What’s the difference between a 1974 and 1975 rl250?
Remember that the ‘differences’ in the 1974 RL250L and 1975 RL250M are not necessarily by model year. I discuss my impressions of how and when changes were made here.

Do you need 2 stroke fuel ratios for dirt bikes?
Mixing 2 stroke fuel ratios for dirt bikes (premix) can be a royal pain in the jaxi, and more annoying than having to listen to Britney Spears on the office radio. However, it’s essential for two bangers and it’s something you need to do correctly or you’ll damage or even destroy the engine.
