Suzuki's - Studs or Duds?

by Trent
(New Zealand)

It's funny cause so many people seem to knock Suzuki's saying that they're low quality and inferior to all the other bike manufacturers. Yet they are winning World Championships (Ryan Dungee is carving up on one) and have done for years. Here in N.Z they are cheaper brand new (and second hand) than the other Jap and Euro bikes yet I reckon they're awesome bikes to ride.





The 2010 RMZ 450 won the shoot out in the ADB (Australasian Dirt Bike Magazine) and the little RM 80 got big ups just recently for the mini shoot out even though it hasn't been improved upon for years and it was competing against a modern KTM 85.

I've owned 2 Suzuki's and think they're minties. What does anyone else think about them?

Duds Not Studs
by: Anonymous

I owned a vintage 2 stroke 250, excellent bike, could not fault it. Bought a 2010 rmz250 - 35 hours and up for a total rebuild. When I say total I mean everything. If I could get a brand new motor it might be cheaper. Head, valves, cams, piston, rings, crank, conrod = $4200 in parts + another $1000 to put it back together. No aftermarket parts avaliable.

- Definitely a dud. Ewwww..
