    Default 2013 RMZ450




    I think it looks good, but does anyone else find it lame that Suzuki has kept the same look on the 450 for going on the 6th year now?? Starting to look a little dated.. KTM has updated their two stroke more than Suzuki has their 450...... (body styling wise)

    Love the zook, just can't give us what Yamaha or Honda can as far as cost of bikes, parts and service work. If there was a dealer around that could, we would be on a Suzuki. Always had good luck on them.....

    "Best bike ever made" That may be a stretch.. Im sure there are plenty of people on here that would argue with that statment. I've never owned one but I know they are good bikes; it would just be cool to see some new plastic's or something to change the look up a little.. 6 years of the same thing is a long time..

    Suzukis are slow. They handle great, but perfect, far from it. I weigh 220 and my honda would pull away from my 140lb soaking wet friend on his RMZ. Some ppl need hp.

    A stock Suzuki 450 or any 450 is more than fast enough for 99.9% of people who ride. Most people ride with smoked clutches anyway. No bike is fast with a hammered clutch, not even JS7s. The Suzuki is just as fast as a Honda

    I just came off of an 11' 450 Honda onto the 12' RMZ 450 and what a huge difference. The Suzuki pulls harder and handles much better ... IMHO. Getting the suspension done right now and can't wait to ride with it being sprung to my weight.
