Video Description

Can you ride a Suzuki DRZ400 dual sport on the freeway? Like most dual sports, the Suzuki DRZ400S isn't really designed to travel at freeway speeds. Dual sports are also known for their "go anywhere, do anything" versatility, so the fact that the Suzuki DRZ400 wasn't really designed to do something has never stopped it from actually doing that thing. Ride along on my Suzuki DRZ400 freeway test as we venture onto the local freeway to test the DRZ400 highway riding capabilities. The DRZ does surprisingly well, even at freeway speeds. The bike has power to accelerate out of trouble and has no trouble keeping up even at 75-80 miles per hour. The DRZ 400 top speed is plenty high for freeway riding, and I think you could get it to 90 MPH fairly easily. Dual sport motorcycles on highway isn't always the most comfortable thing in the world, but it's not impossible by any means. These versatile bikes truly can handle anything, even freeway speeds. #drz400 #suzukidrz400 #drz400s --SUBSCRIBE- for more adventures, how-tos, gear reviews, and moto shenanigans! http://bit.ly/dorkintheroad Join the Dork in the Road Community Discord: https://discord.gg/euxEmd9 Merch Store: https://teespring.com/stores/dork-in-the-road-2 Check me out on Twitch! https://www.twitch.tv/adorkintheroad Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/adorkintheroad Twitter: https://twitter.com/ADorkInTheRoad Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=26709234 Want exclusive livestream perks?
