    The early 90,s KX and RM,s are the best looking bikes made

      250s not the 125s they discontinued there 93 KX125 crankshaft all I wanted was a retro bike picked that bike up and blew the crank immediately 1700 American down the drain 250s way better

      Sveno Mick they really are, that’s all I’ve ever wanted to do was mess around with bikes. I’ve done that maintaining a fleet of 250cc Night Hawks , Rebels etc. but vintage and rare bikes are a different story.

    That’s not an original exhaust wrong shape for a 1990, and welds not like std.

    Doesn’t matter the year, all the older bikes had their high points and low points, but they are all special.

    Looks like it has UFO rad shrouds with original style graphic to me, slightly different colour to the tank or was it painted along with the frame?

    I've had many '90's era YZ's & CR's, but my Favorites was my *'91 KX250 'Green Meanie'* with Perimeter Frame & Anodised Blue Forks!! That thing was Savage!!
    Someone Needs to Whack a *KX500 Motor into* a *KX250 Steel Perimeter Frame!!* That would be my *Dream Machine* Sounds like a Real Cool Project for Kaplan Motorcycles, & get Jr to Race it!!👍👍

    Man I love your videos I,m 45 and I,m looking at getting my first kx was thinking 500 but I will start with a 250.The last bike I had was the RT360 73 the same one you guys have in your house got that when I was 12 I think going from a honda ct90 to a yamaha360 was awesome.....But yeah cant wait to get a kx it's going to be mean as. Thanks for teaching me about bikes and what too look out for when buying them.

    It's such a weird looking bike. The shroud plastic looks to the future, But the rear side panels are stuck in the 80's.

    This is an old video and I’ve been bitching about all the cool Kawi motorcycles. I finally bought myself a 1998kx250. So I’ll quit my bitching about it. I’m going to do 90,91 graphics, a blue seat and thinking about anodizing the forks blue too. I can’t wait.

  • @larndelaney7848
    @larndelaney7848 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey,trying to work out why my 1990 kx 250 has gold anodized forks? I've noticed,some are silver,blue or gold? I'm confused because this is the 2nd 1990 kx I've seen that has silver forks.Im wanting to know what colour my forks should be from factory for restoration purposes,if any one could help me clear this up it would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys

    • @RodDuster
      @RodDuster 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      USA KX 125 & 250 1990 had conventional forks, in 1991 silver like in video, other years can be made to work on them, in the UK / Europe it was gold 41mm Kayaba forks for 1990 and blue 43mm for 1991
