The 1996 Suzuki RM250 forks are complete! I rebuilt them using Gold Valves and springs from @racetechsuspension. The Gold Valve kits allow you to dial in your suspension at home to give you a personalized feel based on your weight, riding style and skill level. They are available for almost any motorcycle. See what's available for your bike here: racetech.com/VehicleSearch

Marc,you did a great job. They look better than nerw. The. Oil looks toast! Enjoying this build!

@hafeexius Год назад

Nice! You forgot the stickers. They add an extra 10kw at the rear wheel 😅

I probably watch hundreds of thousands of videos on RU-vid and this is probably right up there with one of the best videos I've ever seen

@madmarc Год назад

wow. thanks troy! I struggle a little with suspension vids to make them interesting. They're usually not so popular.

@TroyCollier Год назад

@@madmarc Yeah now I have a new appreciation for my suspension guy. I sent it to him and shared it on my 75k person facebook group.

Good idea on heating up to get bubbles. I’m not sure the last layer you put on the legs. Not electroplated. You might want to put on some guards, a bit like Muc Off sell an adhesive sort, or just good old fashioned plastic ones from any store.

Thanks, I'm having them re anodized later.

nice job man, you really made it like new!!! i only brought mine back to working order. if you need original parts, or some addvice on how anything on the bike works, haynes has the original suzuki manual from this bike. i got my manual there and have to say i am glad i got it. there is every single part listed from the whole bike. also all tables and wireing diagrams and just anything needed for the bike. i hope i can rebuild mine also in near future. that would be great.

Thanks man, I have both the Clymer manual and the original Suzuki manual.

Nice ! I like the gold on those conventional RM forks but either way very nice.

@madmarc Год назад

Nice work, amazing how many moving parts they have inside of them. I'd of been so tempted to have those legs re-anodised again though

@madmarc Год назад

Thanks, I'm actually going to pull them back apart and do just that.

Another unbelievably piece of restoration....tell the truth, you really have a time machine and go back to 1996 and buy a brand new set of forks for the after photo don't you. Keep it up, bring these bikes back to life......@stanforadventure

You did those entire outer forks with wheels from pryme I assume? I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do with my rm forks. Got my cerakote swatch set today. I cerakoted my kx forks. They turned out OK for a first timer like myself. Not sure if I'm going to do the rm in cerakote though.

@madmarc 21 день назад

@@someoneyouknow96 I ended up anodizing them gold. Don't bother stripping off the anodizing yourself, just take them to a local anodizing place as is. The place I go to only charges $110 for a set of fork tubes

@someoneyouknow96 21 день назад

@@madmarc what? Ive never seen pricing like thst before. That's crazy. Id do that in a heartbeat.

@madmarc 21 день назад

@@someoneyouknow96 I think that's because suspension places outsource their anodizing. They just double or triple the price.

@someoneyouknow96 21 день назад

@@madmarc gotcha. Looks like I need to search around. I did contact a place on the other side of the state but they no longer do small stuff
