RM 250..
« on: December 08, 2008, 09:31:12 PM »
I just picked up an 01 RM 250 for a really good deal off of craigslist. I've never ridden a large 2 stroke before and this thing is brutal. It actually scares me. Are these things really that much faster than quads or is it just the wickedness of that 2 stroke that has me fooled ??? I guess I just have to get used to it but man, this thing is tough to ride.

Bikes scare me.

Once you get used to it, you'll be alright though. Just remember you can't stay on the throttle for long periods of time like a four stroke!
