SUZUKI RM250 BLOWS

[novergetenhea]

should ahve put anti freeze in it, not just water, anti freeze will not only not freeze but also retain more heat since it has a higher hear capacity than normal water (eg.g) it can go to 120 C

[KARATExxCHUCK]

I went riding a couple of days ago and as i was riding my bike just died. i Took it home, took off the cyclinder head and i had drops of water in it. So, i cleaned it out, put the head back on and now wen i started it it makes a loud knocking sound either from the cylinder or the casing. im not sure where and im afraid to start it up again to find where the sound is coming. Can you help me out and figure out whats going on? Thanks

[jasonmccoll]

@KARATExxCHUCK You need to take the whole cylinder off and inspect the piston rod and crank It sounds like a rod or crank bearing or piston breakage problem caused from the coolant getting inside.You can take the flywheel side cover off and twist it left and right to feel slop in the rod and up and down to feel if the crank bearings are sloppy But something is definitively wrong if its knocking loud Good luck

[gcam831]

@KARATExxCHUCK I had the same problem on my yz250. The crank went to shit which caused the knocking sound. I got a new crank, piston, bearings and seals online and rebuilt the motor both top and bottom end. I would really check your crank and rod.

[RoBtHeQuAdEr]

@KARATExxCHUCK Is it a 2 or 4 stroke?

[KARATExxCHUCK]

@RoBtHeQuAdEr It's a 2 Stroke. 2002 RM 250

[RoBtHeQuAdEr]

@KARATExxCHUCK Oh I was gonna say if it was a 4 stroke valves, but try checking your piston sleeve, might be moving with the piston.

"Did you get the poom?" Lol

[BassTracker85]

"did you hear that" 'pooom' ?!

"of course i did im sitting on it!"

[shootem241]

thats what u git for ridin a sizuki

[munez95]

thats fuking sick

[gymkhanadog]

Wow, what a moment to have the camera on! That sound was crazy, as was the rider's immediate reaction of "WTF? How did I let the magic smoke out!" lol

This is actually one reason why I'll probably never have a dirtbike where I have to rely on A: Starter w/no kick start (stupid feature), or B: Water cooled. Oh, and C: Fuel Injection. The more stuff you stick on em, the less reliable and more fragile they get!

[HumboltRidazer]

Well that blows.

[TheCordog]

Lol i almost bought a RMZ 250.. but i think a KTM sx250f suits me better

[TheEOGeek]

that reminded me of jackass, remember "did it poof" lol

[dirtrider1911]

Get a yamaha!!! U won't have another problem agan

[uMadBroBro]

@dirtrider1911 Damn right, cause the Yamaha will be where it belongs. In the scrap pile

[superzmanslammer]

ohh shit santa stop hiding behind the camera ! :)

[haydenc991]

is that an RMX250, looks really similar to my 1998 RMX250

[mot04l1fe]

[Hondarawpower13]

Got to love them two strokes <3

[raulington]

maybe buy a cooler dude, its pretty helpful for enduro stuff like that ;)

[mazdagine]

go the rm 250 i love mine smoks all my mates 450s

[JOHNNYGIX]

Didn't blow up, just the coolant line blew off. Could've just been a loose clamp

[jasonmccoll]

@JOHNNYGIX Yeh but it wasnt a loose clamp.It was a split hose and made a great "PooF" Wouldnt you agree???

[TheOldstvital]

@jasonmccoll was there something wrong with the rad cap?

[JZWrecker16]

Break and bash that bike on youtube!

[TerriHogan1]

[4everyoursbaby227]

All suzukis suck! Yamaha all the way!!!

[NotMovieMaker]

@4everyoursbaby227 Uhm....Ok....

[Tombstone416]

@4everyoursbaby227 no need to be a brand fanboy, I've got a YZ but not biased towards Yamaha, They are both made in Japan at the end of the day anyway, Only really dislike Kawasaki's cause they are the bikes I've had most realiability issues with.

[urbanmustang]

[MrBarnDog]

a honda would have eaten everything in sight

[chance2228]

"hey man lets keep my bike running after it just blew up and take a video of it getting worse" lol

[jasonmccoll]

@chance2228 Since Im the one who was on the bike at the time I can tell you I turned the bike off immediately after the puff.The sizzling sound after that point is water boiling as it spills out onto the expansion pipe.I sure as hell didnt say to my friend "hey man lets keep my bike running after it just blew up and take a video of it getting worse".Did you not see the video was already rolling as the hose blew....We where lucky to have caught that on tape and share it with you.TRY AGAIN BUD

[2010gnccracer1]

[timw1959]

Oh man,you have to show that in super slow motion!!

[leafyism]

Haha Liquid cooling fail.

[inlinefreak07]

LMFAO Did you get the poof? Nice

[jasonmccoll]

It happens when the hoses are pld and the walls are thin.I had it back in action in about fifteen minutes later, used a section of garden hose and the damn thing has lasted over a year now!LOL

[suzukiholdenman]

Hahaha I've never seen it happen like that before! I heard people get zip ties (cable ties) and cover the whole hose with them to stop that happening

[thecatinthehat111]

haha did u get the poof? nice! lol

[jasonmccoll]

@thecatinthehat111 I would have been really disapointed if he hant!: )

[corizone123]

That was kinda cool. I'm glad it was an easy fix for ya.

[limrski1]

what year is that bike?

[MrFitz424]

poof!

[TheRmcrazyman]

You just blew my son's mind!lol

[wolfgang29]

haha holy shit

[TheProudAussie]

ive been riding for 10 years and ive never seen that happen before.

[Master7770]

@TheProudAussie Its what happens when you run old worn out radiator hoses. It can happen on a car too. People don't stop to think that those hoses have to hold pressure so when they get old and dried out they need replacing.

[TheDirtRider101]

Ya when i saw that i was like balls!! There goes the RM!

[TheDirtRider101]

I think the radiator hose blew up right??

[jasonmccoll]

@TheDirtRider101 @kxdirtrider85 @4thedirtbikemaniac4  @DirTyOhGee @insanegeniuses @MuayThai8548 @walston410 @dariocrr2trider @Evolution2810 @maxisname No worries guys It was just a hose that popped, It was old and just stretched until it let go! Easy fix, Its all good and I rode it today. Thanks for all the concern and leaving comments I hope everyone is getting out riding! Taker easy everyone.

[DIRT21000]

@TheDirtRider101 how long use that bike????

[kxdirtrider85]

what happened?

[4thedirtbikemaniac4]

WOW thats was so weird! Id be freakin if that happened to me!

[DirTyOhGee]

DANG!!!! That was an epic camera shot!!!!

[insanegeniuses]

POOF! That looked wild!

[MuayThai8548]

that was epic dude just epic lol

[walston410]

haha dam dude well at least its a cheap fix

[dariocrr2trider]

did you get the poof!! lol

[Evolution2810]

man that was bad, was it just the hose that burst?

[maxisname]

HOLY HELL...i love your reaction...*just looks at camera*

[TheIdaho420]

HOLY HEAT BATMAN!

Hope its not something serious!

[timw1959]

Man I hope that never happens to me!

[bikercc]
