Suzuki's RM Army Boot Camp is Back, Go Learn the Fundamentals

Motocross can be a bit intimidating, especially for the everyday rider. It’s easy to feel like an outsider when the spotlight’s always on factory-backed pros tearing up the track aboard the latest high-tech machines. The bar keeps rising—new bikes with gizmos like traction control, smart suspension, and on-the-fly map switches. It’s cool to watch, but for the average rider? It can feel like you’re playing a different game entirely.

That’s where Suzuki steps in with something refreshingly different.

With the return of the RM Army Boot Camp for 2025, Suzuki is leaning into its role not as the loudest or flashiest player in motocross, but as the most down-to-earth. Think of it like this: if motocross brands were people at a family BBQ, Suzuki would be that Gen X uncle—you know, the one who’s seen it all, knows his stuff, doesn’t try too hard, and is always ready to lend a hand or share a tip with the younger crowd. He may not be out there doing backflips or chasing likes on social media, but when he speaks, people listen. Because he’s got history. He’s got cred.

The RM Army Boot Camp captures that vibe perfectly. It’s a free, hands-on track day for Suzuki RM and RM-Z owners, where you get access to real-deal factory racing insight—not through a screen or a magazine article, but right there on the dirt with you. You get to hang out with the Pipes Motorsports Group (PMG) SuperMotocross team, ask questions, tweak your setup, and ride with folks who genuinely want to help you get better.

And that’s the thing. This isn’t about flexing. Suzuki isn’t trying to outshine the competition with next-gen tech or million-dollar sponsorships. Instead, they’re doubling down on their legacy and their loyal riders. It’s about keeping it real—showing up, offering support, and building community.

With 50 years of RM heritage behind them, Suzuki’s earned their place in the dirt. They may not be updating the RM-Z every season, but they’re still in the game—and they’re proving that sometimes, what riders need most isn’t a brand-new feature, but a brand that shows up, shares knowledge, and helps you ride with more confidence.

The RM Army Boot Camp is that rare combo of useful and fun. You learn from the pros, meet other riders, and leave with your bike—and your brain—tuned a little better than before. It’s not just about chasing podiums. It’s about enjoying the ride, improving your skills, and being part of something bigger than yourself.

In a sport that can feel a bit high-stakes and high-dollar, Suzuki’s approach is a welcome throwback to when motocross was just about having fun and learning from those around you. And honestly? That might be the coolest flex of all.
