The smallest ever Suzuki off-road two wheeler to feature a four-stroke engine is being released in the UK later this month, as the DR-Z70 junior bike arrives at authorised Suzuki dealers.

Joining Suzuki’s junior fun range, the new DR-Z70 brings the four-stroke experience to first-time riders, with a novice friendly 3-speed automatic transmission in a lightweight, easy to manouvre chassis.

Upon announcing the DR-Z70, Suzuki GB’s Steve Callahan commented, “It’s all too easy for manufacturers to neglect this segment of the market, but in reality it’s the most important area if we are to attract newcomers to the sport. With the increasing use of four-strokes, the DR-Z70 is a great introduction to off-road riding, and at a great price too”.

Joining the existing JR50, JR80 and DR-Z125 machines, the new 70 will have a suggested retail price of £995 and will be available from any authorised off-road Suzuki dealer.
