RACE SPEC: 2022 Suzuki RM-Z250 

I wish Suzuki would get it together , but that being said ,still think it is one of the nicest looking bikes~! that yellow and blue looks sharp~!

And here come the comment from the majority of ppl who couldn't even ride this machine to its fullest potential

I'm 160lbs, my suspension guy did a 4.8 front and (I think) a 50 rear spring with 103mm of sag and it feels awesome

Manufactures change their MX bikes more often than they actually improve them. This bike has seen very few changes in over a decade, and yet its still within a stones throw of being competitive with bikes that have seen yearly changes as well as some models that have been completely redesigned multiple times in the last decade or so. This bike is still a solid performer after all these years. Bottom line is if you race motocross you will likely have similar results regardless if your on the latest and greatest YZ250F or this long in the tooth RMZ250.

I feel like suzuki has a very great record for previous champs, Rc , Pastrana even stewart and reed . Its a shame the yellow machine doesnt get more love

Love this bike! Its fast an bulletproof. Im not a pro! Im a 40+ Vet class intermediate. I will buy one shortly .

Suzuki might be the heaviest bike and the slowest but after seeing what James Stewart did on his it doesn’t seem slow. It may not have that immediate throttle response that the yamaha, Kawasaki and the other bikes have but it stands its ground

Thanks Ping. You are the best!

In the beginning of the video you say these adjustments will work if you've bought one in the last decade or so...... they had showa sff back in '14, and I have a '17 with the kayaba psf2, and in '19 they went back to the conventional spring fork. I totally understand why yall don't care for the bike but maybe just try a little harder then redheaded step child love when making videos for suzuki

He is right on every word he said. I just got it and its overspung (I knew that when I bought it but i also know the package is good) and the damn thing will still turn like it's on rails! I am going to see my suspension guy this week problem solved. If you like it do not let a set of springs hold you back because I already love the bike.

I'm 6'4, 190lbs, and this is the first bike I've sat on that the suspension felt stiff enough for my weight and leverage.

Cool. No nonsense positive information.

Go the Rm, I love them.

MASTA PING DAWG 👊 Whats some good soultions for more power ??

Hey man. What helmet is that? Is it a new Troy Lee or did I totally miss that coming out?

Im buying this bike when ive saved the money because i just want to be a weekend warrior and then rip it up in the woods , have fun! I feel like this bike is the perfect bike if you dont care about all the speed and torque cus most of us aint the best riders lets be honest! Soften the suspension and ur good! 🤙🏼

Hey Ping when changing the springs, what oil weight did you use?

It's definitely not the machine it's the operator

SuzukiRM my 2nd choice pretty boy yellow.

Back Suzuki the Champions motocross...2022

Hey Ping, love that helmet ! Is that a new TLD model ? If it is, what is the model ?

C'mon Suzuki...show the mx bikes some love! Let's get some upgrades. On the positive, this is still a great bike and cheaper.

is this bike also good for trail riding or just for motocross racing

Would like to know what needs to be done to the mapping if a after market Exhaust is added does it need a vortex ignition

hello. What front fork settings do you use? how many clicks comp and reb? thank you guys.. :-)

where can you buy the recomended springs ?

Hey that's the gear that reads, well I bet you know what it reads lol. I thought they pulled that kit!

I’m a vet B rider and surprise I like softer ride But I’m 195 would this work for me or keep stock springs? Thanks Ping! 👍

If you can ride don't matter the bike.

i'll disagree on the great deals, at least in my area. I can get a left over 21 yz250f for 7999 or a 21 kx250 for 7299. 22 rmz250 is 7899 in my neck of the woods. then i have to spend money to change springs? naw. if they were like 6799 no doubt.

When was the last 250 win on a Suzuki? Would have to be Anderson? He's almost retired....

once they get the E.Start on the rmz they will be hundreds more than nowadays,... but idk what the hell are they doing, oh wait, nothing...

Why the hell do you guys use imperial measurements for body weight, height, speed, distance, etc.. and then use newtons for spring rate? Not criticising, just confused..

Worst part is I’m thinking about getting one and I’m 105

Why🤦?

They are great, and yes softer springs solves the issue. But when will they spend on R+D to get 8 pounds off it and an electric start? They cant get 8 pounds off it coz its got a beam frame. Please Suzuki go back to steel KTM style frame. I dont know why the Japanese wont do it, Herlings, Cairoli, Webb are winning championships on them so they definately strong enough !! What is the obsession with an aluminium frame, it just makes them heavier?

I need a new bike simce getting parts sucks right now

Hah hah haa,museum bike!

what filosofi suzuki . but rmz . numero unO for me . .suzuki just neEd ridEr level a like james roczen webb

Sometimes I forget Suzuki is a brand in mx

I'm only 138lbs and fast as a mutha, so a bike being 7-8lbs too heavy isn't that big of a deal. Until they bring back the steel frame, have to work with what we have. I wish they would all go 3-4 yrs without upgrades, let people have time to adjust to the bike and not waste God's precious resources. We're just wanting to have a good time and I could still have a blast on my 1983 Rm125, if they still made them and boy bring back my brand new stock 1986 Honda Cr125 or Cr500 and let the fun begin... I mean these 4 strokes have been around for a LONG time and every year people complain about something. The cost of these bikes have gone nuts, slow down some and keep the price down, unless your making 3 mill a year racing one..

Eventually all of these bikes will be gone, Euro 5 along with other things 'emissions'. Doubt they will make a bike in 2023. Or others who knows future does not look good.

Buy an outdated bike and then throw more cash at it? Easier to just buy a better bike from the start.

It will be useful for anyone who has bought one in the last decade.... that is when I decided to not watch this lol
