So stoked to have you guys along on yet another mXrevival Build & Giveaway journey with me 🙌 Don’t forget to let me know what you learned or liked in today’s video to win one free entry to win this badass bike! You can also get entered here too: www.mxrevival.com/mxrevival-bike-builds Keep it pinned, and I’ll see you in the next episode! -Charles // mXrevival
One thing I noticed when you were done straightening the fins , you could really see through the fins so much better. It really opened them up ! Thanks for showing us.
Such a huge difference! Wish I could’ve shown these from the very beginning, had it not started as a personal bike. Feels good when you can see through them like you said!
Labor of love!!! The amount of time and attention put into this build (and any build) makes a big difference. Don't rush the process and be patient. Take you time and try to get it right the first time to save yourself the hassle. Seeing all the different companies and people involved in this just goes to show how deep the support of the moto community is! Build relationships and support people who have an idea and a dream. Help them make it a reality. Start talking and build relationships with people and you'll be surprised what can come of it. I think this goes for life in general. Come together and get shiz done!! I hope this channel and future builds helps people connect and spark ideas and friendships so we can continue to see this kind of stuff grow! Thanks for the free tutorial and tips on the radiator. This is one anyone can do and is a good starting point for "DIY'ers" looking to start somewhere. *Side note - Did anyone else get sucked into the satisfaction of watching that radiator transform?! I sure did. Pretty cool before and after. Can't wait to see this thing done and in someone's garage!
Dude, I can’t even with your attention to detail! Love it, watching these videos makes me want to just go out and work on my bike haha definitely an inspiration. On the off chance I actually win this bike I’m gonna be afraid to ride it and put all your work in the dirt lol
That is so awesome, stoked to read that! Time for you to get out into the shop and throw some wrenches! I hope you do, and I hope you scratch the hell out of it ⚡️
I love the attention to detail. It seems to me that sometimes some people did not appreciate the two strokes back when and that’s why you can find so many ragged and tattered machines today. Now that many manufacturers are no longer making these amazing two strokes, people are realizing what they are missing. This has brought about a revival in the two stroke machines where people are going all out with builds. Personally, I love it. To my knowledge, the first party that really got into the restoration of special race bikes was St. Neots in the UK. I have owned a number of bikes over the decades and only 3 have been four strokes (cbr900rr, gsxr750, and a DRZ400S). I have two stroke motocross bikes and two stroke street bikes. I don’t think I will ever own another four stroke motorcycle again. I don’t care what the manufacturers add do with traction control, wheelie control, antilock brakes, or anything else they dream up. All of my interest and money goes towards two strokes only. Builds like this RM250 inspire me to take care of my motorcycles and to go all out with my builds. Thank you for your inspiring attention to detail.
Beautiful bike. I had a RM250 when I was 16 now 47 and no motorcycle. Watching this video got my adrenaline running and heart pumping crazy remembering how fun it was. I love two strokes. I live in my mothers commercial building and would love to ride that beauty inside. Just subscribed. Thanks for the video and for building this bike for us to see.
I had a late 2003 that was all PRO CIRCUIT. One of their race bikes. I got it in 2012. Rebuilt it. It was incredible. Sold it in 2016 to go KTM 2 stroke. Ring, ning, ning. BRAAAAP!
It's crazy you used that fin comb. I actually used them and have them in the refrigeration industry for condensing units to straighten fins and never thought about buying more and altering them like you did.I always used the machine screw drivers to straighten. Great job reconditioning those radiators.
Really enjoy your videos! Yes theres alot of bikes out there needing some help theres only certian companies making them new. You guys have to keep rebuilding these bikes I cant understand why people refuse to take care of these bikes. Hopeing to come across a couple KX's my self to build. I never had any luck with RM's.
A pair of flat nose jewelers pliers would work best for the rads if you want to get extra psycho with it. Hope this helps! The bike looks amazing 👌 My favorite part of this video was the vapor blasting. I loved watching thoes rads become shiny af😍😍
That’s incredible, I’ll be looking into that right away. I knew somebody here would have a killer answer for that so I really appreciate it. Time to activate the psycho mode! (if I can find them, I will also throw a link in the video description for everyone else too)
Hey, B! I chose your comment as my $100 winner in this video's comment giveaway! If you're in North America, I've got you covered on an entry for the RM250 giveaway. Reach out to me here, in any case, please! www.mxrevival.com/contact (yes, it's really me!) -Charles // mXrevival
@mxrevival the cylinder was ported for a famous GP rider, DEP plated pipe, oversize front rotor with a braided line with factory team pads and an ARC brake lever with inserts to change the leverage ratio, Faast bars and BRP clamps, Hinson basket and more.
I'm just happy you're one of VERY FEW TH-camrs I watch that play METAL 🤘🤘🤘in your videos. I'm so happy I don't have to hear... you know, that other stuff 🤮. I love the RMs too. I have an 04 myself. 👍
Yo check it out. Phil’s been asleep for an hour so rake and glomb are gona take a dump on Phil’s chest. He’s gona be soooooh maed “DAMNIT BAM I GOTTA WORK IN THA MORNIN” “WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY”
The dick jokes are entertaining with Uncle Tony @ mXskillshack but really enjoy the tempo and vibe of this side as well. You are an artist my friend. Enjoying your creativity as always.
Thank you, dude! There are definitely a couple different dynamics. I guess we can call one of them “dick dynamics” 😂 we can’t help but screw off when we are working together. It’s pretty fun. Glad to show a little more personality between each channel and thanks for being a part of all of it
I’m a past Army Medic, now a Firefighter… dick jokes are a national pastime. Love both channels equally. You inspire me to challenge my tuning and building. Even eyeballing a vapor setup myself. Just added a large ultra-sonic cleaner last most, works great… except on accelerator pump diaphragms lol.
Good eye! 2004. Some talk about it in episode one. Any older on 250s would’ve be To my knowledge, 04, 05 and 06 are all the same, including the plastic guide rings for the fork guard 47mm Showa TC’s. 07 and 08 got rid of the plastic guide rings and went with some trim down steel type that look much better. Internally, I’m not sure if they differ from previous 04+ units. The earliest RMZ models used the same as well. But in 2003, on the 250 two stroke only, they would have been open bath KYB forks. Strangely enough, the 125 had Showa TC’s the entire time. (they also had the long ass front brake line, non-Honda style in 03. Honda patent on that ran out, and pretty much everyone had the shorter Honda style line by 05 with Suzuki potentially being the first in 2004) Thanks for watching!
I love the idea of trying to fix things that might be thrown away. There is something to be said for taking time and trying to bring something back to new condition. Vapor blasting make the radiator look crisp. Love the build!!!
Dream build, love this thing, probably my most anticipated build that I've seen ya do yet. Really like the video brother. I love the fact you are showing the tools you have found over the course of years, trial and error, how to better improve bikes. A lot of us suffer with radiators and normally need to settle on inferior Chinese replicas, but thanks to your video bro you have inspired and taught us how to repair them. Really cool too showing all the parts and coatings, I'm feeling the titanium 💯 . Dude it was also super cool you gave us rm fans a little secret that isn't too known... the front brake caliper from a 2024 rmz bolts directly to to the forks... no one really ever talks about that.
That’s what it’s all about my man! I will say, this is my favorite comment so far…. Very in-depth and I can tell you really enjoyed the video. Which I get stoked on. So thanks for the feedback and the awesome comment, buddy.
@mxrevival thanks Charles, I appreciate brother. Definitely enjoy all the videos as well as you and Tony's videos for mxskillshack. All the stuff you dudes drop is straight fire and super in depth. I appreciate the fact you take the time to make these videos and show people. A lot of builders and people who do it for a living, they are secretive and don't share the hard learned knowledge, they just show you the after results, and no the in depth like you. Much support bro 💯 and happy fathers day.
Looks awesome! Couldnt have done it better myself. I ended up buying some oem kx125 radiators off of ebay for one of my bikes in ok condition. Sure a heck wish i had that comb tool. One thing i did do was threw the radiators in the ultra sonic cleaner. I was surprised with how much stuff came out after a flush.
Nice work finding some OEM units! The tool was so stinking cheap, maybe $20? Definitely made life easier and although not perfect, better than doing each Finn by hand. I sent these through the ultrasonic cleaner before they went out to ICW and the same thing, just junk four days! ICW certainly appreciated that ha ha
Man Charles, I was checking out the RM on Instagram yesterday and the triple clamps smacked me in the face! That color is sick, and the other parts done with that color just pops. That particular reel though the clamps show first and man, it was instant candy! Lovin this build. Rads lookin tight....I've done quite a bit of fin straightening with the offroad oil field equipment I work on and have to say, nice job man cause it sucks. Those rads turned out outstanding for saving them. I'd be using em too at those prices, well, whoever is the lucky winner will be for sure! Lol. Have a great weekend you and the fam...🤙
Nice!!! I love the titanium color too. Thanks for watching the whole video, I know I didn’t mention the price of radiators till the end. Keep up the good work on all those machines that need you out in the oil fields Someone in the comments just gave a killer tip on flat nosed pliers so I’m going to look into that as well. To get that last wiggle out of the fins
Hello from northern Minnesota - absolutely love the attention to detail frt to back !! Imo the triple trees and especially the swingarm ( which typically is just covered with a decal) is stunning and my favorite piece of all the work into the build !! The color off sets the yellow and really gives it the works look !!! Radiator repair VERY interesting 🤔 nothing these boys can't fix !! A +++ channel 👍 thank you for all revival and skill shack do for the dirt community ❤
You saved my bacon again! My radiators are looking like they are 36 years old...because they are! Lol! I was going to try some of those aluminum flea bay specials, but now I can make it look better and be more functional!
Haha! “Cuz they are!” Stoked. It was useful. Nothing wrong with the alternative for the most part, especially if that’s all there is. Awesome news, thanks for watching & I had bacon for Father’s Day…
Thanks for your interest! Nope, this one is raffle style. It’s about an eighth of the amount of normal entries I allow in. “We miss 100% of the shots we don’t take!” -some basketball dude 😅
It could, but that sort of what we are clearing out anyways. If it was close to breaking, and the tool breaks it… it can be deleted with the others while we are on the hunt
Hell yeah Charles she's coming together nicely! I like the time lapse on the Finn repair.. mannn you make it look easy but I appreciate the tips on how to repair versus replace!! my 97 CR250R fell over on a set of running boards and a dented the right side of my rad in.. I believe I'll be trying this technique before I go ahead and buy a new one, thanks for the demo!
Thank you! I bet you’ll do a killer job fixing your radiator. If I remember correctly, the 97 had one giant radiator? I could be wrong. Have a blast while you’re wrenching bro.
@@mxrevival Yessir one big rad on the first Gens. It weighs itself out tho as replacing a right side rad and only having one new unit would suck whereas if I have to replace the the whole thing at least it's one new unit 💪
I'm restoring an 03 RM-125 as well- I left a pic of the hub on your latest FB reel.. It has super Chrome base coat, candy red with a silver flake clear powder coat 🔥
I've completely rebuilt a couple bikes for myself, concentrating only on mechanical soundness. While I have had great success, I never pay attention to cosmetics-ive had the same kx 250 for 18 years and it has never had graphics. I appreciate your attention to detail and this radiator video is great. 👍
That’s awesome! They can look as good as we want, but they won’t run without your attention to detail on the inside. Excellent work dude! And thanks for watching.

I like the little tips you give whether it’s vapor blasting or showing the process of something so small. Thanks uncle chuck !
"When you're this close it's just not that pretty...", things you can't say to your girlfriend / wife. Either way, great job on the build! 👍👍
One thing I noticed when you were done straightening the fins , you could really see through the fins so much better. It really opened them up ! Thanks for showing us.
Such a huge difference! Wish I could’ve shown these from the very beginning, had it not started as a personal bike. Feels good when you can see through them like you said!
Absolutely love and miss riding a RM 250, remember the hit when it came on the pipe. 😮 pulled like a freight train.
Pretty much makes me want to go ride right now!

The sickest RM250 on the planet. Love you work Charles 😎
Massive thanks, I really really appreciate that. And thanks for watching!.
Bring older 2strokes back to life is revolutionary.
Let’s keep them alive! Thanks for watching 🙌
Those plastic razor blades look effing amazing. What a great idea!
They are awesome! And they come in a massive pack so I’m not sure I’ll ever run out of them 😆
It's crazy you used that fin comb. I actually used them and have them in the refrigeration industry for condensing units to straighten fins and never thought about buying more and altering them like you did.I always used the machine screw drivers to straighten. Great job reconditioning those radiators.
This bike is evolving into such a beast! Very nice...
Thanks dude!
Incredible restoration already ordered myself some plastic razor blades. Great tip thanks brother. Keep them coming!!
Oh dude hell, yes! You’re going to love them. Enjoy, and thanks a ton for watching.
The icw rads are wicked
They get me, every time! Thanks for watching!
I love this bike. I've always liked Suzuki bikes. This bike is gonna be gorgeous. You seriously know how to build some awesome bikes.
Thanks, dude! Anyone can do it. Just a little bit of imagination and execution.
Heat treating does not always involve heat 🔥
Quite the opposite, it turns out!
Really enjoy your videos! Yes theres alot of bikes out there needing some help theres only certian companies making them new. You guys have to keep rebuilding these bikes I cant understand why people refuse to take care of these bikes. Hopeing to come across a couple KX's my self to build. I never had any luck with RM's.
Just the tip😂 the black hardware is smooth
Always teasing…😂
A pair of flat nose jewelers pliers would work best for the rads if you want to get extra psycho with it. Hope this helps! The bike looks amazing 👌 My favorite part of this video was the vapor blasting. I loved watching thoes rads become shiny af😍😍

I have the sexiest RM250 as of now. Good luck my dude!!
Big sexy in the house!
Rebuilding my 04 RM with lots of trick parts, graphics and seatcover, different euro pipe also.
Sounds like it’s going to be insane! Keep it going my man 🔥 shoot an email anytime you need a hand

Hahaha! If it gets me feeling good, I go for it! Keep shredding, metalhead!
👍👍🍺. It’s so nice
I had an 89 rm125 I called it the tank. Cause there wasn't anything that I couldn't go through or up with that thing. I was a trail rider.
I believe it! I still have an 1989 250 and a 1990 125. They even look like tanks! Thanks for watching bro
Yo check it out. Phil’s been asleep for an hour so rake and glomb are gona take a dump on Phil’s chest. He’s gona be soooooh maed “DAMNIT BAM I GOTTA WORK IN THA MORNIN” “WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY”

The front forks look to be 2004, or older, or do you know that already, 2005 and up have the newest technology inside
Good eye! 2004. Some talk about it in episode one. Any older on 250s would’ve be

Nop docwob has you beat
😅
Some of those rad fins looked like girls I used to date 😮
gold hubs black rims is a classic tastefull look!🤌🏼
My G 🫵
I love the idea of trying to fix things that might be thrown away. There is something to be said for taking time and trying to bring something back to new condition. Vapor blasting make the radiator look crisp. Love the build!!!
I enjoy all of the video but my favourite part is see the bije its self i like the tires how they look.
Nice!!!!
Dream build, love this thing, probably my most anticipated build that I've seen ya do yet. Really like the video brother.

I’m glad you made this great video on straightening radiator fans and what tool to use I haven’t seen another one this detailed
What button do I press for a second thumbs up! This is how you do a restoration🔥 amazing
All you peeps better get your tickets 🦅
Looks awesome! Couldnt have done it better myself. I ended up buying some oem kx125 radiators off of ebay for one of my bikes in ok condition. Sure a heck wish i had that comb tool.

I sent these through the ultrasonic cleaner before they went out to ICW and the same thing, just junk four days! ICW certainly appreciated that ha ha
I would build a rotating glass case in my living room so I could look at this bike all day - well done!
Thanks, Mark! I won’t stop till it’s on someone’s mantle!
Like I said! Can't friggin wait to ride that Suzy ride! Thanks again for at least letting us see her again!
Shooting for every two weeks! It’s all for you, man!
Man Charles, I was checking out the RM on Instagram yesterday and the triple clamps smacked me in the face! That color is sick, and the other parts done with that color just pops. That particular reel though the clamps show first and man, it was instant candy! Lovin this build. Rads lookin tight....I've done quite a bit of fin straightening with the offroad oil field equipment I work on and have to say, nice job man cause it sucks.

Nice!!! I love the titanium color too. Thanks for watching the whole video, I know I didn’t mention the price of radiators till the end.
Keep up the good work on all those machines that need you out in the oil fields
Someone in the comments just gave a killer tip on flat nosed pliers so I’m going to look into that as well. To get that last wiggle out of the fins
Hello from northern Minnesota - absolutely love the attention to detail frt to back !! Imo the triple trees and especially the swingarm ( which typically is just covered with a decal) is stunning and my favorite piece of all the work into the build !! The color off sets the yellow and really gives it the works look !!! Radiator repair VERY interesting 🤔 nothing these boys can't fix !! A +++ channel 👍 thank you for all revival and skill shack do for the dirt community ❤
Heck, yeah Mikey! Thanks for being a part of it with us every weekend on both channels
Excellent video quality with exceptional narration of what is being done makes the task shown doable by anyone with basic mechanical skills!
Thanks for saying so, and for watching 🫵🙏🙌
You saved my bacon again! My radiators are looking like they are 36 years old...because they are! Lol! I was going to try some of those aluminum flea bay specials, but now I can make it look better and be more functional!
Haha! “Cuz they are!” Stoked. It was useful. Nothing wrong with the alternative for the most part, especially if that’s all there is.
Awesome news, thanks for watching & I had bacon for Father’s Day…
My favorite part of the video is that it's a Suzuki RM The best bike ever made And I'm loving the black hardware and that yellow frame🔥
Aren’t they awesome? The black hardware is probably my favorite.
Your Suzuki videos makes me want to totally rebuild my 2001 drz400e.
Dude, do it!!! So fun, bond with her
Ive always been a huge suzuki fan always had RM250 and i love this bike and the work you do!
Keep it up!
Aren’t they great?! Thank you, glad you’re enjoying the series. It feels good to be back.
I have a 1972 ds-7 Yamaha 250 two strokes are the most exciting bikes little bikes that keep up with the big dogs
That sounds so rad!
Damn I would enter if it weren't a 1 in 350 chance, do you enter by buying merchandise? If so that would be great
Thanks for your interest! Nope, this one is raffle style. It’s about an eighth of the amount of normal entries I allow in.
“We miss 100% of the shots we don’t take!” -some basketball dude 😅
The swingarm is beautiful on this build.
Loving the titanium color as well
Saucy radiators are 🔥
Crown jewel in the middle…#PHAT
That tool is nice.
Maybe the best $20 I’ve spent in a minute!
waiting for the flow spokes!
Hahahahahahaha!! if you win, consider it done. Thanks so much for being a part of this!
Would this break the fins?
It could, but that sort of what we are clearing out anyways. If it was close to breaking, and the tool breaks it… it can be deleted with the others while we are on the hunt
Another great video!!!
Thanks dude!
On point!
OG in the house 🫵🙌
Vet masters here I come lol

Great work Charles!
