  • Riding my buddy ‪@Moto_Mills‬'s 2018 Yamaha YZ250F for a few laps around the track. I definitely prefer the motor of the 2021+ model more but overall I always enjoy my experience on a YZ250F. Think I might just need to buy one at this point. Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

    • @kyleglen1456
      @kyleglen1456 Před rokem +1

      Hey man everyone is beginner at some point! At least you’re giving it a shot. You’re question is loaded just a little bit. Some jumps require second gear higher in the rpms to clear. Some jumps you can just be rolling in third and clear. The only thing I can really say to watch out for is never go off a face of the jump right on limiter. You will nose dive hard if you’re not careful. If you know you can hit a jump in second then I would do that especially if you have a tight corner coming up. That way you don’t have to shift down and one less thing to think about. One thing I like to do is clear the jump in second and if there’s a long straight away just after the jump then I’ll click up to 3rd while I’m in the air. That you way you’re not bouncing limiter as soon as you land. Cause at that point you’re not moving any faster and you’re losing time.
