I thought there was supposed to be a 2018 Rm125 in Suzukis lineup. What happened?

Not happening per the Suzuki guys at Loretta's. If it does happen it will need to an entirely new bike and not a revised model since the molds have been destroyed. It would require all new tooling.

You can still buy crankcase sets for an RM125 though? I doubt Suzuki destroyed any molds. I know Honda must keep the originals because they recently started making parts that were previously discontinued for my NSR250. Additionally, doesn't Suzuki support some riders on 2 strokes in Europe?

They are not making new parts at Suzuki. I'm just repeating what the guys under the tent told me at Loretta's. Possibly a new RM 85 in 2020.

I didn't hear about the RM, but this is definitely a go.

It won't happen, give it up, look for blue, orange or white.

Suzuki needs to do something..... at Lorettas the RM 85 was virtually nonexistent. Motorcycle classes, they had a little better presence, but not much. A new 125 from those guys would sell like hot cakes....... but I'm not holding my breath

The 2018 RM125 was pushed back to 2019.

X2,. Plenty other new options if you want a 2 stroke.
