Why get a 2 stroke ? Easier to work on ! Usually only requires a top end which is so easy to do and not that expensive ! The smell is killer ! Very lightweight ! The Power is out of this world ! You become a legend to your friends !
while im not biggest fan of "chainsaw screaming" (i used to live next to lumber mill and those freakin chainsaws were running 20 hours per day) , the smell... the sweet smell and sheer killer pull that this bike makes was enough to make me love them. still prefer deep gurgling sound of 4 stroke, riding wise, there is no replacement for 2 strokers :D .
used to have a cr500 2 stroke THAT was insane!! lol I now have (besides my DRZ 400 ) A yz250 with full Supermoto setup & Dirtbike wheels ready to swap out..
Used to borrow my kid brothers RM80. Back then I was 100kg. That thing made my eyeballs bleed. Can't imagine what the 250 would do. Great video, happy memories..
Ive had my 99 rm250 for a little over a month. Havent ridden in 2 weeks. Ive put about $220 into it so far. Came with fresh rebuild top and bottom. Thing absolutely rips
@@aidanmacdonald6602 That's okay, maybe try mountain biking instead. I didn't get my first dirt bike until I was 24. I started with MTBing and I enjoy it just as much if not more. Dirt bikes are expensive!
Hahaha. Tell me about it. Omg engine braking OMG it's gonna blow up and your gonna need to do a ten thousand dollar rebuild engine braking this engine braking that
Yikes! Those 500cc 2-smokes are Fuckin retarded. This guy just got into 2 strokes I don’t think he should jump into a 500 just yet. It’s unreal the bike acts like it wants desperately to kill you. You basically have to sit on the tank if you want any chance of actually riding the dam thing! 😅
I had a Ninja ZX1000R and a friend of mine let me ride his Honda CR250 2 stroke one time. I thought to myself "This is nothing". I opened it up without even holding in the clutch and took off like a bat out of hell fish tailing as I almost lost it. When I came to a settle my friend told me the only reason I didn't wipe was because I held my feet firmly to the pegs. That thing was a beast. Too bad they're so high in maintenance. Later.
Ibcn Things the 250's really aren't that much maintenance especially if you're more into trails and what not. MX races will definitely shorten service intervals quite a bit, but an enduro 200-300cc 2 stroke only needs a topend every 80-150 hours, very comparable to 4 stroke bikes and way cheaper/easier to do.
Backyard; Right on. I think I'll get a Yamaha WR250R first and mod it some then maybe a WF. A YZ would just get me in trouble riding over the neighbors roof's. Ha.
The reason a 250 2T is a beast is because the engine makes over 50 horsepower and they are very lightweight compared to heavy supersport bike. Ofc a ninja will have more top speed because more cc and very much better aerodynamic
I'm supposed to be getting my first dirt bike soon and thought about a 250 2 stroke because of my weight (200lbs) now I'm thinking of getting a 125 instead...still, I heard the 250 is easier to ride because of the low end but once it gets into powerband theres no going back, you either ride or die
Walked into the Suzuki dealer one day in 1976. No experience on a two-stroke. Salesman looked at me askance and let me take an RM-250 for a test ride. Got it started. Shifted into first (mistake). Let it rip. Wheelied for two blocks before my brain caught up with the torque and I let go of the gas. Can't wait to do -that- again.
@@dngl21 hey real quick I need help finding a bike. I want a two stoke in between a 125 and 250 just for trail riding, climbing hills, etc. I don’t know if I should get a yz125, 150SX, Cr150, and so on. I’m 6 foot 170lbs and it’ll be my first 2 stroke but I can’t find any videos on bikes that would fit my well
@@Moosewoodworks I haven't rode in like 15 yrs but I would say the YZ125 (good beginner bike). Personally, I would go with an enduro bike for trail riding(better low end torque, front lights, bigger gas tank) Motorcross bikes are fun but are kind of stiff and limited.
hahahaha just got one from my wife myself. had the 125 version havent ridden in 13 years and she gets me my dream bike. boy let me tell you i feel the same. and thats racing the 125 to intermediate and im all holy hell this thing has balls
I have an 04 they are pretty insane very nimble and turn in very quick. Power hits hard and quickly in the mid range. I put a flywheel weight on tames it down a bit. Stock expansion chamber is my favorite just change out the muffler for a r304 shorty and its good.
So, I just locked in a deal with a fam friend/bike mechanic and grew up riding 50-125cc things. My step pops, and all the best riders back in the 90s, I remember they all rode these 2 stroke zukis. I've never ridden anything bigger than a little 125 as a 13 yr old.. But I'm 260 lbs, and 35 now, and finally talked ol.boy into parting with his 97 RM 250, and has been fixing it up just right, and will keep working on it until I buy it Oct. 1st or so... At $800-850... And has been getting love... I'm gonna get a trailer and tow behind my Lexus LS430 til I get a truck... And definitely starting slllllow and careful of the clutch, whiskey throttle situations... Any advice for my big ass? I know these things are a beast apart, and know how to ride a clutch, on a car and learned on smaller bikes. Any advice for starting out and learning to tame the stallyn would be good
You can shift without the clutch on a WR as well. My very second bike was an RM 125. I think it was 1983. Got me started on street bikes. Now full circle back to a dirt bike.
I love your videos man! would like to see more 2 stroke action :D but all the enginebraking makes me shiver. Enginebraking is not good for 2 strokes. again, love the channel!
Yeah that's the reason. The cylinder only gets lubrication when there is fule going trough. So when shift down and let off the throttle the rpm goes ut and no oil is lubricating the engine. Takes some getting used to when you come from a 4 stroke where you can enginebrake as much as you want :)
I did some research into it, apparently a huge controversy. Yes, when the engine is on it gets oil and fuel. But the Problem occurs at high rpm. When you are closed throttle you have very little gas/oil making its way into the crank case. Arguable not enough to keep the Internals Properly lubed. I do not know enough about it to say for sure, one way or the other.
I'm 15 and I started riding motorcycles last year and it was a KTM 250 EXC 2 stroke. I thought myself and it doesn't seem crazy powerful. That may just be because I haven't riden anything else. You can see my bike on instagram @__exc_rider__
Can’t wait to get a rm250, been riding for 7 years an now that I’m 16 I think it’s time for me to get a 2 stroke. I rode my dads rm and it was so much fun. These things fucking haul ass
Gladius Jon nice!! my '00 cr250r will be mine for rest of my life. and rebuilding motor is retardedly easy and cheap. smog laws limit two smokes somewhat after '02 here in cali. but an '00-'02 is faster than most new bikes. hella light too. shit, well you know. glad youre getting one soon! that bike will open up a whole nother world of fucktastic shenanigans out there im sure! haha
Nice! Im not sure about VA, I dont think we have any restrictions on 2t. Shit I know guys that get them plated here. Yea im already planing some crazy shit, local mx races, jumps, gncc hair scrambler. Cant wait
Don't loop it out. My 99 is a 4 stroke game changer. The few that have ridden it came back grinnin ear to ear. With the power valve all the way down. ✌
Me to its my first bike 2 but like what does it matter its not a kx500 2 stroke its about as big as ill go and im 6'5 160 so not much reason for me to go bigger.
It would just die once it got good n warm with the choke on, once he rolled of the trottle. Bike sounds good n crisp. Late 90 rms make a lot of engine noises. Pops cracks ticks. .. Possibly slightly lean at best
My next bike will be a 2 stroke for sure the only reason why I don’t have a 2 stroke is because I’m a beginner and my dad wouldn’t let me buy a 2 stroke even though I’m the one paying for it so that’s kinda dumb I mean I think I should’ve been the one to choose what type of dirt bike I bought
2 strokes are good fun, but it just depends how much money ya wanna spend on riding, i know my mates spend twice as much as me when we go out for a ride on fuel and oil, wherei spend $8 in gas on my DRZ 400, they spend $25 in gas and then another $10 in oil.. im all about the cheap and easy riding..lol, make sure you dont flip those 2 smokers thou.. lol,
yeah they get away with cheaper fuel but not on the high cost of valve/chain and cam gear when it comes to rebuilding time. No matter which you go for it all adds up the same eventually.
A dam rm a bad bike I got one fully rebuilt from top to bottom it's a beast best of the best over 10 thousand dollars invested in the bike I have too many names brands too talk about great video have a great time be careful with that rm it can put out over70 horse power too rear wheel it's a dam best the one I bought and totally rebuilt it from top too bottom Mike holden out of North Carolina said that
Think they only went up that high Maby latest 06 honestly stay away parts arnt made for the 125 250 rm if you lucky to find some they cost literally a arm and leg found out the hard way I baufht one to rebuild a big issue on these were the cylinders
you need to sort the pilot jetting and needle out in the carb, sounds horrible at bottom end and thats why you get a big burst of power higher up when your fuelling is crisp
Give over, its too rich at the bottom, its not until about half revs it starts to sound crisp, you can hear it mainly when he turns off the stone track into the wooded part, then back onto the stone part from the woods.

I love the way those two strokes sound. Great vlog.
Thank you!
This is why they say mixing gas & hauling ass.

These engines not that reliable?
I don’t see a massive problem with engine braking tbh

250 2 stroke as a first dirtbike is like getting a 1000cc sports bike as your first road bike. I would not advise it.
What you get? IMO if you do go for a true liquid cooled 250 Japanese/KTM MX bike, get used to it for a week in a field. Hope the bug bit deep.

yup. when you let of the throttle, the engine is only getting the amout of oil it would get at idle. which of course is not enough for high rpms
as lomg as oil aint goin in the engine separetly

Dont tempt me! lol
Completely different from my experience.

what microphone do you use. the sound is very high quality.2 stroke great
Do you know what kind of pipe was on that bike, it sounded sweet
I think it was an fmf to be honest.

2 banger is a totally different beast than a 4 banger .👍
Just imagine if it was jetted properly or, if you'd take off the choke!!!
It would just die once it got good n warm with the choke on, once he rolled of the trottle. Bike sounds good n crisp. Late 90 rms make a lot of engine noises. Pops cracks ticks. .. Possibly slightly lean at best
Sounds like it might need a bit bigger main jet it chops up a bit at first when you wack on it but 250s are sweet
Welcome to the dark side my friend.
Love it man nice bike!
You have to keep it at max rev with it being 2 stroke. You also need to give the damn thing breaks.
Nop. You dont keep it at max revs. Watch This. th-cam.com/video/1kVVP8XY5dU/w-d-xo.html
Not on that it’s not a 125 bud u can be at a dead stop dump it 3 gear and shift and it will take it

What year was that RM? I heard aything older than a 2005 had fuelling problems that only got sorted by using race gas.

how is the lowend power?
you need to sort the pilot jetting and needle out in the carb, sounds horrible at bottom end and thats why you get a big burst of power higher up when your fuelling is crisp

Nope just an rm thing believe me. My mates rms are all like that
This for my first dirt bike. Is it ok?
Welcome to the club :)
I’m getting this bike for my first bike is this a bad idea
These things are nice. i have -06. once broke my collarbone because too new bike for me at the time and i switch a new tire and jump went too long xD
I have a 2006 RM250 Ricky Carmichael edition that thing is fun
Dude wanted to you to go first so he could pass you on camera, lol.
what's the song name in your intro?
Could someone with no experience ride this bike?
Yeah for sure lol i was just taken aback after all i heard about 250 2T vs the 4 strokes. Altho .. if you had the 500 2 stroke, well lol.
my ktm 300 can walk it tho.
You walked that 450 ? Fkn eh nice one 😊 looks like your having masses of fun out there. And thank you for the cool videos 👍
Yup!! No Prob!!
Honestly how do these compare to 450, just curious cause I’m trading my husky 250f to a yz250 and I really don’t want the power of a 450
Same peak power, different delivery of a 450.
Gladius Jon cool thanks for the help man!
Scary power
Low to mid range has a issue by the sound of it. Not clean. Otherwise looks like it goes well
Nah man it's an rm thing a few of my mates have rm 125s and 250s and they're all like that. Really jerky when they're not in band
Who owns that bike
Might wanna pull in the clutch instead of engine braking.
Year production?
WAS IT A RMX 250
