The Low Budget Yamaha SR250 Custom is Complete! EP 7

From a non-running bike to a low-budget Yamaha SR250 custom build in two months - it's been a challenging, fun, and educational journey! I hope you've enjoyed watching these vids as much as I've enjoyed making them. In this video I take the bike for a ride through the countryside and think back about the build, explaining some of the choices made and challenges encountered along the way. If you haven't watched the other videos in this build series you can use this playlist to see them all: https://bit.ly/344S2uR

This channel is for motorcycle riders, mechanics, and enthusiasts who enjoy the simple joys of motorcycling, from dual sport riding to fixing up old bikes on a budget. My videos also consider the perspective of short motorcycle riders (when it’s helpful and relevant) in choosing and modifying bikes and equipment.

I’ve been hooked on motorcycles since 1975 when, at the age of 11, my dad brought home a shiny new Suzuki TM75 for me and a Suzuki TC185 for himself so that we could trail ride together in the hills of West Virginia. Since then I’ve worked as a mechanic, owned countless bikes, and even worked in the motorcycle industry for a number of years as a photographer and journalist. Now I do mainly video production and enjoy nothing more than making and sharing these motorcycle videos on YouTube.

Thanks again for watching. Ride safe!
