= 398cc, 4-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, 4-valve engine shared with the DR-Z400S produces lots of useful torque, and features amazingly compact, lightweight and streamlined high-tech designs give full pleasure of supermotard riding.
= Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) plated engine's aluminium cylinder bore for durability, weight reduction and superior heat transfer.
= Dry-sump oiling system keeps the crankcases compact for agile handling.
= Clutch, magneto and cam covers all made of lightweight aluminium-alloy.
= Digitally mapped DC-CDI system monitoring throttle position/engine rpm and adjusts ignition timing efficient combustion.
= Compact electric starter motor and automatic compression release system for easy starting.
= Massive 310mm floating type front disc brake, same size used on the GSX-R1000 and 240mm rear disc brake shared with the RM250 provide h3 stopping power.
= Showa inverted front forks derived from the RM250 make for extra-smooth stroke action.
= Compression damping force 21-way adjustable and rebound damping force 19-way adjustable.
= Long-travel, damping and spring preload adjustable rear shock absorber also using RM's technology, and stylish tapered aluminium-alloy swingarm with a progressive linkage. Spring preload fully adjustable compression damping force 20-way adjustable and rebound damping force 17-way adjustable.
= Based on the advanced Dual Purpose model DR-Z400S, the DR-Z400SM's bodywork is sculpted as slim as possible, especially at footpegs, and features super-smooth transitions between major section such as fuel tank, seat, radiator covers, side covers and rear fender.
= Narrow, lightweight thin-wall chrome-moly steel tubing frame and a bolt-on type, aluminium-alloy subframe made for light, responsive handling.
= 17-inch high-grip front and rear radial tyres on the wide and stylishly black-coloured aluminium-rim wheels.
