2023 Suzuki DR-Z400SM, 2023 Suzuki DR-Z400SM <p>Suzuki's 2023 SuperMoto DR-Z400SM is based on the proven DR-Z400S. So it combines Supermotard style and features in a narrow, lightweight, street-legal package. This bike brings off-road soul and fun to paved roads. It’s not uncommon to take the SuperMoto down a twisty forest road, around tight canyon corners, or through commuter traffic.</p><p>Its 398cc, liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine provides strong low-rpm torque and crisp throttle response for any of these occasions. Key differences between the DR-Z400SM and the DR-Z400S are the inverted front fork, wide spoke-style wheels, and 300mm diameter floating front brake rotor. The inverted fork contributes to less unsprung weight and improved overall handling, while the large brake and wider rims with high-grip tires offer an exhilarating sportbike experience.</p><p><strong>Features may include:</strong></p><ul><li>Suzuki's Supermotard model, based on the proven DR-Z400S, combines Supermotard style and features in a narrow, lightweight, street-legal package</li></ul><ul><li>Versatile and strong, 398cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled, dry-sump engine has push-button starting</li></ul><ul><li>SuperMoto boasts fully adjustable MX-style suspension plus high-grip sportbike tires on strong spoke wheels featuring anodized, aluminum Excel rims</li></ul><ul><li>The new Grand Blue and Solid Black or the returning Solid Special White No. 2 bodywork with angular graphics complement the motorcycle’s styling.</li></ul><strong>Engine</strong><ul><li>Lightweight, 398cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled, dry-sump engine produces strong, tractable power.</li></ul><ul><li>Compact, four-valve cylinder head has 36mm intake valves, 29mm exhaust valves, narrow 28-degree included valve angle, and shim-under-bucket valve adjustment system.</li></ul><ul><li>Simple electric starting is powered via a lightweight starter motor with an automatic mechanical decompression system.</li></ul><ul><li>SCEM-plated cylinder (nickel-silicon-phosphorus) is lighter and more durable than an iron liner and has excellent heat transfer properties.</li></ul><strong>Transmission</strong><ul><li>Compact, five-speed transmission utilizes a cable-operated clutch with a separate magnesium outer cover for simplified clutch maintenance.</li></ul><ul><li>Low-maintenance, long-life, sealed O-ring type drive chain produces minimal sounds when riding.</li></ul><strong>Chassis</strong><ul><li>Wide, blue- or black-anodized RK Excel aluminum rims with stainless steel spokes are fitted with sporty radial tires: 120/70-R17 front and 140/70-R17 rear.</li></ul><ul><li>Strong braking performance is supplied by a front disc brake with a large 300mm floating-type rotor and dual-piston caliper, plus a 240mm rear disc brake with a single-piston caliper.</li></ul><ul><li>Long travel, Showa inverted front fork is derived from the RM250 and features adjustable compression/rebound damping and a special coating on inner tube s
