Description
Click here for an VINData Motorcycle History Report on this 2017 Suzuki DR200S. Additional photos are available here for your perusal.
A mainstay in Suzuki’s small-displacement trail bike lineup, the DR200S is a model with lineage dating all the way back to 1986. And here’s the thing — the package was so solid upon its introduction that it’s remained mostly unchanged since that time.
For the engine, Suzuki opted for a 199cc air-cooled SOHC single. Mated to a five-speed transmission and an electric start, it was good for approximately 20hp and 14lb-ft of torque. Considering the bike’s svelte 278-pound wet weight, the output offered more than enough grunt to get you through traffic around town or over obstacles on the trail.
Elsewhere, Suzuki gave the bike a dirt-appropriate wheel setup with a 21-inch unit in the front and an 18-inch unit out back. Suspension consisted of a pair of telescopic forks and a rear monoshock, with travel coming to 8.1 inches fore and aft. As Total Motorcycle found in their review, “The 2017 Suzuki DR200S is the affordable motorcycle that can tackle a dirt trail or be a street commuter that gets 88MPG with its reliable 199cc engine complete with push-button electric-starting, telescopic front forks, a 3.3 gallon tank, and abundant torque. This makes the DR200S is the intelligent choice for trail enthusiasts and commuters alike. With sharp, competition-like styling, bright yellow or black bodywork with distinctive graphics, and a reasonable 33.3 inch seat height, this 278 pound cycle delivers the agile maneuverability and fun Suzuki is known for.”
