200 2 stroke dirt bike rieju mr 200 racing gasgas 
Авто/Мото
It is a pleasure to listen to this pilot, it has been very well documented about this product, it is a very easy engine to maintain, greetings from Spain.
great little bike!
The Rieju lineup is excellent. I have a 300 pro. It’s such a great bike!!!
Rieju needs to advertise more!! the bike is awesome!! I own the MR 300
right on! how to you like it?
@@dirtniron Absolutely love it!! Super fast, and I always win the drag races against all of the 300's
I never understood why KTM chose to drop the 200 and instead offer the 125 and 150 as neither of those models come close to a 200, a friend had the last year of the KTM 200 and it was so much fun to ride, it required a bit more focus on clutch control and gear selection but once you adjusted your riding style it was pure joy, and your exactly right as it didn't wear you out as quickly, the KDX 200 was also a great bike.
I had a 150 and I had a 200 prior to that. surprisingly the 150 was faster but the 200 was just much easier to ride. I would take the 200 every single time over the 150 Unless I was racing motocross
Right they should have added 3 start and EFI to the 200 and skipped the 150
@@tittan1500 200 got Estart.
@@Dashriprock4 KTM ?
@@tittan1500 yes. The last couple years it had Estart. At least here in the states it did
As the proud owner of a 2015 KTM 200, I am happy that 200's are continued to be made because they are extremely fun, especially when you get on the pipe, as Rado pointed out. Absolute woods weapons!
Great video, thanks mate!
The KDX 200 was the best enduro bike ever built, always amazed me that nobody wanted to built 200's anymore.
Great review!
I used to race my girlfriend's KTM200 in GPs and no one could tell it was a 200 - They just thought I was expert holding it wide open the whole time! It was fast!! Don't underestimate the 200s. I'm sure that thing rips. I kinda want one again. ✌️
its so much fun!
Lol 😂
just wanted to say hi from sweden.. i ride and compete the swedish enduro championship on the rieju 300 and i just love the bike.. i spend half the budget on this one comparing to my old bike wich was a crf450 with all the necesary parts on in... But on the Rieju i just swapped the handlebar, fotpegs, and rebuild the suspension for a cpl of hundred bucks and im now just as fast, and even faster in some sections as on my raceprepped crf450. im not even comparing to a KTM since that one will break my bank if i want it as good as the Rieju comes stock.. and it handles like a dream!!! steelframe and ahhh i just love to ride it.
The KDX 200 was very popular for many years....with good reason, so makes sense to offer a 200 🤷🏻♂️
yes, and KTM 200 was pretty good as well
Awesome video, I have the 300cc but also love small bore bikes like these!
I want that bike!200 cc is just about right for my 63 yr old 170 LB butt.Thanks for the test buddy.
yea, that would be a great bike for you Bruce!
I like every thing about my 2022 MR300 Racing and I equally like your reviews and commentary on this channel! I am in my 50s, barely have time to ride, but this bike makes me feel like a better rider than I am! The 200 probably would have been sufficient for the riding I do - lighter feeling and less tiring it sounds like. Might have to consider that next time! 😊
Glad you like them! thanks
You looked very comfortable on it, you were flicking it around pretty good 👍 Being my size(250lbs) I could probably use a 2stroke 300 but I prefer a 250. 250's keep me working just enough not to get lazy.
yea, 250 is a good size for all kind of riding.
Great video brother.
I’ll buy a 300 ranger coming up week. Sounds nice 👍🏻
Beautiful bike! I hope more dealers pop up especially in Canada.
Was hoping for the same but after talking to somebody who inquired about importing them into Canada they would cost more than current KTM‘s to break even
Very awsome bike. We need more 200cc bikes from different manufacturers. It sounds dam good and that suspension looks plush
Yes we do
Great test looking forward to the 300
thanks Ron, appreciate it!
Hi yep very good prononciation. And gracias for the test.
I Dig It!!! Looks Rider Friendly"
yea, it is!
Good video buddy 👍💯❤️❤️
Thanks 👍
A friend runs a smart carb on one, and its awesome !
cool, better bottom?
Ktm used to make a 200 exc Shame they don't no more
yea, good engine size for sure!
I currently ride a ktm 200xcw and have owned other ktm 200s in the past and I think it’s the perfect size and motor combo you can get I love it don’t get me wrong I want to get a 300 but the 200 isn’t going anyplace as long as I’m still able to ride
I am still riding a fully rebuilt 2012 200XCW and love the engine for the type of riding I do. I am very curious about these Rieju's but would hate to take the weight of electric start and linkage...
I subbed for the 300!!!
cool, welcome on board! 300 video coming soon
@@dirtniron Sweet!
Ahoj Rado.Ja som kedysi jazdil KTM 200 EXC 03 a bola to parádna motorka.Podľa mojich info bol motor prevŕtaná 125-ka.Ale túžil som po Gas Gas-e rok 05-06 ešte žltá a tam bol základ motor 250-ka s 200-kovým valcom.Dodnes ju márne hľadám v inzercii.🙂
One thing I love about this channel is Rado is open to riding anything and not just what the masses ride. And yes I have a boutique bike and a bike for the masses..
Glad you enjoy it Jeff, I love all the bikes ;)
KTM was not selling a lot of 200's because everyone wanted a 250 or a 300...that's why they went down to the 150.
That RIeju looks really nice and sounds incredible. Can you tell me what brakes are on it? Not a huge fan with the starter hanging off the side, but it would be easier to change. Great vid, did you say that track is in your back yard? Nice track. Love the accent to, everything was great with the video and can't wait to see the 300 vid.
thanks for the info bro, appreciate your sharing. 300 video was just posted yesterday, check it out! what accent?? 😜
im 40 and ride a gasgas ec200 the power is so good, usable, and fun on the 200 i don't even know if i want to go to a bigger bike.
sounds good man, I am 40 too and bike feels awesome ;)
yo rado, i really dig the color of your boots, those tech 7 looks amazing. anyway, about the bike, in EU the reiju is a popular alternative to the ktm, cheaper but not shabby. with less than10k you get the "racing" version wich is absoluely mindblowing.
yea, love Tech7 boots! Bike is decent competition to the rest EU brands
1 just bought the MR200, so light and so fast! The lighter bike was so much easier to handle in difficult situations.
Great to hear!
Very nice what bhp does the 200 have
I personally
favor big bore 2 strokes, but as a heavier guy ,I still like much smaller 2 & 4 stroke dirtbikes .Smaller bikes are less intimidating,, require less effort to handle, are plenty fast enough , cost less , just as exciting , an easier on fuel ⛽️ & lastly , loading & unloading is easier as well ! I will purchase a 200cc off road 2 stroke for sure 👌 this specific Rieju 200 cc is a great choice & Seams totally competitive to any other serious 200cc off rd. competition bike ! I like the smaller dirt bike companies , they deserve good sales ! With Rueju, and a few other dirtbike smaller brands, you can take your self & girl & kids ,and have awsome times trail riding, as much as the most expensive brands & for hundreds of dollars more left in your pocket 😄 !!!
any body know if the engine components are interchangeable with the older gasgas bikes because i have an 2010 200,
200 two stroke nice
yea, good stuff!
Dang Rado, you've become quite the rider! I just got into the 2t world with a te300i. Having fun trying to work on the slower more enduro/single track stuff. Good stuff.
thanks bro, have fun on your 2t!
how would you compare this to the yz 125x. can get this road legal in Australia only reason looking at this over yz 125x
Could you comment on what your out the door cost was? Also, what was the suspension like stock (before you had it worked on by Technical Touch)? What type of parts support would a person have if they purchased one? Would it be similar to the way TM parts work or different? Thanks for the video. I appreciate your perspective on bikes and have missed this type of video from you. It was these types of videos that drew me to watch and subscribe to your channel in the first place.
Technocal touch is standard on rieju
The bike as u see it in the video is what u get out of the crate.. the technical touch is KYB standard on these bikes... just throw yar springs on it and get it shimsed to yar liking and off u go.
hi Conrad, I am not sure about the OTD price as I got this bike for review, I did not buy it. The bike is 100% stock, comes that way from the showroom floor. Glad you like the reviews brother, 300cc review coming soon ;)
The Reiju mr200 is based off of the mr300 so the size differenve is very minimal. The Beta 200 rr and rr race edition are based off of the 125 chasis so it is a bit lighter and smaller than their 250 & 300cc bikes.
Yeah 200cc on a bottom end suited for 300cc.. sounds like it would last longer
Rado - I hadn't seen anyone ride one of these bikes; I'd just read about them. Looks to me like it would be prefect for an old geezer like me......looks light, handles, has good bottom end.......very much like a super good KDX 200. Think I'll take my Social Security check down and get one......now where'd I put my glasses and false teeth?
hahaha, you cracking me up Tom!!
The Rieju ranger 200 or 300 might be the best option for you.
@@sarahdell4042 I'd sure love to try both of them.
I live in Spain and have never seen one of the 200’s. And my local Rieju dealer says they don’t exist.
I'm looking to upgrade from a 2017 ktm xc 250. It is a little too much for my old short legs. Trying to decide between a Rieju or a 350 or 390 Beta. I am older with 32 inch inseam riding East coast Appalachia. Thanks for your videos.
look up Rieju 200 Ranger, they have lower seat height and detuned engine, but the bottom is better than on MR model.. sounds like something you can use on the trails
thank you for replying
Funny thing, it's a European brand but in Europe we don't have the 200cc model!! Lool only in the Ranger version....
About the lower end, you can do some little things to improve: better jetting, increase volume in the power valve cover. And for last the cylinder head, but more expensive.
Not really, there is a configurator which let you literally build the bike, so you can choose the 200cc engine with all the "pro" versione goodies
@@Mattflea on the USA website we can see the 200cc model available but on the European website we don't see available.
But it's like you said and I didn't know, so thank you for that! 😉
But searching for the configurator it appears a message not available for the moment.
@@rico.2463 you're welcom, i guess they will ad it soon!
Interesting, thanks for sharing!
Nice and light fast and very flickable like a 125 but the lack of low down torque for long steep rocky hills while racing has made me go back to 250cc with the added weight penalty.
Which 200 2t did you have, I've found the Beta has heaps of torque for a 200
thanks for sharing Albert
@tcmx712 It was an old WR200 Yamaha with a big bore and ported top end mod..I've ridden all the recent 200s as I was gonna consider the lovely Beta 200 as well..but one test ride on a 250 Husky at a few hundred dollars more convinced me that this is my race bike..I've only got to try and work out how to reduce around 25 kilograms off the beast.
My 2016 KTM 200 XC-W will always be my favourite bike and I will never get rid of it. For me, KTM dropping the 200 and bringing in the (incredibly pointless) 150 is the biggest mistake they made as a top tier manufacturer.
Correct the jetting and cut the cylinder head for better low end power.
What adjustments did you make to the jetting?
I own the MR 300 Pro and I may consider going back to a 250 for a more 'spirited' riding experience. But the 200 weighs the same as the 250 and 300 and it's a heavy bike . I don't believe the 200 offers a benefit for smaller riders because it's just too heavy for the average petite rider .
it feels lighter and its definitely easier to ride plus doesn't wear you out quickly..
Is that your private ranch? I'm pretty sure that would be sold as "competition only."
are you a cop?
@@dirtniron I'm not a cop, but you are an Influencer...dumbshit politicians usually put more restrictions in place when they see that their policies don't work...look at the 2A...
Wanted to ask u if you are going to talk about the kove excelle 450 rally
I havent heard about them yet..
@@dirtniron me to herd about them this weak cuz this year i didnt go to eicma but its preaty cool not realy a hard enduro bike thow thats why i ahked thanks for repling :)
Once the Orange Koolaid wears you’ll notice the Reiju is a better bike than KTM.
unfortunately in the United States you can't register new 2 stroke motorcycles for street use.
some states still can
Oklahoma you can
I have a home in NC & TN and can title in both.
vforce has issues with their power reeds the reeds never close they always stay open ,and they load up the motor too much
I never heard about that, running them on all my 2 strokes with zero problems
