Shizuoka, Japan - Suzuki has taken the wraps off its new 2011 RM-Z250 motocrosser.

The 2011 Suzuki RM-Z250 features a 249cc, four-stroke engine, lightweight aluminium chassis, Showa suspension and Suzuki's latest off-road competition technology.

Suzuki's original Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system incorporates a 43mm throttle body with progressive throttle linkage and a battery-less fuel pump.

The 249cc, four-stroke, single-cylinder, liquid cooled DOHC engine is engineered to perform, delivering impressive high-end performance throughout a wide powerband, without compromising low-to-mid range power and torque.

Overall operation and feel of the RM-Z250 has been enhanced for 2011, with updated ECU settings for increased linear acceleration and improved over-rev and revised intake and exhaust timings for lower noise output.

An updated transmission improves durability, with the clutch featuring improved lubrication on the centre and counter shaft for enhanced feel and response.

The RM-Z250's radiator hose routing has been changed for more efficient cooling and the kick starting arm has been revised for improved starts.

Developed in competition, a high-strength, twin-spar aluminium alloy frame gives riders agile handling, with the chassis and suspension system offering superior cornering and tighter line selection.

The RM-Z250 features updated wiring harness routing and a convenient fuel line cap, for easier maintenance.

These are also a set of new graphics accompanying the Champion Yellow / Black colour scheme for the 2011 model.

The Suzuki 2011 RM-Z250 will be available from early August for an RP of $10,690*.

* Recommended Price includes GST, excludes dealer delivery and government charges.
