To say that the RMZ450 hasn't had changes and updates in over a decade, like implied in the video, is pretty ignorant. In 2018 suzuki reworked the frame, changed the engine mounts, also changed the cam, the mapping, front forks, and rear shock. Also changed from an aluminum tank to plastic, redesigned the entire look of the bike, plus a few other things. New for 2023 is a custom mapping ability similar to the yamaha, it just takes a separately purchased battery to upload is since there is no battery on the bike.

​@04756100 bike doesn't suck at all.. all you need to do is buy a new rear shock or send the stock one out forks are fine. Softer motor mounts help soften the chasis up. Most 450s are 10k+ you can build this suzuki and still be well under 10k

I loved his first comment when riding the bike, about how quick is was to feel comfortable on it.. I felt the same thing. Bought a 2022 RMZ450 a couple weeks ago, have been on it twice and I am in love with the bike!!!! At 210lbs or so with gear I haven’t had to touch the suspension at all yet, still have the 110 rear Bridgestone tire and everything stock. All the hate on the bike, those people just can’t ride well… they cry about it’s lack of power and suspension…. When some Pro-Am or Pro rider could still take a bike that’s 15 years old and whomp their asses with it, heck do they not realize way less powerful 250cc bikes can run the same laptimes as 450 bikes??? Lol you don’t need high HP for cornering which is where most time is made up on a track, you need to be the who Carrie’s the most momentum… and if you suck at riding, no amount of power will save you.

[@Poongobbler4130]

U should rank it by looks too u can’t deny Suzuki makes a good looking bike that yellow blue and gold with some added gold hubs and rims and all that make a damn good looking bike. If u mix some gold and blue bling parts it could b dope af

You cannot develop a new bike in one year. Also you cannot develop a new bike if you are not in the MXGP series, which allows running prototypes. I bet there will be no new bike in 2024.

[@KacKLaPPeN23]

The biggest thing for me right now (eyeing a new bike) is the missing e-start. I'm short and light, so I need to get the suspension re-done on any bike anyways. Also means if I tip over anywhere I always have a hell of a time getting the bike running again. An e-starter would help so much for that.

[@devincook3278]

Modern dirt bikes from any of the big 7 brands are very hard to complain about. Unless you're a racer gunning for podiums every single weekend, any 2023 bike is going to perform just fine for you... even if you have to Kickstart it. I'd also like to point out that you can buy a brand new RM-Z for the same price as a 3-6 year old ragged out KTM. And that makes the Suzuki RM-Z a no brainer for someone on a tighter budget. Spend your savings on suspension work and good gear to keep you safe and comfy behind the bars. I know everyone was dying to hear my opinion, so there it is. 😂

[@yukonjon5964]

[@jonathondavis170]

A bike is a bike is a bike - when new ones come out they aren't totally reinventing the wheel, and if you found one say 6k and threw another $6-8k (which is basically what other brands will cost you OTD with taxes and fees) you will have a stupidly good machine. Your skill, technique, experience, and fitness is much more important, cause at the end of the day if you have those you can really push any machine and find comfort! -That's why I bought the CRF450R-S (2020 Twin pipe remake)! I got a stupid deal on it, and it's no lesser of a machine, and now I've built it into an RX...I will admit that I'm kind of a hypocrite though, cause this machine was my dream bike and wanted to keep it forever...so I invested more into it than what I paid for it, but I wanted comfort at speed, reliability, and wanted predictably at the old age of 35. lol I'm already broken from 5 deployments in the military, Federal Civil Service afterwards, and Deep Sea Diving working in the oil fields of the Gulf of Mexico - can't risk a big injury with my TBI so found Showa A-kit suspension very slightly used (3 Hrs), and Art of War re-valved it for me, and Bundy Built Engines helped me next door...I'll never buy anything else again between that and my 2019 TM Racing EN300ES 2t - just rebuild, and focus on my riding & fitness! SO GO GET THE ZUKE! Twisted Development can make that engine a baddy for $5k, buy a Barnett/Hinson/Rekluse clutch, and get suspension revalved and if you bought it for 5500-6k you've basically paid the same amount OTD as a new KTM 450 and really will have better quality and power with the same money invested - just my two cents. And KYB, Showa, WP, AND Ohlins (and I believe MX Tech) all make suspension for it if you want to upgrade later. You'll never be a better rider than the level of bike you can build - your bike will ALWAYS be a better bike than you are as a rider! 💪

[@jpesicka999]

@@jonathondavis170 you're talking about an unprecedented upgrade here. A bike that hasn't been updated since 2018 being updated for 2024 is not comparable to a year to year upgrade u typically see.

It may not b the best bike out of the bunch but they r still good bikes. I don’t own one but we all know every bike out these days is ridiculously good. It’s not hurting Kenny’s season either.

I love his review of the bike, yes it’s not the best bike in all categories… i hear of so many people hate on the suspension, the power and other things saying how outdated it is, yet haven’t been on the bike yet… They all say no serious racer would use this bike, I’d say more people should because why go buy some Honda, Yamaha or KTM that costs many thousands more, just to rip off the stock suspension, mod the engine and do tons of other modifications/custom adjustments to the bikes? Anyone who’s fast enough won’t keep even a Yamaha all stock. They would spend the 11k on one, redo all the suspension, toss high compression piston, redo other parts of the engine, modify the frame and make it mostly an aftermarket bike anyway…. Might aswell buy the Suzuki, save money and toss all the aftermarket suspension on and do motor mods like the rest of people do
