Ken Rocsen 94 This year he missed out on several victories because his yellow Suzuki stalled and he kicked around for a long time trying to start it. It's time for Suzuki, install an electric starter, while leaving the kick like on all normal motorcycles. It's time to update it. I had a 2006 kx250 2t and a 2006 suzuki rm250 2t, all customized, I really miss it, I'm always a Suzuki fan.

The Suzi needs a redesigned engine - not for more power, but to get the bike's weight down into the 234 lb range. Unfortunately, that would jack the price up into the 10K area. I don't see Suzuki spending a lot of money on R&D on their 450, it's not likely they'd make the money back. That said, it's not a bad bike for anyone that isn't at the Pro level.

I'm surprised Suzuki even sells dirt bikes. I can't tell you the last time I have seen one, and when I do on the extremely rare occasion .. It's usually an old RM 2 stroke. Ricky Carmichael is probably rhw only reason Suzuki exists making dirt bikes fo this day. Without his crazy success on their bikes, I think they wouldve dropped off sooner and went under by now. They make good bikes, but they aren't even close to being competitive. Seeing Roczen on a Suzuki is sad. He is still managing to so well enough, but the bike is clearly holding him back.

What I dont understand is that back in 2018 the rmz was said to be one of the best handling bikes, if the frame hasn't changed in 7 years why is it now classified as 'too stiff'. Dont get me wrong I understand the importance of the suspension and is definitely one of the main factors for its stiffness, but this doesn't explain the fact why people say the frame itself is too stiff when it was once one of the best handling, and nothing changed.

I'm an old guy now but grew up riding Suzuki's predominantly. I started out on a '86 DR 100 four stroke (lol) and quickly outgrew that bike to an '88 RM 80, '93RM 125, and '03 RM 250 two stroke. I loved all those bikes. I loved the hard hitting power band and the "out of control" feel of the bikes back then. I tried the four stroke bikes today and I am just not a fan of them. Where people like the engine braking, I totally dislike that feeling and could never get used to the engine brake. I like the "free wheeling" feel and didn't like the bike feeling like it hit the e-brake when I let off the throttle to the point where I felt like I was going to eject myself over the bars as a result. Nonetheless, it is a nice bike and if I were into the 4 Strokes, this would be on the top of my list to buy.
