Yes I know another "spoke with my wallet" but I couldn't turn down the deal at the dealership! My new 2016 RMZ250. For me, I've always loved Suzukis plus I wanted to try a 4 stroke hence how I never owned one. Any tips or suggestions please comment them!

Well congrats!! But you better change your name to DerickRM!!
Have fun on her. I always thought the RM's / RM'Zs had some of the best chassis out there. Very comfortable and great handling bikes.

These threads haven't been delivering. I keep coming to see a new 2 stroke and instead see a 4 stroke. I guess the phrase has taken a new meaning.
Congratulations on the new bike.

Thank you! I have a '15 TC250 with 15 hours on it, just to scream it here and there

Great bike congrats,. Imo depending on budget,. First get suspension setup for you, revalved , sprung. Bars of choice, new grips and throttle tube lol. Then frt rotor and braided line, full fmf rct or yosh., Remap or vortex. T4 vp fuel. Remove air filter cage, Moto tassanari air boot. Fresh tires, chain and sprockets. Go rip it. And of course wheelset for bling

Hope the Suzuki dealer didn't offer any tampons like the Honda dealer did in the thread earlier this week.
Kidding aside, congrats on the bike! The 05 I had is on the list of bikes I regret selling.

After this season I'm going to send the suspension out for revalving and such! I might slap a Yosh system, OS front rotor, and some other small things

nope, people are just posers. they say shit they think makes them a part of something, even if they don't know what the hell they are saying.
i could be wrong. maybe this guy hates 2 strokes and he actually is "speaking with his wallet". but i doubt it.

After a dozen years of buying only new 250F's and 450's and a couple of basket-case used YZ250's in there, I finally spoke with my wallet the other day... I've never had a new two stroke or small-bore two stroke, so I killed two birds with one stone and I've never been this excited. I've also bled blue for years, but wanted to support a company that's still developing their 2t's.

Killer bike, and reliable as hell!! 50t rear sprocket, a full Yosh system and this bike is a different animal. As for the front forks, the spring conversion is an option if you can't get the air forks working consistently. Have fun, they're a very underrated bike.
