What’s everyone’s preference on camera angles.. helmet forward, bike mounted forward, bike mounted rear.. I personally like bike mounted as it shows lean angles and kind of like the rear facing also; well the past makes your future..right? I always like helmet cams for most clips. Easier to view whatever happens that the rider sees. I do like the mount from the last vid. Play around with the cams if you enjoy it. Makes it interesting to see different views. I used to do that, but I started going with helmet cam full time and then a rear cam in addition because the combination of those can capture most of what's happening. The best dependable practical setup for me. Some people like to put a camera on the tank to show themselves while riding, but to me that's purely useful as an add-on aside from maybe if you're doing stunts or talking to the camera or really being aggressive in turns and jumping around on the bike a lot. |

Those cylinders are 1st over(.25mm).I got the set from ebay in decent shape..The original were standard bore,but one was badly rusted,,I cut the cylinder bases as the transfer timing was stupid high and squish was huge,after cutting transfer and squish looked waay better..  |

I like bike mounted and forward because it's nice to see where we're going and what's ahead. We have more of a sense of what it's like to be on the bike instead of your helmet. |

I’ve got video of the same run helmet forward just the audio of the lovely 2T sounds aren’t as crisp. That’s what I was after with the last one. I’ll play around and see what works best.

A view of the tach/speedo would be cool too if you can manage it.

Swapping the 350 jugs was a popular thing back in the day ( or I read that it was in a book!).
If you’re looking to add power and a 6th gear, a water cooled banshee motor should bolt in. I think the cases are the same.

I think the cases are the same. This has the 6th gear, the engines are essentially the same and if I ever find one for a decent price I may consider it but I’m in the Philadelphia market area and everything powersport wise is extremely over priced. The mopeds that used to be $1-200 are now no less then $1000...Probably cheaper to piece it together on eBay. |

That road is literally 2 miles from my house and I frequent it often. I might have some of the MT on it. It’s a fun road for sure. There is a quarry on that road so it’s better on the weekend with truck traffic.

It’s not at the level as my MT is but is superior compared to my Zuma. Brakes are pretty decent but do heat up, they are EBay cheap replacements so that could be an issue. It takes the corners well but due to the light weight of the bike it’s subject to cross wind. As long as you can throttle some weight to the rear wheel in the corners it does really well considering it’s under 300 pounds.

I really thought it would be a decent bit heavier for some reason. |

1994 EX250 is 304 lbs and it’s got less engine parts, panels and cooling system now. It’s a light little guy.
