Suzuki’s RM250 motocrosser has emerged as the top two-stroke machine
according to the latest issue of MotoX magazine, one of the UK’s
leading motocross publications. And, as an added bonus for its
customers, Suzuki GB has announced a price reduction for the model and
its smaller sibling, the RM125.
MotoX magazine tested 250cc
two-stroke machines from the five leading manufacturers for its June
2006 issue, with former GP rider, Paul Malin evaluating the bikes.“The
Suzuki felt really great: it turns and handles impeccably well and the
brakes are good,” said Malin in the test. “It is an awesome, awesome
machine and everything about it makes it a great bike.”
Malin
concluded his evaluation saying: “…on the track, the Suzuki behaves so
much better and just feels like a dream to ride… my own personal choice
for best 250cc two-smoke has to be the Suzuki RM250, which I felt was
the best 250 Suzuki I have ever ridden.”
Suzuki GB’s off-road
product co-ordinator, Rob Stout, commented: “It’s a great review of a
great bike, but customers can now get the additional benefit of a price
re-alignment on both the RM250 and RM125, which was announced today.”
From Monday 15th May, the recommended retail price for Suzuki’s RM250 is £3600, with the RM125 at £3400
