Yamaha completely changed their YZ250F for 2021 and in this episode Keefer dissects the changes made as well as how those changes are perceived on the track.
Tomorrow night in Tampa, Florida, will mark the start of the Eastern Regional 250 Supercross Championship and while much of the hype surrounds defending champion Chase Sexton of the GEICO Honda team and his rivals like RJ Hampshire, Shane McElrath, Jordon Smith and more, one rider who is rather quietly making a return to competition is Josh Hill. The 30-year-old from the Yoncalla, Oregon, will contest the entire series aboard a Yamaha YZ250F with support from the Club MX Race Team, after several years away from full-time racing. Hill, who is best remembered as a factory Yamaha racer, has spent the past few years earning a living as a freerider and social influencer, but when the opportunity to line up again presented itself, he got in shape, trained at Club MX, and is coming into this series, "fit and ready to race for wins." For this edition of the Fox Feature, we phoned Hill up for an insightful and entertaining podcast. Be sure to keep your eyes out for the number-175 Yamaha YZ250F on Saturday night!

Presented by Fly Racing Instagram @justincooper_32 Monster Energy/Star Racing/Yamaha's Justin Cooper had a big night this weekend as he earned his first-ever 250 Supercross win at the Angels Stadium of Anaheim Monster Energy Supercross Series kickoff. Known for his cool-as-ice demeanor, it was cool to see how emotional Cooper got after scoring the big win aboard his Yamaha YZ250F. We got the New Yorker to come onto the Swapmoto Podcast this evening, while his emotions were still high over last night's victory.
Presented by Ogio Powersports With the Motocross of Nations less than one week away, we phoned up Monster Energy/Star Racing/Yamaha's Justin Cooper for this installment of the How Was Your Weekend Podcast. Cooper is representing team USA on his Yamaha YZ250F in the MX2 class, and he has been in Belgium training in the sandy conditions since Monday. We were pleasantly surprised to hear how well he is adapting to the softy conditions in preparation for next weekend's showdown, and he had plenty to say about the European riders that he's been training with all week. Enjoy!
Just because the Yamaha YZ250F didn't change in 2020 doesn't mean we don't have a lot to say about it. Listen as we go over the ins and outs of the YZ250F and how you can make it better for you and your riding style!
John Slater from SRP, maker of Slater Skins and Slater Shields joined me tonight for a talk about branding opportunities. He's been doing this a long time and has had some great history of getting outside sponsors to step up and brand up motocross and freestyle mx riders machines with his products that add much needed volume to the available space of these motocross bikes. If you haven't seen what I'm talking about, see the links below for images. These things are impressive. I might have to buy a Yamaha! ;-) Most recent example I saw was this 2019 Yamaha YZ-F labelled up with Hog Technologies, Dinoliners.com, EBR Performance and Tucker Powersports logos. Check out the Slater Skins on a Yamaha YZ250F here: https://www.facebook.com/799423086793758/photos/a.799667560102644/2155555291180524/?type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/799423086793758/photos/a.799667560102644/2155555261180527/?type=3&theater Check out the Slater Shield on a Yamaha YZ250F here: https://www.facebook.com/799423086793758/photos/a.799667560102644/2155555361180517/?type=3&theater I'd encourage any shop with racers sponsored, to consider the front Slater Shield for any off-road race bike and the full Slater Skins & Shield for bikes with fitment available (2014-current YZ250F & 450F at time of this publication, 2019). John says he is working on more bike brand fitments as we speak. Maybe you can think of ways to use it promotionally and get your logos MUCH MORE visible in your area and differentiate yourself from all your competitors. Remember, this is the sort of products that Motocross Action Magazine printed back in the 1990's that would be the way our sport would continue to land and retain big outside sponsors. Serious businesses expect big branding ROI. Maybe it's time to take their advice.
