Noticed that a buch of Suzuki dealers in Canada and the US have brand new 2008 RMZ 450's with brand new 09 engines.... Many are selling them for $5200+
I did not realize that Suzuki was replacing engines in all new non-currents!!!

Has anyone picked one up? how many 2008's did they have left over?

I have heard that. There was so many problems with the 08 bike they stopped production and all the left overs they put 09 motors in. Theres a place in WV selling them for like 5500 OTD.

My kid has a 2008 with a 2009 motor. It's has been an awesome bike and a great buy for those prices listed above.

yup the 08's had probs with the cases and poppin at higher RPM's so they recalled the 08's for a 09 motor retro fit, so they are essentially the same bike except for BNG's....
