Default z-450 IS OUT!

In the new mag called Quad says it has it has EFI, three inches wider than YFZ and 450r, better shocks than any aftermarker company, and Gust and jones are gonna race it all stock. So i guess this will be intresting to see if it will hold up like they think in the pro class

While I would assume it will be, on most levels, race ready from the box, I'm sure Gust and Jones will NOT be riding it stock. And I doubt if it will come with better suspension than anything available in the aftermarket. It would be far cheaper for Suzuki to simply purchase a shock made specifically for the bike from a high end company like Ohlins, than to expand their shock department, and do tons of r&d that has already been done, and corrected by a company that only does shocks and suspension setups. If they are going to waste all the time and money to outdevelope aftermarket high end suspensions, they will have to sell them for all makes and model to recover their investment.

i have heard one of the 2 is going to be riding it stock, while the other one is going to ride it modded up. By stock, they mean stock suspension, engine, pipe, everything. I heard the pipe is supposed to be special or something, and that we would have to wait and see whats special about it. Remember, Speed = 95% rider + 5% bike.
