Probably the best restoration i've seen. This is 100% going to blow up. The video, not the bike!
Thanks man, I really appreciate that!
For real this is the most in-depth I've seen so far and you do it inside your house and you actually show people that you don't need all this fancy fancy equipment yes you have some nice dremels but it can all be done if you put your mind to it like I don't know how you don't have millions of people can you speed the videos up I can just imagine how many hours that takes you and that is one of the cleanest cleanest KX250 is I've ever seen and there's a lot of content on UA-cam LOL
Really enjoyed this in depth tear down. I have a '92 which looks very similar. How wonderfully simple these machine are. Going to keep this video in my archive for reference. Nice work!
No doubt going viral.🚀
One man show filming editing rebuilding AND... Riding🥵
This is such a KOOL rebuild 👌🏻😎...
Incredible attention to detail, looks better than it did in 95
You damn skippy it does. Looks better than any factory bike.
Amazing restoration
The 90's retro 2 strokes have always been my favourite bikes.
Iyi tamici 2defa yaladi hidrolik oldu 3we daha fazlasi olur oldu cok piratik olsun
90s bikes are retro? Damn I feel old.
2 stroke always better look
Couldn’t look any better, always loved the old kx.
Thanks dude!
These older bikes have way better style then the new ones. Good job man.
Thank man!
Temizledi devam 3 w2 ayni ol seriyi bozdun
First video I've ever watched on UA-cam where I didn't have to fast forward and watched all the way to the end, impressed the entire time. Bravo!
It was fast forwarded for you. 😬
Damn for some reason I kept watching and it was incredible.
Thank you Matt!
This is the most satisfying bike build I've ever seen
It's Art! And YOU ARE A ARTIST ! BEAUTIFUL!👍👍
Thank you, Jason!
Absolutely the most beautiful bike I’ve ever seen. I had a 95 kx250 back in high school that I spent a lot of time wrenching on and seeing the parts go together in this video brings back memories.
That's awesome man! Thanks for sharing.
Looking forward to see you smoke me on the trails as soon as it’s not dusty anymore. Awesome video, beautiful looking bike, a joy to watch.
Thank you my friend!
Wow talk about a full meal deal, holy green goodness!!! 👍
Thank you my friend!
Amazing build and amazing video!
Thank you, Derek!! You've got amazing riding skills, and your friends who were airing it out down that hill I think are insane.
One of the only people on here who actually restores the parts rather than getting all new parts. good job
Thanks dude!
The pace and flow of this video is on point
This is the best restoration i have ever seen on an old bike. Coming from a car restoration trained background.
Unreal
Thanks man, I appreciate that!
Extremely good. You have the magic hand dude.
Fricken Love your re-incarnations of these Bikes.. Anybody can buy a New one… It takes Talent to re-store an Old one… Good on you bro.
Hey Mark, Thanks a lot man, I appreciate that!
Brings back so many memories.
This guy might need to be working for NASA....beautiful work!
If this is the work of one man then he is definition of mechanical protege!
Thanks man!
Wow, absolitely outstanding.
Amazing skills, perfection exist.
Thank you, Eric!
Nice! I restored a 99 KX250 a few years back for my trail ride. I just love the old 2 strokes.
Awesome restoration and the engine sounded so clean and crisp!
Thanks Brian!
Your one Bad Dude Marc awesome build!
lol Thanks James! 👍
wow good job man beautiful KX beautiful good job I'm from Rio Grande do Sul - Brazil🇧🇷
Thank you Mauro!!
OMG..Blown up restoration,beautifully done..Rebirth of an icon..
All time favorite graphics was the early to mid 90s, the Golden Era of Motocross.
Just when I thought I was bad ass. He proves me wrong. Precious art from this build.👍👌🙏
You rule, Shannon!
I love when they redo older bikes.I have a 97 Honda cr 250 that still looks good and run like hell but one day I would love to have you redo it like the kx. Get back at me about it when you get a chance
What a fantastic looking bike. You can't beat the old ones. Very well done indeed 👏
Thanks man!
Wonderful job. Splitting the cases is beyond me. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed day.
Minute 7:13 is the best trick I even seeing. I spend a lot of time of my life on my brake
Beautiful work can’t beat the 90s motocross bikes
Blue on green look awesome 👌
Can't imagine the hours put into this. Took me 3 hours to change an alternator.
Well done. So impressive 👏 🙌
Most techs working in m/c shops can't even do this. Great video buddy!!
Thank you Brandon!
@@madmarc Marc, is this message about texting a gift, from you?
@@brandonr.klrcrazy No, that's a spammer, please ignore it.
That thing is gorgeous 👌
Thanks dude!
Love the old school look👍
And then l rode it in the mid! Yeehaw! I just finished rebuilding my 95 kx250 and l love riding it. I didn’t come close to your level of detail. Nice work!!!
Pay this man his money! Amazing video
Awesome work u didn't go over bord just the oem look... really nice bike
Thanks Mario!
@@madmarc np dude
WOW this is the most gorgeous retro bike i've ever seen. This green is insane and odly get along very well with the blue. It's like you bring the 90's back to life for a couple of minutes. I was realy into it ! Congratulation for this amazing job and skills. You got one more follower !
Thank you man, I appreciate the words !!
Absolutely, " Majestic"
Nicely done 👍
Thank you Stoney!
Incredible talent, the amount of hours you have put into the build and cinematography is amazing. Such an epic resto thank you for sharing.
Thank you Marty!
I don't think that there's any better or more detailed restoration dirt bike video out there!. Brilliant work 👏 👍 👌
Thank you Samuel!! That means a lot.
@@madmarc do u still have the drz400 sm ? I just bought one last month u should make more videos with it .
@@samueljoseph9540 I do have it still, but it's a low maintenance bike and I barely ride it. If you have video ideas for the DRZ let me know!
@@madmarc that's the reason why I chose the drz400sm it's reliability and maintance is just unmatched I also had a crf450 sold it .do some on road and off road videos with the drz400sm .
🔥your works insane dude details stunning !
Thanks man!!
Man, this is satisfying, and the colour scheme is perfect
Thats Perfection right there. I just did a 99 yz250 build and thought I was detailed...Wow, you polished every inch of that thing. Very nice work.
Thank you Trevor!
You gave her a new life. I'm so proud of you.
Love the old school stickers to keep it representing where it came from. Awesome work!
Thanks man!
This amazing! By far the best restoration I’ve ever seen
Thank you John-Roy!
The craftsmanship in this video is phenomenal this is the best repair I have ever seen !! Great effort and awesome bike! ,that is beyond showroom condition
Thank you my friend! That means a lot!
The talent, craftmanship and finished product are both truly amazing to say the least,
Hundred hours of work ....amazing ....

You can proud of you,..enjoy your ride...
Thank you so much, Mike! I appreciate that!!
One of the most beautiful rebuilds I've ever seen!
Thank you man!! 🙏 I really appreciate that.
Love the color scheme.
Thank you!
Just noticed this, I have a 94 kx250. It was 1 of 10 team bikes sent by Kawasaki early 1994 before delayed production units hit the USA . Was so hyped I went with mechanics to pick up crates at Ohare airport. I begged for my crate be dropped at my house right then.🤤They didnt, I got it the next morning and have never let her go!
After some FMF Emler alone time, and dialing suspension, never before or after found a ride more suited to me. Smooth , explosive, fine, and brutal, and with the optional factory suspension kit, DAM I can Quad now and not break frames every week!! Me- 1994
Such a sick bike and rebuild. Love the OEM theme.
I redid my 98kx250 last year and put 91 graphics on it.
Post a link to a photo!
@@madmarc I have a bunch of photos but they aren’t hosted anywhere.
What’s your procedure for the cases? Mine were pretty ugly and I used a wire wheel on a dremel and WD40. They came out alright but not OEM new. I was also curious how you “blued” your forks? I almost anodized my forks but decided I didn’t want to put that kind of money into the bike so I stripped them and cerakoting them instead.
@@someoneyouknow96 I have a video here on cleaning the engine cases. ua-cam.com/video/PPf3dul4Rf8/v-deo.html basically I used fine steel brushes and a Dremel, but if I had to do it over again I would just use small abrasive wheels from eBay, which is what I used to clean and polish all the other parts.
For the forks, I had them anodized by a local shop.
@@madmarc ill check that video out when I get home. Your forks looked awesome!!!
I thought about cerakoting my forks blue but the blue was the wrong color and it just doesn't look like anodozing.
One the best I've watched!! Loved it man
I'm happy to hear that man, Thanks so much!
the quality is insane dude!! keep up tha work
Thank you Griffin!
When you rebuild a bike in your living room, you have really lived!!!!🤟
Maybe it’s just me, I enjoyed the fact that this guy is able to paint and repair his machine in his living room! Wish I were in your shoes. No wife kids etc enjoy your builds!
lol. My husband and I were just talking about it. 😂
Very nice job of both building the bike and the editing of your video no fluff no bullshit just perfect mate can't wait to see more I have a 95kdx220r I'm restoring currently very similar and a 92 kx250 for a later project good work few ideas you gave me in there
Thank you John, I appreciate that. Good luck with your project.
I was just wondering what feelings you had taking the test drive after that great job. Congratulations on the professional work.
It was so satisfying. It felt like riding a two-stroke for the first time all over again (in a good way). I didn't have the chance to ride this bike before I bought it because it was in sad condition as you see in the video. And I'd never ridden a KX250 before. So I didn't know what to expect. Once it fired up and I got on the throttle I was taking it easy. The power is way more explosive than my CR250 (at least in the low-to-mid-range). The rear wheel kept spinning so you I had to be gentle on the throttle in the turns. But man, it was fun.
@@madmarc si
Awesome restoration bro!
Thanks Dude!
Beautiful thing to watch! All those old warhorses deserve an extreme makeover.
Wow this vid is mind blowing.. Great Work 1,000,000%!!!
Thank you man!!
Wow amazing work. And a great bike
This deserve for an Oscar in mechanical field!
Just amazing! That was fun to watch so much time into that then rewarded with a ripper!
Thank you Mike, I appreciate that!
Excellent work beautiful bike
Thank you, John!
Super filming and editing.
Oh my lord! So unbelievably gorgeous. Watching this video just made my day way better, thanks Mad Marc.
Thanks man, I'm happy to hear this!!
Woah, what an amazing job, a friend and I rebuilt his 2001 Suzuki 125 and it was so fun, I learned so much. it's thr attention to detail and doing things the right way rather than the quick way which made it so fun.
Thanks Marc, and that's cool to hear about the Suzuki. Hope you're having fun with it.
Absolutely unreal resto, a pleasure to watch. That’s the bike you want for the end of the world isn’t it!
Wow, truly epic my man. Beautiful
My respect. Best work ever Seen in one Of my favourite models ever built
Thank you Sanchez!
Wow, looks amazing, I redone a 94 about 3 years ago using all Kawasaki internal parts it was tough to find some parts, you don't realize how many things have been discontinued until after you start a project like this. Nice work🤘
That is sweet the bue on green hyper mean. Im usually trolling sucking life outa duds, but this bike is pumped.
Wow what a build! You should be pumped about this build, great job and that bike is smoking.
Thank you Jared!
@@madmarc welcome brother. Keep doing those builds, learning alot from them.
So nice when the content is exactly how the title states and not straight to someone talking and stroking their ego I can tell you spent hours on this quality edit man great job 5 stars
Thank you Andrew!
Super travail de restoration, et super travail de montage video !
Merci mon ami.
I’m a Honda guy, but that’s one of the best lookin Kawasaki 2 strokes I’ve ever seen. Great job man 👍 keep buildin hard
Thanks dude! I'm flattered by your comment.
This is an amazing build!!!!! 👏 👏 👏
Thank you, Caitlin!!!
This is what these old gems deserve this was a different era of design and build quality I have a 98 KLX it runs sweet but I’d only dream of going through it and doing this to it maybe one day, nice video friend great talent you are gifted here. 👍
ABSOLUTELY SICK
Dude! Great time-lapse editing!
the result is awsesome.it looks a lot better than the old..great skills and talent.
1992 was always my favorite year graphics wise
Agreed!
This is incredible! Well done!
Overall amazing restoration and attention to details! Great work!
