this is a vintage bike discussion group, so I would guess that everyone here has had the pleasure or displeasure of owning a bike that hadnt been properly...
Good advice! I never even TOUCH the kickstarter of a machine (except in as much to determine it isn't seized) until I have done the following (and I follow...
OK I'm going to check this thing out on Saturday morning. Some of these things are going to be impossible to do b4 i buy the bike, but i WILL ask him to let me...
Naturally you can't do all that before buying, but be sure to before you try taking a ride. I would recommend calling a Suzuki shop or looking online for that...
The RM takes a B8ES NGK plug . Ride the bike to make sure it shifts out ok . kg4izw <kg4izw@...> wrote: OK I'm going to check this thing out on Saturday...
it does NOT take a b8es plug. according to my NGK catalog (I am an NGK dealer) 1992-1995 RM250's use an R4118S-8 plug. Also known by stock number, 3236, it...
That's what I thought. The RM's will fire and run on other plugs, but over time they do damage to the electronics. There's an artical somewhere on one of the...
Check out this pic I found on the net! Uploaded to Photos (redneck8) What the heck is a Suzuki ER? It looks like a circa 1980 TS185, or a DS185. It obviously...
The ER185 was a rename on the old TS185 with minor updates. Suzuki continued with them until the early nineties here in OZ. They were pretty cheap on memory...
That sounds like a Champion plug # , which I would not run in a lawnmower . I also sell NGK plugs and run a B8ES in my '95 RM250 ! ( which I think is sold ) ...
Right you are about the right "type" of plug . With the CDI style ignitions that the RMs have , it's not reccomended to run Resistor type plugs . To make it...
OK,this is my 1st saturday off sense last sept. If my "honey do" isn't other worldly,I'm going to steal a few minutes in the basement just to see if my bikes...
i believe that NGK and the manufacturer ( Suzuki in this case ) make recommendations for a reason. I am not an engineer, so, short of changing heat ranges...
OK, I went and saw the ?1995?(where's the date stamp on this thing) RM250 today and i took with me a cheap temporary NGK B8ES with me just in case. When I got...
The B8EGV is, I believe, a gold paladium v tip cousin to the ES. In my industry, we dont see a LOT of that plug, just a little. I am told that the plug will...
... from you guys on my current problem. I have 1980 RM125 that has been giving me fits for about the last year and a half. I began having problems after a...
I got my book out . You are kinda right . That # is the new NGK # . What I was going by was the service update bulletin sent out by Suzuki that said not to use...
The B8EGV will not hurt your engine . Same heat range as the ES . The 1st thing you need to do is to dump the weedeater gas out ! Then , you'll have to take...
Ok , the ES will not hurt the PVL . Have you checked your reeds ? If there's a gap , chip or a crack , then replace them . Also , I have had a recent similar...
By the way , the gas/oil should be mixed at 32:1 ( 4 oz./gal. of gas ) . lee buchanan <lbprowheel@...> wrote:The B8EGV will not hurt your engine . Same...
Now I need a manual for my 1992-1995(still dont know) RM250. The question is whether to get the factory Suz manual or get a Clymers or other manual. The...
When I went to the new model service seminar on that model, we were told the reason for the weird and expensive NGK plug was that the engineers had determined...
Hmmmm . The resister plugs are made to not interfere with radio , TV , etc. . That's the 1st time I've heard it turned around . I'll stick to what I've learned...
YES! That's what I read as well. And I thought then, as I think now that it is a remote possibility for that electrode to break off from a resonance created...
Pull the carb and clean it. Especially the float valve. Take it from a guy who LIVES in the world of shellac'd carburetors- there is no other way. Pull...
