That RMZ is definitely a nice bike. He says $4000.00 into the JGR suspension , but it's one of RC's old bikes? That part didn't make sense and it's hard to tell if there is an actual A-kit suspension on that thing. But.....that bike does look pretty damn mean if everything he listed is on it.

Damn I didn't see that either. Bike is badass.......but so far from the lies that ad has in it ( mainly tying RC to it ).......I wouldn't trust the seller at all.

Yes very nice bike, but Why would JGR build a factory suzuki engine

"1 of Ricky Carmichael's" but it has Red Bull stickers on it and Carmichael is a Monster guy? Unsure Do all of the RCH bikes run Red Bull stickers?

"JGR suspension and motor"? Unsure
Does JGR do engine or suspension work for any of the other teams?

They must be into this bike pretty cheap to list it on there for $8500.

Smells pretty fishy.

Whats up with the seat
Looks like they tweaked the subframe really bad, got a new/old one, and put the same seat back on.

JGR does do motors and suspension work for anyone, problem is, they only do it to Yams.

You sure about that? They won't work on other brands? That would be a strange business model.

It also has a Millsaps training facility logo on it which is based in Georgia. I'd say Davey's mom never gave Ricky any lessons

You guys are all going off graphics... Uh, maybe they were changed?

Sounds to me that the guy probably bought an RCH practice bike (hence the RC frame), and then put boat loads of money into the bike. If you're at MTF you are meeting people with half decent connections, doesn't sound all that crazy. I have a hard time believing they would let a factory spec frame go, though.

I know JGR did Webbs CRF150 in 2011, maybe they still work on other brands.

Looks like a nice bike. I'd want to see some paperwork/ proof.

I'm interested in the polish transmission--didn't know the poles were into that sort of thing. They were still on cavalry horses at the start of WWII.

Well, at least they had something to eat, when the battle was over.

Don't frames need to be OEM to be legal to race? Frame, swingarm, cylinder....
