I'm excited about this update. Suzuki's motocrosser RM-Z450 arrives as a 2027 model. The highlight is the adoption of KYB suspension, and just looking at the spec sheet stirs my imagination about how it'll handle the ground. The fact that it's an update aimed at producing results on the racetrack, with the development team's real seriousness showing through, gets my pulse up.

Competition machines are pricey both in unit cost and parts, so upkeep is tough.
How many years has it been since the RM-Z got a full model change... they've been getting by on minor annual tweaks.
Just glad Suzuki's still keeping the RM-Z going at all.
Switching to KYB hits exactly where it matters — the intent is clear.
Honestly the YZ450F and KX450 are ahead of the pack — Suzuki's in a chasing position.
The RM-Z450 — is it basically just an unchanged engine with a suspension swap?
Does changing the suspension really change the ride feel that much?
