Out of the Box
After winning the AMA Pro ATV Championship, Suzuki’s QuadRacer R450Z is even better in 2009, with a number of key improvements and a bold new black livery.
Helping keep the engine cool in the heat of the competition and maximising performance, the Quadracer R450Z now features a piston oil cooling jet.
An aluminium rear sub-frame combined with a lightweight rigid chassis and long travel front and rear suspension offers superb handling, as well as a more streamlined fuel tank and a revised rear brake pedal which offers more feel.
It has an aggressive, low and wide stance and stunning styling that lets everybody know it's engineered to provide race-winning performance.
The QuadRacer R450Z rewards you with blazing acceleration out of corners, matched by a flat-out sensational top-end performance. It's also designed to handle the nastiest tracks and come back for more.
The QuadRacer R450Z is not only race-ready, it's also designed to shatter the myth that high performance has to be high priced.
So don't just race - race to win, with the all new Suzuki QuadRacer R450Z.
