Aww that's a nasty break. Hope it all heals back to normal for her. Salute

I have got to ask two things though...

How are the tendons and everything inside her arm?
How did she go down? It looks like just a small rip in the yard, good place to have a bad crash. I'm glad it wasn't In the trails

yea, I'm glad it wasnt on trails too, being stuck down in some deep valley would have been f*cking awful. She wouldnt have been ready for that anyways. She was just riding around my buddies farm in the front/side yard of his house

We THINK that the tendons and parts inside her arm are ok, and expect a full recovery eventually, but we'll know more once the stitches come out and she starts physical therapy.

She had never ridden a full size 2-stroke bike before, and was on my KTM 200 2 stroke woods bike, and turned the bars to turn around the front of a barn, and her hand pulled on the throttle which immediately ripped into power band (1st gear), and slammed promptly into the barn. It was every YouTube video you ever saw with someone getting whiskey throttle on a bike for the first time. It sucked to watch. I'm thankful it wasnt worse Frown I should have never let her ride it. She's like 5'4" and 120lbs, and a total beginner on a motorcycyle (she rides quads and drives a stick shift, but has little to no experience with a twist throttle), so she had no business being on my bike. I shouldnt have let her ride it, but shes so damn good at everything else she does thats semi related lol


Ahh that happens to a lot of people first time dirtbiking especially on two strokes.. Don't beat yourself up, she seems like she would be able to ride the moto but sometimes shit happens



Nice work converting the yari, keep us posted how it works.

Right I'm really stoked on this Yari. Going to keep it short as I can but I could write several pages on it and I haven't even ridden the damn thing yet.

My main worry was the big negative chamber making them too soft. Lowering them with spacers must have cut off the check valve for it which is handy. I only need 75psi to make them super firm. I weigh 75kgs and I get about 1mm of sag. Would be perfect for a heavier rider as you don't need as much pressure. Still nice and smooth though.
I did need a few more clicks of rebound damping to stop it topping out but it was pretty minor. Maybe I'll try tinkering with a better top out bumper or heavier oil for the rebound.

I also can share spares between this and the Yari on my enduro which is neat! I've also ordered an axle sleeve to fit my 20mm wheel so should be able to ride it in a week.



@ZenkiS14 that break is scary. I did my collarbone and shoulder blade in a month ago and it's nothing compared to that. That is f*cking gnar, really hope she's ok!

How do you end up getting off the bike with those pedals when you've finished riding?
