History

Introduced in 1980, the Yamaha RZ250, known as the RD250LC in some international markets, became one of the most influential lightweight sports motorcycles of its generation. Powered by a lively liquid-cooled two-stroke parallel twin engine, it delivered exciting performance while remaining lightweight and agile. The 4L3 model quickly earned a reputation for its sharp handling, responsive acceleration and distinctive styling, helping define the golden era of Japanese two-stroke sports bikes. Today, the RZ250 remains a highly sought-after classic among collectors and motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide.
