Suzuki Announces Changes to RM-Z450 and RM-Z250 for 2007

[Rich Rohrich]

Looks like good news for the Suzuki faithful.

From Motorcycle Daily:

The RM-Z250 represents a bike that is purely Suzuki "from the ground up", representing a break from the joint venture with Kawasaki that produced the prior RM-Z250.

Rich I'd be curious to hear your thoughts as more info becomes available on the engine design. This is the bike we've been waiting for and as much as I don't want a first year model I can't force the kid to ride a 2 stroke forever.

so in 07 are they going to come out with an enduro version of the 450? something to go head-to-head against an crf450x or wr450?
