2020 Suzuki RM85 (Suzuki /)

The 2020 Suzuki RM85 is a kid’s motocrosser. Although it does have approachable power from the 85cc single-cylinder two-stroke engine, its six-speed transmission makes it more appropriate for kids who have already mastered the art of shifting. The RM85 is the smallest of the track-oriented dirt bikes from Suzuki—the other small offering from Suzuki is the more trail-focused DR-Z50. The RM85′s Showa suspension is fully adjustable, making it easy to adapt to track conditions. The wheel sizes (front  70/100-17 and rear 90/100-14) also meet AMA 85cc class regulations, and the ability to earn Suzuki contingency and track-side support with this model mean that Suzuki intends for it to spin around the track.
