I own a 89 kx 250 from new, raced once, by me, then parked it behind the sofa for 32 years, pulled it out the other day, new fuel and brake fluid, third kick and she lives ❤, this almost mint bike has slept too long 🇬🇧🍺. Keep up the good work over there 🤛🏻.

I had opne of those in 89 for some reason that KX had extreme balls i had a half a dozen KXs the motor reminded me of riding my Dads Maico when he wasnt looking and I had a friend to hold me up while i kicked it over... I was 12 but that KX motor was something else

Guys I love watching yalls videos, I was born in 1972 and rode bikes my whole life. I started on a 1985 yz80, then moved to the rm125 in 87, then the kx250 in 88. I'm in Alabama and me and my cousin both raced 88. kx250 over in Bremen GA for years. I love the 1980s 2strokes and back then you never would have convinced me a 4stroke would be the future, but what did I know lol!!
