Suzuki’s all-new 2019 RM-Z250 technical specs released
Suzuki Motor of America has released technical details for the all-new 2019 RM-Z250 motocrosser. Redesigned for 2019, the updated RM-Z250 now mirrors the cutting-edge styling of the championship-caliber RM-Z450. An upgraded engine and list of chassis changes that achieve superior performance were developed so the RM-Z250 remains the best handling 250 on the track.
The 2019 RM-Z250 features a new cylinder head that contributes to better throttle response and power and a new dual injector EFI, increasing performance through the entire rev-range. Exceptional handling from a new, lighter aluminum frame and swingarm contribute to the RM-Z250 advancement as well as a new KYB-supplied suspension that includes a new coil-spring fork. Race-ready Dunlop MA33 tires and improved braking performance increases stopping power and feel with a larger front brake rotor to help keep the rider in control.
Back in the pits, tuning the new EFI system for maximum performance is easy thanks to Suzuki’s proven fuel-coupler system.
Evolving the fundamental performance elements of ‘RUN’, ‘TURN’ and ‘STOP’ to a new level, Suzuki has infused the Winning Balance into the 2019 RM-Z250. With particular attention focused on advancing its ‘TURN’ capabilities, Suzuki engineers have achieved an even greater level of balance between the race-proven engine and the slim, nimble chassis to again raise the standard for cornering performance.
