Review
The 2026 Suzuki DR-Z4SM marks the long-awaited evolution of a cult classic, bringing the legendary platform into the modern era. Its 398cc single-cylinder DOHC engine is now equipped with electronic fuel injection and a Ride-by-Wire throttle system, ensuring compliance with Euro 5+ standards while delivering a smoother 38 hp and 37 Nm of torque. The inclusion of the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) brings advanced features like the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS) with three maps and a four-mode Traction Control System (STCS). A new twin-spar steel frame and aluminum subframe enhance rigidity while keeping the curb weight at a nimble 154 kg. Fully adjustable KYB suspension at both ends, paired with 17-inch wheels and Dunlop Sportmax Q5A tires, reinforces its supermoto DNA for razor-sharp handling. Additionally, the Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) provides a lighter lever pull and smoother deceleration, making it an ideal machine for both urban environments and aggressive track days.
