I just got a 2003 RM-250, the bike is in amazing condition. There aren't even any scuffs on the engine covers where your toes would rub. The owner said he only put 5 hours on the bike, and it looks like it has even less time on it.
I need to replace the stock springs, forks and shock, to better suit my weight. I am 220 pounds, with out gear on. I ride as aggressively and hard as I can for my age. I mainly ride MX.
Thanks, Steve.

Your recommended fork spring rate is....0.4584kg/mm
those were the listings from MX-Tech's spring rate generator when inputting your info. hope it helps.

Thanks MXSparks,
Went there yesterday, but couldn't get into the database. I have been trying to get to the site today, but the page won't load. Could you post the link to the page, I need to order springs for my son too.
Thanks again, Steve.
