    This 2015 Yamaha YZ250f has been taken apart, scrubbed up and put back together. I ended up ordering a few new parts to get this bike fresh. I'm pretty stoked on how it turned out. Stay tuned for the next build!

    Would you guys be interested in a custom build on my cr250? Let me know.

      Hey Jourdon! I noticed the Montana plate, and deja moto forks! Pretty cool to see both since I live there and our shop i work at offers the deja moto suspension set up from that guy. He does some awesome work and he is a genius when it comes to suspension!

    • @JourdonGulick
      @JourdonGulick  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey! That's awesome. All I've heard is great things about him as well. Hopefully I can get a set of forks tuned by him one of these days.

    Mostly cosmetic stuff on this bike, but ended up making a decent chunk of change. By the way, the previous owner said it was never raced. HA! Pretty sure that's all it was used for. Off camera I of course did a quick valve check and complete fluid change. See you guys on the next one!

    If you’re trying to make money flipping bikes, why did you even bother purchasing any of those parts other than the fork seals and the exhaust end cap? You could have just cleaned it up really well and sold it. This bike doesn’t really look bad.

    • @JourdonGulick
      @JourdonGulick  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, I made plenty of money off of it. Adding on those extra cheap parts allows me to make that extra $3-400 and also allows the buyer to get a cleaner used bike.

    You can use sand paper and a blowtorch to get the scratches out of the plastic

    • @QuentinPostlewaite
      @QuentinPostlewaite 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      As long as you don’t use too much heat it turns out next to brand new. I always do it along the edges of the plastic when I take graphics off to replace them

    Did you have any issue with the new rivets? I’m replacing the carbon tip on my FMF and can’t for the life of me get the strength to squash the rivets in there. What kind of a rivet gun did you use?

      No. It was tough, but you should be able to. Just a hand riveter.

      Basically every bike is sold as is. I'm not being deceptive when selling it and anything I know about the bike gets passed on to the buyer. At the point it's sold it is out of my hands.

    • @JourdonGulick
      @JourdonGulick  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good deal on the bike. Yeah, on that bike it should have a yellow "choke" knob on the left side. Turn it left and you'll feel it click and hear the bikes idle increase. Turning it right decreases the idle.

      I check all wear parts and grease things if necessary. In this case, everything was either in good condition or recently serviced. Wouldn't want to waste time/money on parts that are still good and functional. If the wear parts and engine components are still good then there's no harm adding some cosmetic stuff to the bike.
