Pros and Cons in comparison
Suzuki DR-Z4SM 2025
With its 398cc single cylinder and geometry, the Suzuki DR-Z4SM provides plenty of riding pleasure. Easy handling, height agility, decent acceleration. It is a real fun bike, especially in winding areas, on short distances or in city traffic. With the 8.7-litre tank, it can theoretically cover 256 km, but a stress-free 200 km to the next stop is always realistic. Yet there are points of criticism. At 9,699 euros in Germany and 9,990 euros in Austria, it is priced in the premium segment. At this price, we would have expected more: more power, sixth gear, quickshifter, adjustable levers or a more comfortable seat. The bottom line is that the DR-Z4SM is a stylish, agile A2 supermoto with reasonable maintenance intervals, which is great fun in the city and on the track, but still has air at high rpms in terms of price-performance ratio.
KTM 690 Enduro R 2024
The KTM 690 Enduro R is the perfect bike for riders who find a touring enduro too heavy, but a hard enduro too uncomfortable and maintenance-intensive. The new electronic features make the bike very accessible even to inexperienced riders. The smooth-running, cultivated engine, together with the perfectly tuned gearbox and overall gratifyingly low vibration level, also makes long tours possible without any problems.
