Can anyone here tell me the distance of travel the front and rear suspension have on a 250R and a 200x? Have they increased dramatically for the 250R from 1982 to 1986? What about the 200x, has that suspension gotten any better from 83-87? How does the 200x match up with the Yamaha Blaster suspension wise? thanx

Can anyone here tell me the distance of travel the front and rear suspension have on a 250R and a 200x? about 2 inches larger on the 85-86 2500R compared to the 86/87 200x. Diameter is about 2 inches larger too!!


Have they increased dramatically for the 250R from 1982 to 1986? Yes, Dramatically.


What about the 200x, has that suspension gotten any better from 83-87? 86/87 were superior machines in all respects, Suspension did get a bit better for the 86-87's.


How does the 200x match up with the Yamaha Blaster suspension wise? 200x is far superior in the rear. Front cannot be compared =0)
