Here is my baby. It is a RM 250 2009, bought brand new this spring and I can tell you that it was a great bargain compared to buying a thumper. Completely stock except some small personal changes (Handlebars, smaller rear sprocket, etc.), and I'm just loving this bike. It is by far the best bike I've ever owned, easy to maintain and I'm having a blast everytime I'm riding that thing! I'm currently racing in the B-class here in Finland, and this thing aint giving any advantage to 450's, thats for sure. I'm hoping to make it to the A class this or next year, and I'm for sure going to run the 2-banger there also, but we might have to do some modifications for the engine to keep it running there with "big-boys" riding the GP tuned thumpers up front... But as far as that goes I'm not worried at all, I think that 250 2-stroke has tons of potential to STILL tighten it up, 4-strokes have nothing on us!
