2008 Yamaha WR250R Totally Tricked Out

Good question. It doesn't have a kickstart. (However, you can imagine one and jump up and down while you hit the electric start button. :-)

my friends xt 225 battery went dead out on the road we just pop started it everytime we had to stop. for people that dont know what that is its when you push the bike as fast as you can or get a buddy to push you and you put the bike in gear and let the clutch out when your moving fast enough and the bike should start.

does it have a kickstart along with the electric

Actually, I had my mechanic do the mods... and he did take the valve out. However, I should have had him leave the valve in. (I didn't realize it was possible to leave it in... and after writing/reading some reviews on it on thumpertalk... I realized it could be left and should have left it.) Oh, well. :-)

Did you take the EXUP valve out w/ the FMF installation?

cool

Does the Zeta handgards past inspection? I'm from Pa.

They have passed inspection twice now in Massachusetts without any problem.

I just bought a leftover 08 last month and Im thinking of just doing the exhaust for now. Although Im debating the FMFQ4 over the Powercore because here in Massachusetts they can be pretty strict on sound. How is it with the powerbomb header? Is there a decent power increase? Cool bike non the less. Looks good.

I run a martial arts school in Connecticut, but I live in Mass. The bike is licensed in Mass and passed inspection this year with the Powercore on it... so I think you'll be fine. (You're right, by the way, Mass is ridiculous with restrictions.) Anyway, to answer your question... there is a significant power increase with the Powercore. It's noticeable as soon as you get on it.
