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.
Suzuki DR-Z4S 2025

The Suzuki DR-Z4S is an all-round successful comeback - not a shallow retro rehash, but a consistently modernised further development of a popular and proven concept. It remains true to its line: robust, easy to use, versatile and yet capable of many things. It is a bike for a small niche of riders, between hard enduro riders and adventure bike riders. For this niche, however, it fills an important gap as a true dual sport bike and hardly allows itself any weaknesses. The most critical points are the remaining 5-speed transmission and the high price. Whether these points discourage a purchase or whether the DR-Z4S is still worthwhile as a legend and versatile vehicle remains a matter of taste.
