Wish I still had mine, 1982. To be 16 yr old again.
Fastest 250 they'd ever thrown a leg across, if I recall correctly.
I had a hand-me-down RM80 of the same year, also tattered.
Here are a few pictures of me on my 82 BITD.

Pit Row
The brakes were high maintenance. One of my all time favorite bikes. Burned a lot of laps at Palm Ave. and rode Ocotillo. The '83 was better because Suzuki went to a larger fork diameter.
i'd match a ohlined shocked full floater against any rear suspension on offer today.
i put the last gen right side up forks off a cr250 on an 82 465, amazingly easy bike to ride
here i am thinking its good idea to start doing freestyle at 36. (i few close calls put an end to that malarky)
if they put that bike out today, air cooled 465/full floater, disc front cart forks for $4-5k i'd buy it tomoz.
