I had an 06 rm250 and damn I loved that thing! I sold it last fall and bought a 08 rmz450 about a week ago. I sold it because at the time I thought it was impractical and a 4-stroke would be a better option but I wish I'd have kept it. The smooth power and torque of my new bike is nice but that 250 was unbeatable in terms of fun! Never know what you got til it's gone I guess.
I got my first dirtbike a week ago, a 2000 rm250 infact. It's shitloads of fun haha, most of my friends who have kawies/yamahas always tell me the same that the engines in suzukis are something special
Nice rip, I had a 1996 RM250 bought it new. She got stolen from my buddies place, got a phone call 5 years later from the Police in Quebec, they had recovered it and asked me to come and get it. After 14 hour drive, we were back together again. She was in pretty bad shape so I decided to sell her. That bike could always scare the hell out of me! lol.
My 98 had that low end stutter like this one, I dropped the pilot jet 2 sizes from stock and it seemed alot better. Much easier to ride at low rpm and the power band transition was more predictable. My 2 cents.
Great video! -i have rmx 250 & goes hard, procircuit exhaust, anyways, please be careful riding alone, god forbid a big get off, take a phone or emergency locator- had friend crash alone- broke his leg and lost his life due to heat and no one new his location. -ride on!
I want a 125. The 250 2t is too much like my 450 in terms of power. Wanna slow it down so i can work on my riding but still have good power. That rm seems fast as heck.
mate can you give me some info on the gopro mounting and positioning used on this video? is it a gopro or a contour. looks to be just side mounted on your helmet but side mounting doesnt usually look that good. usually too much helmet is in the shot.
holy shit dude ! the ground was soo sloppy and your bike still wants to wheelie nice riding m8 i would of struggle going that fast but that s me hahahahaha
No worries Ryan. If you have ridden bikes you will adapt. If it is your first bike take it gentle, you will fall down but get back up and ride it again. A bit of fear is good, it keeps you sensible. It is when you lose your fear you do stupid things. The Pro's have a bit of fear but they use it to their advantage and they have learned to conquer it. I have an RM 250 dialed in squeaky clean on the throttle. I have cut the sub-frame, added a drop link and shaved the seat to fit me. The suspension has been dialed. I've ridden Honda's, Yamaha's and now a Suzuki over the years. I had the old torque monster of the Yammy class, the YZ 490. It was probably the hardest to get used to because unlike the 125 and 250, it would keep spooling after you took your hand off the throttle. It took a second or so to start to slow down, I'm guessing the rotating mass was the cause. It cost me a bunch of rear fenders and a few sore tailbones. Still, I love the 2 smokes. I think the 250 2-stroke is one of the best all around bikes to ride. The 4 strokes are different and the tech has changed them drastically in the last few years. They have huge power and torque. They have greater top end, but the 2 strokers just seem more nimble and they rev instantly. It is personal preference and my opinion. If I was to purchase a new bike, I would be looking at the KTM for my style of riding in a two stroke. you will do awesome on your new 250!!! Cheers!!! Happy Trails!!!
If you've ridden bikes before, there is no reason to be scared. I went from a 08 klx140 to a 2002 rm250 and it took a little bit to get use to but no big deal. More power is a hell of a lot more fun than no power. All it takes is practice.
fabrizio bonfanti They're pretty intense so be sure you want to rip all the time. I'm selling mine and grabbing an old 4 stroke to putt around on cause my back can't handle it much anymore.
well i wouldnt because i have one just like it and mine is a lot fatser and louder and mine has so much torque that it sounds like a four stroke but it not
It's so weird. My 525sx 4 stroke is ligher then this 2 stroke. I just looked up the facts. 2004 525sx - 114,5kg wet. 2000 Suzuki rm250 - 116,4kg. What the actual fuck Suzuki..
Can't beat that 2 stroke sound!
After 9 years, this is still the best rm 250 ride on RUclips
I always come back to this video, it's good therapy

Now that's how you ride a 2 stroke, good video mate

Nice to see someone who knows how to properly use the clutch on a 2 stroke! That's how you keep your top end crisp!
nice places and good riding
The RM 250 rips - I have one too and love it - great vid.
this is why I ride a 2000 RM 250 best bike I've had over years of riding!!
Damn dude that's a wicked bike for a 250. I've got a 85 cr500 as a project and I can't wait to get it running.
you hit the ruts a puddles fast as shit

AWSOME VIDEO AND RIDE , THE SUZUKI RM IS A BEAST
Wow I’d love to live that close o trails. Hoping to get an 01 RM250 next week, you seem to haul ass on yours.

Nice riding, your fatbar is awesome!

Great riding buddy you got balls
I want a 125. The 250 2t is too much like my 450 in terms of power. Wanna slow it down so i can work on my riding but still have good power. That rm seems fast as heck.
I have an 03 and love it and will never sell it

holy shit dude ! the ground was soo sloppy and your bike still wants to wheelie nice riding m8 i would of struggle going that fast but that s me hahahahaha

Get a steering stabilizer sometime. They're not exactly cheap but they will keep you from slapping the tank through mud puddles n such like this

I'm thinking about buying a 1998 rm 250. Can anyone give me some advice on what to look for and pros/cons etc.?
sir I have a 98 rm 250. that is built for race. I love it corners like a dream and wheelies up like a boss. no doubt its a good bike
that rides like my 99 yz250 nice and torki... does it have a torque booster on it
torque booster?
Those are sick bars
hey what kind of pipe do u have?
you have got balls of steel :D
I can smell the premix from here
Flat out Ewok spooking trail blast! Damn.
I love my rm250 too. 03
Yeah, I kinda would actually.
Is it easy to wheelie on that 250?
its not the easiest bike to wheelie but the extra power will help start a wheelie or finish it ass first..!
I only weigh 120 can't get mine up at all lol
I think its hard not to wheelie on my 01 lol. When I pop into 2nd it just happens haha
I've managed to go through all gears once but after 3rd it's hard to lift. More teeth in the sprockets would fix it. Mine tops out around 124km/h.
BlairRM250 something must’ve been pretty wrong lol mine can’t keep the front wheel down 😂
Sweet handlebars! Lol
very nice were is this place at .
Québec, Canada

fabrizio bonfanti
They're pretty intense so be sure you want to rip all the time. I'm selling mine and grabbing an old 4 stroke to putt around on cause my back can't handle it much anymore.
+/pol/ is always right wow man, i didn't think it was so hard to handle it.. i mean i'm 17 and i know it's hard, but i thought i can handle a 250
