Webike's Opinion
Here is a "SUZUKI RGV250" custom by Webike community user "funky18wonderland". The owner, a returning rider, couldn’t forget the first-generation RGV250 he rode more than 20 years ago, so he decided to purchase an RGV250 once again. He says that he loves everything about this bike—its light weight, ease of handling, excellent fuel efficiency, and overall charm. The rarity of the RGV250 also enhances his sense of ownership and pride. He also mentions feeling a lack of power over 10000rpm, which was resolved by changing the exhaust chamber. This modification provided an acceleration that he describes as almost frightening.
To better control the airflow when riding at high speeds, he installed a Magical Racing Flanged Windshield. This windshield, with its raised center and lower edges, effectively manages wind hitting the helmet. For the chain, a consumable part, he opted for the RK GV Series Gold Chain in a stunning all-gold finish. Compared to the previous model, it is more compact, lightweight, and stronger, contributing to improved fuel efficiency and reduced power loss. The suspension has been upgraded to an OHLINS Rear Suspension, which maintains precise and stable damping force across all speed ranges. Its wide range of adjustability supports an optimal riding experience tailored to the rider's needs.
Looking ahead, the owner plans to add deflectors to channel airflow toward the engine cylinders and replace the radiator to further enhance cooling performance.
