Suzuki has put a compelling argument on the table for those who have been eyeing the DR-Z4SM: a i1,000 discount. The Japanese supermotard is now priced at i7,999, down from the regular i8,999, for 2026 model units.
The offer is available until September 30, 2026, giving the DR-Z4SM momentum in a market where it's increasingly hard to find a bike with its philosophy. We at Motosan have tested it, and you can read our impressions here.
Because this isn't just a naked bike with supermotard styling. The DR-Z4SM is built around that idea from the start. A single-cylinder engine, 17-inch wheels, adjustable suspension, and low weight form a package that's far removed from most alternatives in showrooms today.
398cc, 38 HP, and a Very Specific Recipe
Suzuki keeps a 398cc single-cylinder engine producing 38 HP. On paper, that figure doesn't impress against larger-capacity bikes that dominate much of the market, but it takes on new meaning when combined with the claimed 154 kg weight of the Suzuki.
The engine response can also be adapted thanks to Ride-by-Wire and the S.I.R.S. (Suzuki Intelligent Ride System). The rider has several settings to modify power delivery, plus traction control, including a Gravel mode.
In this way, Suzuki has updated a very recognizable formula without losing what makes the DR-Z4SM interesting: a simple engine architecture, compact dimensions, and a response that invites play. The relationship with the asphalt becomes clearer when you look at the chassis.
A Chassis Built for Cornering Fun
The DR-Z4SM uses fully adjustable KYB suspension and 17-inch wheels on both ends. The front brake features a 310mm disc with radial caliper, while the rear has a 240mm disc. But beyond the numbers, the package matters. The riding position, dimensions, and geometry aim to make the bike quick to change direction and easy to place on the line.
There's also a detail that makes Suzuki's character clear: the rear ABS can be switched off. The system maintains assistance on the front wheel but frees the rear when the rider wants to exploit what a supermotard offers. It's not a feature everyone will use, but it fits the DR-Z4SM's philosophy perfectly.
With this promotional price, the DR-Z4SM becomes an attractive option in the supermotard segment, given the shrinking number of bikes that offer pure, unfiltered fun. For those seeking a light, adequately powered, and characterful machine, this offer is worth considering before the end of September.
