The '''Suzuki GT250''' is a [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Suzuki]] from 1973 to 1977. Suzuki GT250 was an upgraded version of the [[Suzuki T250|T250]]. In fact, the very first models (released in Japan) were exactly the same bike, only the model name was different. When the model was presented in the rest of the world, the additional ”G” in front of the T250 model name was to show that the model has been modernized with a disc brake at the front and with a new Ram Air cylinder head. | The '''Suzuki GT250''' is a [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Suzuki]] from 1973 to 1977.

If we take a closer look at [[Suzuki]]'s 250 models before the T250, we will find out that the [[Suzuki T20|T20 Super Six (X6 Hustler in the USA)]] had very much in common with both the T250 and GT250. Many parts from the sixties' T20 (and even the T10 from the early sixties) will fit to them. | If we take a closer look at [[Suzuki]]'s 250 models before the T250, we will find out that the [[Suzuki T20|T20 Super Six (X6 Hustler in the USA)]] had very much in common with both the T250 and GT250.

The T250 had a slightly more powerful engine than the GT250. The environmental and noise regulations of the early seventies forced Suzuki to redesign the exhausts, somewhat poorer performance as a result. | The T250 had a slightly more powerful engine than the GT250.

Just a quick bit of info on the differences that between the Ram Air J-K-L-M (1973—1975) models and the later A-B-C (1976—1978) variants: Ram Air motors are quite closely related to earlier T250's and share the three | Just a quick bit of info on the differences that between the Ram Air J-K-L-M (1973—1975) models and the later A-B-C (1976—1978) variants: Ram Air motors are quite closely related to earlier T250's and share the three main bearing crankshaft arrangement, and the carburetors are bolted directly to the barrels. A-B-C variants have a revised crankshaft using four main bearings and different lubrication arrangements, also the barrels are different in construction using different stud spacing, and rubber inlet stubs which mount the carburetors. | ||
