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.

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. | 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.

==Engine== | |||
The engine was a [[air cooled]] twin, two-stroke. A 54.0mm [[bore]] x 54.0mm [[stroke]] result in a [[displacement]] of just 247.0 cubic centimeters. Fuel was supplied via a membrane. | |||
==Drive== | |||
The bike has a 6-speed transmission. | |||
==Chassis== | |||
It came with a 3.00-18 front [[tire]] and a 3.50-18 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via single disc in the front and a expanding [[brake]] in the rear. The GT250X 7 E (cast wheels) was fitted with a 3.96 Gallon (15.00 Liters) fuel tank. | |||
