HEY TONY AND EVERYBODY ELSE! If you did not know, the movie that was never released about the 1975 500cc MX national championship, "One chance to win", is on YT right now.
That's a great looking bike. I think it would be a big hit if it came out today! Great video🔥🤘
My biggest memory of one of these is James getting worked in the 05 outdoors on one. Cool bike but by that time it was outclassed by the four strokes of the competition.
Your technical expertise is on point as always! Very interesting to hear all these details, year to year changes in engine etc. Most people dont realize how much research and work goes behind getting an additional 4 horsepowers.
I've made a video about you.
The cylinder tilted toward the rear. I noticed that on my 2019 YZ250 compared to my great 97KX and earlier bikes. From what I can see, I don't think they did it to make the exhaust tract longer only. Tilting the cylinder back also centralized mass a bit better with the cylinder being back, I would say about 7 degrees, but also because the radiators were able to be brought inboard of the frame down tube, and lower about 2". I don't know if they found much gain. They must have found benefit (Longer to get to a round pipe is logical.), because they could have made the pipe to reach the standard tract length, (but they were making a new cylinder casting anyway.). It was a pretty good jump for mass centralization.
i have an 04, i wish it was a 05 tho lol
If I remember correctly the 05 - 07 the kx 250 two stroke the cylinder was basically the yz250 cylinder, I believe Suzuki did this as well on their last few generations of their 250. I love my Kawis but I do agree I had a 2000 kx 250 and it was definitely slower than my brothers 01 Cr 250.
I have this 05 in my living room. I’m scared to let it go … 😭😭
Raced a 06’ KX250, great bike with the exception of harsh forks..
I dreamed to have a 05 or 06 KX250. I have a 98 very torquey and powerful. Would like to have one of these years with the rocket ship power band hit. Another awesome video Tony thank you
I get so happy when there's a new upload and then I get so depressed when it's over and I have to wait for another one
The 05-07 were my favourite years for the Kawis !
Know what I would LOVE to see more of? Enduro bikes, European/oddball bikes (especially Enduro editions and stories of hard fought, famous enduro races. I bought some of your merch, they are good quality shirts.
Never had a kx250, but I always smile when I see one. Great video!
This quickly became my favorite CZcams channel. My only complaint is that you don't upload enough
Always interested to see what bike or bike history is next!
Well done Tony!
Excellent video
Love your channel the way you use the old advertising.I know it’s a little bit out of your wheelhouse but I think it would be cool to see you cover the “Yamaha YSR” im on the east coast as well only saw a couple of these growing up think they are cool thx for your time great work
