2001 Yamaha XT225 project for person celebrating in picture.
They're good bikes, ideal for learning how to off-road and the parts are readily available ... good luck!
The parts availability is why we got this bike. We originally went to look at a much more rare Honda NX250 but I figured she'd crash enough that we'd struggle to find parts.
Well, with a dirt bike she'll be able to throw it at the ground with gusto!
Great choice. Is it a first bike?
Technically her third but really her second...and first.
Her first bike was a '86 Honda elite which she didn't have for very long before getting the Yamaha Xmax. She's had the Xmax for 3? Years but it's starting to hold her skill back especially on dirt soooooooo we got her a dirt friendly bike to learn more skills.
She's a bit intimidated about relearning a clutch (hasn't ridden a manual bike since 2020) but is excited overall. I'm hoping to have the bike in a ridable state by this weekend if all goes well.
Seems pretty fuckin' sound to me.
