The link for the video release is on a Honda Riders Club of America website, it was posted by Pappy in another thread in this section.

What I got out of it was-major points that is, front remote rezzies, KICK start with the hot start button deal, the motor is about the same but has 1 more piston ring, bigger pin diameters, and some other beefed up stuff in there, I think it said it had a cooling fan, not 100% sure, dual row axle bearing, different tires, new look, kinda jagged, but not as pointy as the Z or Raptor...VERY ROUGHLY a mix between those 2 and the 400ex in my general opinion...extensive testing...blah blah blah, said a lot about the 250r and how they were really shooting for that handling and reputation but with awesome 450 4stroke power.

Sounds like Suzuki Z-400 is at the bottom of the heap now in such a short time. Short shelf life if you ask me.:eek2:

Suzukis coming out with an aluminum frame RM450 dirtbike soon so that motor will probably end up in a quad. Things are looking good for the sport.

Who is going to pay more for a Suzuki then a Honda or Yamaha ?
The aluminum frame idea will push the $10k threshold it could never be sold above those two.

[Dan_Guetter]

aluminum frame is for the dirtbike but the engine we'll probably see in a quad

I saw it at the HRCA web site. Its stout , sleek & not another clone of a sport ATV. Several new inovations over the Yamaha.:D

[norrisboat]

It looks like a lot of the aftermarket parts from the 400ex might fit on the 450(axle, a-arms). I hope. I dont want to spend another 3000 dollars to set up my suspension. Ill just have my shocks revalved.
