One question I get pretty often lately is "is the Suzuki DRZ400 a good first motorcycle?" People often wonder if it is a good motorcycle for beginners. The answer, like all things, is complicated. The best beginner motorcycle should, in my opinion, do two things. It should both be easy enough for a new motorcycle rider to handle and ideally be more than a good beginner bike but also be something that an experienced motorcycle rider can enjoy. The Suzuki DRZ400S and Suzuki DRZ400SM do well in both of these categories.

The DR-Z 400 has an above-average seat height, and this can be intimidating for newer riders who struggle to get their feet down. Likewise, the DRZ400S and DR-Z 400SM are very torquey bikes, which can get a beginning motorcycle rider into trouble if they're not careful. Despite this, though, I believe that the DRZ is a good beginner bike and one that can last you a very long time. Like all dual sport motorcycles, it's cheap and easy to maintain, insanely versatile, and capable of taking you anywhere you want to go, on road or off. Overall, it is a very good motorcycle for beginners and an excellent first motorcycle.
