[QUOTE="GSXR_Drew, post: 685170, member: 48046"] Hey all, I just picked up a 2000 YZ250 yesterday. Being that I am extremly new to the dirt side of the sport, I have a few questions. The bike did not come with a service manual, or owners manual for that fact.... 1. How much air should I run in the tires? I checked them today, and they were at like 10lbs. Is that normal? For street I would run 31 to 32 lbs on a tubeless tire, so 10lbs seemed really low to me. 2. After running the bike today, noticed a tiny bit of oil leaking from in between the exhaust and the cyclinder head. The exhaust is held on with springs so when I went in there to check things out, the exhaust moves a little bit. Is this something I should be worried about or is it a simple fix like a gasket and some stiffer springs. 3. How loose should the chain be? Street bikes would need about an inch of play, where should the chain be set on this bike? Any help would be appreciated!! [/QUOTE]
