Btw, I know I mentioned it to you before - but, for anyone else reading: Loctite 2422 would be best for exhaust bolts. 2422 is high-temp rated, up to 500F I believe? Maybe less but, I haven't done that myself. I grabbed some new nuts to double-up the exhaust like stock for now. May do that sometime, but it's been solid for a good while; after having replaced them due to vibrating loose! Other than that - most of what fits the YZ250 / YZ450 and the CRF250L will fit this bike! Except the exhaust.. I had to take some hits on the wallet to find what fits the bike. But, settled on the Orion RXB catless pipe - not cheap, but direct fit - almost. I smacked a dent where the clutch cable lever is; was lightly touching the pipe causing it to slip out of gear. I have a cheap composite skid plate that I got for the YZ250, hooked right up! Also been using the TwinAir pre-oiled YZ450 air filter (Amazon) which REALLY got rid of the down-rev popping; and sounds like more consistent air flow. OH yeah - the chain / sprocket pitch... I thought I was beefing up the drive by getting all 520 pitch stuff, thinking it was all 428..... and 520 is what's STOCK on the bike ![]() Feels good to be back on! I'm going to do more posting as I get to it and do more work. Definitely going to get better at turning on the GoPro - that crash would have been a great example on sturdiness of the bike!
