The bike is awesome. Raced it this season and not a single issue. The shootouts are bullshit, never take into account the price.

Yes the RMZ450's can be purchased at a very reasonable price which allows budget for some personalization like suspension and or engine updates

I just bought one like yours and i am having a lot of trouble starting it... is that normal for bikes just out of the dealership?

The 2019 RMZ450 I rode was new and always started in 1~3 kicks. Sometimes it requires a pretty healthy kick and don't turn the throttle while kicking. You can also try turning the idle up a little and if there is a cold start button use it on first start ups. Brand new engines can be tight and take a 3~5 hours to loosen up. If it takes more than 4~5 kicks there might be an issue.

I've owned the 2009/11/13 RMZ450's myself and never had any issues (engine or chassis). The base engine design has been around a long time so seems to be well sorted with classic broad 4-stroke powerband. Kickstart is a deal breaker for some riders. The chassis is firm. Deals can be found on these bike but deals can be found on a lot of bikes now (like KX450's). The '23 YZ450F is a different 450F kind of experience.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXPUgKtnr89qjtk

I see the newer suzuki bikes come in last in every shootout. Are they not that good of bikes or whats the deal with them? They seem like damn good bikes to me.

All the latest 450F moto bikes are very capable. The RMZ has a more classic old school thumper feel - slower revving engine and it is the heaviest of the current 450MX bikes even without electric start. RMZ450's can be purchased at big discounts leaving plenty of money for personalization.

I dont race so i thought about getting the new rmz because of the price. I was just curious on why people talk crap about em. Thanks.

Would this make a good off road bike for fast riding and a little bit of technical riding thanks

The RMZ450 engine has an old school 4-stroke character with somewhat slow revving smooth power. The engine runs clean at low rpm and with a Rekluse Autoclutch is almost stall proof (my 2013 RMZ450 was great in the woods with the Rekluse). The RMZ chassis is stiff so it responds quickly to inputs which makes it feel more agile but there is more track and trail feedback to the rider. RMZ's can be purchased relatively cheap so that leaves room for personalization (like suspension valving and a Rekluse auto clutch). Once you've owned a 450 with e-start its kind of hard to go back to kick starting!
