    Sure, the technology on the 2022 Suzuki RM-Z250 is slightly dated when compared to other models in it's class, but the machine still has characteristics that we love and enjoy. We sent our RM-Z250 to Enzo Racing to have the suspension corrected and then paired that with an FMF exhaust system to liven up the power delivery. These simple modifications transformed the Suzuki and allowed it's positive characteristics to really shine through. Check out what SML test rider Rene Garcia had to say about the machine!

    Honestly, with a simple spring change front and rear, the 2.7 gallon IMS tank, and a spark arrestor muffler, I think this would make a freakin sweet trail ripper.
    No kickstand so you’ll have to find a tree, but it’s got good power delivery for trails and it’s a very simple and reliable design, kick start and such.

    If you add a vortex and pipe it really opens up the top end 👌🏼

    Within divulging Enzo's secrets, it would have been nice to add a bit more detail of what valving changes were done to the forks, base valve, midvalve, oil volume etc.

      See Vital MX video on it. KYB came out and dialed it in. Just needs a respring and some setting changes.

    Isn't the changes to spring rates just related to your weight perhaps the stock suspension was targeted at a heavier person?

    • @ryannafe9252
      @ryannafe9252 Před rokem

      Yes, it’s basically just new springs and a couple of settings changes.

    With the re-valve and respring can you put these KYB components on the 450? And would it be worthwhile?

      Shock won’t fit I don’t think and you would need the clamps for the forks. The showas are bigger

      @eminiscalperpro9729 Před 2 lety +1

      The 250z shock is perfect for the rmz450. Although I'm sure the suspension shops have now figured out the 450z shock. But yes the 250 shock will be a good one to put on the 450

    Would standard spring rates be ok for a 196lb rider? Or still too stiff?

    • @bocian8361
      @bocian8361 Před rokem +1

      I have a 20' rmz 250, i used to weigh around 200-197 lb's w/ gear. I set my sag and set the clickers out all the way and it worked pretty good since my terrain was very sandy. If i landed too short on table tops i would bounce upon landing. I also lost some weight so it's a little bit too stiff for me now.

      @@bocian8361 you adjusted the clicker all the way back? Did it make a big difference at all or did you slowly adjust it? I'm probably over 200 with gear maybe 205 at least how do you think it would be for me? It sounds like it's perfect for guys 210 or so lol

    What an odd video. Stock RMZ with an exhaust and revalved suspension (from your brother) is considered a “build”? This was not a hard hitting video and seemed devoid of any deep insight that isn’t already commonly known.

      i own RMZ250 and really it not need much more. It is very good bike with very good engine. Read less magazines test and race more.
      It is equipped with everything. Only thing what holds it back is superstiff springs ( in forks and shock) When you put correct rate in, your brakes start works ( and way better than brembos, because Nissin have superior "feel") and everything other things too.
      So, when supsension setup it need only rider and reward rider a lot when you see 2 lap to go board. Because you can ride with RMZ250 very fast when you are tired too.
      It is beautifully engineered very good racebike.
