Positioned in Suzuki's cross - motocross motorcycle lineup, the 2005 Suzuki RM 65 relies on a 64.7 cc (4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 44.5 x 41.6 mm (1.8 x 1.6 inches) with a 8.4:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the RM 65 measures 57 kg (126 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 760 mm (29.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,120 mm (44.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 3.8-liter (1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
