Segment: Supermoto
Production years: 2013, 2014
The 2014 DR-Z400SM is derived from a dirt bike but has gotten a different life as a street carver. Starting from the DR-Z400S as a proven base to build on, Suzuki added road sport suspensions, supermoto rims and tires, and revised the riding position to a more aggressive one.
Retaining the punchy engine and revising the transmission yielded a bike which feels more nimble and which can also become evil when ridden accordingly. Simple, affordable and easy to maintain, the DR-Z400SM is the essence of supermoto racing in a street-legal package.
