I found a 99 yz 125 for 3100. I have been looking for a 250r for a while with no luck. Im about ready to give up, sell my blaster and buy the yz. I dont know if i should get into dirt bikes though. The only 250r i found was out of my price range. It had wider a-arms, longer axle, custom axis shocks and a lot more mods. I think the guy wants around 5000 for it but i dont have that kind of money. The yz is in great shape, im pretty sure its all stock. I dont know what to do, my blaster is just too small for me and its holdin me back. Im 5'10, 215. My height isnt bad on it but my weight is.

 

When you say you removed the snorlel, What exactly is the snorkel and what benifet do you get removing it.

 

The snorkel is on the front of the airbox lid. It is supposed to give it more airflow. I didnt notice any difference.
