2018 Suzuki RM-Z450 | Dirt Rider 450 MX Shootout

The Suzuki RM-Z450 was one of the most highly anticipated bikes for 2018. With the bike not receiving a major overhaul in more than a decade, the 2018 model featured a new frame, Showa 49mm spring fork, a Showa Balance Free Rear Cushion (BFRC) shock, and revisions to the existing engine platform designed to increase power. With all those new updates it came in 5th place in our overall shootout.

The two-day shootout took place in Southern California at Pala Raceway on day one and Cahuilla Creek Motocross on day two. On the first day we had eight riders and on the second nine, ranging in skill levels from vet to pro.

Lol the new suzuki is one of the best 450s ive rode dont let these guys fool you just because they have no f***in idea how to work on or set up a bike. And honda and ktm probably pay them to bash on all the other bikes
