2026 Suzuki DR-Z4S

Welcome to the Suzuki DR-Z4S motorcycle specifications and showroom review for 2026. The new bike is the replacement for the popular DR-Z400 which has been around for decades it seems. Suzuki has been previewed the new model since last year but finally released globally in 2026. I have even covered the DR-Z400 it in the distant past, here and here.
The Suzuki DR-Z4S is a definitive upgrade with significant technology changes to essentially bring it up to spec with other Suzuki motorcycles. Updates include New frame, digital instrument panel, EFI or fuel injection, riding modes, traction control, ABS system that can be turned off and flashy LED lighting in road ready trim.
The Suzuki DR-Z4S is a trail bike still worth a look regardless if you want to use it for on road, commuting or a trail bike rider, learner or fully licensed motorcycle rider. The old model was also a bit of a legend due to it’s long mod and parts list and durability. Hopefully the updates will be enough for it to retain its title as one of the best sellers in the Australian market as per the DR-Z400.
