At the heart of the 2010 Suzuki RM85 cross - motocross motorcycle, Suzuki relies on a 84 cc (5.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 48.0 x 46.8 mm (1.9 x 1.8 inches) with a 9.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the RM85 measures 73 kg (161 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 850 mm (33.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,240 mm (48.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
Within MotoLibrary's Suzuki archive, this model family spans 17 indexed model years from 2008 to 2024, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
