    Normaly they have showa rear shock or am i wrong?
    What would be a good gearing voor MX enduro?
    It has now 15 46
    I was thinking about 15-50 for allround

    yes Showa is standard
    WXE250 gearing stock is 14/48, but as long as your not in too tight or too steep of an area that should work
    doing the math 14/48 to 15/50 is essentially a half tooth on the countershaft

    I like the 14/48 combo but 15/50 would be good as well. Ohlins were available back in the day as they were a popular upgrade in Europe at the time. I would say that bike is a 1993 WXE model from looking at it.

    Thanks alot for the explaining
    The bike is from 1992 but maybe model 1993 that could be.
    Some parts are hard to find but less rare as parts for my 90 and 91 bikes.

    1993 production would have started in 1992. The forks with external preload adjusters were used on 1993 and 1994 models only. The seat, swingarm, and yellow fork guards also point to a 1993 model. I will say it is in excellent condition and 1993 models are a good all around bike.

    Yes it is an CR250 from 1992 but they mounted the 1993 forks and headlight and taillight for road use in europe
    This 1993 forks of showa with the preload adjusters are pretty good
