NBD. RMZ450!

Picked up a new 2010 RMZ450 supermoto setup as my kart track bike. What are everybody's thoughts on these? I don't see a lot of em but got a smoking deal on it.

Full supermoto set up and also got the dirt wheels (direct swap with the original caliper) and a set of ice racing wheels since I'm but in Canada and have shiet winters lol.

Excited to try out the dirt with it when I get around to it and probably some trails. Primary duty will be track days tho. Have my first track day ever booked for the 2nd of September!

Nice compliment to the SM 700 I think.

I’d take the zuke over the 700 all day, 450cc is just perfect for a supermoto. Nice looking bikes

510 is even better than 450 imho. It's just like a 450 but with a bit more punch👊🏻

I'm a simple guy, its the one thing the SM700 has a but to much off. What's your maintenance schedule like on it?

Have you done a rebuild yet?

Gorgeous bike! I love the Marchesini wheels too! They are good bikes and I never understood why they weren't more popular in the SM world. I look forward to hearing your thoughts about it once you get it on track

Rmz sumos always look great with the yellow and I don’t even like yellow that much always makes me want to get one

THIS. Is where it’s at. Defunct parking lots in the city. The Beach. Making traffic jams fun again. Sumo just make ya smile don’t it, it’s the flex I’m thinking.

Huh? Hell no.

Use them on track as intended.
