magazine. Click to enlarge. The original magazine with just
about every motorcycle model Suzuki made from early 60's to 2001

A
couple of years after the presentation of the GSX-R750 a little
brother with a 250cc engine was born. Like its big brother, the
GSX-R250 had a box-frame (steel, not aluminum), full fairing,
Full-floater rear swing and a four-cylinder four-stroke engine.
But while the GSX-R750 engine was air and oil-cooled, the baby
brother had a liquid-cooled engine. Not many examples are seen
outside Japan. 17-inch cast wheels and 300 mm twin disc brake
at the front.

In
1988 the GXR-R250 got new graphics put mechanically it remained
unchanged. GSX-R250R, a super-sports model, was released. Unfortunately
I don't have pictures or information of the '88 RR model.
