2026 Triumph
TF 250-X
T
he 2026 Triumph TF 250-X
has a few minor updates.
The most notable is a brand-new
airbox and silencer redesigned
to enhance airflow. Along with
updated engine mapping, these
changes lead to "improved power
delivery and throttle response,"
according to Triumph.
The '26 is equipped with a new
Exedy clutch that Triumph says
"delivers a more direct engage
-
ment, enhanced durability under
extreme conditions, and significantly
increases torque capacity."
Updated suspension tuning focused
on improving mid-stroke control, chas
-
sis balance, and cornering stability.
Details include a new layout for the
battery tray for better accessibility and
a redesigned oil-level sight glass for
clearer and more accurate readings.
And, it goes without saying, it has new
graphics.
Availability has not yet been an
-
nounced, nor has the price.

2026 Suzuki
RM-Z450 & 250
T
he big news here is that there is no
news to report about the 2026
Suzuki RM-Z450 ($9399) and RM-
Z250 ($8299). At least, they are
returning and should be available at
any time now. Suzuki's two flagship
motocross bikes are once again re
-
turning with no mechanical or perfor-
mance changes, just new graphics.
Suzuki will again offer a limited
number of RM Army Edition versions
of both the 450 and 250. This pack-
age includes a Pro Circuit RM Army
Edition T-6 full exhaust system with
a titanium silencer shell, carbon-fiber

at no extra cost with the purchase of
a new 2026 RM-Z.
