No, Yamaha only added YPVS power valve system to the YZ85 in 2019 model and onwards. this one is still an old model with infamous 2 stroke power band, basically all or noting!!! It kicks like a Horse, but it is so much fun to ride, just use gearing to keep it in the power band...and you'll be flying around the track
@@nunomota9611 Agradeço a sua resposta. Eu fiz a aquisição de uma yz 85 ano 2012. Saber que só as produzidas a partir de 2019 dispõe do ypvs me deixou muito triste. Mas e bom saber o que eu tenho em mãos. Diga se de passagem, sua moto e mais linda do que qualquer yz 85. Parabéns! Thank you for your response. I purchased a 2012 yz 85. Knowing that only those produced from 2019 onwards have the ypvs made me very sad. But it's good to know what I have in hand. In passing, your motorcycle is more beautiful than any yz 85. Congratulations!
Omg! Thank you! I went from Zuki in 93 to the newly designed Yz-I had to have it but it turned out to be a pretty big mistake..I tacoed (bent in half) the back wheel on a 60 ft triple at the mini-O's in Gainesville Florida 😂 we picked it up on the way so I didn't have any time to break it in.. it was a weeklong treacherous wanna go pro type race that was real hard on a brand new bike, not to mention, it was the first year for this body style, Yamaha's biggest improvement since 1983 I believe... super sharp bike,the upside down forks owned me.. also the bike came with a case of oil, new front and back tires, a new top and bottom and rebuild kit if I'm not mistaking, and a big contingency program where if you won races Yamaha would pay you.. man this video brings back so many memories, I really appreciate seeing this! 🤘🏻
The expansion chamber seen on the video is a Vince & Hines and came with the bike when I bought it. Since then I've managed to buy a brand NOS Pro-Circuit works from eBay, however you are able to find them from time to time (i.e. Pro-Circuit website has a "Yamaha YZ 250 Platinum Pipe" available/in stock now. Alternatively you can check out the full hand made JSV-conepipe and a JSV-silencer with vintage endtip produced by JSV Exhausts for DocWob Imports YZ250 used at 2021 Foxhill VMXDN...absolutely beautiful. The main point is that there are a few rare options out there, from FMF to Pro-circuit or as an alternative a hand made.
One nice looking bike reminds me of one I had years ago great looking bike rater have that 93 yz 80 then a new one have 4 2 stroke dirt bikes have a 2006yz 85cc with a big bore atena 112cc kit on mine making it a great super mini fast little bike own a rm 250cc 97 model complete bottom and topend job done too it its awesome it's a beast super fast with vhm racing head got it in gold new sprockets on all my bikes front and back and chains and dunlop mx 53 tires front and back boysen racing reeds in all 4 bikes lots of money in all 4 bikes complete topend jobs done too all my bikes luv my 2 stroke dirt bikes had a new 450 4 stroke sold it after 6 months rater have my 2 stroke dirt bikes that is one nice yz 80 you have don't never sell it is a awesome bike Mike Holden out of north Carolina said that
Wow, what a dime piece!!!!....these yzs we're so smooth and broad useable power was it's forte and there was a long rod kit mod racers did back then which transformed it into a WHOLESHOT ripping monster and Larry ward , Damon, and others were wholeshotting almost every pro race with these yzs and you did a fabulous job ......I really always loved the 93-95 styling the best and I DEF SEE SOME OF THIS INFLUENCE ON THE NEW 2022 YZS WITH THE PLASTICS CONNECTING IN THE MIDDLE LIKE THAT, THE NEW BIKE HAS SAME TYPE OF FLOW AND LINES TO IT W THE CONNECTED PLASTICS WHICH JUST LOOKS TRICK AND RACY.......
No, unless someone offers me a ridiculous sum. This model and year has a sentimental value to me and just looking at it brings me back to my teen years.
@@TheSiko69 Sorry I don't think I would ever forgive myself for selling this bike (not to mention my 12 year son) because it took me years to find a mint bike, which is almost impossible unless it is a fully rebuilt bike.
Thanks, I am aware that Bradshaw wasn't racing that year - What I meant is, that this specific bike on the video is a 1994 model with the replica graphics
And also God I just love how when you started that bike how well it just sat there idling and just a sound I have bought a 1990 Yamaha YZ80 a year ago and I am so in love with it I write it once a week I love the bike
This still has the original plastics and graphics - This is not a restored motorbike, this is an original very low hours, truly "Unobtanium" (time machine stuff)
But yes I see that you're doing very very well just take your time on the bike you will get better at it I love at 52seconds of the video when you come around the corner and I can see that 2stroke smoke coming from your pipe lol I love it
Very very happy to see that you're riding one of my favorite dirt bikes to YZ 80 the only thing I'm upset about this bike is is they discontinued parts for any bike less than 1993 YZ 80s I have a 1990 Yamaha YZ80 and I can't get any any parts unless I happen to possibly come across somebody that will sell me some of theirs from one of their bikes but yeah it discontinued selling parts from the year of your bike is the only year you can buy parts for that YZ80 it's so sad I'm going crazy looking all over for an aftermarket exhaust it's even hard finding original parts for my bike cuz they don't make them
Thanks, I was 16 years old when this model came out and my mind was blown because it was years ahead of the competition - it is the reason why I love motocross and enduro, therefore it is one to keep as a collection item when parts are no longer available. I know how it feels to try and find parts for older bikes, I've been there before. I've got a complete side stand with bracket for the 1992 and previous years in case you are interested (it is very hard to find). It's used but in good condition.
Looks mint! I did a little front end conversion on mine with a never yz. I threw a pro circuit pipe and some clutch covers to all match the graphics but we pretty much have the same looking bike!
I've done a lot more since this video was done, new exact factory replica seat cover with highlighted letters (as per Damon's bike), Lectron carb (mind blowing upgrade when combined with the age related boyesen), Excel rims, and more goodies planned for the future (I'm always on the hunt for age related performance parts - would love to get my hands on a long-rod kit)...In principle these 93-95 are fine looking bike and perform quite exceptionally when compared with modern 450s 4 Stroke.
@@nunomota9611 I found a brand new long rod kit in the package in socal I paid 75 $ for it and I installer d it on my 95 WR which is the same as a 94 YZ the power is awesome!
It was imported from Japan by West Coast Imports located in Minehead TA24 5BZ, and I purchased the bike from them with all of the paperwork, including the NOVA certificate.
@@nunomota9611 cool man! Do you ever take it on the high way? I have a street legal 1993 yz 360 as well. I’ll post a video of it soon if you want to check it out but I have a video of the other bike on my channel.
@@Thefailcycle sure I take all my bikes (1973 Husky/1993 Yamaha YZ80/1994 Yamaha YZ250/2008 Triumph Scrambler) out for a spin around the block more or less every 2 weeks to ensure everything is working as it should to avoid issues with long term storage. Then they are always in top shape to hit the tracks or bike festival racing events.
@@nunomota9611 You got a good little collection going! Cool you found a street legal one. I’m back in the states and they are very very very hard to come by and if they do they are unaffordable. I’m trying to service and get all the bikes ready right now but wish I would’ve done what you do with them, that’s for sure. I’m on the hunt right bit for a kx or cr 500. They’re a few around but come with a Hefty price down here.
