Suzuki Drz400s Review
"The most dependable used dual-sport your money can buy."
Key Specs
Used Buyer Review
The DRZ400S is the cockroach of motorcycles — it simply refuses to die, and that's exactly why you should consider one. Suzuki built this thing with embarrassing simplicity: carbureted, air-cooled, bulletproof. I've seen examples with 30,000+ miles still running strong on original internals. The Mikuni carb does ice over in cold weather and the stock jetting is lean, but a $15 jet kit fixes that permanently. Buy one that's already been rejetted and you're golden.
