Light, strong, and flexible tapered aluminium handlebars provide a solid grip and help absorb bumps on rough surfaces. The tapered aluminium handlebars are fitted with half-waffle grips that mitigate shock to the hands and are easier to control.

A new twin-spar frame is designed to provide stability and instil confidence, making the DR-Z4S an effective tool on twisty trails and green lanes. The frame is manufactured from steel, making it rigid, strong, and supple to handle rough surfaces and absorbs shocks to reduce rider fatigue.

The new DR-Z4S features a separate lightweight aluminium subframe which is strong to support the rider, and the lightweight aluminium swingarm helps improve tracking and rear suspension response, contributing to a smooth and comfortable ride.

The DR-Z4S is designed to not interfere in any way with the rider and their movement. Built to provide optimal off-road controllability with stability and comfort to ensure the best experience whether on paved roads or exploring an off-road trail.

Featuring adjustable KYB inverted front forks and KYB rear shock, with the base settings tailored for the DR-Z4S, which has 280mm of front fork travel and 296mm of rear wheel travel. The DR-Z4S has compression and rebound damping adjustment, front and rear.

The DR-Z4S is fitted with wire-spoked wheels, with a 21” front and 18” rear. Tyres are IRC GP-410, dual purpose, tubed tyres (80/100-21M/C front, 120/80-18M/C rear). Built to perform off-road or on it, they feature chunky centre blocks that provide solid grip and contribute to the model’s usability.

Front and rear disc brakes provide sure and stable stopping power, with a compact and lightweight ABS unit. Single disc is 270mm in diameter on the front and 240mm on the rear, while axial-mounted calipers provide performance and resistance to vibrations when riding over rough terrain.

The seat provides comfort and is highly durable to support the rider well when shifting body weight. Its narrow design makes standing easy and comfortable.

The aluminium skid plate protects the engine and adds to the DR-Z’s purposeful image.

Wide footpegs provide great control when negotiating trails, whether standing or sitting. These footpegs are fitted as standard with rubber inserts to optimise grip on-road and for great control, can be easily and quickly removed for better grip and stability in off-road conditions.

The handlebar switches are designed for easy and intuitive operation, meaning riders can seamlessly switch between modes without breaking their concentration on the ride.

The new DR-Z4S is designed to emphasise agile performance with a linear connection from front to rear. The focus was on establishing a bold horizontal line along the sides that cuts right from the front fender through to the tail. The strong image of this model is a major point of appeal for the styling. Ergonomics was the driving force behind every aspect of the design. By shaving away all excess elements, Suzuki visually expresses the functionality of the DR-Z4S and exposes it’s authentic appeal.

The DR-Z4S is fitted with an LCD instrument panel that is light and compact, featuring a clearly legible display.

LED indicators flanking the display include the turn signal indicator, MIL (malfunction indication lamp), master warning indicator, low voltage warning indicator, coolant temperature warning light, ABS function indicator, neutral indicator light, ABS warning indicator, traction control indicator, and high beam indicator. All are designed for easy recognition.

The LED headlight incorporates both the high and low beam into one bright projector module that is compact, light, and highly durable. Plus, the DR-Z4S comes with LED indicators on the front and rear.
