I will never be jealous of a bro that needs to kickstart a bike, pure caveman stuff right there. Not to mention yellow is the ugliest color in the alphabet.

The 2021's are out (well for everyone but Suzuki) making your 2019 three (3) years old.

"Handles way better than any stock bike".....opinions are not facts chief....and prove that it is faster, you got a Dyno in your cave?

Why'd my post get deleted? I had no idea these frail legged, sensitive betas were so abundant in an mx forum. Disgraceful. I rode my sweet new 20.5 f.e ktm this weekend with recent revalve and respring and the next day my p.o.s resprung 18 rmz and honest to Pete you haters are just skiing with each other. That awful rmz is a better bike. It actually has a fork, a snappier motor, the rear tire doesn't rub the fender when bottomed, cables and wires routed better, a progressive feeling clutch, no screws into plastic and torque values over 3 ft. Lbs. Wish I hadn't thrown 5 grand away. I'm silly for listening to these fuckers.

I love how you guys made an obvious troll thread into 5 pages of a yellow circle jerk. When you applaud a guy for getting a mid pack start....you know your standards are low. Not too mention the bro with over $10k into his 3 year old bike....with 13 hours on it...Please prove to me how it is better than any other stock bike...and how would you know? 5 hours a year will tell you very little about how a bike performs...

PS: Most of the guys kickstart their bikes in a dead engine start race...it is usually quicker.

Spoke to an ex suzuki team mechanic today and his comments were.. the suzuki bikes are a great option for 99 percent of people. The only concern for the elite level, from a disadvantage standpoint compared to the elite competition was the weight and engine characteristics. He said they were reliable, and a well built machine.

I just don't buy that argument. From a consumer standpoint, in most cases you buy a bike that will maximize your own riding potential and enjoyment. 99% can't ride a 2006 CRF450 to its max potential, does that mean that anything newer or more advanced is wrong to buy? It is pretty clear that for most people, there are better options than the RMZ. With that said, the bike is solid and you can get them pretty cheap (same can be said for other bikes aswell, Suzuki isn't the only bikes you can get with heavy discounts).

It doesn't really matter though, i think this whole Suzuki discussion is just a dead end. As long as people are riding and buying bikes we're fine.

Just to get back to the how old my 2019 is..... The brainiac Bobpa was trying to make a point that I dont ride my bike by using the denominator of it was three yrs old with 13hrs. I bought the bike in April of 19 that makes it 15mo old to me. Yes 3 full model years old . Shit!! Glad we got that all strait LMAO!!

BTW you haters I dont understand and mostly it the pumpkin owners and the white pumpkin peeps. Is it you paid 10K plus tax for a stock bike? And still got beat buy a 6K yellow kick start bike that "hasn't been updated in 10 yrs" Even knowing it was a all new bike in 2018! 99% of us on here cant ride a new 450 to its potential anyway. I also wonder how many of the haters actually line up behind a gate on a 450???? BC as a 54yr old moto guy that has been doing it for 40 plus yr. I actually learned to NOT to talk smack 21yrs ago as a mini beg on a 79 YZ80 when I got my ass kicked by a kid on a 76 XR75. If you line up behind a gate you have my respect no matter the bike,the gear, or how you got there! A true moto guy has had his ass handed to him more than once and is humbled! My guess the hater crap talkers are key board warriors and trail riders (nothing wrong with that BTW) In closing I want to list the reasons I ride a Zook.
1.I love the way they handle! Especially after I have the suspension done for me and my pref.
2.I like how they make smooth power with great torque
3. They respond to modifications very well and that makes them a great platform as a blank canvas.
4. they fit me good 6'2"
5.I have been on them since 05 (I have had them all and nothing bad to say about any of them)I know them like the back of my hand I know ALL the tricks.
6. Price. Usually can buy one 3K back of all the other brands Leaves plenty for personalization!!!

I'm just curious where you guys are getting these prices from? I understand the RMZ is cheaper then the other brands, but if you put effort forward the deals are out there. If you're telling me that an RMZ is 6k, I'd gladly spend the extra $1500 to get a bike with far superior build quality.

I bought a brand new 17 ktm 450sx for 7499
Recently purchased brand new 20 350xcf for 7999

NOTE: neither of these were leftovers

Plot twist, Suzuki’s been developing an electric MX bike instead of putting a starter on the 450? Would that put them back in the game?
