Suzuki Motorcycle India today launched their global flagship Motocross bikes – RM-Z450 and RM-Z250 designed specifically to promise an exhilarating off-roading experience to the riders. The bikes will be imported through the completely built unit (CBU) route which partly explains their high sticker price. The model range includes RMZ – 250 and RM-Z450. Just so you know, all these Dirt Bikes are not road legal as they lack basic equipment like headlamps, tail lights, indicators etc. and can only be used for racing or recreational purposes.

The kerb-weight of RMZ -250 tips the scale at 106 kg. The RMZ -450 – with an exceptionally high 960mm seat height – comes powered by a 449cc, single-cylinder, 4-stroke oil cooled engine and at 112 kg, it weighs similar to the Z250.

With the winning history of RM-Z450, the 2019 variant is powered with the 449 cm3, 4-stroke, fuel injected, DOHC engine for a faster yet controllable throttle response. It comes equipped with Suzuki Holeshot Assist Control (S-HAC) which has three selectable modes to choose the best option as per road condition. While maintaining the winning speed, the RM-Z450 is the first motocross bike to adopt new balance free rear cushion (BFRC) technology ensuring excellent traction and better shock absorption offering high responsiveness on the track.
