My mate has done roughly 85 hours on his 450 and its still going strong.
Iv had no issues with my RMZ450, ended up staying Suzuki when i decided to buy my RMZ250.

Im selling my 07 RMZ450, done around 50-60 hours as recorded off my mates hour minder (we rode at the same time so pretty accurate).

Its a bit rough but runs good.
In pieces at the moment, stripped it down to clean it up $4250.00
Ill put it back together for $4750.00

In Auckland.
Price is firm.
Pick up only.

It all depends on what type of use and care it's had mate.

They're in a pretty high state of tune, so do need looking after.

Because they have titanium valves, they run very light valve springs. These need replacement quite reg, as they lose tension quite quickly and then the valves will contact the piston at hight revs. The piston and rings should be done at that sort of time too.

Look after them and they're great. Don't and you'll pay the price!
