This 2006 Suzuki RMZ450 was an $800 Craigslist find. The bike was listed as "not running" at $1000, and the seller accepted my $800 offer. I picked it up in Manhattan, Montana. After a valve adjustment, carb work, and a general tune up, I had the bike running solid and ready to sell. Leave a comment below on your thoughts on this style of video! I buy and sell a lot of bikes that aren't full builds, and thought I'd share the process!

this guy is the chris fix of the moto world
I just came across your channel and binge watched about 3 hrs. Lol great work! You seem supper knowledgable for a young guy! I wish i had your skills, to work on my stuff! Keep it up!
Welcome to the channel! Thanks for the comment!
these early 2000's bikes were SO GOOD I wish more of them would would get this kind of treatment
I bought a 2007 crf450r brand new from the floor. Still has the really front tire and only has about 12 tanks of gas in it. I might sell it.
I recently picked up a 08 yz450f that needs some love. When I’m done with it itl be a new bike.
So true man I’m riding an 07 kx450f carbureted best bike besides the fact that there’s little to no after market support
Your videos are so thorough. I've been watching for 2 hours now without realizing it. The bike looks new. Outstanding work.
Glad you're enjoying :D
For putting holes in plastic try starting with hot metal rod ,then move up in drill size.Nice work btw and you show a lot of the work
Appreciate it!
step drill is best for plastic.
I have a love hate relationship for your channel. I do love the content because it’s great content, but I hate it because it’s great content. You’re teaching everyone how to do what you and I and many other have been doing to fund hobbies and now people are going to start doing this more and more destroying the used market.
Absolutely love your vids man. The effort you put in for the camera angle, the way you explain what you’re doing and just keep it interesting. Love it keep it up man.
Really appreciate it man, glad you’re enjoying the content!
Quick tip: instead of buying a jd jetting kit i recommend using a jetting calculator. They are free online and gave perfect jetting.
Well done dude. I learned how to rebuild my dirtbike w your and other videos in about 2 months. I have friends who have been riding for 10-15 yrs and can’t do more than change the oil 😂😂🤣
That's awesome! Yep, it's all a fun process to learn! Nice job!
This is the second video I've watched of yours, start to finish. Man, good job. Not only your mechanical ability but your video skills too 🤙 i think you're my new favorite channel
That means a lot! Thanks a ton for taking the time to let me know. Welcome to the channel 🤙🏻 funny enough, I just bought this bike back from the buyer. Will be making content on it again later this summer!
Great job and looks cool.
I love the characteristic whistle the carb bikes made 🥹
Finally someone who actually knows how to kick start a bike!!! Nice work man, the bike looks very nice!!!
Thank you!
Kind of makes Ken Roczen look like an amateur huh. lol
@@EarthSurferUSA lol sure does!
Nice work to taking the time to clean it back up.
defiantly earned a sub today !! good video bud!
Awesome video bro thank you
Good job on the bike it turned out looking good
Really liked how much talking and explaining there was in this video. Felt like we were going through it with you instead of watching a time lapse.
Thanks for the comment, really glad you enjoyed!
Glad I found your channel, love these types of videos keep it up!
Thanks so much!
@@KincadePavich no problem!
Awesome vid!
love the content dude keep it up
Thanks glad you enjoyed! More to come 🙏🏻
Lol great work! You seem supper knowledgable for a young guy! I wish i had your skills, to work on my stuff! Keep it up!
Nice work on finding the problem. 👍
Just 3 things. If it has spark at the right time, enough compression and a good fuel to air ratio---it will run.
Great how you do it all by hand sanding the frames and parts. Nice 1
Your videos are super cool and helpful
Great job ! 👍
This video helped me out with my 04 kx250f thanks
Great to hear! Thanks for watching.
man I know this video is old but I just got one of these and binged this whole video hyping myself up love your work keep it up :)
Awesome to hear!
I wish you were my neighbor. I hope I can do a quarter of this stuff at some point. I got a late start, sweet video🤙
You can do all of it. You just have not done it yet.
Hey man, I learned everything I know in the last 4 years on my own! You can learn!
Hey mate I'm from Australia and love my dirty bikes aswell love watching your videos I've learnt alot from them cheers m8
Nice job. Your workbench you built looks like mine. I used 2x6 on my top though.
Dude I just found your channel and your builds are amazing! That KX 250 was awesome when you finish. I’ve flipped some cheap Craigslist finds and this Suzuki looks like a great buy for sure! Lucky find man!
Thanks so much for the comment and glad you enjoyed that KX250 build! More to come.
Nice work
Such a beautiful bike I can't wait to get this Big Bad Bastard in my garage 💪 looking awesome Charles
Wrong bike! Hahah
Point your toes out when you kick! Ripping your shoes on the foot peg, pointing toes out you can avoid the foot peg all together and save your boots and shoes
I have been watching your videos for a while now and they have inspired me to try my own builds, atm i am building a bike and i would like to do more in the future tk flip them but was wondering if u have any advice on how, reallyreally big fan by the way
After seeing the results using those disc's on the buffer, I'm gonna get some!
I get a small commission if you use my link! They're well worth it! www.prymemx.com/?ref=kincade
impressive work!! Just one question, where did he finds those bikes? I want to buy 2 or 3, thanks.
Man just discovered channel and love it!! You know your stuff brother. Are you self taught or did you go to school? Keep it up and keep twisting the throttle.
Much appreciated, glad you're enjoying! I'm self taught!
I wish the restyle fit my 2005 rmz 250 looks sick I ordered some parts from pryme mx and love them!
With a graphite gasket, there is no need for red RTV. Well done on another re-homed dirt toy!!
Cool video,nice work,all day long I dream about suzuki's.keep up the good work.i would buy that bike for that price in a heartbeat
Thank you!
what kind of cleaning supply's are you using. I am trying to get into flipping and need something to clean up my bike before i sell.
I don’t know what it is Suzukis are just so fkn beautiful
It is hundreds of years of accumulated engineering and manufacturing knowledge. Isn't amazing what man has done?
Where did you learn how to do these adjustments and repairs. Very impressive.
Self taught over the last couple of years!
hey man great video! I have a 2009 rmz 450 it idles and runs good most of the time but sometimes shuts off when coming to a stop Do you have any idea what the problem could be?
Loved watching this video cool guy
Thank you!
Bro very nice video, you explained everything to the key loved it. Kind of makes me want to start flipping bike haha. Awesome job! Ps . How long on average did it take you to work on the rm?
Thanks! This was a couple years ago, I can't remember how long it took. Probably 20 hours or so total
i love the old plastics wayy more
“This is why I don’t kick my 450 in shoes” dude I kicked my 125 and that shit happened :/
What jetting did you go for bro, with your elevation
Very cool
That was amazing 🥲 bro
Glad you enjoyed!
Nice one
Great video man, I'm digging your garage setup. Good use of space.
Thank you! I've put a lot of thought into it and am always trying to figure out ways to make it more efficient. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Purr`s like a kitten. Looks great.
How did you fix timing?
That exhaust seal can cause idle issues?
You make it look so easy lol.
Learned it all little by little!
@@KincadePavich A good man makes a hard job look easy. :)
Cleary I'm really late but what is the book is it Cleary for rmz or suzuki or for all brands or just 450s... I would like to get one is why I'm asking... just bought my first ktm 525 exc & it needs work but I wanna do it myself even if I fail so I'm curious of the book TY in advance
What size heli coil kit was used, working on this same model bike atm and had the same thing happen
The same thread size of the bolt.
what Polish did you use bro ?
Where can I get that seat cover
Fair play that’s a good flip bro keep up the good work an videos
Thanks a ton man!
You just earned a new subscription bro , and btw don’t turn on the bike with the garage closed 😵💫
where do you find these users manuals for older bikes i cant seem to find one in english for the bike im gonna be buying
eBay or a google search to buy a PDF online
Did it come with pink slip
Idk if you’ll see this but I’d love to know the music that you put in the background to these videos
cool
Clearly someone went in there, the chain tensionner, bad timing and the shim being on the very loose side, usualy valves will go too tight from being run and not loose. Great vids!
I just picked up a RMZ250 and am wanting to get a newer front end for it. I noticed Acerbis, Polisport, and UFO have different shades of yellow. what brand did you use?
I believe I used Acerbis but I've mix and matched brands without color issues
@@KincadePavich I hate the batman type of plastic today, so I picked up a Yamaha OEM 2014 front fender for my 2019 YZ250 2-stroke, (yes, I had to mill in new mounting holes). Oh wait, I picked up 2 of them. Both OEM fenders were twisted very badly, and Yamaha stiffed the dealership because they were not in the original packaging, (to sell to who?). I have a manufacturing and quality engineering degree, and I never thought I would see aftermarket with better quality than a Jap bike OEM part. Outsourced to a 3rd world nation or not, Yamaha had their name on them.
Hey man, I don’t know if you still see the comments on these videos, but I’ve got a 2007 RMZ450 that I can’t seem to find the timing marks on. I was told the service manual for timing marks on the flywheel was wrong
I think I would trust the Japanese engineering before anybody else. They made the bike, and they are no dummies.
It is probably just different than what that dummy has seen before. :)
Love all Suzuki dirtbikes..RMs & RMZs! Ride yellow. You stole that sweet bike & def did all the important things to make it highly dependable for buyer. Encourage buyer to install $28 Acerbis hour meter for crucial maintenance! #Maxima
Shoe goo or RTV and your sneakers are good as new! ;-)
My dads having a problem with his biking dying after 15min of running and it has a noticeable exhaust leak where the muffler meets the header, would that be a possible culprit?
It’s a kx450f 2008
Idk why but I want an RMZ so badly, preferably a 250. I currently own a KX250f that is great, but I love these RMZs and I like an underdog bike.
Yeah people forget how good Suzukis are just because they're a little behind the times now!
My RMZ450 looked just like this when I got it for $400!
Haha nice!
what's the dimensions of your work benches you made?
My shop has changed, I now have a single 8'x3' bench. These were 5.5' by 3' and 8' by 2.5' I believe.
@@KincadePavich thank you
How did you learn all this…..I want to get into this very bad.
Little by little one project a time! Pretty much bought a bike that needed a little work, fixed it, and kept going until I had done a full rebuild. At that point I knew I could learn anything! Essentially, just go for it. Buy service manuals, watch RUclips videos, and go for it. Good luck!
Thanks man I appreciate your videos and your work is great.
Where do bikes sells that cheap?
Everywhere.. Just gotta look every day, all the time haha. Good deals last hours usually.
i have the same boots as you lol.
Heck yeah!
There’s someone selling a 2006 rmz450 but it’s locked up. He said 1200 obo. You think it’s worth it ?
Locked up can be very expensive. If it needs a head or valves that can add up quickly. If you want to fix it and ride it you should be able come out pretty well, but if you're trying to make money it's a gamble. In today's market a good running 2006 RMZ450 is worth about $3000 give or take depending where you live. Good luck!
Lha mboh opo ne po ngrti akj honda vs ducati
"looks pretty clean" unveils a total rats nest XD
Liam then turned around and sold it for 3k and made a quick 500 lol
Great video! Not a fan of the music though, especially when you are talking.
Appreciate the feedback!
Hey bro I'm from guyana and I really like dirt bikes but its very very expensive here so can you reply to my comment cause im interested in one of your rebuild.
$1300, OK How many hours do you have into it?
Since the engine is stock, why such big jetting changes? Are 4-strokes shipped rich like 2-strokes?
I live at about 5,000', so I pretty much always have to lean bikes out from stock. This was a long time ago, I don't remember how many hours I had into it honestly!
It’s uncanny
06 rmz450 in great condition for $5000 is this a good deal?? Please someone let me know!
Definitely not, way too expensive. Wouldn't pay more than $3000 for a perfect 2006 RMZ450 personally.
@@KincadePavich thank you for the info 🙏🏽 will see if he’s willing to come down
@@KincadePavich It won't be perfect. I would expect that even if it runs, there would be no shortage or pretty worn engine parts. Unless they ride as much as I have had time to,--not much. :)
It looks like a rm 250
Bro in america bikes are so cheap im from europe and that bike is like 2000€
super. привет из России.
You'd never get 3k lol
