I did bronze Cerakote on the ignition cover & clutch cover on my son’s fully restored 2003 RM125. We’ll see how it holds up in 2023 riding season. I really want some of Cameron’s textured frame guard stickers ! I’d almost be afraid to ride his RM250 if I won it. Absolutely gorgeous ! 🔥😍
Man you don’t know how much these videos have helped me. Especially since I’m trying to rebuild an 02 RM250 as well. I think I’ve watched all of these build videos at least twice and some even more. Thanks for all you do.
Those textured engine cover decals are so rad! Have you considered making your own engine harness and just reusing the stock connectors? Would be a very cool custom touch to get some nice sleeving over everything, then you'll also have some new wire to support the fresh build
I think I’m speaking for everyone when I say that if you simply rebuilt the engine and didn’t do any of the beautiful customization we would still be grateful. Love your attention to detail and for being a perfectionist! Agree with you on the smooth one looking better but the texture will hold up better. The coconut oil joke(s) were hilarious!😂😂 Great video!
Dude.. I didn't want to say anything about the tire but that's exactly right. Charles Law. As temp decreases so does pressure and vice versa. It got cold here in texas and by both tires were flat on my bike. Just pumped them up and good to go. Overzealous got cha like it has me and all of us before. Love the build so far man.
Your always inspiring man. Thanks for being the super cool and down to earth person you are. I can't wait to take possession of the RM....lol. Stay fresh!
Good idea on protecting the ignition and clutch covers I used to PPF my bikes years ago. Personally I'd have gone for a fancier colour and used clear PPF, but nice having that printer to hand.
Those decals are excellent, what a fantastic idea. Hate the thought of coating stuff and spending hours making it look perfect only to wreck it after two rides. Please print some more I just went to buy a set and they already sold out. You da man Cam!
i am still watching from times to times the amazing work you made on the curb with this cerakote burnt bronze !! oh mate...you made the best looking work on carb i have ever seen! I will try to make my carbs like this one day and hope to get close to your result ! Keep on your wonderful videos and thank you very much for sharing mate !!
Nice job on the side covers. I like your ideas and improvements and the look of the bikes you do. My son purchased a 1992 rm125 and I’m helping him. Parts are hard to find but it’s getting there. We will post a picture of before and after to you so you can have a look for fun.
You have some mad building skills no doubt and yea we all make mistakes! On the fork alignment I found the best tool to use is the Motion Pro fork alignment tool. I have used the other tricks that you mentioned and this alignment tool has found that even these old tricks don't always align the forks every time. Great video and thanks for sharing this with us.
I absolutely love rm's! This bike will be one heck of a beauty! I realy respect you and your honesty with the kill switch, our the only way you make a mistake is by working hard on everything! A great moddo to teach our children. Love ya brother keep on building and sharing your knowledge you inspire many.
I have never heard of aligning the forks when re-installing a front wheel. Definitely going into the garage to see if that's why my fork seals are blown lol. Thanks for the tip!
Hey Cameron - once again, incredible video. I can't think of anyone else who displays the same level of ingenuity and attention to detail in their builds/restorations as you. Please keep posting content as often as you can. It really provides motivation for the rest of us. Happy New Year dude! 👍
Really nice fixes bro. Love the rough covers and frame guards. i think, maybe, the sticker on the inner fork leg may cause a leak but, who knows. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Merry Christmas bro! You should give some of those frame and case cover guards to some local riders, ask them to put your stickers on their rigs, get your name out there and get some testing done too. Love this build, can’t wait till it’s finished
Great work as always. love the little touches you add to your builds the engine cover decals are a great idea. This rm is going to be awesome when you're done with it would love to get those textured rm decals for my 98 rm250. Thanks for the videos I learn a lot from them keep up the good work 👍🏼👍🏼
Cam awesome job on the bike it’s coming along quite well! Question what kind of improvements do the phat heads really make in your opinion? Power increase? cooling the cylinder for sure I’d think ?
What suggestions do you have for a rebuilt engine that has been sitting for a year ? I wouldn’t want to blow up a engine due to putting it on the shelf for so long 😊
What is your compressor set up for your blasting cabinet? Also, how come you didn't solder those kill switch wires and then shrink wrap them? Great job though, love your vids!
Love the protection stickers I have some with that same texture on my bike from nihilo concepts. Would love to see you make some like that for the swing arm
If that valve cap has the o ring in it you should remove it. Sometimes those o rings will turn sideways and press on the valve core causing your tire to slowly leak air.
I need a rear axle bolt and adjuster for my 98 RM250. You have an extra one to get rid of?? Build looks great and I plan on using your vids to help rebuild my RM over winter but I really need an axle bolt. Had a hard time getting ahold of.
Man I got to say those vinyl covers that you came up with are pretty badass and a great idea especially for those magnesium covers. I got an 89 CR250 I have completely rebuilt and I wouldn't mind getting some of those CR250 ones when they're ready for distribution. By the way merry Christmas to you and your family I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a great New Year coming
Im sure someone has asked but how did you make or get the template for the engine cover decals? That is an awesome idea! And my build already has black covers this would be super easy for me! Thanks if you read this!
Heck teahouse bro. Can't wait to see the shop and the bike both good video content. I really liked the rough texture stickers .. I'd like some of those. Happy Holidays bro
I too have to restore one soon, I found the 2002 it seems to me the same as yours, can you confirm that it has a little worse delivery than the later ones? please friend let me know this thing i am interested to pick it up i love the engine very grumpy behavior for amateur use..you are doing an amazing job congratulations❤❤
god I'm loving this build. I would for certain consider purchasing this bike as opposed to "winning". I'm signed up but, congratulations to the lucky bastard who does win!👊🏼
Don’t know if you gonna respond back but I need help fixing my 2003 ttr 125. Basically it doesn’t idle and dies a couple seconds after letting go of throttle/clutch. Cleaned the jets, no fix. Recently (while it was very muddy) it just started bogging out of nowhere. Did something go into the carb? (Clean air filter). Next ride and gas is pouring out of overflow. Rode for a minute and it stopped, then I stalled it due to the profuse bogging and gas started pouring out again whenever the fuel was on… any thoughts? Definitely pulling the carb out, but what should I do? Thanks for any help love your videos
Just chillin watching this video after Christmas dinner man. Hope you and your family have a great day Cam and get some R&R too. RM is looking awesome as usual. Love your set up there and the results you get every time. Would love that RM in my shed for 2023 VMX racing. Keep it pinned dude and all the best 👍 👌
Maybe I can get some opinions here , I have a 2002 Honda Cr 250 and a 2006 rm 250 I just want to keep one and not sure which one I should sell. Each bike has it's good and bad so any input would be appreciated in making up my mind I do like both bikes .
This man is a beast. Make a comment on a video from 4 years ago and got a response in less the 9 minutes. The world we live in is just amazing.

You got me man. I was like, "Nooooo! DO NOT put that sticker on the lower fork leg!"
On another note ypu should add those stickers to your store i like the look of them
Man you don’t know how much these videos have helped me. Especially since I’m trying to rebuild an 02 RM250 as well. I think I’ve watched all of these build videos at least twice and some even more. Thanks for all you do.
Love all the new stuff! Can’t thank you enough for the plug! The Clevis is so cool, beautiful quality.
Those textured engine cover decals are so rad!
Have you considered making your own engine harness and just reusing the stock connectors? Would be a very cool custom touch to get some nice sleeving over everything, then you'll also have some new wire to support the fresh build
Absolute survivor. Master of his craft. Excellent. Thanks for everything

Agree with you on the smooth one looking better but the texture will hold up better.
The coconut oil joke(s) were hilarious!😂😂
Great video!
Thanks Dylan, I appreciate the kind words! Merry Christmas!
The work you do on bikes is next level
The only thing better than learning by your mistakes is learning by others mistakes. That why I love TH-cam.
Dude.. I didn't want to say anything about the tire but that's exactly right. Charles Law. As temp decreases so does pressure and vice versa. It got cold here in texas and by both tires were flat on my bike. Just pumped them up and good to go. Overzealous got cha like it has me and all of us before. Love the build so far man.
Admitting mistakes, we all make them too bad more people can't admit them. Hats off for doing the right thing! Also, love'n the build great job!
The little things in life absolutely priceless
Love the attention to detail. True mastery of the craft.
Your always inspiring man. Thanks for being the super cool and down to earth person you are. I can't wait to take possession of the RM....lol. Stay fresh!
Glad to see you doing great Cameron! The bike is sweet rm army can never go wrong!
Good idea on protecting the ignition and clutch covers I used to PPF my bikes years ago. Personally I'd have gone for a fancier colour and used clear PPF, but nice having that printer to hand.
DUDE MAKE THEM FOR ALL THE BIKES YOU'LL KILL IT! (The textured decals for all the bikes out)
Dude you definitely need to make those for the engine covers Game CHANGER! Can’t wait I will be definitely getting some when they are ready
Man your bikes and craftsmanship is amazing, dopeness and sick bro. Hope your doing good and keep optimizing Pryme.
Those decals are excellent, what a fantastic idea. Hate the thought of coating stuff and spending hours making it look perfect only to wreck it after two rides. Please print some more I just went to buy a set and they already sold out. You da man Cam!

This is the best xmas present i got!
Merry Christmas man!
@@CameronNiemela You to man!!!
those textured adhesives for the clutch/stator covers are tight AF! definitely want some for my RM

I have used the other tricks that you mentioned and this alignment tool has found that even these old tricks don't always align the forks every time. Great video and thanks for sharing this with us.
I’m glad I’m not the only popping tubes on a Monday 😂😂😂
So excited when a RM build video gets uploaded! Keep up the good work man and Merry Christmas!

Happy you found the info helpful! Thanks for checking out the video!
To err is human….great content as usual Cam , awesome attention to detail is a win in my book 🏁

i think the guards turned out really good nice
What a great Video! Merry Christmas Cameron, Wishing you a very happy healthy 2023 and Beyond!
You work is on point. Such detail
Merry Christmas to the Niemela family
Merry Christmas and a happy new year👍🏻
I for sure want some frame grip tape. Soon I hope to order some of your abrasive wheels. I have a bench buffer and stand on the way!
Great idea cam I think you may be on to something, would be helpful for hard to find covers that have no aftermarket option.
Gosh dang man! That bike is lookin sharp!
Thanks brother! She’s gonna be a beaut in a few weeks
I never knew about aligning the forks thanks for the info im going to add this to my service
Really nice fixes bro. Love the rough covers and frame guards. i think, maybe, the sticker on the inner fork leg may cause a leak but, who knows. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

This awesome, I’ve been looking for a 2 stroke project for weeks now and just can’t seem to find one
Have a Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 🎅

I wx
That's amazing idea for the covers I was thinking maybe just some clear also work pretty good
Those stickers are a great idea mate!
Cam awesome job on the bike it’s coming along quite well! Question what kind of improvements do the phat heads really make in your opinion? Power increase? cooling the cylinder for sure I’d think ?
What suggestions do you have for a rebuilt engine that has been sitting for a year ? I wouldn’t want to blow up a engine due to putting it on the shelf for so long 😊
You should make and sell those clutch and stator cover stickers for different models. I'd definitely buy!
Merry Christmas to you and your family
Excellent life advice cam happy holidays
Woooo Cam! Always looking 💯 someone gonna get a banger!
What is your compressor set up for your blasting cabinet? Also, how come you didn't solder those kill switch wires and then shrink wrap them? Great job though, love your vids!

@@CameronNiemela you're welcome Cameron, sounds good looking forward to when you drop them on your site and thank you I hope you had a good Christmas
Merry Christmas !! Cam and Family....

Can you please make some for 05 kx125 !!
Yes, I'll definitely be making some for all bikes!
Bro, I've been running stickers on my fork inners for ages now. I knew the trend would catch on 🤣
It's the secret to ultra plush suspension
The powervalve vent hoses are so random on the RM's, my 2004 has 3 vents, Camerons bike has 1, others have 2.
I've never seen printed designs on grip tape before, pretty sick
Is that acetone you dip them in before painting?
Looking awesome keep up the great work
Merry braapmas everyone.
Really curious to see how those engine cover decals would hold up against boots with a steel toe cap like the SG12s!
That's what I'm worried about! The steel toe boots are brutal on everything
god I'm loving this build. I would for certain consider purchasing this bike as opposed to "winning". I'm signed up but, congratulations to
the lucky bastard who does win!👊🏼
are you going to do a rebuild on the Honda Cr125 in the future like you did on the Cr 250
You build a mean bike!
Question, are you picking the bike winner from someone who buys from the store or a subscriber?
Nice video bro! Thanks for sharing!

Speaking of Quality works that is Cameron. Greatings from Filipino fan. Happy Holiday sir
Just chillin watching this video after Christmas dinner man. Hope you and your family have a great day Cam and get some R&R too. RM is looking awesome as usual. Love your set up there and the results you get every time. Would love that RM in my shed for 2023 VMX racing. Keep it pinned dude and all the best 👍 👌
I appreciate that Danny! Hope your Christmas was great!

Espectacular Cameron.
Your job is beautifol.
Merry cristmas.
What would you recommend to coat foot pegs if you do not have access to Cerakote?
Powder coat is great too
I need one for my sons 2015 yz 450 or buy a new cover not sure its the only part on the whole bike that dont look fresh
Dude just came up with a nice ass thing to sell, I would buy it bro forsure
Dude I'd definitely buy those textured engine covers if you sold them!
What kind of printer do you need for that printing?
I use waterproof grease on all my tubes never get flats and never pop tubes during installs.
Ya i commented that about the kill switch and im shure i wasnt the only one
I would love engine covers like that unfortunately I have a YZ125. I would encourage you to make them for more bikes.
I'll definitely be making some for all bikes!
Soo exited for the post
Do You use rimlocks on your wheels?
Yoo Cameron, i miss the uplaods man, is the next vid here soon, are you alright?
Nice fix cam need to do some work on my bike. :) have a good holiday.
Alex from sweden :)
Bom dia amigo uma boa ideia colocar adesivos resistentes nas partes que a pessoa encosta, vou ver se consigo colocar na minha tbm abraços,
Brasil 🇧🇷🤙
What happened to Matt Bergers channel? I’ve searched everywhere and can’t find any of his visor his channel!!??
Feliz natal para todos!
I would definitely buy some of those grip covers if u eventually make them for yamahas
