Who doesn’t love a bit of two-stroke goodness!

WHEN THE TINKERING GENE and a love of RZs are passed on to a younger generation, the force can be strong.

When your bike is left behind by newer machines with better handling, huge brakes and tons more power it’s probably smarter to just trade your old bike in and go new. But when you have a passion for Yamaha 2-strokes this is simply not on. The answer is to modify your older bike with some newer goodies so it can compete with the newer bikes and give you a whole lot more street cred at the same time.
