    My 2005 RM250 is the funnest bike i have ever ridden, although i ride more modern bikes i will never sell the old 2 stroke.

    • @jonnoMoto
      @jonnoMoto Před 7 lety +8

      Yup. I've ridden a few others (2t & 4t). The RM250 is like a big MTB with it being so nimble.

    Noto a Suzuki fan but I absolutely love that you guys do these projects and videos. It really shows that putting a couple thousand into a bike can get you 97% of what a new 250f gets you while saving thousands.

  • @mikebrown41182
    @mikebrown41182 Před 7 lety +22

    I love it but tbh i would love to see some non stock motor , a fully tuned rm 250 is ear orgasm. Carmichaels factory rm 250 for example.

    • @mxracer5407
      @mxracer5407 Před 7 lety

      since they sent the cylinder to millennium technologies I bet the bike is fully modded. They do porting and decking as well as cylinder repair so I highly doubt that they would send a cylinder back to racer x without doing all the tuning on it. They have done a million two stroke cylinders so they know what works for each bike, I bet thats why he said this bike has better roll on power than he remembered. I had my 06 kx250 done by them when eric gorr worked there and it was the best two stroke motor ive ever had.

    • @mikebrown41182
      @mikebrown41182 Před 7 lety +3

      mx racer But did you hear when he said they went back to the standard tolerance? Still a good bike for sure, but i dont think it sounds nowhere near to what Carmichaels 250 did.

    • @mxracer5407
      @mxracer5407 Před 7 lety +4

      blomgren182 yeah I'm sure the factory had all kinds of little tricks to make those bikes rip. Carmichael also rode that shit wide open so that's a little different than ping riding one in his forties lol

    I see a lot of these RM builds with the RMZ front fender and number plate and im thinking about doing it to mine. what do i need to do to it to them fit?

    • @chrisbray4886
      @chrisbray4886 Před 6 lety

      You prob figured it out by now since your question was 6 months ago but I’ll answer anyway. Two of the bolts from the newer fender line up perfectly so all you need to do is drill the other two and the number plate bolts up without any mods. Hope that helped.

  • @quebecbroil

    @toddgrant6103 Před 5 lety

    I had a 2006 RM 250 and loved it! The clutch was its weak link, but compared to the 2003 CR 250 I owned before it, the RM was a rocket. Anyone who had the oppertunity of riding the said Honda would agree that it was possibly the worst powerband ever produced by a 2stroke. Wish I hadn't sold it!

    Hey folks, save your money from buying race fuel. Aviation Fuel 100 LL is every bit as good as VP and other race fuels, and better quality control. The 100 LL Aviation fuel is good to about almost 16:1 compression ratio (250 2 stroke). On the dyno, the Aviation 100 LL makes every bit as much power as VP Race Fuels and its Specific Gravity is almost identical to VP C14. Obviously you need to jet for the fuel, but thats basic stuff anyways.
