! I had hoped to see where all the vaccum lines went for the tank and air box so I could assemble my 90 zx10. Same leaks but in pieces when i got it. Hoping to find a diagram. Careful on that thing. Lol

I used to have one of those bikes' cool bikes to have

That underwater sound was hilarious, cool bike tho

Buy a Vape ignition system, that'll sort it, set the timing and it'll fire up every time

Get some gloves. You'll thank me later because you will fall off at some point. Clean the carb and check the jetting against stock jetting. You might not be getting enough fuel at high rpm. Check where the slide lock is at too.

Very informative. I like the look of this GS650GL very much. Actually I am a cruiser fanatic.

Had a grey one. The dual headlights were my fave

Hey did u figure out the starting issues??

When I moved out to Cali, I started riding, this was the 1st bike I bought for 1,500 bucks. A older guy who stopped riding. I took it up and down California. Love these bikes.

I was 27 in 1989. You simply cannot overstate the impact the FZR 600 had on the sportbike landscape. The term ‘game changer’ is over used, but would be spot on here.

90hp?

Rather have 1 of these than 5 r6s. When bikes looked awesome handled great and roder totally controlled bike. Real riding not just a passenger.on tech filled toy

I'm really thinking about getting this v- star 650 as a starter bike... Umm

Your lethargic troubleshooting technique to make your video longer is mind numbing. Your analysis of the kickstand switch though remedially right in concept is fragmented and in accurate. Me owning a ‘90 since new can not bear to watch this past the 12 min mark.

If you want to upgrade from the lackluster brakes. Get a 1999 - 2001 R1 or R6 right front caliper And rotor (only need one) Then put full sintered pads on it. Be mindful of panic grabs while turning afterwards or you will meet the ground quickly

I've got a 1979 it400 someone changed the flywheel not kicks like a mule I can't even start it. I try to do top bed sooner than put the flywheel back on and that mother kicksback harder. I'm about ready to just scrap the damn thing

First try at starting, did not turn on the choke, cranks for ten seconds, nope it doesn't start. I have a 1985 Ninja900 for sale right now. Just needs the petcock changed.

Hey man, I was wondering, is the bike still for sale?

The one I have will fly definitely do better than 11 seconds it will smoke my Harley seems like it's had some work done to it for a 650 it's a beast

The spark arresters do clog up you just pull it out and burn it off. ( torch)

after 1990 bike are pretty much the same as today bikes

tuve una en 1994..maravillosa en motor y prestaciones...si que al tener la 1ª versión sobre todo mejoré el amortiguador trasero Ölhins.. y en el tren delantero puse solo muelles de la marca amarillos Ölhins con su aceite y una pequeña precarga de taco de Nylón torneado de 1,5cm. grueso, entonces la parte ciclo quedó muy aplomada hasta para girar tandas en Circuito.. ( que tiempos aquellos..). Saludos. Buen Video, suena esa moto muy bien y de motor sube con mucha garra, está aún muy buena.

Nothing personal Bro, but you can't drive. Cheers for the video. i love this bike!

Try an 84 cr 500..

Hi. Nice bike. I had one in the 1990 bought it for £50 quid. I rebuilt it but used it for off road. Mine did have the decompression cable that combines with the kick start but never used it. I did the frame in purple because that was Yamaha colour back then. When you kick bring the piston to the top then use your body weight to kick it over or connect the cable to the kick start for the decompression. I fitted longer front forks and raised the back up it was a lot better. There’s not many of these bikes left mine was red and white. Nice bike you’re enjoy it a lot. UK

Nice job kid

Great Review! I own a 2008 Classic Silverado. Smooth riding bike. 🪶 ✨

I currently have a 93 with a little over 5000 miles and I love it. The shocks need some work, but has plenty of power.

vapor locking or timing problem or both

Dt400 a monster 2stroke from yamaha Always wanted this bike The early one But kicking them is another Event I call it a leg/knew destroyer Thats what kept me back But i have the rd350 easier to kick

ارباب شختر کیک بزن این چه طرز کیک زدنه

I've had my 2000 V star 650 custom for 5 years with absolutely no trouble.

I'm 63 have no problem starting minebetter go to the gym

I know its supposed to start easer and sheared key was problem but as for me if i leave my 600r or my cr 500 setting more than a couple months i roll them off the first time nice bike by the way

Nice Video is it for sale ??😊

Nice bike Sonds a bit muffeld but nice

Two stroke bikes I had started easily usually 4 stroke such as big thumping xl 500 not so much. 😮btw dont overtighten thats worse than undertight as damage threads are a pain use torque wrench. 😊

Check the rear muffler, mine was caked full of oil & carbon robbing it from full power
