The RM60 is a new entry-level machine designed for young riders just starting in Motocross. The liquid-cooled 60cc reed-valve engine is tuned to produce a wide, friendly powerband with emphasis on low-to-midrange power. This was actually just a re-badged [[Kawasaki KX60]] due to [[Suzuki]] and [[Kawasaki|Kawasaki's]] model sharing agreement. | |||
