AMA NATIONAL MOTOCROSS CHAMPION • Thoroughly redesigned engine, chassis and suspension provide crisper, more responsive handling and more klw-end and mid-range power. • Redesigned twin-spar aluminum frame helps improve cornering performance. • Reinforced steering head area offers maximum rigidity, and new engine placement enhances responsiveness in tight cornering. • Tapered aluminum swingarm features a larger main beam, increasing rigidity and offering better traction and improved straight-line stability, especially on rough tracks and accelerating out of corners. • Easy starting, hot or cold, thanks to an automatic centrifugal decompression system and a carburetor with hot start circuit. New hot start lever is relocated to the handlebar for easier access when riding. • Showa inverted, twinn damping, 20.way adjustable rebound damping and 12.2 inches of wheel travel. The four-stroke revolution is real, and the RM-Z450 is the radical machine that's leading the way toward a new world order. And that begins with the RM-Z450 taking its place as the newly crowned "AMA National Motocross Champion." Credit for its championshipwinning credentials goes to its winning combination of balanced performance. It offers strong, controllable power delivery matched by remarkably lightweight handling. That means you're rewarded with blaZing acceleration out of corners and crisp, responsive handling even on the nastiest tracks. And, thanks to Suzuki's advanced four-stroke technology, you'll also find the RM-Z450 remarkably easy to ride - with optimum engine braking and easy starting hot or cold. So get in on the revolution - with the incredible RM-Z450.
