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.

Looking very much alike the T250, Suzuki Motor Company released the GT250 in Japan in '71. As far as I know, there were only cosmetic differences between the models. The main difference to the T250 is the lack of a grab rail.

In 1972, still not presented in the Western world, the Japanese GT250 got a disc brake at the front and a new paint job. Ram Air System cylinder head. A very rare model (sorry about the poor quality of the picture, couldn't find any better).
