JGR's RMZ250 must have some decent power. A-Mart was able to clear that triple before the finish line quite cleanly. Given, A-Mart is smaller and was absolutely shredding the corners, but you'd still need some ponies to clear it like he was.

It was explained by Ricky during the broadcast. He said that there is so much power in the new RMZ250 that Alex Martin is now able to blitz the whoops instead of jumping them! It's almost like RC is paid by Suzuki to promote their bikes...Whistling

It sounds like the motor package this year is quite a bit stronger than it was last year. They don't seem to be lacking in power at all. I'll hopefully get to test out one of the 19' RMZ 250's here in a few weeks , as a buddy of mine is picking one up here real quick. I actually dig the looks of them too.

They look sweet. Those forks are a work of art.

I am sick of everyone complaining about him, but he sure is tough to listen to..

AMart looks great on the Suzuki. I hope he battled out front a bit this supercross season.

Almost like Jeff Emig was paid to promote Kawasaki bikes during his partnership?Unsure

Kyle Peters has been getting some good starts too. The RMZ's look pretty racy to me.
Maybe the bikes are just faster than some people think. Give JGR some credit for what they're doing with them.

They Look Fast to me , A-mart also said in an interview that
He feels like he fits this bike better than he did his Yamaha
Like it is more catered to smaller riders or people that like a smaller feeling bike which would make sense why him and Jimmy-D both look so good on it Smile

decotis and jbone have stated that the motor isnt that much better than last year. but the chassis is really improved.

a mart stated due to the chassis he is more comfortable blitzing now vs other bikes he has been on.

but motor wise they do look like they arent struggling anymore

People blame the bike way to much. Hill pulled a hole shot on last years 250 Suzuki. At the factory level all bikes have plenty of power to win.
