5/4/2026 10:47am Totally agree with this. I bought a left over 23 for dirt cheap and it is my favorite bike I've ever owned. It is stone reliable and at least for me, so much easier to ride than other 450's. The only thing I've done was bar risers and had the suspension re-valved...eventually just went with the 250 shock. All the...

Rode & raced the RMZ 2018-2019… Won races at Day in the Dirt, won bears at Mammoth…had a blast on that bike. That’s why I asked for it after the 2018 Shootout…I could tell it was simply an awesome chassis and an easy motor. Put a Yoshimura systems on it, ran the white-plug (lean) w/VP-R fuel, had the suspension done by Factory Connection and changed the ergonomics to suit me: bars, grips, Guts seat, pegs…etc. Put a Rekluse race clutch kit in it (no, not an auto-clutch). Ran good Motorex oil that I think Yosh recommended. Put some nice Dubya...

I agree with this, you can actually "grab a handful" on the RMZ and still be in control. And yes, once you get the suspension sorted, they handle great and hook up everywhere. Unfortunately I can't find the smoking deals on them that I could 2 years ago.

As an RMZ owner, no it’s not the best 450 ever built. It is however, the most usable, rider friendly 450 I have ever ridden. They are super easy to ride and the only thing that’s done to it other than suspension is a full fmf system. I can easily ride my RMZ twice as long as my dad’s Yamaha(which I love by the way) or friends Hondas. Haven’t ridden the new gen Kawi so can’t comment on those as of now. Compared to the YZF and CRF, those feel like they are trying to rip you around the track...

The Suzuki RM-Z450 dominated the first 10 years of four stroke racing. From Carmichael to Reed to Dungey to Roczen, the bike proved that it could win across multiple riders and multiple teams (RCH). The last championship was in 2016, and by most accounts (certainly here on Vital) there has been no development on the bike since then. And, yet, here it is proving to still be championship caliber, despite the kickstarter, and despite being run by a non-factory team. Now, do I think it's the best bike today? No. But, overall, across the 20 years of four stroke racing...

Should be. I think it was Webb last year but Roczen is older than Webb.

Kenny’s been my #1 guy since he came over. Saw him try to clear a triple with no run on a 90 degree corner from the inside just to keep a spot. He cased the shit out of it but he made me a fan that day. If he can pull this thing out it would be absolutely incredible.

Kenny finally getting a championship would be one of the greatest comeback stories in all of sports let alone sx. Would be so amazing if he gets it done. Not only is the comeback for ken one of the biggest ever but the comeback for suzuki would be just as big! Plus him winning on a kick start! Every part of this story would be incredible.

I’ve been hoping against hope that Roczen could finally get the monkey off his back and win a SX championship. Kind of gave up on that hope after Jett got into the class and Roczen got into his 30s. Would be an epic event if he could win his first SX title at his age!!!

-31 to -5 in 2 weeks? If Roczen can do this thing, I think it would be the biggest points comeback to win a championship. Man, he’s looking so dialed right now and he is good on dry/slick tracks as well… I just can’t believe it might finally be happening. Let’s freakin’ go dude.

It’s amazing how well he’s done on the “outdated” RMZ.

Not to hijack this thread but I have to add when talking about all-time "what if's" I immediately put Forkner at the top of that list. The only rider I've seen able to put it to Jett but needed to back it down 1-2% to keep it on 2 wheels. Sorry guys - let's keep it focused on Kenny. We can start a whole other thread on "what if's" but that horse I'm sure has been beat to death lol.

It deserves its own thread but I would have to say Kenny is the greatest "What If?" in the history of the sport. He got hurt when he was 23yrs old. 23!! A year older than Jett, for christs sake. I really wasn't even a fan of him back then, I rooted for Eli more. But when I think back we were robbed of even seeing him at his prime. The only other "what if" that could possibly beat it would be RJ. I believe he was 25 when his wrist got broken. We at least saw RJ in his...

Kenny could win all 17 rounds and I’d be just as pumped as the first win.
