02 RM250 ride reports/bike reports?

[YZRIDER00]

I have 01 YZ250F right now and I looking into getting a 01 CR250 or 02 RM250.. But can you help me by posting the following things for the 02 RM250:

-How well it turned?

-Was it reliable?

-Does it FEEL light?

-Did you like or dislike anything on the bike?

-Also anything else that will help me pick between the bikes.


Thanks.

I've never ridden on 01 CR250 so I can't compare the two. My 02 RM250 turns very well, has been reliable , feels light as any other 250 2 stroke and has served me very well.

The 03 has a little more motor than the 02...... but otherwise, ditto.^^^

the RM is supposed to be everything that Chili stated: reliable, light, handles great. the suspension is on the soft side, so it appeals to the beginner-intermediate crowd, which is about 85% of dirt bikers( pulled that estimate out of the air :) ).
