hey, i resently got a yz 125 in the front tire it is missing 2 spokes by the air nossel. How much would that cost to get done. Ive herd that it is risky doin it urself.

I'll do it for 100$ per spoke, should take me about 15min. Just kidding, it's easy to do but you do have to remove the tire[which is probably the hardest part of the job]

If your dealer tries to tell you YZ spokes only come in full sets check the part numbers and KX spokes (which sell indivually) sometimes fit

That helped me out and I wasn't even looking for help! Phil is misssing two spokes and our dealer tried to sell us the whole deal...

You might be able to get the spokes in without unlacing the whole wheel, I had a older YZ125 with a missing spoke and due to the way the spoke had to go in I had to remove several other spokes. The nipples were siezed and I ended up re-lacing the wheel which is not bad, you just have to pay attention as to what spoke goes where and then true it up.

good luck
