Is it my eyes or does it have a problem with the chain coming off?

That would have to be the tightest chain I have seen in a long time , they usually adjust them up like that when there's a problem. :)

While we're on the YZA/B subject, a mate was going through his Yamaha parts stash last week and found a complete YZ 250-A bottom end that he'd totally forgotten he had.....Yep, the stuff's still out there.

Rebuilt........ piston and rings i suspect. 

Somthing wierd about the front brake too.  Buts its what it is a bitsa and at least he says so.

Still for  $3,500 its be a good ride.   But they is a lot of this kit coming out at the moment, the GFC is turning into a problem.  too many cheap bikes coming out and making the also ran look very dear.

I just picked up a stash of a and b stuff infact 3 complete frame for less than half that,  but the problem is thats a lot of work when you look at finished and even resto ones in the Us for the same price , why would you do your own build or pay for the average stuff  ???
