Either way, the new 2001 RM250 is completely redesigned to help you blitz the competition on your way to becoming the local favorite. The new RM250 is not only faster this year, It's got a load of additional power right where you need it most - in the heart of the powerband. A radical new two-stage exhaust valve system accounts for the increase in mid-range. It has a wider operating range, which in tum allows all other port timing to be optimized. The result is stronger, smoother-revvlng low-end power and absolutely blistering mid-range. On top of that, a new carburetor with a throttle position sensor helps provide sharper , cleaner throttle response espec ially at low rpm, which helps you roost out of corners. So get on the bike designed to tear up the local competition. The all-new RM250. Z U _ s k . I • c o m
