Shouldn't this receptacle have a ground?

One of my outlets in the garage has never worked finally got around to fixing it. Theres no power making it to it so I went inside to check the receptacles in there (dining room and garage on same circuit...) and popped this out and see this. Hot jumper to power the light switch and one hot wire powering the outlet.

Not a single ground wire that I can see in there. And every other outlet and lights work in the garage its just the outlet nearest the dining room that doesnt get any power

Is this right? I dont know what those little orange things are that have wires going in there

Doesn't seem safe right?

My A/T tires have about 20-25k miles left on them. Got a sidewall puncture on my Tacoma rear passenger side - can I replace just the one?

I really dont have the money right now to buy a whole new set and theres a ton of life left on these things. Wondering if im fine just replacing the bad one that the tire shop says cant be patched?

Im new to 2 strokes - is the engine supposed to feel kinda shaky/rough (these arent really the right words) at 1/4 throttle or less? New Yz250

I was running up and down the street breaking the engine in and idk what word to describe it but the engine felt kinda shaky/gurgley/lil rough when I was running at like 1/4 throttle.

When i opened it up a little more it felt more like what im used to on motorcycles. Is it just because 2 stroke engines like to be ripped and small amounts of throttle just dont feel right? Wanna make sure this brand new bike is good before I start putting some real hours on it

Other than a 10 minute ride on the trail way back in highschool on my buddies yz125, this was literally the first time I ever rode a 2 stroke. Always had a 4t 250 or 450

And as a side note I wanna thank this community for helping me out with my struggles and questions so far while I get this bike dialed in! Nothing beats that smoker smell and sound im in love already

Already know I gotta grease the rear axle and linkage, as well as oil the filter better. Anything else you like to do before hitting the dirt?

Any recommendations for general dirt bike tools would be appreciated too!

My first 2 stroke ever im pretty stoked
