Basic Differences from DR-Z400E: |
| *Compact digital instrument cluster with speedometer, odometer,
twin-trip meters with addition/subtraction capability, clock, timer
and stopwatch functions |
| *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 |
| *Reduced compression ratio (12.2:1 to 11.3:1) for operation with
87-octane fuel |
| *On-road legal lighting with bright 60/55 watt halogen
headlight, compact tail/stoplight, lightweight, rubber-mounted turn
signals and horn |
| *Thermostatically-controlled cooling fan mounted to the left
radiator helps maintain consistent operating temperature in
traffic |
| *Dual-sport tires to meet highway use regulations (F: 80/100-21,
R: 120/90-18) |
Chassis Features Shared with
DR-Z400E: |
| *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 |
| *Long travel, 49mm cartridge-style forks feature adjustable
compression/rebound damping and adjustable spring preload for all
types of on/off-road terrain |
| *A fully-adjustable rear shock absorber with high/low speed
compression damping adjuster and aluminum swingarm for precise rear
wheel control |
| *Sure stopping power is supplied by a 250mm front disc brake
with dual-piston caliper, and a 220mm rear disc brake with a
single-piston caliper |
| *Chrome-moly steel footpegs, aluminum rims/hubs, plus engine
guard and rear disc guard |
Engine Features Shared with
DR-Z400E: |
| *398cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled, dry-sump engine produces strong
low-rpm power |
| *Electric start with lightweight starter motor and a compact 6.5
amp maintenance-free battery |
| *Compact 4-valve cylinder head with 36mm intake valves, 29mm
exhaust valves, narrow 28º included valve angle and
shim-under-bucket valve adjustment system |
| *Automatic decompression system for quick/easy engine
starts |
| *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 |
Key Features: |
| *Suzuki's industry-leading DualSport model that combines the
best on and off-road features in a lightweight
package |
