The 1997 RMX 250S comes well-equipped right from your dealer, for either off-road racing and/or trail riding; perhaps even a bit over equipped. We're talking here about the EPA legal exhaust system that includes a clunky double-walled pipe and heavy, power sapping steel silencer/spark arrestor. | |||

The 1997 RMX will likely be the final year of this, the first generation of the model line. Characteristic throughout that run, this year's RMX continues to provide a well suspended platform in EPA legal trim. Top racers will no doubt loathe the compromises to quietness, and the resulting added expense of aftermarket pipes, silencers and RM head gaskets. | |||
