Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha R7 2026
So if you don't want a Horsepower monster but prefer easy handling and good feedback, the new R7 is sure to please. Very solidly built with beautiful colour variations, a smooth-running engine and extensive electronics, the little super sports bike is sure to find many fans. And the very moderate starting price of € 11,499 will add to this.
Suzuki DR-Z4SM 2026
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.
