Wouldn't it be great if Suzuki would just do a couple cool things to their RM line up, like just enough cool updates to them, that we could actually watch commercials featuring their really great, updated, motocross bikes, instead of seing the Hyabusa over, and over, andddddd over again..........

How many new Busa’s are they going to sell worldwide. How many RMZ’s are going to get sold? Suzuki knows where the money gets made. If Suzuki updated the RMZ who would buy them?

They probably will sell more Hyabusa's, but that's not what I'm watching supercross for.

It's nice to see Suzuki buying commercial time, and supporting the sport still. Watch the race, you see Suzuki on the tough blocks, the spider cam, and on the leaderboards. Even on the podium, Suzuki is behind the riders. All the manufactures are, except one. The orange one.

There is only so much $$$ to spend. Suzuki won the MotoGP title last year which I am sure cost them a fortune for R&D, riders and Team personnel. That is a much, much bigger championship to win than the the US SX title. The only way to get that money back is to sell bikes. The Hayabusa design is probably older than the RMZ, the 1st Busa was in 2001, it has had a refresh since then but not a major update in a while. It was due for a revamp. Maybe now they can attack the dirt side of the business.

That would be great! I work for a Yamaha dealer, but I think the industry is better with all the manufacturers having good machines out there.

Honestly, I'm just rooting for them.
