What happens when you take Suzuki’s all-new, high-tech dual sport to one of the most legendary motocross tracks in the world? You get a high-altitude Masterclass in versatility!
This week, we headed up to 8,000 feet to put the 2025 Suzuki DR-Z4S to the ultimate test at the iconic Mammoth Motocross track. While most riders were on pure-bred race machines, we decided to see if the new “Z” could truly do it all.
From the infamous “Uphill” to the deep, volcanic sand of the back section, the DR-Z4S proved that it’s more than just a commuter with knobbies. The updated fuel injection and refined suspension handled the elevation and the rough terrain with a level of poise that genuinely surprised us.
Whether you’re looking to tackle your local trails or dreaming of high-altitude adventures, this video shows exactly why the DR-Z4S is the new benchmark for the middleweight dual-sport category.
