-If you swap the locations of the kill switch and the map switch you can change maps while riding. -You can remove that rubber piece that goes around the gas cap. it will probably fall off anyways. -Will never ride a new bike without upper fork tube protection. If you dont have, wipe them at the track. dirt left on will easily corrode the factory anodizing. -A roll of 3M safety walk will make many frame grip patches. This bike needs grippy sides. i put it on the tank as well. -Antigravity batteries work well in these -If you hate the white radiator louvers like I do, krylon fusion works excellent. Prep the surfaces properly and it wont chip off. Black looks so much better.

Hoping after subscribing to your Chanel and watching most that you have posted you could help me out and do a comprehensive video on two separate subjects. The first one being adjustments to the 125 air screw and jets. There are a lot of videos out there but sometimes the production of the videos make it a little hard to follow. Second subject being how to adjust your front and rear suspension. My 2021 yz125 is really stiff and I absolutely know that the front and rear both need to be softened up.I believe your in Texas but I am at sea level in Maryland and with the changing tens and being at sea level I am constantly going through plugs. Anyway I am sure you get the point. Thanks for the great videos and I hope to see some on the subjects I mentioned. Thanks

depends on what you want to do, the 125x is a cross country bike, so if your looking to ride mx one weekend and trails the next, its perfect, also lower maintence, but if you're looking for a true mx bike then the 250 is the way to go, also depends if you want to race or not, if you're more of a casual rider than the 125 is probably best, but on a line with other motocross 125s wouldn't do so well, and vice versa

If you primarily do deep sand dune riding I recommend a 450. Any 250F will need to be screaming to get around in deep sand, especially with hills and jumps. A 450 can pull you through the sand way easier, at less effort to the engine. Because you probably won’t need to scream a 450 wide open most of the time, the motor likely will need less servicing than a 250F in the long run.
