Thanks to Saharha for specially coming up today to help with the promo of this rare low hour x race bike. The bike has been a daughter father project but it now needs to go to a moto cross collector.

1981 is an X and I had a RM250X full floater. First year for the full floater and last year for the air cooled on the 250. The 125 had water cooling in '81. I had Mark Barnett's old pratice bike. Hardly any miles,tires still had the tiots and chain sprockets were like new. There is a story as to why it had no miles. I worked at the dealer and we gave him 10 new bikes each year for practice(Suzuki paid for them),then bought them back the next year for $200 each. It was a cool set up,I could buy his one year old bikes for cost plus 10%,$225!

full floater did not come out intil 1982

[@1MNUTZ]

81 had dual rear springs tank isn't an 81 either 81 had a steel tank

[@arthurfayle2469]

true but this particular model is the mid year upgrade so its classified as a XZ WHICH WAS the last air cooled model aswell. Very revolutionary

[@halfhalf9006]

i had one they came out in 82 not 81 i got my brand new and the 81 rm had a metal tank not plastic

[@arthurfayle2469]

different countries had different model releases or yours was brand new old stock 1980

[@kellyhill430]

That's not an 81 model it's a 1982 model . First year single shock last year air cooled.

[@younggunsmotorcycles9736]

thats partly true what you say. its manufacture is 1981 and the frame is stamped as X but considering its the mid year model ( rare for Suzuki) it is officially the XZ as I,ve indicated in the description listing. Thanks though for the comments but it is rare in this condition with the original I.R.C date stamped front tyre 1981

Full floater started in the 1982 model year. I actually owned a 1981 rm 80 brand new and still had the 2 shocks in the rear.
