Suzuki Drz 400 Sm Review



    New for 2005
    All new for 2005 model

    Key Features



    Suzuki's new Supermotard model based on DR-Z400S - combines Supermotard style and features in a narrow, lightweight street-legal package

    Long travel, Showa-brand inverted front fork derived from RM250 - features adjustable compression/rebound damping and alumite coating on inner tube surfaces for smooth action

    A fully-adjustable rear shock absorber with high/low speed compression damping adjuster and aluminum swingarm for precise rear wheel control

    Strong braking performance supplied by a front disc brake with a large 300mm floating-type rotor and dual-piston caliper, plus 240mm rear disc brake with single-piston caliper

    Black-painted 17" aluminum rims and radial tires: 120/70-R17 front, 140/70- R17 rear


    Engine Features



    Lightweight 398cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled, dry-sump engine produces strong, usable low-rpm power

    Compact 4-valve cylinder head with 36mm intake valves, 29mm exhaust valves, narrow 28ยบ included valve angle and shim-under-bucket valve adjustment system

    SCEM-plated cylinder (nickel-silicon-phosphorous) is lighter and more durable than an iron liner with excellent heat transfer properties

    Forged aluminum piston is 10% lighter than a cast piston and receives additional oil-cooling to the piston crown through a crankcase oil jet

    Compact 5-speed transmission utilizes a cable-operated clutch with separate outer cover for simplified clutch maintenance

    Additional weight savings with magnesium valve cover, clutch cover, and magneto cover

    Smooth throttle response with a MikuniT BSR36 CV-type carburetor fed by 6-liter airbox. The left side cover has quick-release fasteners for easy access to the air filter

    Electric start with lightweight starter motor and a compact 6.5 amp maintenance-free battery

    Automatic decompression system for quick/easy engine starts

    Thermostatically-controlled cooling fan mounted to the left radiator helps maintain consistent operating temperature in traffic

    Chassis Features



    Compact digital instrument cluster with speedometer, odometer, twin-trip meters with addition/subtraction capability, clock, timer and stopwatch functions

    On-road legal lighting with bright 60/55 watt halogen headlight, compact tail/stoplight, lightweight, rubber-mounted turn signals and horn

    Narrow profile with smooth transitions between the tank, seat and bodywork

    Chrome-moly steel frame is torsionally strong with minimal weight. The backbone tube, front down tube, and steering head gussets form the dry-sump engine oil tank

    A bolt-on aluminum subframe helps reduce weight and simplify maintenance

    Chrome-moly steel footpegs, aluminum rims/hubs, plus engine guard and rear disc guard
