DUALSPORT


DR-Z4S+ - The 2026 Suzuki DR-Z4S carries forward the legacy of the iconic DR-Z400S with a thoroughly modern redesign, blending a torque-rich 398cc engine, new twin-spar frame, long-travel KYB suspension, and advanced Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) features like selectable power modes, traction control, and switchable ABS. With sharp styling, LED lighting, and a slim, aggressive profile, the DR-Z4S delivers agile performance both on- and off-road, whether commuting or tackling rugged trails. For riders seeking even greater capability, the DR-Z4S+ adds Genuine Suzuki Accessories including a skid plate, handguards, and front and rear brake rotor guards, making it ready for any adventure.
MSRP $9,299
Key DR-Z4S+ Features
- For 2026 Suzuki announces the DR-Z4S+ that is equipped with Genuine Suzuki Accessories that include as standard equipment a rugged Skid Plate, Handguards (knuckle guards), plus front and rear Brake Rotor Guards.
- The DR-Z4S+’s engine complies with the latest emissions, sound, and fuel consumption regulations, while delivering the same proven, satisfying level of performance. High-lift camshafts with reduced overlap press upon titanium intake valves and hollow sodium-filled exhaust valves helps create smooth and linear engine performance.
- Equipped with Electronic Fuel Injection, the DR-Z4S+’s engine is fed through an electronically controlled (Ride-by-Wire) 42mm throttle body with a 10-hole injector that maximizes fuel atomization to help improve combustion efficiency and lower fuel consumption. The EFI helps improve engine response, idle speed control and peak power output, while also contributing to easier starts.
- The slim exhaust system has large-diameter, stainless steel head- and mid-pipes, plus a double wall silencer design to reduce heat transfer to the rider or passenger. The left side body cover has a quick-release fastener on the large-capacity air cleaner box, providing easy access to the air filter element.
- The Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) helps DR-Z4S+ riders optimize performance characteristics to suit their riding style, their experience level, and the riding conditions. The S.I.R.S. suite includes the three-mode Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS), the four-mode Suzuki Traction Control System* (STCS) that includes a G (Gravel) mode for unpaved surfaces, the ABS** (Antilock Brake System) with switchable ABS Rear OFF and ABS Front & Rear OFF modes for off-road use, and the Suzuki Easy Start system that automatically starts the engine with a momentary press of a button.
- The DR-Z4S+ extends the sound chassis reputation of the prior generation DR-Z400S with a steel twin-spar frame and KYB-supplied suspension. The engine resides within the spars, furthering chassis rigidity while the direct connection the spars provide from the steering head to the swingarm pivot enhance the DR-Z4S’ steering characteristics.
- The long-travel, fully adjustable KYB inverted front fork and rear shock absorber are easy to tune for the conditions while deep-block IRC dual purpose tires (21 in. front and 18 in. rear) provide optimum traction on paved and unpaved roads. Front and rear disc brakes with axial-mounted calipers are connected to a compact, lightweight ABS unit to match stopping force with available traction.
- The DR-Z4S+ rider will enjoy an ergonomically sound cockpit with tapered aluminum handlebars with half-waffle grips, wide rider pegs with removable, vibration-damping rubber inserts, plus a seat with a cover and foam optimized for comfort. The compact, light-weight fuel tank retains the prior-generation DR-Z400S fuel capacity of 2.3 US gal. (8.7 L).
- The DR-Z4S+’s LCD instrument panel features a straightforward, legible display that supplies real-time operating information and the S.I.R.S. systems settings. Popular features include twin trip meters and a fuel level indicator. All of the DR-Z4S+’s lighting is low-draw LED type, including the new bifunction LED headlight that incorporates both the high- and low-beam functions into a single projector module. The stator and rotor were redesigned to increase output efficiency, ensuring adequate power for the fuel injection and electric start systems.
- Minimalistic and sleek, the MX-inspired styling visually confirms that the DR-Z4S is an extremely off-road capable motorcycle. The bodywork’s emphasis on sharp, flat lines visually announce this Suzuki’s DualSport capability. Riders can choose the iconic Champion Yellow No. 2 / Solid Special White No. 2 bodywork or the stealth-like Solid Iron Gray plastics that blend well with the many blacked-out chassis components.


DR-Z4S - The 2026 Suzuki DR-Z4S builds on the legendary DR-Z400S with a thoroughly modern redesign, featuring a revised 398cc engine, new twin-spar frame, fully adjustable KYB suspension, and updated styling with LED lighting and a slim, aggressive profile.
