From years of experience helping racers around the world reach the top of the podium, Suzuki understands that the power of high-performance engineering is often in the details.

The 2013 model comes with an all-new three per cent lighter piston and reshaped piston pin enhancing durability and more efficient lubrication, contributing to better throttle response and smoother power delivery.

The revised cam specification, intake cam profile and exhaust cam timing achieve an ideal balance between high performance and ease of power control when competing on the track.

The redesigned exhaust system meets new FIM sound control regulations, a key goal of Suzuki engineers, thanks to a 40mm extension of the exhaust pipe and redesigned internal muffler parts, increasing bottom to mid-range power and torque, without compromising engine performance.

A smooth but solid shift feel is ensured thanks to the all-new 5 speed transmission offering more precision in shifting with a change in the clutch release cam shape reducing the force required to operate the clutch, and enhancing the clutch feel.

The RM-Z250 is now equipped with an all-new race-bred 48mm Showa Separate Function front fork containing the spring on the right leg, while the left leg incorporates the cartridge assembly to manage damping with the result being less friction, increased damping and an overall weight saving.

To fine-tune fuel preferences to suit track conditions, two couplers are enclosed allowing the rider to easily change fuel settings by connecting either coupler.

The redesigned frame and seat optimise rigidity and balance for agile handling and stability with stylish two-tone radiator shrouds and all-new aggressive graphics accentuating the RM-Z250's agile look. Look deep and you’ll see the championship-inspired upgrades Suzuki made to the 2013 RM-Z250.
