My Favorite 2021 Yamaha YZ250F Maps

Here are two of my favorite maps that I have tried for the 2021 YZ250F. Both give a distinct different feel, but each offer something that I feel the YZ250F needs. Yes, you can also try these in your 2020 YZ250F as well. Less engine braking. More mid range and top end pulling power.

Randy Richardson’s World Vet/2021 YZ250F Experience

#WhatTheHelen It started with a text message. Steve Matthes sent a photo to Kris and me Sunday evening, November 1, of a freshly installed MICHELIN® StarCross® 5 Soft front tire along with the comment “World Vet prep”. Ever being the jokester, my quick reply was; “When do I need to fly in?”From there, things escalated really…

2021 Yamaha YZ450F Baseline Settings/Mods

The 2020 and 2021 Yamaha YZ450F’s are identical minus some different graphics, so this gave me a chance to experiment more with standard settings as well as other aftermarket mods for this machine. For a bike that may get some flak thrown its way in the professional motocross racing world, this Yamaha YZ450F machine has…

Slater Skins Air Box Cover (Yamaha YZ250F/450F)

Remember Slater Skins? Yeah, the Blue Buffalo Supercross Team that had the complete signage/coverings across their bikes was John Slater’s brainchild, but most recently he has started to offer air box covers for late model YZ-F’s that increase airflow. We all know more air equals more power, but how does it relate to the track?…

FLO Motorsports Lowering Footpegs (Yamaha YZ450F)

If there is one thing I can complain about on the Yamaha YZ450F, it would be that the ergos are a little weird compared to the other brands. When sitting, the Yamaha feels like the pegs are high and not far enough back for my 6’0 long legged frame. I scoured the land for a…

Which Bike Is Best For You? 2021 Yamaha YZ450F Vs. Kawasaki KX450

The average shootout format seems to be an outdated model to me. Don’t get me wrong, I like doing shootouts, as well as viewing their rankings after all is said and done, but is it really telling you, the potential consumer, what you want to know or is it more of a scene on the…
