The throttle slide may have been over adjusted, but it's noted that you were opening the throttle as you kicked the bike over. You don't need to open the throttle when the bike is on choke and, when you do, it usually floods the cylinder and spark plug. When the engine is hot, a little throttle helps, but when it's cold and on choke, no throttle needed.
I'm with you. I have better luck starting them without going crazy with the throttle. When cold outside I also warm up the motor a little bit with a hair dryer or heat gun and it helps tremendously. It really helps with my nitro rc cars
Yeah depends on the bike. Sometimes they won't start unless you give it 1/4 throttle.
@@matthewmorgan582 Isn't that usually big four strokes?
@@crouchingtiger9108 I’m not sure, though in my yz250f (four stroke) it needs the throttle opened at least 1/4 to start when cold.
thats exaclty it i had a 140cc and if i did open the throttle it would choke
Choke (actually an enrichment circuit) only functions when the throttle is closed! If the throttle is opened the air will flow thru the least restrictive path, straight into the venturi. A closed throttle allows the air to go thru the "enrichment circuit" many call the choke. Then she'll fire right up.
I'm 61 and rode a Honda R75 (bored to an 80) back in my pre-teens, and stumbled across your videos - Flashbacks galore. Might have to buy me one just for the nostalgia. Excellent videos. Clear, concise, and perfect step-by-step troubleshooting. Demonstrates intellect. Wish I had this channel in the '70s. Probably could have put another 200 hours on that Honda!
Honda r75?🤨
I wanted an XR75 so bad when I was kid , but I enjoyed every minute of my CT70 and cow trailing around the farm
You shouldn't use the throttle cable to adjust idle speed. I know you turned it down on this bike, but in the past you've used the cable adjustment on the throttle to adjust idle. The idle is adjusted on the carb, then the cable adjustment is used to take adjust the free play out of the cable. The throttle and the clutch lever should have a slight bit of free play before the cable grabs. With a throttle cable that's tight like that, you can go for a ride if it's ro right and you turn your bars. It can open the throttle and send you for a wild ride.
pn shifter karts you use the cable...but i agree on bikes you use the carb
And yet he keeps on doing it.....there is an idle adjustment screw for a reason.
I’m sure he knows this. It’s common knowledge. He just didn’t mention it in the video and he cut the video when he reinstalled the carb and adjusted idle speed.
Think someone changed that carb the factory keihin pwk does have an idle screw, but that looks to be a keihin pwm and you would set your idle slide height with the throttle cable adjustment where the cable screws into the top of the carb. It’s odd though as PWMs are normally only used on applications where the carb is in the open like shifter carts etc and pwm carbs are actually more expensive than the factory pwk and would be a pain in the butt to get set up as it’s almost impossible to access the adjuster for slide height with the carb in the bike 🤷♂️
that shows hes a nob, when he turns them handlebars, his revs is gonna rise, and hopefully smash his camera through the hedgerow so badly, he never gets chance to post this shite again.
A local guy posted his relatively high end dirt bike for sale at an unbelievably low price. Said he had tried 'everything' and it just would not start. I looked at the pictures he posted and messaged him to turn the gas on at the tank. Problem solved. I didn't need a sixth dirt bike, anyway.
lol
Same happened to me a few years ago, KTM 250sx, guy replaces the hydraulic clutch line and couldn’t get it to bleed, got so pissed he went and bought a new bike, I got a one year old bike for for $1200 and bled the clutch in 10mins when I got home
I didn’t tell him i was a Harley master tech
something tells me that it wasnt a 20 min fix
20 min fix 40 min long video 🧐
TH-cam time 🤔
Lol. Guys love to exaggerate the time it takes to fix something. It takes me 20 minutes just to gather all my tools and take a piss
The initial problem took 20min to fix
Gotta love how you always start a bike from cold and rev the sh1t out of it cause that never causes damage.
what memories this brings to mind. I owned a Honda 250 Elsinore. That bike was cutting edge at the time. It boasted longer fork travel and suspension like no other, weight savings with an aluminum gas tank. That bike handled so well for what it was. Your bike here was eons ahead of my Elsinore. No one ever heard of liquid cooling in a 2 stroke. Congrats on your find. I can't believe just how clean your bike is. When you dropped the bowl on the carb my chin hit the floor.
Enjoy your classic machine.
Cheers from Louisiana.
My boys grandpa had an old Elsinore in the barn when I was a kid. He said the guy he got it from used it for ice racing and they bored it out . At the time he said if I can get it started I could ride it. I was young and I went for it. I gotta say that Elsinore was the fastest dirt bike I ever rode. It took me a whole 25 minutes to burn up the clutch.good times
rick 250 elsinore still a bike i would ride..same as an 83 cr 480 or an 86 cr 500 and eerything around that era because its what i fell in love with..i may not ride it as quick but i sure as hell would still enjoy it ill say nomore lol
I never knew about the Honda Elsinore 250's history until I watched On Any Given Sunday the original motorcycle documentary and saw it had a part on the race in Elsinore, CA. Super cool history. I'm sure you miss that bike. I'm only 43 years old but there are a few bikes from my past I wish I never had to get rid of. I sort of feel your pain. But you should be proud that you can say you owned a legend of a motorcycle. I now own a BMW R1200GS and I have just fallen for the brand and there history. The bike rides like NO other bike I have ever owned. All have been of Japanese manufacture prior. But I really do miss my Honda XR600. What a beast! But anyways congrats on owning a legend.
I'm 60 years old, i still ride on dirt bikes, don't just have memories, you can still enjoy riding.
Bought myself a 1976 Elsinore 250 a few years ago for a good deal and was able to ride it a few times before it stopped running. Finally dragged it out of storage (under the stairs) last week and started to take it apart. I remember having so much fun back when it rode but it’s 50+ years old now and needs some TLC. I pulled everything off and cleaned it, disassembled and cleaned the carb, put in a new air filter and replaced various tubes, hoses, and filters in hopes of seeing it run again. If you happen to see this let me know if you have any tips to get that bike running again! Just hoping that the engine/ transmission/ clutch are in relatively good shape and nothing is too frozen to get started again, but we’ll see…
Just a couple of points….if you think about why it’s called “choke”, its original designed to restrict air flow, or increase fuel flow to enrich the fuel/air mixture for starting.
So on that point, twisting the throttle defeats the purpose as you are increasing air flow through the carb body which will cancel out the choke circuit.
Also, by adding oil to the cylinder it increases the ring(s) efficiency to seal against the cylinder wall, rendering a compression test as a false reading.
Once the bike has ran and cleared the excess oil, only then would you get an accurate reading.
Apart from that, good job. It’s shocking to see the need for a breaker bar, as it should only be torqued to 20Nm.
probably because the bolt is steel and the engine is aluminum, when its not being touched for years the ''seize'' together a bit
well said
Funny how theory and practice don't always line up. You still have to give it a little throttle with the choke on most of the time
Great job diagnosing and repairing! You really scored on this bike.
Keeping them 2 strokes alive.. I love it. takes me back to the day!
Satisfying fix! I just managed to get an old moped going. Went through a very similar process. I think the main issue with mine was also a blocked pilot jet! She's running now which is great
It sounds way better than the other yz you repaired recently👌👍👍

Fricken love this channel.... good on you for how far you've come over the years. It's always a pleasure watching your videos!
I've been watching your channel for few years now . I love this channel and all the projects you've done. It makes me want to start doing this you got a very special talent and people can learn from everything that you do just want to show my appreciation and say thanks and great job keep up the good work
What really hurts is when he hit the throttle every time he is kicking it over. You don’t need to flood the carb to start, cause then it definitely won’t start
Spark plug
When adding oil, if you turn the oil bottle around in your hand so the spout is on top rather than the bottom, air can get in and you can pour smoothly without the glug-glug. Allows greater control of the pour.
True
Ain’t no one got time for all dat
@@aidenp7232 it’s literally faster?
Definitely is bruce
Believe u can get same result by pouring it sideways I know for fact it works pouring antifreeze
crazy steal man, actually stopping to look at the slide would have been one of the last things I did. runs like hell for a $1200 2 stroke! enjoy!
If you don't feel any free play in the throttle you know the slide is hung up...
30:20 Breaks my heart when people rev cold engines like that..
Brutal on a cold motor, Pure Pit Squid
Fun to watch the wrist twisting the throttle every kick. Yup.
I call him the throttle cable melter
That was a great catch noticing the slide. Good job.
It hurts to watch you rev those bikes all the way up like that cold 🥶
And people say they are learning from him, pretty scary...
@@benschlack5814 well learn what to do and what not to do
Amen
@@jakeghiurau5976not when a 2 stoke is cold it can cease
That's how you get it warm🥴🥴
Nice you got it running!
If you sell it you will probably get better paid if you sort out the rich carburation issue first. Runs fine on main jet but quite bad on mid/lower RPMs, way too rich is my guess.
I spotted the rear disc protector was hanging loose on your test run, probably a screw missing there.
Another tip, put away all adjustable pliers and wrenches, bolt heads will go round sooner or later.
This bike sounds pretty tight & crisp, gets with the program for sure! Thanks Joe for a cool video!
That looks and sounds like so much fun. I want a 2 stroke now
Maybe I'm gonna tell you something you've already figured out....when pouring liquids out of container (like your oil) hole it on its side rather than up/down as you did. It allows the air to pass as the liquid pours, it stops that pulsing flow so it's easier to hit the target. Keep up the good videos!
There is actually a picture of a hand gripping the oil quart on a lot of quarts showing the proper pour
That thing rips I like the way the back tire gets lose when you get on it,Good to see little Vinny too👍🏼👍🏼
The beautiful sound of a Yamaha 2 stroke 250 or 490 just makes me smile. Lots of good memories on those bikes. love that sound!
You have renewed my interest in dirtbikes again. Just picked up a 2000 YZ 250 and it is fast!! Keep up the good work man. Time to do some dirtbike wheelies!!!
I picked up cr250r from 1999 🤣
Excellent systematic troubleshooting. A bike that looks good but won't run is a problem I may have.
Real issue was the clogged pilot.....then the throttle slide. I had a 97 yz 250 that looked just like that when i bought it! I miss that bike, but it was a lot to handle after not riding for 10 years lol. So much power!
The first step to diagnose a no start is to hit it with starter fluid. That well tell if it's a gas problem or a spark problem.
Bad idea on 2 strokes, I've heard but he added some 2T oil in the cylinder maybe than it's ok to use starter fluid, otherwise it'll be to dry.
@@Faelge it's ok to use starter fluid. It's been used for decades on two strokes, four strokes, and even diesels.
I mean, make sure there’s nothing your gonna suck in, etc etc etc before trying to start a unknown no start
Mines got spark and wants to start I used quick start and it sound so close to get fired up but it just back fires any idea?
Way to go joe you got a hell of a deal on that bike it rips keep up the good work God bless you and your family peace out happy holidays to you and your family. Love the way your shop turned out hope to have one as nice some day. Well peace out bro.
Nothing like warming it up. This video is perfect for why I do not buy used motorcycles 😳
i knew from my crf that ran for the longest time like shit but still started it was still not going to start after cleaning it, and i did not even think of the slide, i may have been stumped! but after you fixed the slide i was like Pow! hes got it! and it fired right up.
troubleshooting properly is one of my favorite things and what i strive for. its amazing how you can actually start replacing things unnecessarily and even break things that were never broke if you are an amateur or even if you are experienced and just have "one of those days".
Awesome video sir. It’s always something weird going on with the carb I just started fixing my own bike and jetting so this was very informative on what to check thank you
Gotta love those 2 strokes. Sounds great
I'm super impressed what you are able to get done with a $12 tool set.
it is not the quality of the tool it is skill of the mechanic
@@9vdc500ma You mean I cant buy a snapon set and become a mechanic? fucking laaaaame haha
@@Sp3llmen if you want to learn and spend 20000 .00 on a basic snapon set
u don’t even needs tools to adjust the idle 💀
12.99$$ lol
I learn something new with every episode! Thanks.
$1200 seems kinda pricey to me for a bike that doesn't run when you buy it . I guess if you're a repair guy you have confidence you can fix it then it's not a problem . It's a nice looking bike to be sure for it being 20 years old . Nice work to get it running again !!!!!
way way longer than a 20 min. fix! I would not give 200 for a old dirt bike that won't run! but that's just me but what makes me pissed is he lied 20 min? bs! why lie just to get views?
I do this all the time.. it’s knowing you’d get a good deal if you know what you’re doing. And it’s all about profit babyy.
@@chuckbreeding6223 parts are worth double what he paid, guess thats why hes restoring and your internet trolling..
@@MG-up5mh guess that's why you lie about being a 20 min. fix then? for us trollers to click bait on piss off
That bike was in such good overall shape and so clean that the problem had to have been a simple adjustment. If it'd been beaten to h*ll it wouldn't be worth much.
These two strokes dont have a choke.....they have an enrichment circuit. If you twist the throttle at all it eliminates the effects of the enrichment circuit. This is why it wouldn't start with the throttle valve up too high on the cable adjustment. Please dont twist throttle on a two stroke until it fires up.
I really like Your videos Can you do something for me/us. Don't use pliers on spark plugs and please stop using the fit all adjustable wrench on the carb teardowns. You have correct size combination wrenches, use them. Just saying. Carry on. Love your channel.
Hello. How do I get in touch with You
Another great video with a great/classic bike !!! 2 stroke YZ250 - love the steel frame bikes !!!! Thanks again Joe - truly nice work !!!!!
The power band is right on point! Sounds awesome. Great find!! Great vid!!!
That bike sounds hella wicked 😁😁 long live 2 strokes .
Great video. Problem solving skills on point. Always makes sense to go through everything.
Thanks Joe, learning a lot here. Great video!
Man Joe you always find the sweet deals! That is really good fix man!
You "weird problem" is literally something I see almost daily
Sounds super clean nice find for a good deal looks like it wasn’t abused to much as well
Holy crap you aren't afraid to rev the sack off that bike
Good tip for you , if your removing the carb it's best to just take the sub frame off as you shouldn't have to fight ut out , bit the rubber has hardend as it foes over time
You scored on this one Joe! PS: remember that this field is already planted, don't rip all the seeds out!
Looks good and seems to run good. Good job.
Good analytics and a nice, spacy garage.
Time to build-up your tool set.
The plier used to remove the spark plug, that you might do if in a real emergency, but never with bikes you care for.
There is little more frustrating than additional trouble/damage from sub-standard tools used for the wrong job.
If you are not yet there, you will find out.
Alot of TH-cam atv mechanics have the most substandard tools and some how get away with.. the right tool does the job everytime..
First time watching your channel,i like the sign in the garage lol 😂 “what happens in the garage stays in the garage”
That is one sweet bike. Love the new garage and land. You've taken the videos to the next level br9ther
Congrats bud thankfully you got a good one you deserve it you work hard on these bikes brapp brapp 👊👍
Brappp brapp
XD
Crazy how some people don't even look at things as simple as jets or the slide before deciding to sell their NICE bike for 1/3rd of its value. Some google searching and ingenuity is all this one would've taken.
that air box boot on the carb is a pain but not impossible to just pull back on to get the carb out with out removing those subframe bolts. Pain in the boot but quick. It's stiff but flexible, just took my carb off yesterday haha awesome video though man!
Such a nice bike, go to love those YZ 2 strokes!
Tthat bike is awesome wow the sound is strong
Just bought my son a 2000 yz80.
Insanely fast for its size! Nice vid
If you fixed it in 20 minutes why is the video 40 minutes? haha! Great job!
Damn dude, you lucked out BIG TIME !!! That's one HELLUVA steal, of a deal, on that bad ass bike, Congrats !!! We all only wish to come across a deal like that.
1200 is the going price on a bike that's 25 years old not really a deal
@@cheto2952 Someone hasn't checked craigslist lately, easily double that in running condition
@@Bengy22I’m looking to get into it. At this point, buying a new one is darn near better value.
@@cheto2952 not too wise bud are ya? the parts alone on ebay would go for double....just because "YOU" wouldnt pay doesnt mean its not worth that. internet troll.
You don't get almost 200 lbs of compression with just a fresh rebuild , and would expect a cut cylinder head , and would be afraid of detonation with pump gas , it probably needs at least 100 octane to combat that.
All my 250 2 strokes had just shy of 200 psi with fresh top end stock , that's normal. Premium pump gas is fine mixed 32:1 with stock jetting.
He filled the cylinder with oil before he did a compression test…it will give a false reading as it aids ring seal.
It’s the old 4 stroke trick when doing a leak down test….if your cylinder loses excessive pressure during the test, you squirt oil down the bore and repeat the test to determine if it’s rings or valves causing the leak.
@@mozer30 thought myself why hes not knowing that😂 saw that in a earlier vid of him too
Great job, looks like a blast, love the sound.
carbs work a certain way. as shade tree its always tough to know whats happening but lucky fix for you and good to see another yamaha back to life
Great video man! But how can you be so sure that the reason it didnt’ start at first was because of to much oil in the cylinder for the gass to ignite?
I wonder if you would have removed the 4 bolts on the rubber part going to the head if that would have gave you enough room to get the carburator out . Don't know bikes but was curious. I really like your show by the way, keep them coming!
I had this bike, just take the ass end off (seat and whatnot), unscrew the carb from the clamp and pull 'er out. I could have it out in about 3 minutes.
@@davem9923 Yeah, I was going to say. Ive taken mine out too many times. I just bend the air filter boot back a little with a stick
I think the way he did is the way to go. I’ve had these bikes too and many others, that was the easiest way no nonsense way of making room to easily remove and install the carb on my yzs anyway.
"Spark or fuel i would think" well i mean it is a 2 stroke so great job narrowing down those possibilities like a Boss!.... lolol
Then he proceeds to sound smart about the spark plug in the Jets😊 while telling you the numbers lol
Cool, I spotted the slide up a little when you flipped the sub frame but contributed that to pulling the carb and cable. Like you videos. I use to race a Champion framed MX250B and a HD XR750 flat tracker along with a host of other bikes. Cool watch you working.
Dream life you have bro 😍
With that high of compression someone has probably cut the cylinder deck or milled the head, maybe a thin head gasket. I would be careful running pump gas in that. Detonation will smoke that piston in a heart beat.
My thoughts exactly, need to be running 110 at the minimum
All 250 2 strokes have high compression bud this bike is bone stock if you run 110 in a stock 2 smoke you’re an idiot and you’re just wasting money race gas is made for ported heads
@@kokkouu Ported head? Lol. You're vexed alright!
Awesome I can't find any cheap bikes around here now! Wish I could and I'd start a business here at my house cause we have a huge shop that we have classic cars in!

These youtube types have all but bought up everything thinking they are going to make a youtube channel but 95% fail or never end up trying or just figure out it's nowhere as easy as most of these youtube channels make it look and give up. It takes knowhow, skill, tools and money and A LOT OF TIME! This guy has done a pretty good job of it but most don't but the point is they have been bidding the price up for anything and everything and I mean total junk that has skyrocketed everything. Fricken ridiculous. These youtube wanna be's will pay $1500 for a total rusted out seized junk bucket. 5 years ago seller would have had to pay someone to haul the junk away.

that seriously looks brand new like, fresh out of the box new and it runs amazing. I wish i had made one deal such great as this one
Great find , you should put the heaviest flywheel weight you can get on the yz , it will still be just as fast on the top but really picks up bottom end power and lugability
@Joe Shabidu I didn't say it was for the field

Nice....man I'm jealous at how many good finds there are in Wisconsin!
For real. Down here in NC everyone thinks their ragged out piece of shit is worth $2500 or more. To find anything under $2000 it's most likely missing parts or blown up.

Had a 97 yamaha for ten years. Great bike. Lots of low end and mid grunt. Not alot up top. The power valve assembly is tricky keep that part clean.
I had that same bike I loved it it was a blast thanks for all your videos very informative
A "gas wet" plug will not fire either, and it can look clean. But you can see it is wet, and it smelled like raw gas. At that point, the best thing to do is to leave the plug out, open the throttle all the way hand hand crank the kick starter to air out the engine evaporating the gas in the bottom end. You won't be able to hand crank the start lever fast enough to pick up more fuel with the throttle wide open, (but don't try), so it will get clean air. I would crank it at least 50 times, but the more you crank it, the more sure you are the gas in the bottom end is evaporated. Now,--put in a new plug,--not the wet one, to insure it fires,----and I think that bike would have started. That plug also looks like the carb has been jetted, (stock is richer than that), and maybe it has some engine work done if they had the skill to jet the carb.
I posted a reply about wet plugs, then read your reply. pre-warming a plug towards but not exceeding working temperature can help, the heat stops the petrol wetting the plug, I've used this trick successfully on an old stored bike which would not start.
I just got a 1998 Yamaha YZ 250 I've been rebuilding it too. I got it for 1200 running. I'm near the end of it. I just ordered new parts, old ones had some wear and tear. Of course my shop isn't like yours but we get it done. I have some videos too of the rebuild. I'll post them as soon as it's done. But I went through mine just like you did. I'd rather do it now than later while taking the bike apart, work smarter not harder. Honestly I'm used to ATV's this is my first bike. So I'm anxious to get out there.
Man I miss that 2 stroke sound!! I recently sold my 2 '78 DT 400's due to a incompetent nurse severing my sciatic nerve with a demerol injection for back pain. Drop foot instantly killed my shiftin' foot! Life sucks sometimes ! Enjoy every minute
Get an automatic? Can you still ride?
I always forget about changing or checking my gearbox oil, because if it's not leaking, why would you lose any, and they don't have to be changed very often, being a 2stroke having no carbon buildup like a 4stroke, but after 5 years I think my Suzuki RM did deserve a change as it smells like fish 😄.
You are correct it is sealed gear oil the only thing it needs to be changed for is clutch material and what metal it does wear off normally😊 it's sealed oil yes
Probably wouldn’t hurt next time to not flood the carb like you did on the first start up lol.
I like the way when he sticks the primer in the spark plug hole he has to jack it up and down really fast
These older late 90’s early 2000’s 250 2strokes all sit real high like you mentioned. My 00’ ktm 250 has me on my tippy toes
It's so nice to get something running like that, let alone ride it fast around a field. Now to make my way over to ebay and autotrader for a good deal on one!
Good video. What’s the purpose of rolling your bike off the trailer, starting it and immediately bouncing it off the rev limiter. Seems a little extreme and potentially damaging. I don’t even do that with my chainsaws. But I guess that’s just me.
exactly what i was thinking, i hope the video is cut
@Joe Shabidu ik bro it sputters and shit, im just hoping for the bikes sake lmao
I was thinking that also
Have a cry about it
@@ryanw724 - How about having a cry when it cold siezes and the 1200 bike needs a new piston and a 300 cylinder . . . .
Good job diagnosing the problem looks like you have a good engine
I had a 96 that sounded exactly like that. I have not heard that sound in 25 years …..I knew instantly that it sounded exactly like mine. I have had a ton of bikes. I miss it soooo much. Awesome bike.
Love this channel. 🤙 just always such a casual watch love the vibes. Vins a wild one😅😅
Great videos and I've never seen anybody kick a motorcycle as me times as you do. When I watch you go to start bikes it seems like you're always twisting it's throttle on to varying degrees. I always thought that you'd start a cold bike with a joke on and no throttle because you'll defeat the choke circuit. The only time you pump the throttle is if you haven't accelerator pump.
Exactly but he knows all
@@benschlack5814 😂
You never need to twist the throttle that much when kicking ,I bet you foul alot of plugs
Lol the way you kick over a bike is painful to watch
Hold front brake and rock back in forth to mix fuel, turn gas on ‘ possibly Choke ‘ dip bike on its side till a little fuel comes out over flow’ and get piston just past TDC so its on down stroke ‘ Then kick all the way through to get full Rotations ‘
Is Vinny a purebred Poodle? I love watching his reaction to the camera and love watching him run behind you!! Awesome dog!! Great videos!!
How did you get into fixing/restoring dirt bikes?
you just do it
buy a $500 piece of shit and try to fix it basically. Get yourself a clymers manual and with that and forums you should be able to get somewhere. You have to learn by doing so the best way to get into it is just find a project. Theres plenty of videos on what to look for in buying a used bike.
20 minutes my ass! It took you longer than that just to get to the carb. Drama drama! Funniest channel on you tube.
It was 20 minutes.... After the video was edited.....
Oh that beautiful sound, excellent job well done
Welcome to the YZ club. I have a 03 all dialed in. It's a monster 💪💪
Vinny’s frickin adorable
He knows he is too lol
@@2vintage as he should 😃
When you start the bike up without letting it warm up you supposed let it idle instead of holding on the rev limiter
lmao are you sped? there was zero rev limit in there and its doesn’t matter if you rev it cold. revving the bike cold isn’t the best for it but its not gonna hurt anything to badly.
@@parkercarlson4210 not gonna hurt unless you wanna blow up your bike
yea if he was actually holding it at rev limit like you said then i’d see where you’re coming from but buddy those 4-55 hundred rpms aren’t gonna do anything
@@parkercarlson4210 bro probably doesn’t even own a bike and still thinks he knows what he’s talking about
@@wesleyburton2926 i have three
I felt your pain with the angry kicking over , I’ve done the same thing all afternoon and still I’m clueless 😂😂
