Faq About Aftermarket Motorcycle Wheels
Robert asks…
Should I buy this motorcycle?
It will be my first.1999 YAMAHA YZF-R6 (red/white) for $2500 with 12000 miles. The bike has 2002 L.E.D. Tailights and paint graphics. It also comes equipped with aftermarket sprocets, 1 down in front and three in the rear. The R-6 also has a custom rear fender eliminator blinker kit already professionally installed, a Yahmaha tech carbon fiber front and rear side blinkers. Brand new H.I.D.Head Lights. Newly polished wheels and jet kit installed. New plugs. And a Da Vinnci exhaust flush mounted. I don't know what everything means and I need it to last me about 6 years.

William asks…
are speedometers wheel size specific?
i want to add an aftermarket speedometer but i don't know if a motorcycle cable driven speedo will work due to the different sized wheels. the scooter already has a speedo cable on it so can i stick one on that's meant for a motorcycle or do i have to go with a digital one that uses a wheel magnet and a wheel size selection?
same cable that was stock with the tire but want a different speedo.
Motorcycle Store Staff answers:
Bigger wheels or tires will show you going SLOWER than you really are. (fewer revolutions to cover the same distance) You have to have a matched wheel/tire size matched drive gear and matched speedometer.
Sandy asks…
2006 CRF 250 or 2007 CRF 450?
2006 CRF 250 all stock, never raced, from a dealer - $3200 + tax = $3650

Or
2007 CRF 450 - 1st owner raced for 1 year, Then engine was redone and 2nd owner used it recreationaly, I would be 3rd owner, alot of aftermarket parts (Tag Metals Triple Clamp Bars, Hammerhead clutch break levers and shifters, 2 different seats, 2nd set of wheels, jersey, pants, 2 new filters in box, Rad Hose, Boysen Factory Racing engine cover, Tag Metals front and back sprokets....Private $4000 + tax = $4500...an older gentleman (52) owns it now and I would think he didnt even ride it hard but I will definetly check it out anyway.....

Any input on what a better deal is now and long term.
I would be using it on trails and race track...I want some kick and have power if I need it (road friends 250 2 stroke and love it so I think I should go for the 450 4 stroke)
Thanks

Get the 250...if you get the 450 thats been raced and prolly has 283582354 hours on it you dont know what could go bad with it...and the person who rebuilt the motor might not have exactly known what they were doing....trust me on this one...glad to see you're gonna choose a honda though
