[[File:suzuki-rm60-2003-0.jpg|600px|2003 Suzuki RM60]]
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.
