Can't wait to read the comments😂🤣🤣😂
I'm pretty new to 2 strokes I just bought my first banshee about 2 months ago. Anyhow my qeustion is does yz490 not have a power band? The reason I ask is when I dig into my banshee I fill and hear the shift in power and I dont hear on the 490. So does older bike have different setup? Thanks for any info on this have a blessed day
brianj123458 are you really asking him this??? Ask someone who knows what they are doing this dude don’t know shit about bikes!!!
cant wait for you to actually let the bike fully rev
Yeah they don't Kno shit about bikes. They could sell all that junk and have 2 bikes that would be worth a fuck.
I’m not trying to hate on you, I respect you’re learning about 2 strokes, as so am I. But come on man, that thing sounds like dog shit. A 2 stroke should scream when revved out, especially that bike. Start with changing your plug, if that doesn’t fix it, re jet it. Start with the simple things first. I had a Yamaha blaster, it was very hard to start like that, turns out the stator was bad. You could pull the fly wheel and check, it wouldn’t hurt
Dude......are you for real? It runs like shit. "I just redid the whole bike.....I drained the gas and cleaned the carb"......wth??
jeff baer u sold that bike to him
nasty huh?
Re did the whole bike 😭😭😭😭😭 sorry try again
AMENNN !!! ! !!! HE HAS NEVER SEEN HOW THE CARBURATOR IS PROPERLY TUNED !!! ! !!!
Clogged up fart knocker. Sounds awful. Powerband is non existent. Should be screaming.
ik its so annoying im not even trying to be a cocky person right now but i think my 2019 ktm 112 supermini picks up speed faster then that thing
@@BMBradyy Yeah, it sounds like shit.
After reading ur comment...I don't need 2 watch, thanks!
Badass Skeptic I wrote wrong but yes it should be pure torque picking that wheel up with ease and not sounding like popcorn wfo
I rode a 465 once....... Once!
That thing scared the sheet outa me... But agree with above... Something still off with this bike...
There is definitely something wrong with that 490 it should be a hard time keeping that front end down and it doesn't even sound like its hitting powerband yet
Exactly what im saying man!! You all gears should power wheelie with this little weasel on it
What the fuck kind of power band are you talking about these bikes are all low end torque and if you think you can tell 100% by a video how a bike is running than you’re just as stupid as this kid
I had the exact bike for 5 or 6 years, it was ridden wide open every time I fired it up. Now I'm far from being a pro mx'er but it's the only way you can ride these 2 stroke bikes, it's how they were engineered to be ridden.
I sold my 490 about 2 years ago so my memory isn't cloudy on it. I can tell you without a doubt, and from many, many hours atop mine, on every conceivable terrain and tarmac (well....you know what I mean😉) that under NO circumstances would you be able to go through the gears on asphalt with a REASONABLY well running 490 without lifting the front wheel every gear. And that's also while trying to keep it down as much as possible.
You would have to lugg the ever loving shit out of it to keep that wheel in constant contact with the asphalt
@@atcmxz5989 you can certainly tell if a bike is running shit on a video, this is running as shit as it possibly could, like damn it takes nearly 10 seconds to accelerate from 30 to 50 mph, and even a fucking 50cc can do 0-60 in under 10 seconds when tuned well
@@glennjames2324 You are 100% right, I had a 1982 Suzuki RM465 for 8 years and every word you said is true. On the street it should be pulling the front wheel in every gear but 5th. I think the kid is loading up the engine by letting it idle for so long and it takes forever to clean out. It should be pulling so hard after a couple minutes or so it pulls your hands off the handlebars.
No ambulance, so still not running right...
@John Fields lol.. thats no joke. My 84 was a crazy bitch and it dam near killed me many many times..lol
My 83 in yellow and black...4 speed had the unpredictable power band. It was always trying to kill me
The older 4 speeds even in bad shape would hit 95-100
Husky 701 lmao!!!!!!!
I agree with these guys, now granted mine was bored .80 over with a brand new top end. It didn't even sound like that tho, it screamed. I couldn't do the full throttle 1st, 2ñd, 3rd on pavement without it nearly flipping.
That Bike sound like some trash.💩 It sounds like it's about to bog out! 🙉
STILL TOOO RICH FUEL MIXTURE !!! ! !!!
This Bike is only running at 25% of it's full potential. That bike should raise the tire in every gear. I think you need new reed valves and possibly a top end rebuild.. You should be scared to ride this bike if it is running at full potential. Good Video Tho.
Like every one else said mate it’s not running right. It’s bogging & not hiting powerband. It’s a 2 stroke & should be braaaaaap, braaaaap, not bututututut.
Hahaaha 😂
It shouldn't be tutting...........
It
Should be zinging & dinging 😳🤷🏼♂️
yeah, when it stopped i thought he was going to find he left the choke on. i used to own one of these and no way in hell i would be game to ride it wearing shorts..it’s criminal what he is doing to that bike.. jetted right it would sit him on his ass..
Umm...I think you know that bike is not running correctly.Please don’t ruin that classic by doing ”high speed runs” while the air/fuel ratio is obviously shit.Makes me wanna cry.,sorry but it does.
Jetting is way off!!!find a mechanic ..an old experienced mechanic bud
Why dont you fix the bike instead of riding it?
Ino sounds like bag of shit
Vhjvb Hjb he don’t know shit on fixing bikes!!!! Lmfao
Need a good over haul like engine needs propa tear down check top end the rings and see if it's choked up with carbon and see if piston is ok and cylinder to
Mic Jubba exactly i cant ride my knew bikes with good contions without going through them. Especially if they dont run right
Aaron Troutman i’ve noticed that.
And they are basic fucking things he doesnt know about. After owning and working on so many bikes and not even know the basics of an engine is insane.
You should go back to just buying bikes that already work and selling them, because we all know this whole "fixing them" thing isn't working out.
Notice no comments... You speak the truth
he has smarts so there's no reason why he can't learn to be a good mechanic The kid has a university education that proves he can absorb knowledge. He also has the balls to post all the offensive threatening,name calling shit
I'm starting to think he is a troll lol there is no way he thinks that bike is running good
I stated that it needs to be rejet multiple times in the video...
Starting to think the same. But it is entertaining....We have an 81 it125 Barn find has original graphics, plastics, tires, chain, sprockets. We take it camping as a spare bike once a year, starts right up, hits power band instantly with no maintenance. Lol
2vintage so why ride it? I can tell you are stupid as fuck and dont know anything about engines especially 2 strokes
😂😂
THEN DO IT ! stop being a dumbass
Clutch slipping still Joe. Still not hitting the pipe. You need to check for air leaks on the intake boot and throw a compression gauge on it. You've got a great attitude and I enjoy your videos but you need to take some pointers. A 2 stroke tell you what's wrong just by sound, smoke color and volume, plug color. From where i'm at it still has issues. Doesn't actually clean up until higher speed. If I lived near you I would fix it for you.
Rigguy.thats cool you gave him the honest answer ever nice about it. I your video of the it250 after the boyesen valve's, crankin Willy's in every gear. The guy with the 490 really needs to watch your video that's what should be happening with the guys for 90 and if it isn't happening like that his tuning is way off or worse.
@@conservativerealist If I give it all I got it would look over real easy. I just am real good working with carburetors. When they’re jetted right, they run right. It’s as simple as that.
@@conservativerealist I’m not rude with him because he keeps trying and keeps learning and getting better and he has more ambition than most people his age. You give encouragement to the young instead of criticism. The people that are rude don’t get it.
@@rigguyjt right on man.seems like you have, and understand what good leadership skills are.My brother had an 82 or 83 IT250,seeing yours brought back the memories.have a good one.
@@conservativerealist you too
that bike should be going at least 90 or 100
I would say 85 to 87 is the top speed, those bikes were not made to go 100 mph, I had a 1982 Suzuki RM465 and I would say the top speed was about 85 mph, the only way to get them to 100 mph is to put a smaller sprocket on the rear. And I think 85 mph is fast enough, not sure how it would handle at 100 mph. I had mine for 8 years and nobody could keep up with me, and my top speed was around 85 mph.
No it’s not powerful. It’s clapped.
Haha you never ridin one? even a clapped out 490 is fast.
Feel much better now after reading just the first few comments, it needs leaned out and would hit over a 100 in half that time. It hurt hearing it run like that!
I am a quite new subscriber, but I´m sorry to say that I will leave again.
You just do not want to improve your videos. Its always the same.
People tell you that this bike does not run anywhere near good. You do not care and post more videos with clickbait titles.
And then your videos are tedious to a watch. Stretched in length with boring crap nobody wants to see, repeating yourself over and over again, and lots of talking before you actually do something.
Many people, including myself tried to help you to get better, but you either do not read comments or you do not care at all.
Man in the Mirror u suck
@@mattyfattypatty1338 you must be joes boyfriend.
Mirror man is spot on. Sam shit different day!
Wearing shorts and t shirt! Oh yeah better put gloves on dude 🤣
I agree safety is key
And dirtbike boots lol
Omg.. I don't even know what to say anymore..no gas? And it didn't disappoint? Perfect.
please stop it, it’s not running right. Turn the petals round on the reeds if it has any!
then take a look at the jetting. up the pilot jet for starters
The wobbly wheel is the knobbly tyres.
had a similar condition on my old IT250, cleaned the carb loads of times , new needle jet new main new pilot. drove me mad .
went mad on it in the end, new rings ( smaller ring gap) new case gaskets clean air filter clean exhaust and sealed the manifold with silicon and bang it flies. did notice the base gasket was leaking whilst doing it.
but you can’t do that yet you need to set the carb up to stock jets and needle position first and work from there using the mixture screw. but there are basic checks to do first air filter ... does it work? are the reeds bent/broken? is the reed cage sealed? check the plug colour is it wet or dry?
personally i wouldn’t run it 40:1 maybe 38:1 but 32:1 if you want it to last.
hope you get it sorted and we see a fixed it holy crap video next time.
now go and watch a carb tuning video !
Why would you go up a size on the pilot get when it's way to rich?
And from the sounds of it id start with the main cuz it's not even close
chuck billyard is it to rich though? mixture just sounds all wrong to me blocked filter maybe, air leak? it’s been down sized anyway( previous video) so going back to stock jets for your start position.
@@gtisid o I agree on going back to stock jets. And I agree with check the air filter. An also a good u idea to check the intake boots
I feel so sorry for this awesome big bore. Runs like absolute shit. I thought it was going to lock because of how rich it was running. No trying to hate, but you need to learn about the stuff your talking about.
@Badass Skeptic I think so too, clogged up passages. He should run with choke and see if better or worse.
Jay Franklin 71 running to rich will cause it to run lean and blow (i know it sounds weird but that’s just how it works)
@Badass Skeptic if it was running lean we would've heard the Powerband by now! Its running super rich
Brandon Ellison two different types of a lean engine, one is where there is not enough oil to lubricate the engine. This will cause the bike to run reallyyy well until it seizes. The other type is when there is wayyy to much oil and that causes the engine to run slow, it runs slow because of friction... friction = heat causing it to seize hence a lean condition. I know it’s stupid to call it lean but that’s how it is
It would lock if lean
Funny how you comment “can’t wait to read comments” people aren’t always hating there just trying to help you, you shouldn’t be happy with it, it’s running like shit. That’s fact, not hate. Actually acknowledge what people are telling you and you might learn something instead of making yourself look like a clown
Too rich, air leaks, bad clutch, good 125 would kill this thing, up 55mph
My rd 200would beat it all day long ..what a bogger and a slug.he has no idea.whst fast is
Needs a real dial in muxture is out this us why i love yama lube oil injection it right on everytime..these kids probly never did a compresion test oh well they think its so fast dream on
Redone the hole thing😂 cleaned carb and drained the gas😂😂wtf
This Dude is something else 😂
Way to rich! Lean er out or re-jett it, That 490 should be close to yanking your arms off neighbor
Ned Flanders My thoughts exactly... he should tune the bike first then if he can’t get the correct air/fuel mixture then re jet then tune again.
Ned Flanders my 65 pulls harder than this
My non running blaster pulls harder than the yz with the way it’s running rn
@@caliber50young65 😂😂
fix it instead of riding it pls man
it's not how fast you go, but how quick you get there, dude you better wear proper gear .unless you like pain skin graphs and infections
“Hohohoho we were cruisin they boys” plz dude the bikes shot jet ur carb
Dude you got alot to learn lmao that thing is #clapped
Yes, needs some work. I'm an old guy. Bought an '83 brand new in 1983. Was a monster. Could ride all day in 2nd gear. Very heavy bike for a guy my size. I was about 155 lbs then. Used to flat out race a guy that had a CR500. Couldn't race on grass or anywhere there was traction or they would flip. Had to run on a dirt road. We ran neck and neck everytime. We ran them hard to try to beat each other. The 490 did take a few minutes to warm up, but after that..the wild ride started. Hard to kick to get started also. Definitely had to respect it. Not a good trail bike if you had itchy trigger finger. To sum it up, they were point and shoot machines. Had to lean over the tank to try to keep it down. Was a blast!
Do any of ur bikes run properly that sounds like a strangled cat gonna blow that thing quick
Why put effort in care into a hunk of shit bike like that anyways
Please learn tuning. It’s for the best. Love the videos and this YZ
Does this guy even read the comments 🙄🙏
Fix that damm bike man the jetting is really bad that thing should lift the front in every gear from a blip not wide open not barely getting out of its own ways I've ridding 125s that have more tourqe lol
Your 250 sounds way better than that thing. It doesn't sound right.
something is still wrong that bike should be hard to keep the front on the ground , i have seen them come up in every gear as soon as you hit the gas , it should be snappier even with a smaller back sprocket .
Agreed. I had one it was insane. This bike isn't even hitting the powerband. Watch other YZ490 videos, the thing screams.
This thing runs like the rest of his bikes. total garbage . no clue at all
I don't understand how this dude still hasn't learned how to jet a 2 stroke😢
It's what you call a special dude
Early in his career evil Knievel realized more fans came when he wrecked versus if you landed a jump I think this guy is the evil Knievel a motorcycle mechanics he's blowing shit up on purpose.
Ohh muh gawwd😂
Master troll for sure, but if you are not then
1.Check the timing.
2.Buy a Keihin pwk39, start with early 90s KX500 jetting and tune from there.
3. Throw it out.
You will know when you get it running right.
You and the clutch are cooked
You really really need to take it to someone that can properly jet that bike. You'll be glad you did, and it won't cost much.
Hey guys apparently you need gas to ride a dirt bike lol 😂
I never would have thought 😂
He’s being sarcastic
@@coleseaweed2494 r/woooooosh
Sorry to tell ya bud but that bike still has problems it should get to top speed faster then that it's not a moped
Please take down the listing for 2300 it is not worth a dime
should be called how to try to blow up a yz 490
You should wear gear, especially on such a powerful machine it's still not running right and not even hitting powerband.
that bike sounds awful especially around the 3:43 mark. you really need to look online, figure out what size jets you need for that bike and verify the needle is in the correct clip position. its clearly not "POWERFUL" as stated in the title
Sounds like a weed whacker
Dude says he rebuilt the whole bike, bit didnt even no sprocket sizes, also says he cant wait to read comments, my man all the hate, you do yourself, it's all in what your sayin, maybe he should learn a little more about bikes b4 posting on a public websites! Just sayin, people bring hate to themselves just by what they say an do!
Bike has no power band at all.
That sounds like an absolute bag of shite. It’s not running right at all. It’s not even lifting that should be spitting you off. You need help!!!
All the gear, no idea
A 490 should be wheelstanding at 100 that is no where near running right
I had a 83 490 and hit 96. It was a 4 speed, loved it. Took every hole shot at the track.
Son, if it was geared up to do 96, 3rd gear would be useless on a motocross track, and you would get smoked exiting turns.
I have a YZ 490 and I can tell you that your speed is off by 1/3.. that bike is 112 mph capable. It's an insane bike.. I haven't ridden mine in years but if it's running right it can and most likely will destroy you. That bike is made from pure adrenaline!
I like that hank well said that describes those monsters perfectly
Thats what i think he is about 3/4 throttle. I rode these back in the 80's and that wasnt even close to how violent they are
I really didn’t know what kind of speed it would do , but just guessing I thought around a 100 , and get there quickly. I have a 1989 model I bought new. I rode it a half dozen times and parked it. The thing still looks like the day I bought it
Lol just when I thought oh hear we go hear comes the 2 smoker but no another hoogggeee fix your bikes or get a pro to look at it your just make in them worse
I'm so mad and upset for this 2 stroke that I'm gonna go against everything i love and go watch a 4 stroke video good day to you sir!
Yes I know dude VERY FRUSTRATING!!
I had an 86, impossible to jet, factory flaw in the head. I modified the head , polished the ports, rejetted it , and made it 10:1 compression. I was a real beast, ran great, stood up in third gear.
"I just redid the whole bike" drains gas,cleans carb.
My KX 125 Would smoke that thing come on man! There's one good thing about you not tuning your bikes right once you do it right your going to have the shock of a lifetime and it's going to be a blast but this is terrible
Hey @2vintage, That bike still doesn't sound like it's jetted right. That thing should almost tear your arms off when you grab a handfull. I'm amazed at the deal you got on it. Nice looking bike man.
Have you ever had a bike that the "jetting" wasn't off?🤣🤣🤣
Talk about shifting to early and choked up lol 🤣
Put a new spark plug in it and it will be much faster you let it idle too long it’s a two-stroke
Bike runs like absolute garbage, a 125 would smoke it with the way it's running
Mine for sure
And i have a yamaha dt 125 r
The reeds are cracked or the crank seal are leaking
@2vintage , that yz490 is not running right still , its not getting the power down from the get go , you can hear it when you pull away its just lacks any power and when your onto the throttle its just not hitting the powerband , please go youtube other yz490's and you will hear that yours is not running as its should do . its not hitting any powerband in 1 -2 -3 -4 and it should be scream, trust me when that bike is running propper it will tear your arms off and scare you to death . watch this vid and listen to the sound of the motor : th-cam.com/video/c1dlhNGRhqk/w-d-xo.html.
Needle and seat in the carb are for throttle from 0 -40% , main jet is from 40% to WOT
Defo something wrong with that every 2 stroke you drive bogs bad, that thing should be wheeling putting your rev back, you should keep setting your air screw whiles you test it to see if it gets better mate
Hey man I just want to say you should do a video of actually riding the bikes like a track day or trails you have these bikes and all you do is rip up and down the street and you live around tons of property. a track day would be sweet!! And I love the older bike content best on TH-cam
You should do some tuning on the carb you should check the reeds too and maybe the cluch also maybe do a compression test or something I think your jets are too high check on the internet to see what stock jets are because that bike I not running right but still great vid
I'm thinking, if you can't remember to put gas in the thing, maybe better throw some pants on when you do 80 on it.
Cool bike.
Cleaning it won't make much a difference need do maintenance of the engine / ignition parts / spark plug / correct jettings check reed valves aint stuck / ignore if u done must that already lol
Brah listen to you're subscribers they help you to do what you like to do. Stop trashing on you're bikes. Fix them properly and if you can't then just put it away till you can fix it then make a video. All you are showing people is you can buy a bike say you fixed it then you trash on it then sell it saying it's fast and has lots of power when it's straight garbage. You're selling people bikes that are not of quality that you say they are.. how do you even making money I feel that you're Business is going to go bankrupt.
Imagine how many more followers this guy would have if he fixed his bikes properly smh this is a disgrace
Bike is still loaded. I would definitely try putting stock jets back In. You will be amazed at the power diffidence if you get the jetting right. Sound like your pilot and main jet are to rich.
That carburettor needs setting properly, I can't express to you how much that bike isn't running right, if it was youd have trouble keeping the front end down and you be getting of it shaking.. I promis you that bike isn't running right
Do a leak down test its runs like its crank seal is blown
Please don't give him any idea's. Maybe he'll give up and let someone who knows 2 stroke engines look at it . A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
Crank seals or one of the reeds has fallen in or someone forgot that pistons need rings on em.
My cr85 would outrun that bike it runs like complete crap😂
The speed is there man but people are right about the way it sounds. It's like the power band is non existent
Id be quite suprised the day i see him actually working on a bike to make it betterinstead of taking it apart and putting it back together just how he took it off. god damn i commented this before that this guy knows fuck all and got hate😂
first 2 stroke i know of that aint got a power band😂 just sounds like mower need to have a good look over that
should be lifting piece of piss
Sounds more like a weedeater!. HAHA
I had a PW50 ... Lol
I refuse to believe this guy is serious ... Stating “shot off like a rocket” , “throws you back” , “did not disappoint”.... Please listen to Quad Vloggs and watch Niemelas tuning video and learn the fundamental skill of tuning a motorcycle.
You have got to be kidding me 😂
That is not running right
Thing sounds like poop Still
did u fix the suzuki 50 cylinder head torque ?
I like watching your channel cause it never makes me think anything a do is ghetto or dumb when I compare it to you lol
Wow in the mid range thing sounds like garbage
Dude I know that thing needs to be redone it sound like crap
That thing sooooo clapped out. 🤦♂️
There is something wrong with it still. Low 90s should be where this bike runs. Lean it out a bit more. I would also pull the silencer and see if the packing is clogged. All friendly suggestions I've owned a couple of these bikes and it doesn't sound quite right yet.
Next thing you know the yz has blown up. new plug is couple of doller witch is nothing then rejet or order a lectron carb no adjustments needed and bit more power will run better. then go from there that should sort the problems no wonder he was selling it cheap
Clapped 👌
You want speed get you an old xr650 the water cooled ones the big red pig fast
Thats a xr650r
What i said
Obviously you need a larger slide cutaway, leaner needle and pilot jet and a N2G variable heat range spark plug. Cylinder head squish area mid would help also.....
Holly Molly Doughnutshop I dont know what's funnier you or your bike!! lol
That don’t sound healthy at all 😂😂
it doesn't run right at all
When I buy a bike with issues, I just spend the money and freshen up topend, new hoses, air cleaner, plug, oil, head/cylinder gaskets, and completely go through carb with new jets (cause they're cheap). When that's done, break in and start fresh. Never fails to solve all problems.
Joe listen to the comments tune this bike correctly!!! It won’t even wheelie
