Product Features
Description
Powerered by a torquey, fuel-injected, 449cc engine, the 2019 RMX450Z is the motorcycle that's ideal for serious off-road work or just a fun day on the trails. Everything you need to take the lead off road is here, starting with the slim, aggressively-styled chassis and bodywork. Toss in the push-button electric starter, the full-function, two-mode instrument cluster, and enduro lighting, and you have the conveniences that take the worry out of your ride. Sharing core engine and chassis technology--plus new bodywork colors and graphics--with Suzuki's Championship-winning open-class motocrosser, the RMX450Z rewrites the rules for serious trail riders.
Key Features
- Fuel-injected engine is based on Suzuki's winning open-class motocrosser, the RM-Z450.
- The RMX450Z is EPA Emissions and California red sticker compliant.
- Trail-ready features include an electric starter powered by a compact battery (plus kick-start back-up), a coolant reservoir tank, and an engine protector plate.
- Enduro ready, full-function instrument cluster includes a low fuel level warning light.
- The airbox features a hinged lid for quick air filter maintenance.
- Aluminum alloy twin-spar frame features a high-performance Showa fork and piggyback reservoir style rear shock.
- Competition-developed seat and slim bodywork creates a controllable, ergonomic riding position.
- The racing-inspired bodywork and new graphics for 2019 include a sturdy steering stem that is anodized black, complementing the gold fork leg finish.
- Black anodized Excel aluminum rims are ready to withstand rugged off-road conditions.
Engine Features
- The RMX450Z's 449cc, four-stroke, four-valve, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, DOHC power plant is based on the high-performance and reliable RM-Z450.
- Minimal differences as compared to the RM-Z450 motocross engine include a modified inlet tract and revised cam profiles to increase low- and mid-rpm power.
- The compact aluminum cylinder is finished with Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) coating for durability, light weight, and efficient heat transfer.
- A larger magneto generator is fitted to charge the battery and power the lights. The increased mass on the crankshaft also aids traction.
- Advanced fuel injection system makes for extra-smooth power delivery, high fuel efficiency, and superb reliability.
- The airbox features a hinged lid for quick air filter maintenance and better protection from debris.
- The coolant reservoir tank has a specially located filler cap for easy access.
Transmission Features
- Strong five-speed transmission with wide gear ratios and primary/final drive ratios have been selected to suit various situations from steep trails to open terrain.
Chassis Features
- The aluminum alloy twin-spar frame combines cast and extruded sections to achieve low weight with high rigidity and durability.
- RM-Z450-derived trail-ready suspension uses high-performance Showa forks with full adjustability.
- Aluminum link-style swingarm is descended from the RM-Z line and uses a fully adjustable Showa piggyback reservoir style rear shock.
- Rear suspension linkage geometry combines the RM-Z series' renowned turning-on-rails abilities with optimized handling performance for trail rides.
- Race-inspired waved disc rotors are mounted to black Excel aluminum rims with stainless steel spokes.
- High-impact, black plastic fork leg and rear brake rotor and caliper protectors shield these components from trail obstacles.
- The standard Renthal Fatbar is stronger and reduces vibration better than conventional aluminum handlebars.
- Bright 35-watt headlight is smoothly incorporated into the front number plate.
- Trim, low-draw LED tail light is neatly tucked under the lip of the rear fender.
- The full-function, dual (sport/standard) mode instrument cluster is in a durable, ultra-compact housing. Sport mode simply shows timer, tripmeter, average speed, and tire-diameter correction (to reduce information during spirited riding or competition). Standard mode also shows speed, time, two trip lengths, and voltage. The instrument's integrated tire diameter calculator allows precise fine-tuning for different tires to ensure accuracy of the speed and distance displays. Instruments include a low fuel level warning light.
- Champion Yellow bodywork (including yellow fenders and white front number plate) comes with race team-inspired graphics package.
- Gripper seat, with projected cross-shaped patterns on its blue top surface, aids rider control.
Additional Features
- Six-month limited warranty. Longer coverage periods with other benefits are available through Suzuki Extended Protection (SEP).
- A variety of Genuine Suzuki Accessories for RMX450Z owners are available, including a large selection of Suzuki logo apparel.
