rm 250 are an absolute power house! they are 2 stroke which makes them very fast and they are a very respectable bike, hope you make the trade and look them up on utube they probably have some good pics on there of them.

thats not a 93, thats 89-92 style. 93-95 was a lil diff. it looks more like a 90, 91 and 92 has cheeta style seat covers and graphics, 1990's were blue frames and graphics like that. either way it looks nice and clean so i'd trade.

nice bike. just check for obvious things, bearings, bushings, tranny shifts good, etc.

i got a 2000 and i love it. Ive had it for years and it always starts right up and runs like a bat out of hell. Never had to be rebuilt. most reliable thing ive ever owned.

gotta love 2 strokes. that thing is nearly 20 years old. bet you wont find many running modern thumpers in 20 years.

I had a friend with a 1999 and it was spot on carb to motor...which translated to a snappy very responsive motor. The front brakes were outstanding and it carved a corner like Turkey dinner. All it had was a FMF and shorty with a rejet, it was light and had light switch power...not so snappy that it couldn't be trail ridden by no means. It just seem fanning the clutch would straighten out any rutty situation.

Well the guy is jerking me around, so I might just go with plan B and pick up a 89 yz 250. Kinda like the red and white color combo on them bikes anyways.
