hi guys,
I can get an older YZ 250 for a really good deal. I would like to make that bike a sumo conversion.
is it possible...I dont just want to go sportsman, but getting wheels for this bike should be fine even though its older?
Motostrano doesnt have anything for '97 only starting at '98

Please advise...
 
i have wheels/brakes off a 2005 yz250 smoker

buy mine if they fit, haha


EDIT: holy hell, where have u been man?
 
hey buddy! hell yeah.......Iwill only get it for sumo, so I need to make sure i can get wheels 4 it!

its good to hear from ya'
Ive been good.riding ADVENTURE Style now for 2 years, going to a dirt ride to 14,000 feet in the sierras this weekend! You? still work at Cycle Gear?
 
yup yup.

if the wheels fit make me an offer i cant refuse. i was asking $1500 with brakes
 
It would be fast and light for sure but lack engine braking so make sure you get some really good brakes. A stock set up would probably warp the rotors. :cool
