Get ready for a shot of mid-range designed to help you blast past the competition. The new RM125 has a wider powerband and more controllable power delivery than ever. Couple that increased power with refined suspension systems front and rear, and you've got the hottest on-two-five on the track.
So get in on Suzuki's winning tradition, with the new 2005 RM125.
Redesigned cylinder
head with reduced compression ratio for
more stable combustion
Revised exhaust valve timing for increased
engine response at low rpm and improved
traction from mid to high rpm
Redesigned exhaust valve
governor - designed to complement the
exhaust valve timing change and open
the exhaust valves more gradually for
a smoother, broader powerband
New crankshaft with
asymmetrical flywheel balance similar
to RM250 - provides improved rear wheel
traction control, plus increased crankshaft
inertia for better throttle response
New Mikuni TMX38SS carburetor
with power jet and throttle position
sensor -TPS is linked to the ignition
system to adjust timing to suit engine
load for more controllable engine power
characteristics
New steering head
cap seal added for improved steering head
bearing protection
Footpeg position moved back 10mm for
optimal center of gravity and riding
feel - includes 10mm shorter gear shift
lever and 13.5mm shorter rear brake
pedal
Updated swingarm design
featuring a new bridge tube behind the
pivot section for increased rigidity
and improved straight-line performance
Redesigned chain guide for reduced weight
New seat cover material
for improved grip, plus new seat foam
for improved durability
Improved front fork
performance: Honed internal surface
of the inner tube for smoother fork
movement Larger oil capacity above piston
and shim stack for improved oil flow
at full travel Improved dust seal Refined
valve settings for better overall suspension
balance
Improved rear shock
performance: Larger inner rod diameter
for increased oil flow at full compression
Refined valve settings for better overall
suspension balance
Smaller front brake
hose O.D. and Allen-style brake hose
bolts for reduced weight
Shorter rear brake hose
and hex-style brake hose bolts for reduced
weight
Improved rear brake
caliper design: Higher rigidity for
more consistent caliper piston movement
and feedback More even brake pad wear
Brake pad insulator attached directly
to the pads to further reduce weight
Hex-style rear brake
pad pins for easier brake pad maintenance
Redesigned rear brake
disc cover with external mounting bolts
for easier maintenance and reduced weight
New air/oil separator
added to rear master cylinder for more
stable brake performance, plus new hex-style
8mm reservoir cap mounting bolts and
5mm master cylinder mounting bolts for
easier maintenance
Master cylinder control
rod threaded directly to the rear brake
pedal yoke eliminating lock-nut clamp
to reduce weight
New aluminum handlebars
- more rigid than steel construction
to reduce vibration - includes Suzuki
handlebar pad
New aluminum mounting
spacers designed for easier installation
and more secure mounting of radiator
shrouds, frame covers and fenders
