Very rare to find a raw pipe for this model, getting harder to find any pipe for these bikes....have you tried Mastercross? Last time I looked he had some works pipes, not cheap. You can get a nice raw finish with a stock pipe, or get a plated pipe and have the plating sand blasted off & then scotchbrite, blue welds, whatever you are looking for,...I looked for a raw pipe for my 92RM 250 for a long time, could not find one. Bought a new Pro Circuit plated pipe, I just wanted to make sure I had a good pipe.

sandman768 ,I do have the stock pipe which its fixable ,but I want a newer pipe, a works type of pipe , I have contacted Master cross they don't have one at this moment ,how ever I have good luck with Dyno port ,and DPR , THANKS BR8ES, Dyno Port have several choices of pipes and silencers with is good and I think great quality haven't made my mind which one to get !
FMF does still make one for the 1989 Suzuki 250 rm which I understood that also could be used on 1990 but FMF categorically said that it won't fit the 1990 model !
on eBay there is a pro circuit pipe for a 1991 Suzuki 250 rm for sale there
was wondering what are the difference between the 1990 pipe and 1991 pipe ?

Good eye! It is a 92 but replicated to be a 1990 Larry Ward replica.

The 89-92 RMs were one of the best looking dirt bikes ever. Looks good even today.. with a flatter seat/tank it wouldn't be that far off from modern scoots.

I will have to disagree. Even with a flatter seat, they would still look a lot better. :-)
