I have a 1990 Rmx, and i love that bike. I ride bikes every day all year(kinda cold and snowy here in Norway). And the RMX is my winter bike. Stock the bike is ok, at best. But putting a PWK carb, Pro circuit exhaust and RM head gasket on it. The bike comes alive and is such a fun bike. i also changed the front forks to some Paiolis from a TM 125 mx, and the rear shock to a Gas Gas EC Ohlines sock. And now that bike comperes to any mid to late 2000 bikes. Love the RMX.
I had a 93 for a min and yes put a pwk airstriker with a fmf Q stealth out back and dam the 250 was sweet low mid and high. Sadly I had to send it packing as someone wanted more than me and paid me for it handsomely. 89 is definitely my favorite looking RMX hands down. I still want one and I just might get it.
We got all the rmx's in Australia. Up until 2001 or 2003. We had a few different shapes. It's very hard to see the models year by year as they are miss labeled in Google. If you do a video on the entire history and models that would be awesome. Cheers for the videos your knowledge is very impressive. although I love the colors and stickers of the mid 90s, haha I think it's a age thing as at that time I was in my teens. I think 96 is a hard year to beat as all models were great looking designs. But like you the rm was my favorite, I watched chad reed ride my local track on a rm125 as a junior.
I bought a brand new 97 rmx250 and absolutely loved it,years later I bought an 89 and I still have that bike and I love it just wish the 89 didn't have the inverted forks
Nice history on the RMX250, I just sold a nice 1991. One thing about the 1991's (maybe other years?) is that Suzuki gave you a hop up kit with the RMX250 purchase to convert it to a beast. You received a RM250 pipe and silencer, carb top, one ring piston, RM head gasket and something for the power valve. I don't remember but I have the old magazine that list all the parts. I think the bike would sell now too, along with a RM250 that should have never been cut. Thank you
@@TheMotocrossVault Awesome, Yes mine had it and it hauled ass! I bought a magazine test on the 1991 I had and that is where I learned of it. Thanks for the reply, I have my 1991 RM on a video if you want to see a clean example.
Yeah I meant the KDX as a model and did not realize that I has said the 200 specifically until I went back to edit it. At that point I did not feel like reshooting the whole intro for that little mess up.
AWESOME REVIEW MAN, THANKS FOR THAT, I HAVE A 1998 STREET LEGAL RMX 250 SUPERMOTO IN BRAZIL AND THEY CAME WHITH 51Hp TO US DUE A FLEXIBLE LEGISLATION IN THAT TIME AND UNFORTUNATELY SINCE YEAR 2000 ALL 2 STROKE WAS BANNED IN COUNTRY, ONLY FOR OFF ROAD USE! 4 YEARS OWNING, SO I CAN SAY: THIS BIKE IS A TRACTOR, WONDERFULL, REALIBLE, VERY LIGHT LITERALLY THEY DONT GET AGED! I CALLED HER CHEETARA FROM THUNDERCATS ANIME
I own a 97 ‘. I have the Thinner Rm head gasket ‘ Wiseco 2 ring piston’ Fmf pipe and 304 Silencer Vforce reeds PwK As carb ‘ Uni filter and Non oring chain . I need to look into that Powervalve cover mod . This bike absolutely Rips now compared to how it was stock . Then again i have a 95 WR 250 that loves 100 Octane fuel and will eat this RMX . The Wr use to be so hard to Jet till i heard the Squish band loves 100 octane!

FRIGGIN TRICK AS HELL U DEF SHOULD STICK WITH THAT FOR SURE!!! GREAT JOB!!!!! (SORR BOUT CAPS I JUST WANTED TO EMPHASIZE MY ENTHUSIASM ON MY FEELINGS!!!!)
Hey Tony awesome video. I really liked this one and the odyssey and dirtwheels magazine videos. Please do a video for Kawasaki Tecate 3 & 4 and definetly one for the TRX250R 2-Strokes 4 Life !!
Damn dude that is a bit harsh I think. I like to set the stage in my videos and I think that is what sets my stuff apart. I do not just spout information. I try to add context and my own recollections and feelings if I have them. I keep those to the intro and exit though for the most part so the main review is more straight forward info from the tests if the time. It is actually 4:45 where the main "review" starts. I included both a timestamp in the description and a chapter break in the video so you can skip right to the main review portion if that is your jam.
@@TheMotocrossVault Didn't mean to piss on your cornflakes.......I might be the one that needed the coffee, having read my comment again. Keep up the good work.
