2001 Yamaha YFS200 Blaster review from Canada
"Higher costs to maintain, but it's totally worth the rush of 6th gear"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
I had it for two whole days of riding and a bearing on the crank assembly seized. That resulted in about $600 in parts for the engine and $200 in pay for the man who brought life back to the BLASTER.
The sound of that single cylinder quad was a very good sound.
The back tires were replaced with nice mud-lites. The traction is unbelievable.
Back brake pads were replaced and the front shoes were adjusted, but the braking still isn't as great as other quads I've driven.
General comments?
Very quick for a quad because of its 6 speed transmission. Good wheelie power.
Not too heavy, but not too light. I wouldn't want to jump it too high.
Great sport quad for the money.
