Suzuki Dr-z400
The Suzuki Dr-z400 has a top speed of 145 km/h (estimated; note: varies by variant and gearing), produces 39 hp and weighs 138 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.
Suzuki DR-Z400 был представлен в 2000 году как четырехтактный двухтактный спортивный мотоцикл с жидкостным охлаждением и эндуро, пришедший на смену старому DR350. Он быстро завоевал прочную репутацию благодаря своей надежности, универсальности и возможностям тюнинга и стал фаворитом среди трейлеров, любителей мотарда и новичков. Модель DR-Z400 практически не претерпела изменений с момента своего появления, что свидетельствует о прочном фундаментальном дизайне. Модель продолжает выпускаться в нескольких модификациях, включая версии S (для использования на улице), SM (супермото) и E (внедорожные).

Что следует знать покупателям
Bulletproof Engine Reliability
The DRZ400's liquid-cooled 398cc engine is renowned for lasting well over 50,000 miles with basic maintenance. It's one of the most reliable dual-sport engines ever built, making it a top pick for high-mileage buyers.
Watch the Carb & Valves
The stock Mikuni BSR36 carb is known for jetting issues, especially at altitude, and often benefits from a re-jet or FCR carb upgrade. Also check valve clearances, as neglected examples can develop tight valves that cause hard starting.
Strong Resale Value
The DRZ400 holds its value exceptionally well due to its cult following and discontinued production status — used models often sell for 80–90% of original MSRP. A well-maintained example is easy to resell quickly.
Поколения и характеристики по годам
Постепенно появились оригинальные версии DR-Z400S с жидкостным охлаждением с жидкостным охлаждением объемом 398 куб. см, однотактные, двухспортивные модели DR-Z400SM и мотарные версии DR-Z400SM.
"Самый прочный универсал, который вы можете себе позволить."
Я проехал три года и 22 000 км пробега на DR-Z400S, и он просто не ломается — двигатель почти до ужаса надежен, первым заводится в тепле, второй — в холодном состоянии, никогда не жалуется на небрежность. На грязи он намного превосходит свой вес: подвеска достаточно плюшевая для технических трасс, но высота сиденья в 920 мм позволит водителям с меньшим весом ходить на цыпочках на каждой остановке. Двигатель с карбюраторным приводом работает не только в заводском режиме, но только после того, как он выйдет из строя, достаточно просто опустить иглу и снять шноркелевую коробку. В запасе при скорости 7000 оборотов в минуту при правильной подаче форсунки он действительно доставляет удовольствие. Мотард DR-Z400SM — один из лучших инструментов для городских хулиганов. Он легко перемешивается, точен и достаточно быстр, чтобы поставить мотоциклы в неловкое положение в условиях городского движения.
Плюсы
Минусы
Минимальные механические изменения; обновление крышки топливного бака и графики; карбюраторный двигатель сохранен, несмотря на более строгие выбросы на некоторых рынках.
Отзыв покупателя б/у
"The definitive beginner dual-sport that experienced riders keep forever."
$3,500-$5,500 usedThe DRZ400 is about as bulletproof as dual-sport bikes get. Suzuki built this thing with obsessive reliability — the thumper motor genuinely laughs at neglect, and finding one with 20,000+ miles that still runs strong isn't unusual. That said, used examples often come with a history of abuse from riders who thought 'indestructible' meant 'never needs maintenance.' Check the carb for jetting issues, inspect the subframe for cracks from hard off-road use, and make sure the fork seals aren't weeping. Power is modest by modern standards — 39 horsepower won't embarrass anyone on dirt, but highway cruising above 70mph gets tiresome fast. It's genuinely fun everywhere else though. The riding position is commanding, handling is forgiving, and beginners won't outgrow it as quickly as they think. Experienced riders keep these for years as casual weekend bikes. Buy the cleanest example you can afford. A neglected bargain will cost you in carb rebuilds and suspension refreshes. Spend the extra few hundred dollars on a well-kept one.
