2008 RM-Z250 The RM-Z250 features a compact, lightweight and powerful 250cc 4-stroke engine design, a strong and lightweight aluminum chassis, Showa suspension components and many high-performance features for the ultimate 250cc 4-stroke racing machine. The RM-Z250 engine is based around an over-square bore x stroke design, with liquid-cooling, titanium valves and double overhead billet cams. The engine is housed by a lightweight, twin-spar aluminum-alloy frame combining aluminum forgings, extrusions and stampings welded into a single unit. The whole package is supported by a Showa inverted, twin-chamber, cartridge fork and Showa remote reservoir rear shock. The RM-Z250 features a unique aluminum rear swingarm built using hydro-formed, thick-wall tapered arms welded to a cast linkage bracket and forged axle holders. Other features include Dunlop tires mounted on lightweight aluminum rims with a special spoke/nipple design, plus Renthal aluminum handlebars as standard equipment. Included with this year’s new model are all the benefits of Suzuki’s race contingency, trackside support, Tony D School and Good scholar program. All these added benefits are exclusive to Suzuki riders.

New Features
- Race inspired brake rotors provide better cooling performance and increased mud deflection in muddy conditions.
- Newly designed pegs include increased clearance between the mounting bracket and footrest to prevent mud from caking up.
- Gripper seat has been improved this year by adding projected cross-shaped patterns on the top surface to provide additional grip.

New Engine
- KEIHIN FCR 37 MX Carburetor with bat-wing type air guide plates result in better mid-to-high power output while improving low throttle opening response.
- Exhaust port is narrowed down on the left side for an increase of mid-to-high power output.
- Muffler construction revised improving power output throughout the rev range.
- Clutch judder springs added for a more controllable operation feel.
- Modified piston profile for increased engine reliability.
- Hot starter relocated to the right hand side of the handlebar just like Ricky Carmichael’sChampionship winning RM-Z250.

New Chassis
- Brackets are added to the side frame pipes and tank rails for increased balance rigidity.
- Lower bridge pipes reduced in size resulting in improved shock-absorption feel while maintaining ample strength.
- Showa cartridge-style front fork with 47mm inner tube, plus 22 -way compression damping and 11.8 inches of wheel travel. Sections within the fork were modified to reduce weight and improve shock absorption.
- Showa rear shock absorber with a newly designed damper case and modified internal structure for a better controlled feel and increased bottoming resistance.
- Gold-colored chain and axle blocks give a full factory look.

Engine Features
- Compact 249cc, 4-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, 4-valve engine – designed for maximum performance
- Advanced 4-valve cylinder head design with narrow included valve angle and titanium valves, plus new pentroof combustion chamber design for improved combustion efficiency
- SCEM composite-plated aluminum alloy cylinder for increased durability, optimum engine cooling and operating temperature
- Strong, reinforced airbox designed for durability and secure intake seal
- Automatic decompression system for easy kick starting
- Semi-dry-sump lubrication system features separate oil chambers for the transmission and crankshaft using the transmission as the oil sump, allowing low crankshaft placement, reduced engine height and a low center of gravity
- AC-CDI ignition system with two ignition maps automatically increases engine idle speed to reduce engine brake effect – ignition timing and rev limiter set for optimum high rpm and over-rev performance

Chassis Features
- Twin spar aluminum alloy frame based on the championship winning RM-Z250 featuring a forged aluminum headpipe and body frame
- Renthal tapered aluminum handlebars with Renthal-labeled handlebar pad for reduced vibration and improved rider feel
- On-the-fly clutch lever adjuster mounted to the clutch lever perch for rider convenience

Color Solid Black/Champion Yellow No. 2

Introducing the RM-Z450 with Suzuki fuel injection. Our engineers developed the RM-Z450 using experience gained developing fuel-injection systems for Suzuki’s legendary GSX-R road race bikes and the championship-winning QuadRacer R450 ATV.

The result is the world’s only mass-produced, fuel-injected motocross bike, designed to help you blow away the competition. As if that breakthrough technology weren’t enough, our engineers used their experience developing Ricky Carmichael’s championship-winning RM-Z450 to redesign the RM-Z450’s chassis, suspension and brakes. That means it offers sharper handling, smoother suspension performance and more powerful braking than ever.

And just so no one misses the fact that you’re on the hottest bike on the track, the RM-Z450 is also completely restyled, with new aerodynamic bodywork that’s both sleek and functional. The all-new fuel-injected RM-Z450 – it gives you the power to dominate.

Engine Features
Electronic Fuel Injection offers better roll on power and strong low-to-mid range power. KEIHIN throttle body specifically designed for motocross. Fuel is delivered via an internal fuel pump and is a battery-less system
5-Speed Transmission makes the RM-Z450 versatile for various terrain conditions and features a link type shifting mechanism
Intake port angle and cam timing result in reduced intake resistance and heightened intake efficiency. Exhaust port and cam timing are designed to regulate exhaust pulses for maximum engine performance
Battery-less fuel injection system features a single-phase all-charging system with which the magneto supplies all of the necessary power
18-pin magneto-rotor senses feedback on crankshaft position, rotation speed and stroke which is fed back to the ECU to calculate optimum injection and ignition timings.
KEIHIN fuel pump located inside the fuel tank provides stable pressure delivery to operate the fuel injection system
Combustion chamber designed for strong low-to-mid range response as well as top-end pull. Narrower intake and exhaust valve angle guides along with increased squish areas improve air/fuel mixing and faster flame-propagation speed when mixture ignites
Semi-dry-sump lubrication system features separate oil chambers for the transmission and crankshaft using the transmission as the oil sump, allowing low crankshaft placement, reduced engine height and a low center of gravity

Chassis Features
Aluminum-alloy twin spar frame is lightweight and has optimum rigidity balance for incredibly agile handling and unmatched performance over bumps
Aluminum fuel tank houses a KEIHIN fuel pump for optimum performance and a factory bike look
Slim riding position opens up the cockpit for additional room to allow the rider to actively take control of the machine
Showa cartridge-style front fork is fully adjustable for rebound, compression and preload settings and designed for reduced weight and improved shock absorption
Showa-brand rear shock absorber designed to deliver a controlled feel and increased bottoming resistance
Aluminum-alloy swingarm for reduced weight and maximum terrain-traversing performance over bumps
Front fender incorporates a sloped-down shape to efficiently guide wind to the front number plate air ducts for improved cooling performance. Rear fender incorporates air intakes on both sides for heighten intake efficiency
2-tone molded-plastic radiator shrouds give the RM-Z450 a slim feel and stylish look for 2009 while also complimenting an all-new graphics design and color way
Hot start lever is located on the right hand side of the handlebar for easy operation while holding the clutch
Race inspired brake rotors provide better cooling performance and increased mud deflection in muddy conditions
Footpegs include maximum clearance between the mounting bracket and footrest to prevent mud from caking up
Gold-colored chain and axle blocks give a full factory look
