With 2020 seeing the RM-Z250 get significant updates, to bring it inline with the RM-Z450, all we see is some Bold New Graphics - and even that is very minimal. Check out the highlights of both bikes below.

2020 RM-Z250

The RM-Z250 has always set the standard as the best-handling 250 on the track. Now, the 2020 version brings strong, usable power thanks to a center-port cylinder head. The engine is fed via a dual injector EFI system and an AMA-compliant exhaust that helps boost performance through the entire rev-range.

The twin-spar aluminum frame and hydro-formed swingarm carry a KYB-supplied suspension that includes a coil spring fork and a shock with four-way damping force adjustment. Strong brakes and ergonomically shaped bodywork that helps keep the rider in control as the RM-Z250 carves up the racetrack.

Back in the pits, tuning the new EFI system for maximum performance is easy, thanks to Suzuki’s proven fuel-coupler system. Suzuki’s Winning Balance is again on display with the 2020 RM-Z250, as it again raises its own high standard for cornering performance.

2020 RM-Z250 Key Features

Light aluminum frame and hydro-formed swingarm

Dual-injected engine delivers excellent throttle response and peak power
KYB coil spring fork and shock have efficient spring rates and damping force settings
Tuning the EFI system is easy and quick with the included fuel couplers
Aggressive Suzuki race styling and race-ready ergonomics
Center-port cylinder head increases output and throttle response
Traction management system helps the bike hook up
Suzuki Holeshot Assist Control (S-HAC) gets you out front
Fuel couplers are included for quick and easy EFI tuning
The primary fuel injector is at the bottom of the throttle body and sprays fuel at the butterfly valve for outstanding fuel and air atomization. The secondary injector is positioned in the air cleaner inlet duct so the fuel and air have more time to mix and cool before entering the engine.
The cam chain tension adjuster and guide have been designed to reduce friction and mechanical loss.
The compact aluminum cylinder is finished with Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) coating for durability, lightweight and efficient heat transfer.
