For 2013, the RM-Z450 receives a lot if improvements, especially for the engine and frame, turning this bike into an even better choice for amateur racing programs. Multiple engine internals have been changed and tweaked, from the piston and its pin to the exhaust system, shift cam and camshafts, frame and suspension.
The bike retains its race-winning character, but it has gotten better, more maneuverable and stable during fast straight lines. With higher performance being the only goal, Suzuki managed to deliver a bike which is an even more serious adversary for the rest of the dirt field.
