At Loretta's last year Suzuki had what many believe to be a prototype RM125 engine in a 250Z chassis along with a petition for people to sign to get it to production.
Of course no further word from Suzuki on this, but no surprise there.
David Pingree had this to say in his Racer-X ask Ping section:
"About a year ago I was talking with one of the media members at Suzuki and they told me they were working on this project. I don’t know if the bike at Loretta’s is the same one, but Suzuki had built a prototype 125 utilizing a 250F chassis. They told me at the time they were pushing to get the bike back into production but they needed help from Stefan Everts, Mike Webb and fans worldwide who were hoping for the bike to return. It sounds like there is a petition to sign with the display and maybe, just maybe, that will help to get the Japanese company moving. The bike looks rad but only time will tell if it actually hits the production line again.
PING"
What do you think? Would they sell? Is the beginning of a sea change in the MX world, or just another cool project bike that will never see production?
