Really hoping to see Kenny jump on this thing, and Suzuki make a comeback.

The Suz is the small block Chevy in the mx world. Hard to argue with their reliability.

Funny because growing up racing the Suzukis were always breaking, grenadine engines left and right. Ah the two stroke days

You get some extra style points in my book if your at the track shredding a suzuki.

Now that Ken Roczen is signed with HEP, I'm hoping Suzuki gets back in the game on the stock side. I've heard several people say how good the HEP Suzukis are, but stock Suzukis need some help.

People don't really understand that Suzuki still makes a lot of sales even though their bike hasn't changed much in years and that's because the cost is low which is perfect for your average joe working a 9-5 job and just wants to have a bike to ride on the weekend. On a professional level when you get someone like Jamie who makes competitive engines makes this bike even more special compared to the other brands out there.

@@Davido50 I picked up my 22 RMZ 450 for 7200 out the door last year at the height of bike shortages. Had to drive an hour away to find a dealer that didn't charge all the bs fees but saved a few grand.

For the past couple decades (since 2001), Suzuki always had the best looking bikes, and the best chassis/handling. It's crazy what they could have done if they continued developing it.

The reason is people are getting weak and need that e-start button to compensate for their lack of strength.

Don't fix what's not broken! It's also nice to have an affordable 250f and 450f option out on the Market.

it's funnt that a battery company is sponsoring a video on the only mx bike that still has a kicker.

2012 rmz 450 pilot ere. looooveee the big yellow donk

In the90's and begin 2000 the Suzuki was susch a nice bike ill never forget that greatings from Holland

Give a stock RMZ450 a slight makeover, drop 15 lbs out of it, redo the suspension and add 5HP and it’s at the top of the class.

Would it be possible to know which sprocket size they use front and rear please?

Give it to KROC. He could help the brand revive itself. After all, he did say he's not in it for the money.

You got your "secret" tree this time!

Wow such an elaborate video....

I noticed they didn't replace the motor mounts with the titanium mounts to give the chassis more flex . That's a biggy.

All they need to do for me to buy one is add e start and update the engine a little bit and get a different fork and shock on there, or even put the 250f stuff on there, Suzukis look great to me and offer pretty good contingency perks compared to other brands

Why does the engine need updating. I have an 18 and the throttle response is amazingly very fast and responsive and free reving like he said.

If you say it is free revving, and more felt vibration, could it be they did away with the counter balance?

Why would you replace the stock KYB kit?? It's soooo much BETTER!!! And this is coming from someone with both kinds of suspension on my bikes - Showa on my Honda Red Moto CRF450RX, and KYB on my TM Racing EN300ES. Kayaba is the gold standard to me...I'm actually thinking about getting the Technical Touch Factory Kit KYB Suspension for my Honda...it's either that or MX Tech National Shock and Blackjack forks! DON'T trade the KYB - big mistake! Most people try to get the KYB to replace their Showa on the RMZ-450...just saying!

First bike I ever had was a 83 RM250. I’ve just needed a yellow bike ever since

So how come suzuki won’t upgrade their bike

the kickstart is funny to look at
