Kick a** two strokes!

That generation KX was so good looking... Even better when it was wide open with a big ol' 47 on the front and sides.

We got a lil time to tune up and go over the 2001 RM250 and the 1997 YZ125 
and I got to ride both of them over the summer 
It was a BLAST !!

199´s Cernic Suzuki rm 250 full factory bike) under Cernics tent 2005.

1993 RMX250

Chad Reed Factory Yamaha yz 250 - 2004 championship bike.

I'm having way too much fun on this 125. I'm neglecting my 4-strokes.

Narcissistic contribution - my ‘92 CR250

The amount of fun I had on these bikes as a kid was something special.  I eventually moved up to the bigger bike 125cc but my funnest times on dirt bikes were on these mini’s 

That’s one of my favorite bikes of all time.  I was able to buy a used PC built KX125 from that era.  It was a 1997 purchased in 2001.  One of the best bikes I’ve ever ridden!  

I've never been one for nickel/platinum pipes, but that looks right at home on that beauty.

I think the nuclear red, white and blue has that retro 90's US vibe perfectly and the platinum pipe somehow goes really well with it.

Clean and very nice dude, enjoy 👍

200SX, '06 chassis and '17 YZ250F frontend. STIC Super X carb. Has my '22 YZ250F collecting dust. 

That’s clean! The 200 always intrigued me! How does the motor feel? It’s a 125 bottom end if I remember right? Just a different rod.

Thanks, I picked it up nearly NOS condition.

Power wise, I think it has 38hp peak stock. Torque is between 125 & 250. On the track, no short shifting, ride it like a 125. On the trail, ride more 250-ish. 

What makes it 'bad arse' is the upgrades and STIC carb. It keeps my 22 yz250 parked as a backup. It has better power, front grip, just as stable, only not as planted(heavy). Guys that rode it stated that it is faster than their 98 kx250 and 22 fc350! Anyway, it does pull or hang with bigger bores. It prepared me well for my 24 300sx in the hot map mode and BTW the 300 doesn't make my forearms ache for 3 days...at my speed.

That was a stunning bike, I love the blue rims.

I thought they made the 200SX in 2003 and 2004?

i looked online but it’s hard to find any for sale. I saw they made the 200 XC until 2009.

is it easy to find parts for yours?

im wondering how was Broc Sellars 200 was

Correct, 03 & 04 years only. The 06 chassis, fork and later shock upgrades...game changer. Young guys hit me up for a sell...No chance.

No issue for parts. Different crank and rod from the 125. HotRods and ProX have make cranks and rods. BTW, the 200 range was discontinued in 2015 and the last two or so years were estart. '08 I think it switched over to the 250 chassis. So, older models have a lower seat height.

All it takes to get SX like power is the 125/150 CDI box and an SX style pipe and head specs.

I think they also built one for Brit James Dobb for the old US Open race in Las Vegas too.

Stock power is quite mellow compared to the mentioned STIC Super X carb. The mid hit moves down to a tick above idle. First thing I hear from test riders is 'Wow, wow, wow and You ride it like this?'. 

Another 199-Pastrana. 

His insanely cool X-games rm 250 2006 FMX bike.

Yes it was a cool flare, as Ricky was on the makita graphics under the main Suzuki tent with the classical yellow rims. But indeed Mr. Travis always had cool themes on his bikes.

Kinda similar to Larroco who also had a factory bike under the FC tent, different style outside what the Hondas own main tent.

New england legend KJ from vetmxdn on a perimeter frame kx500 build, i believe a gentleman Steve wells from kx500tech built.  If anyone has more pics from vetmxdn they should throw them up ! Definitely some cool builds 

Just finished watching the video of Searle vs Russian Bob and wow that was awesome! Give it a watch if u haven't. Kudos to docwob for getting some these bikes built and helping organize this event I'm sure it was alot to get it all done. Would love to make the trip across the pond to come watch next year! 

How do they put a 500 top end on and 4T bottom end?
