I decided it was time to change the packing on my RM 250 silencer. After disassembling the silencer, I noticed something odd (for me anyway) about the silencer.
The endcap is riveted, but the opposite end had small bolts, so I disassembled the silencer at this point. Much to my surprise, the baffle tube is connected to the end can and not the other end. This is the first one of these I have ever seen this way. I was able to clean the baffle with the silencer cover still around it, but I was just wondering if this is the norm for 250 rm's? I can see where re-assembly will be easier because you wont have to try and get the baffle tube to line up with the endcap, because it is already connected, but I still have never seen this configuration before.
