Good looking Suzuki. Brings back memories. My first bike was 1987 RM 250 and it had that Tecnosel seat as well.

You're welcome. You did a good job restoring it, considering in wich condition you got it. Well done.
You have to post some riding pics too.

Funny coincidence that 14. It was the previous owner's racing number though, not mine.

I talked to Macolmedo about these bikes a while back.. Great looking bikes! If you decide to take a Colorado vacation and want to bring the OEM bike I would love to buy it.

Quick question
What paint did you use for the engine and frame and do you have the paint part numbers.
As usual another amazing rebuild by yourself
