‼️ If you guys want to see some bad ass RAW photos I took of your bike this week… here’s a link! THEY ARE SPICY, MAKE SURE TO BRING A CHANGE OF UNDERWEAR‼️ drive.google.com/drive/folders/1R57uk4KZ1UapuHvtPyb1k39G3ledrLmQ
Pipe Envy Is Real ...🤣 and just about everything about this build is Crazy Over the Top....The old 80's works bikes didn't have this much Attention to Detail....Great Job you are doing with your builds, give-aways and content and let's not forget bringing Uncle Tony onboard as well....Killing it !!!🙂👍
Hahaha you could say “Steve has a nice pipe!”. Thanks for being a part of all the videos these last few years my man. I appreciate your viewership and engagement. It does mean a lot to me. MX Skill Shack to really start cooking too! Tony and I are stoked
Charles, this is the sickest 2 stroke Suzuki I've ever seen. Absolute dream bike I wanna rip on to the best of my abilities and at the same time not get it dirty. I love your vision and meticulous attention to detail. I have no choice but to pick up couple more entries to hopefully be the winner of this gem 💎
Man, thank you so much for not only your kind words, but your support with the contest! I can’t do it without your support, just not the same. I hope you win this bad boy, the odds are definitely in your favor! Also, I’ve got one more super special thing coming your way for this bike. I’ll film my new video as soon as it gets here…. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate, and you
Once again, you and the crew killed it on the suspension. Can't wait to see the final product and dream how this would look sitting in my garage...GG and good luck everybody.
I haven't been a suzuki fan since racing superminis but MAN this bike is making me LOVE Suzukis, you're making the bike how suzuki should have done it!!! Keep it up BRAAAAPPPP!!👊✊️
Ahh hell yeah! Music to my ears! I’ve got one more big surprise for you guys coming up on this one. Then somebody’s taking it home! Thanks a ton for watching. I really appreciate it 🙏🫵
Charles, you know I was really looking forward to trying to win the Yz125 build, but bro, this build is insanely beautiful 😍 and I just threw my hat in the ring because of this video. Love the attention to detail 👌. Keep up the great content, you rock.
Really appreciate you joining the party! I love doing this, especially for everyone else. As for the Yamaha, I hope you do that one too! That is a completely different company, with a different entry structure. ($10 a month for anything we build at MX Skill Shack) Regardless… I know money doesn’t grow on trees and I really appreciate you helping me keep mXrevival contests like this going!
I love those Suzukis and the older 89 thru 92 those bikes look and run so awesome. I did some big step up jumps on a 92 RM 250 built for Supercross in a clay pit in central Florida in the early 2000,s those bikes are awesome
Hey man, I came across your channel 2-3 months ago and have skimmed through all your videos. I was wondering if you would ever start another RM250AF or maybe even an RM125AF build. My buddy has a '22 RMZ250 with a blown motor, and I was thinking of maybe buying it and putting a 125 motor in it. That's how I stumbled across your channel.
Damn bro the black on black is some fancy stuff, actually really loving that look, might have to do that on a future build. This is one of the baddest rm250 I've ever seen in my life brother. You and Tony really been killing it lately and seeing the progress has been awesome. Best wishes to you and your family homie, keep on grinding 💪. I need to win a set of those dunlop sticker decals when dunlop does the weekly giveaway.
Came out so good! I do hope you try it someday. And Thank you, making them bad for you! As you know! Thank you for the compliment about Tony and I at MX Skill Shack too. We are really starting to find our stride over there and get really excited about how things are going for us with that new company. Shoot me an email, I’ve got some tires stickers for you
Hahaha ain’t that how it goes!? Things for sure, will never stop spending money on these things! Thanks for the compliments, stoked you’re building one also 📈
Unreal is not the words to explain this RM - 😮 it is the the coolest build 😎 I have ever seen !! I don't remember if I bought my tickets 🎟️ yet on this one but am going too today !! Gotta try on a bike like this - can't win if you don't enter !! I just got back from.a couple practice days at millville again and had a great ride with one crash lol say hi to Uncle Tony for me 🏁
Mikey, you are too awesome! I hope riding was epic, I’m out at the track right now too. Couple soil samples first thing in the morning, but I’m ready for more 😂 thank you dude!
Atta boy! I would first recommend whatever your budget will allow. If you want something nice and reliable, OEM is great. Most of the aftermarket clutches are just OEM quality. If you want something performance based, that will get more power to the ground - go with a Rekluse Torq-Drive pack, or Hinson pack. Hope that helps and thanks for the sub!
@@mxrevival yes thank you it definitely does help just wasn't sure on what to decide on, i plan on having around a 7k-10k budget sense i'm only 15 trying to start a lawn care business and have to cut grass to be able to buy the parts so hopefully i get a lot of customers next season and im able to afford the things i want done lol. thanks for the help!
Hi, Charles/fellow subs... Have a quick one for you. On the back of the engine cases there are 2 bushes that the pivot bolt goes through. Would the ones off an 02 rm250 fit the 01 rm250. As there is nothing listed for an 01? Appreciate any help.
Probably identical. The fact that the swing arm main pin from my 2006 model worked and shared a matching part number with my 1989 model tells me that the diameter of the bushings you speak of would be the same. Definitely go for it. Worst case, take your messed up ones to a Machine Shop and have them replicated. Recently did that only 97 model. You will figure it out either way!
@mxrevival Much appreciated Charles. You the goat 👊 and there's nothing left of the original ones had to cut through them from the dreaded stuck pivot bolt 😪
first i done my frame black .then i went yellow now its back to being a black framed 1989 rm 250 looks better ,, its done in a puprle pink splatter graphics , still on original tryes , they are still newish 3 quarter tead and are as hard as a rock ,, being an idiot i broke the clutch hub so got on in the post w,a,p,i,t,a . having trouble with my tune after the carby kit and the power valve reset , sure il get it right one day or il get a new carb, no power down low but hitting at the top of the gear range , yours is NICE ,,
They really do, bro, you nailed it. Nice and dark. Remind me to hit you up about some slight revisions on tolerance next week! Minor stuff. You’re the man. 🙌
Need to go back for around two. The problem with vapor is that, no matter how late you go it always folds some of the back down. And you have to vapor hardly enough to make them shine, so a bit of a back-and-forth procedure. Especially on the fins that have already been weakened in the past. They just get more and more frail. But I think we’re still doing all right 😂
I want to win the bike because it is awesome and it's not even finished yet. I DON'T want to win the bike because, what am I gonna do with it? It's WAY too nice to ride 🤣. It would be a fixture in the living room 🤣
It’s always such a double edged sword! The further along I get in the build process, the more I go “damn this is going to be a tough one to scratch” 😅 it gets old and it happens on every single Build! I hope you win, so you can do whatever you choose with it! Thanks for watching!
Well, it would certainly seem that way to someone who has never ran one. I understand your cut & dry approach. I’ll leave you with some questions… -How much do you think a bike like this costs me to build? -Where does the money come from? -How many months of planning coordinating will I muscle through without making a cent along the way (lining up sponsors, etc?) -During those months of work, what do you think the average amount will be that’s left over (out of your quick figure?) Divide it by weeks or days to find out my actual hourly compensation if you’d like. I’ll answer the first question: -The bike would cost an unconnected person about $25K - $35K to build. It’s taken years to get this far, to do something fun for you guys, for a pretty marginal financial return. Hope that sheds some light on the situation 😉
True to a degree! All past bikes have fallen under the previous verbiage. It still works. Dually for items being given away in the TH-cam videos. It can be a tough line to dance on sometimes, known best by those who are actually doing it. Thanks for watching & for checking out the site!
@@alexjohnson9293 Mate, it's a raffle. A giveaway is no cost for entry. He's getting paid far more than $15k if all the tickets sell, it's worded in this manner due to legal constrictions. I don't have any issues with a raffle, but call it what it is.

I can’t stop coming back to look at all the colors on this bike. I would 100% ride this thing in a woods race.
Wow the black on black is absolutely beautiful bro. Amazing choices on the sickness
Thanks, dude! Really pumped that you like it!
That shock 😳😳😍😍😍
Man this thing is like a work of art!
that black on black on black shock is super trick.. badass
I am rebuilding some Showas for my CR125. Man would all those coatings really look sick. This thing is sick Charles! Amazing work as always brother.
Awesome dude! I hope you have fun doing it. And thank you, for the kind words and for hanging with me on all these videos year after year
Dude that sucker is minted out! Super clean. Nice job man. 👍🏼
Thanks a ton! I’m having a blast building this one for you guys. Best of luck if you enter!
Beautiful, coming together nicely. Cheers!
Thank you!!

Dude that bike is so sick but damn that rear shock is the shit . That is my favorite parts
I know you love the blacked out bits, Zinc Master 😉
I they bring back Straight Rhythm, this would be the perfect bike for Kenny.
Oh god that was THE BEST even ever!!!
I Went ahead and entered. This is such a beautiful machine.
Bad ass Zuki, coming along nicely but you are costing my money as I build my 04 RM!
Hahaha ain’t that how it goes!? Things for sure, will never stop spending money on these things! Thanks for the compliments, stoked you’re building one also 📈
Museum piece ✨️ 👌🏻
Where can I buy the gold safety wire?

i just bought a rm125 last night and i plan on doing a full tear down and rebuild eventually, what clutch system would you recommend?

If you want something performance based, that will get more power to the ground - go with a Rekluse Torq-Drive pack, or Hinson pack.

Thanks dude! Keep that sweet old girl ripping!
Has anyone seen how the black zinc resists corrosion compared to regular zinc coating?
Corrosion resistance will be about the same. But it does scratch easier and alternative actually noticing it.
Black on black on black is golden
Oddly, that works and is 100% true 😆
Sweet love my Rm 😂
Keep her pinned, dude!
Black an yellow makes a happy fellow
I like it!
😮 I never thought it would be possible to build a dirt bike that actually is too nice, to be taken to the dirt 🤌
Nah that doesn’t exist. People ride 50 year old vintage MX bikes on dirt still.
Haha huge thanks dude! It will be totally up to the winner, and I’m excited to find out either way
Blocks go perfect with the bike. I have one other set of those contrast cut black RM axle blocks for sale if anybody want them 🔥
They really do, bro, you nailed it. Nice and dark. Remind me to hit you up about some slight revisions on tolerance next week! Minor stuff. You’re the man. 🙌
killer bee.
🐝 ‼️
What ever happened to using the flat nose jewelers pliers on the rads man? I thought you were extra psycho with it

My man 🫡
Medhurst Trace
Is it ever beautiful 😍
😍🫵🙏
Back when Rodney Smith and Steve Hatch were factory riders...😮 their RMs weren't THAT nice 🕵️
Kind of cool all the aftermarket options we have now. We are spoiled!
Things freekin TRICK
Ahh thanks dood!!
