    I have a 1996 RM 250 that I bought in 96 and I’m 43 now lol. I won a shit load of races on it back in the day.
    . I had a lot of other bikes since then and all 2Strokes. But out of all of my bikes my 96 Rm250 is still my favorite. Make no mistake though I have spent a ton of money on it and it is a Screaming Beast. It gives my 1998 Cr500 a run for it’s money.

    really nice, i have a 1997 rm250 🙂 she looks allost the same. i love this bike. i would love to have got it also rebuilt but i cant afford a full rebuild. for now i ride her on the track. she is allmost as bad of a condition as yours, but she runs and i just got her a new piston at least. the forks are the only thing i could rebuild a little bit, at least to a point were they work normaly. cant wait to see thee final bike 🙂

    • @madmarc
      @madmarc  Před rokem

      Thanks man! The big bolts are easy because they can only go in one place. And the smaller ones, I can usually tell by looking at them. Or you can check part numbers and sort them by size before you reinstall them.

    A good base for rebuilding. I see that the bike has not been serviced, but there are no modifications (like transplanting parts from another motorcycle model or welding parts) 😁

      Yes this is how I feel too. I was expecting a lot more surprises but it seems like a solid base.

    Your skills are awesome.....both your mechanical skills and your video skills. Do you keep track of the hours spent on these builds?

    • @madmarc
      @madmarc  Před rokem +3

      Thank you Matthew! It's hard to keep track of the hours. People always ask but there's no easy way to calculate it, plus filming takes at least as much time as the work itself depending on what I'm doing. Like in this video, you have to move the camera and adjust the zoom and focus for every bolt, or change the height of the tripod, or even move the bike for better lighting... I think there's like 13 hours of footage in this 9 minute video. Without the filming I could have probably tore it down in 5 or 6 hours. Maybe less.
