@josephwaldner4134 7 дней назад

I have two 06 yz450f bikes and they both have overheating issues. I've been watching your videos with envy knowing damn well my bike would be cooking if I'd ride as casually as you do. I blew a piston due to over heating and after a full rebuild the bike overheats immediately. I've checked everything, read every forum on the subject and would desperately like to not give up on yamaha, because clearly it's something I'm doing wrong

@DanMX2112 7 дней назад

Yeah, something is for sure wrong with your coolant system or maybe even oil pump issues to the point it get hot but is t starved. That’s a tough one, but I’ll tell you this, these bikes don’t overheat, I’ve worked on plenty of them and have had never had issues. You could have leaking valves, that would overheat the bike quickly, but it’s not likely. I hope you get it figured out, but as long as the carb is dialed, the valves seat, and you have good compression, short of water issues, you should be golden!

I had a 2004 yzf250 that was mint and people thought that was much newer than it was. Finally bought my first new bike now though a 22 CRF450 😍

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

So sick, I loved riding that CRF450. If I had more money I would throw down on one tomorrow lol

@jamieroberts8592 2 года назад

Good man. I never thought I’d get a new one but I finally have. You’ll get one soon 👌

Currently rebuilding my 06 ktm 525. Good to see others riding older models too

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

For sure, the older bikes are amazing bikes. Anything newer than about 05 are pretty dang good for the average consumer. Thanks for watching!

@chroniclush140 8 месяцев назад

Just bought my son 1 today! Dang it's got the power 😂 hope it goes well for his first bike 😊😂

@DanMX2112 8 месяцев назад

Funny story, I sold this bike to a 16 yr old for his first bike. So far he loves it, it’s tons of power, but it sure has taught him tons of respect for the bike and power. Depending on the mindset it could be great or go bad. Learning slow and easy will keep him safe and respect at a high!

@insanetaco98 Месяц назад

Carb model yami 450s sound so fucking good. Also that fuel coming out the overflow could be misadjusted float. Dealt with it on my YFZ

@DanMX2112 Месяц назад

Love the sound of these bikes stock! I’ve adjusted that carb float so many times, and replaced oring the bullet seat, no luck, so I gave up. Miss that bike so much!

I had a 2006, YZ450F and absolutely loved it. The problem was I had it for two years and didn’t ride much, I was getting deployed and I sold it to my Uncle. I’m on another deployment, but when I get back I’m buying my 06 YZ450F back! I love this bike build and I’m loving these videos!

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

Heck ya, this is awesome. Thanks for serving all of us and for making that sacrifice. I hope you get that bike back soon, and tear it up. I’ve debated getting rid of mine so many times, but it’s just to good of a bike, can’t do it lol thanks for watching Nick, and love the conversations!

@nickwebb4957 2 года назад

@@DanMX2112 Thank you very much and your very welcome! Man I’ve had a few bikes in my day and I regret getting rid of my dirt bikes the most! Don’t do it! Lol. When I came across your channel I was excited! I have a feeling I’ll need to tear everything down, clean it, and see what’s what. It hasn’t started in a while from I’m told, I don’t know how many hrs are on it, but I’m wanting to rebuild it and get new top end and bottom end in. But first see what’s what. What do you think?? I’m also wanting to get a new YZ450F as well So I will have two.

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

That’s awesome, and you can’t go wrong with a full rebuild. I would do a full tear down, carb clean and throw it back together and see how it runs before a rebuild.

@nickwebb4957 2 года назад

@@DanMX2112 Awesome! My thoughts as well. I was curious did you have to re-jet your bike when you moved to Utah? I’m not to knowledgeable on carbs, and engine work, but watching your videos and the how to videos on Rocky Mountain I feel like I can do it. And I’ve always enjoyed doing my own maintenance as far as oil change, air filter, and doing graphics. If you don’t mind would it be ok to email you or pm you?

@Prizzo85 2 года назад

I'm still yet to find a bike as quick as my 06 in a straight line. Love the carby yz450f

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

For real though, it such a quick bike, and so reliable for the insane power!!!

@bikelifesoldier5412 3 месяца назад

Sweet build bro..lookin good👌 Just got a beautiful condition 06 450 as well but I want to Sumo it out sometimes and can't get a good link to the right stator, rechargeable battery, switch, n small harness connecting it all together🤷‍♂️ with lights of course. Any chance you got a lead on that since you have the same bike?🙏👊✌️

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

@gwade8808 7 месяцев назад

Sweet bike, man! Mind if I ask how much you weigh and what spring rates you went with? I'm 220 and looking at Race Techs calculator on their site. Would be nice to hear your experience or any love, hate, wish I would have thoughts on your spring rate selection. I'm finishing the head on an 09 and can't wait to ride it. Awesome Video!

@DanMX2112 7 месяцев назад

I loved the Race Tech springs I put on my bike. I used the calculator and put in B class motocross 220 lbs intermediate. That rate they suggested is what I used and dang, that bike handled amazing! No bottoming even in big hits, and still had a great plush feel in the beginning come the stroke. The Maxima 5w oil is killer also.

@racingdreamz8021 2 года назад

I bought a used 09 450f a few months back, I literally beat the shit out of it & the thing just takes is like a champ, Ofcourse I’ve done all the maintenance & always will but I don’t ever see myself selling this bike

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

That’s the key, having a reliable platform such as these bikes, then doing the maintenance like you should. They are gems for sure, and we love them! Thanks for watching my friend!!!

Thanks for your thorough and detailed videos. Very informative and I learned alot already. I got me a 06 yz250. 2 weeks ago. Got it all stripped and cleaned. Put it all back together. Except rear brake doesnt have any pressure? Lines are good, no leaks. I bleed, rebleed, reverse bleed, tk make sure no air inline. Whats is the problem? It works before i did the brake service.

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

Thanks for the kinds words, but as far as your issue it’s hard to say. I always go back to “what did I do, that would effect that part.” Example would be new parts, different install position, different chemicals, etc… crazy things will effect some components. I wish I could help but sounds like you have covered the bases.

@timothysmith5867 Год назад

I just recently bought the same bike, 2006 Yamaha YZ450F. I've always been a Big Bore Honda guy, so this is my first time owning a Yamaha. Of course it's been a learning curve. The main problem I have is there's a knocking noise in the motor, definitely am a loss of what it could be. I'm not blessed with a whole lot money but am determined to fix this bike. I can't afford to take to a mechanic so I will have to be the one who does this.. I love the videos your sharing in which I'm learning alot. If you have any kind of help 6:13 available, please help.. Tim

@DanMX2112 Год назад

These motors make a small knocking noise, it’s normal. If it sounds loud and bad, it may be. The 05-09 yz450f was a pound motor.

@timothysmith5867 Год назад

@@DanMX2112 Hey Daniel, thanks for getting back to me so quickly, I apologize for not knowing exactly what pound motor is? I think I could take that good or bad.. Anyways this bike has the fmf factory 4.1 exhaust and doesn't even sound as sweet as your does. If you don't mind I'll try and send you a short video.. Only if you have the time.. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

@DanMX2112 Год назад

Sorry that was a typo do to autocorrect, I meant a loud motor. Go over to my Instagram and send me a video of it running from close and about 4 feet away on both sides of the motor. Also, have you do t a valve adjustment recently, that also can be a cause of a slightly louder engine.

@randycurl866 Год назад

I have the same bike with very low hrs, but man do I have a hard time starting it

@DanMX2112 Год назад

I’m gonna say it’s a jetting issue. Idk how you start it, but the method I use is as follows. Roll the bike over 3 times slow, and find top dead center. Flick the throttle full open quickly 3 times, and give it a hard kick. Usually fires first and second kick!

@kennethjohnson6223 2 года назад

Enjoyed the video my friend..I am looking at a 06 yz450f with pro circuit suspension and dual walled oversized handle bars and is supposedly low hours.... he's asking $4k which I think is a lil high for a older bike.... I have never owned a dirtbike only a few dual sport as a kid back in the 80's... he said it needs new tires as the ones on it are a lil worn on the outside lugs.. said it wasn't due to pavement.... what would be a fair offer to give the seller being said the things above? I am thinking $2100 - $2500 tops.. dunno how much good tires like yours would cost?

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

Tires will be around $250 with tubes, and $25 per wheel to mount. I think in this market $2500 is a great offer, otherwise walk if it’s not perfect. Thanks for watching a good luck on the search. You’ll love the 450 if you pick it up.

@el.unicovlogs 2 года назад

How would you say the 2005 is I’m going to go look at one tomorrow it’s stock barely ever riden it even has the dealer stickers still

@DanMX2112 2 года назад

Same motor, but has a steel frames solid bike and very reliable. If it has the low hours the seller says it has, your gonna like the bike. The aluminum frame is a slightly larger bike, and I think handles totally different, but either way are both great units!
