Hey y'all, wanted to share a few pics. Not to much of a rebuild as I picked this 2006 RM250 in very good condition, and truthfully before i knew of this awsome forum. 18 years off of MX and total knee replacement a year ago and i decided to jump back in. Albeit very carefully. Not many before pics, but a few post new graphics and complete suspension revalve and springs + some bolt on pieces. Hope to connect out at the track if any of y'all are in Texas. Thx.. SK

Awesome bike. Super clean! Doesn't look like its done a lot, you did well there.

Interested to see how you like the steering damper? Have you ridden it with and without it to compare?

Truthfully I haven't even ridden up the street yet. Figured tomorrow was the day, but rain and cold forcasted for Central Texas. Not the best first ride in quite a while conditions. I expect it works well as I know they have a rep for turning great, but head shaking a bit at speed. I literally got it home and sent the suspension out. Maybe getting some new triple clamps as the front still looks a bit off to me. I'll certainly give you my $.02 on the scotts/Ohlins.
