Z head has a different squish profile. Mucho more power if you have the nads to ride it flat out

The CR250RD was the best 250 in '83 hands down..

The shock wasn't that bad and the rest of the bike was brilliant..

If you read the fine print it has a Z head on it! Cheap if you ask me.

JO - stock standard the Honda may have been better but put a Z head on a D and made it a whole different ball game - the Z was a real goer and the head did the same thing to the D model.
