have tried to tell the Suzuki RMX 450 Z model history on this page
as I know it. This page is still under construction.
I would be grateful of any contributions — sales brochures, magazine ads,
magazine articles, pictures, specs, facts, corrections etc. Please scan the material
in JPEG format (large enough that all the details are visible) and send
them to me. Please tell me the source and the publication date if possible.
If you send me pictures of your own bike, please follow these
instructions.

Based on the iconic RM-Z450 motocross machine, the new enduro model RMX450Z features a re-engineered version of the legendary 450cc race engine, with fuel injection and added electric start.
As well as featuring the proven Kehin fuel injection system from the RM-Z, the new RMX is specifically developed for enduro action, featuring re-tuned suspension, enduro-specific gear ratios, lighting kit (thanks to its standard magneto generator),digital instruments (featuring standard and sport mode), sidestand and an enduro-friendly 18-inch rear wheel. |

Suzuki introduces the new 2010 Suzuki RMX450Z, a full-blown enduro bike made to tackle any challenging long-distance trails competition. Built on the RM-Z chassis, the new RMX450Z gets softer suspensions for easier riding in the woods, on steep terrain and over natural obstacles like rocks, mud and tree stumps. The Showa fork features rebound and compression damping, while the Showa shock allows for preload, high- and low speed compression, and rebound damping adjustments.
The 449cc, liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, single-cylinder engine relies on a modified inlet tract along with revised cam profiles to increase low- and mid-rpm power. Meanwhile, the upgraded 5-speed gearbox boasts wider gear ratios than the RM-Z, with an ultra-short primary drive for tight spots and a long final drive for superior top speed.
The RMX450Z offers all the specialized equipment enduro riders look for, such as a powerful headlight and taillight, a compact, lightweight battery, a larger magneto-generator, an electric starter and kick-start lever, as well as a PVC skid plate to protect the engine.
The RMX450Z, was Suzuki's first enduro bike to offer fuel injection. The model arrived in showrooms in spring 2010.
