Best ride I've seen in a long time, on you tube... There is a universal sign when passing riders from the opposite direction,, hold up the number of riders behind you on left hand with last rider showing fist, spread the word and keep up the good work :)

Watching on my phone so I could be wrong but it looked like your bike pulled harder than the rm400 in 95% of situations. Weight, suspension, tyres advantage to the modern bike...

You’d be correct I’m on my 2013 250sx first ride on it in about 3 years and it definitely has more in the top end/longer gears than the 400 but 33 years of technology definitely helps haha
