I had a '92 KX250 from new. I feel it is still the best looking bike from the 90s still to this day. The bike did handle like a ocean liner, and felt tall in the corners, but after riding it for a while you learned how to turn it with the back of the bike. As for the engine, stock it was mellow and didn't really have a hit. Adding a FMF pipe/silencer helped, but the biggest difference was adding a Boyesen RAD valve. That single part, along with race gas work the bike up big time! Combined with great suspension it was a beast. Unfortunately this era's chassis was prone to cracking, which I fought throughout owning it.
I love this bike, and one day I'll pick one up to rebuild.
Maybe it's just me but the 80s and 90s were a special time for motocross. I had a 89 CR125 for a few years and then bought a 96 YZ125 from a top Canadian pro rider at the time.. He was sponsored by Yamaha Canada and had some trick internals...the whole bike was tricked out.
After riding the YZ I couldn't go back to the CR.
The 96 YZ 125 was revolutionary
Who wrote this..I bought mine new & still have it. My 92 will turn under just about anything made. The suspension is set up for 140lbs max, stock. Making it almost unrideable , it just plain sucks in sand due to chaise geometry 26.5* even after respiring and re valving for My weight. I have a Tom Morgan prepped cylinder and head , with pro circuit pipe and silencer with a rad valve. With 110 octane fuel the engine rips
I will never forget buying my 91 KX 250 and breaking her in wow, wheels had a hard time staying on ground :)
I remember when the 92 came out.... looked extremely modern for its time for sure.
Once again u nailed it TONY..my bro gotta new '91. He is tall I am not ..he loved it ..I hated it..bike felt like a locomotive ..stable as. Hell..when going straight it was plush ..was very slow..new nothing about the'92 model..now I do. Thanks TONY
When i was 12 going on 13 my grandpa bought me a cheap 1990 for 600. Mind u it was a vibrating bolt eating hellhound deathtrap! But the engine had just been stripped and everything from new Crack and bearings and seals, as well as being race ported and bored over 20 thou, had all the jetting and lil goodies to make it fuckin haul ass. I can't recall the gearing it had but omfg itd dig and roost a corn field any size from one end to the other lol. As well as i kid u not over 100 mph. My grandpa who bought it speed matched me and paced me at 103 and no shit my 13 year old 130 pound ass had almost 1/3 rd of the throttle left to twist. Itd twist that wrist for sure lol. And dropped it off and omfg lol the raw power this had. Thing stood up every gear no problem at all. All my buddies adored it lol they always were taking off on it to turn around and jump right back off and go hell no lolol. Scared the shit out of everyone. And left many people speechless. Left alot of nice quads and bikes in the dust lol. Thing damn near'd take flight if i had the right tail wind when u crested the hill on a back country road! Lolol
I have a 92 kx250 i restored. The power valve on it is the coolest thing on a 2 stroke ive ever experienced. When you are high in the rpm and back it down you can actually hear the exhaust tone change from blatting loud to really quite and tame.
I respectfully request a overview of the Honda FourTrax 250r please.
Nice review !!! Would love to jump on one now, to see and feel the thngs you comment.
Well done, great writing/narration
thank you
Hey Tony it's Kyle Langworthy again hey I was just wondering if you could do a 2004 RMZ 250 shirt a lot of people hated my bike but it's one of the favorite bikes I've ever had if you could do a shirt with that bike on it I would definitely purchase one either a t-shirt or hoodie or both I had asked you about it before but I know how busy you are sorry to keep bugging you but let me know if you can do that for me
I actually did it right after you requested it it’s on my tee spring store right now
@@TheMotocrossVault oh my gosh man thank you I'm going to jump on there and buy one right now thank you Tony keep up the awesome content bro you're amazing God bless
@@TheMotocrossVault hey I just checked out the Teespring store pretty keep bothering you man but I cannot find the 2004 Suzuki rmz250
@@TheMotocrossVault hey Tony I finally found it LOL that's awesome man you got hoodie t-shirt even a onesie for my son thanks man you're so awesome
Hey Tony it's Kyle again LOL man I'm really sorry to keep bugging you I found the 04 RMZ on the site I was looking through it but couldn't find the option to change anything besides color and size I was wondering are those customizable as far as the number goes I'd like to put my old Motocross number on if possible if not no problem I will just order it the way it comes with the 188 on it let me know thanks brother God bless
That bastard broke 4 of my ribs!
Great stuff. Thanks
great review,,,,, you should start doing more sport quad reviews like you do the bikes.....that would be awsome...or even dirt wheels mag. reviews like the one you did before.
I'm working on one for the Yamaha Banshee
@@TheMotocrossVault hell yeah, awsome, cant wait...i know you will do a killer job. LOL
I have the KX250 that came out 10 years later, the '02 model and I like it very much.
Been looking forward to this one!
Thanks for the informations brother
You do a great job on these videos and I would like to suggest that you maybe try to do a story about the Maico of the 1980 era. Also I understand it may take a lot of time but if you can maybe ( once again we need to respect your time ) if you could do maybe history of the manufactures as they got into the off-road or motocross motorcycle market. You do a fabulous job with all your content
Possibly!
As Always Bravo 👏 🙌 👌
Good vidéo 👍 super kx 💚💚💚 power 💪
Can't believe you sell boring gm vehicles. You have so much passion you should sell motorcycles lol
I actually quit to be the GM at my buddy’s Honda motorcycle dealership back in 2008 but I found out we were having our first child and chickened out of making the jump
@@TheMotocrossVault You made the right choice. Motorcycle business is way too unstable, it's always in an identity crisis and the turnover was insane -(former parts guy at a moto dealership)
I have a 92 and hearing what you said makes alot of sense, and trouble i'v had on corners and how i have become to ride the bike! But must say i love riding it :}
