Not an 89 but my 90. I always liked the stock look of these years. Looks like you have a good bike to start with!

To this day, the 1990 RM's were some of the best looking MX bikes of all time. I love the "less is more" graphics from the bikes in this era.

I dig the look of these. It definitely compliments the era.

I agree completely. All of the bikes from that era have such a cool look.

Man, I love a nice restored stock look or modified with era correct parts. I'm really concerned how this bike is gonna turn out. I'll follow along though, for entertainment purposes.
