Well my 2015 Rmz 450 is still in the shed and i haven't rode my RM 250 since last spring since I've got the 450 and oh damn i forgot how much fun and light the damn thing is, best decision I've ever made was to not sell this bike.

Just picked up a 94 cr250 in decent shape on Friday. Gonna have some fun with swapping modern suspension on it. Can't wait. Love 2strokes! I'd add a pic but haven't taken the time to figure that out yet.

Not selling this one
Did you use combo wrenches as cabinet door handles?

If so. Nice touch.

Enjoying this early spring in Kamloops? We rode at Popkum today, it was super busy but track conditions were epic!

I recently switched from a sxf 450 to a sx 250. I thought I was going to land on the moon the first time I hit a jump on the smoker. The 250 is soooo much fun it makes me wonder why I ever bought a four-stroke, I doubt I'll buy another.

That was the first thing I noticed. When you have less weight, less speed is needed.

I think the only way i'll buy another 4 is if they get the weight down which KTM is doing. That 220lb is the magic number for me.

Just raced this thing yesterday and beat a pack of 250fs. Wind was the craziest I have ever ridden in, nobody could jump anything bigger than a ten foot double or you would get blown off the track! It might be down on power, but I love this bike, nothing turns better, not even my rm.

Will not ever sell this jewel. I will have to say I bought a 2012 crf 250. It's to much of a difference to compare each bike. But I have more fun on my 125.

That wind made for a crazy day of racing!

Damn I didn't realize you were out there, I would have said what's up to you! Oh well, just glad everyone made it through the day safe, Raining Yellow talked me into going out there and I'm glad he did, I had a lot of fun!
