DR-Z400E Enduro (398cc) 2005
2005 SUZUKI DR-Z400E ENDURO
Genuine E Model | Full-Power Engine | Flat-Slide Carb | Lightweight Enduro
A great example of the increasingly sought-after Suzuki DR-Z400E.
Importantly, this is the genuine Enduro E model – the lighter, more focused and more powerful version of Suzuki's legendary DR-Z400.
With its lightweight plastic fuel tank, full-power engine, larger flat-slide carburettor and unrestricted exhaust, this is the DR-Z for riders who want the proper off-road version.
THE DR-Z400E DIFFERENCE
The DR-Z400 has earned an enviable reputation for reliability, simplicity and genuine all-round ability.
But not all DR-Z400s are the same.
The E model was designed with a much stronger off-road focus, shedding unnecessary road equipment and benefiting from a more performance-orientated engine specification.
This example features the desirable larger flat-slide carburettor, helping give the engine a sharper and more immediate throttle response.
Combined with the unrestricted exhaust, it delivers the strong, responsive performance that makes the E model such good fun to ride.
LIGHTWEIGHT & PURPOSEFUL
The specification is refreshingly simple.
A lightweight plastic fuel tank, no indicators and none of the unnecessary equipment that adds weight to a proper enduro motorcycle.
The result is a bike that feels manageable and natural on the trails while still being perfectly capable of covering road sections between them.
STARTS, RUNS & RIDES WELL
This bike starts easily, runs well and rides exactly as it should.
It's in good overall condition for its age and feels like exactly what a DR-Z400E should be – simple, strong and ready to be used.
These bikes have built a fantastic reputation over the years because they offer a combination that's becoming increasingly difficult to find: enough performance to be exciting, enough reliability to depend on and none of the complexity of a modern highly-strung competition enduro.
