    Convince My Girlfriend to Let Me Buy Another Blaster?

    So my buddy Dillon and I swapped frames so he could have one that's titled without going through a bunch of legal BS. I'm getting his frame, which the previous owner lost the title for, but wouldn't apply for a new one. Now, New Jersey is easy to get a title for if you can prove ownership, this...

    2018 TRX250X

    So, as some of you know, I parted out my Blaster the other week. I made so much money off parting it out that I put down about 50% on a brand-new, leftover TRX250X. Let me tell you, this thing is as much fun as the Blaster and it's great for bigger guys like myself (265lbs and 6'0"). It's a...

    Sad

    So it is with a heavy heart that I am parting-out my 1991 Blaster. I've dumped over $2000 in parts into it since I bought it a few months ago and it's given me nothing but a headache for the past three. It was fun to rebuild it and ride it for awhile, but it really started to show how the...

    Trenga Rear Brakes (Can They Be Improved)

    Hello! So I bought a Trenga Gen3 Rear Caliper setup from a fellow member (Jesse Colon) on here. I know these Gen3's have questionable braking abilities as well as a fairly unknown status on what parts were used/sourced. Let me give some background on why I decided to buy this: I used to play...

    ** UPDATES DUE TO FLU STUPIDITY **

    Hello my fellow riders, As of 4/4/2020, Centralia is CLOSED PERMANENTLY. Due to a bunch of disrespectful wahoo's and people throwing wild parties, PA State Police and the owners of the property are back-filling graffiti highway and putting mounds on it. From here forward, all trespassers will...

    Stiff Front Brake Lever (Hydraulic Conversion)

    Hey Everyone, So last thursday I swapped my entire front-end for a 2004 Blaster. I picked everything up (minus the master and new rotors) for $150. Galfer Lines sure are a thing of beauty! Since I had no way to keep the line from going into the steering shaft, I had to zip-tie it loosely to...

    Front Brake Upgrades

    Let's just start off by saying this is NOT a "how do I convert my crap drum brakes to disc brakes" thread. Anyways, I picked up a full front brake setup from a 2004 Blaster for $150 last night in Scranton, PA. I've been looking online and this brake setup is expensive, even with going the KOR...

    Qing Da Tire

    So...I bought the cheapest "GNCC Tread Pattern" tire I could find for my Blaster (10" ITP Rear Wheels) These set me back about $93 for the pair and were shipped to my door in about three days from Amazon. Let me start off by saying they were a pain to seat the bead. The first tire I had to...

    Stock Yamaha Blaster "Top Speed"

    I'm sick and tired of seeing all of these posts about "what sprockets should I use" or "how fast is my Blaster." I'M ENDING THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL! Please reference the following photo for STOCK engine/gearing/tires/chain/sprockets: I converted the standard tire size into the metric size...

    Cable Brakes and Why?

    So the old lady and I went out riding a week and a half ago. The DCNR trail by me has a lot of water and rocks. With that being said, my '91 became a Blaster. I lost the rear brakes and the fronts faded after about an hour of very hard riding. Can someone please tell me why Yamaha decided that...

    Wheel Spacer/Wheel Fitment Concerns

    So, let me start off by saying I'm an idiot and I should have measured the offset of my wheels beforehand. Now that we have that out of the way, I bought a set of 10" x 5" .190 ITP's for my Blaster the other day. I had bought a used set of aluminum wheels for $140 about a month ago that had...

    1992 Yamaha YZ250

    I'm probably going to get yelled at for doing something wrong...or because it's a dirtbike. Anyways, this is a copy-paste from my Craigslist ad as well as Faceboob. Please view the pictures and let me know if you or anyone you know is interested. I will deliver the bike within a reasonable...

    Newbie Blaster Owner

    Hello! My name is Dan, I'm from Northeastern Pennsylvania and I recently acquired an almost immaculate 1991 Blaster WITH A TITLE. This has no aftermarket parts and even has the original tires from 1991 (three digit DOT code vs. a four digit DOT code). I've wanted a Blaster since I was about...
