Bike of the month August '13

Dennis Garhammer

Hey Forty8 Fans,

yeah, this month it's my turn to present my brand new FMX bike. Unfortunately I broke my hip a few weeks ago right before I could even ride with it. Enough cried, let's talk about my 2013 Suzuki RM-Z 450.

Actually, the hole engine and frame is stock.
I've just put on a 51 rear sprocket to give it a bit more power right in the ramp. The suspension is a special modified FMX suspension by TKM Motorsport, for me it's definitely the most important part of my bike. To make all the tricks over the handlebars a bit easier, I'm using a little higher one from WRP. All the other changes are just optical gimmickries like the black frame, black swing arm, black fuel tank, black rims etcetera.

Finally I would like to say thank you to all my sponsors out there who still believe in me after two seasons in a row packed with injuries. I guess without Relentless Energy, Suzuki, Upforce and all the other supporters on my graphics it would be not possible to ride such a cool bike.
