1998 Rm 250 Review

That year the rm was the weakest of the 250s and the weakest of any 250 mxer had been for years 38ish hp if i remember from the dirtbike magazine test. That world is traditionally dominated by european bikes like ktm and husqvarna but the suzuki rm 250 made its mark there between the efforts of randy hawkins rodney smith steve hatch and paul edmondson the rm or its blood brother the rmx captured 16 national championships in gncc enduro and hare scrambles. New 125 s in 97 99 and would keep 1 bike 2 seasons i raced the 98 250 nearly every weekend for 2 years in intermediate and then pro class and never had any breakdowns.

Suspension is awesome the bike really has a pretty modern feel to it and as long as everything is pretty fresh it s not going to feel dated compared to more modern 250 s i mean any 2000s japanese 250 s.

1998 rm 250 review.

New tires clutch plug and tranny fluid. Compared to the 95 rm the new motor ran much smoother and pulled over a wider range. He had the cr about 3 or 4 weeks before he traded it on a 99 rm 250 he still says the cr was the worst mx bike he has ever ridden and that his old 97 rm was the best bike he ever had and he is on his 5th rm 250 now so that says. If it looks like it was taken care of and dosent show alot of abuse im sure it would be a good bike just not a fast one compared to other 250 mxers.

History year country name frame engine 1982 north america name. The rm is steady torquey and mild. With its excellent clutch action and smooth shifting five speed the 96 rm mill was the best suzuki 250 power plant since 1988. In late 96 friend of mine bought a brand new 97 rm 250 which he must have put 300 hrs on over 2 years up to late 98 when he sold the rm and bought a new 99 cr 250.

The 98 rm makes power in the same basic window as the 1998 kawasaki kx250 but that s where the similarity ends. It lacked the holeshot ripping midrange blast of the cr250r but was more than competitive below the pro class. The clutch baskets also wore out fast. This has been a great bike for me if you goto the link above you can see i have put huge amounts of money into this bike because i plan to keep it for a very long time.
