2004 Suzuki DR200SE Sport Bike reviews

I bought it May 29th 2005 and since put about 3600kms. So far always started runs excellent... very reliable. I followed all procedures including the break-in and found the bike to be running as strong as when I bought it. This bike is good for all terrain depending on rider skill. Unfortunately it doesn't come with a tachometer, so for all you asking where does 5th gear end.. well it's 115kmph if acheivable, according to the Suzuki technical department in Ontario. Needless to say it's not the highway bike of choice, but for someone beginning to ride ( around town ) this is the bike ( THE BIKE ). Show less

The DR 200se is a good bike overall. It has never let me down. Peformance of the bike is alright I wouldn't say it was good or bad. The bike tops out somewhere around 90 but once you hit 60 you're pushing it. I beat a honda 250 rebel with it if that says anything about the bike. The bike handles great and drives best on hard packed trails and in the city but not on the highway. The bike is fair in comfort, after about an hour my back starts to hurt. If you like to ride trails and drive down the road legally and don't have much experince with motorcycles, this would be a good bike to consider. Show less

I haven't finished the first tank of gas yet. I was looking for something fun to ride yet able to go to work on and the DR200SE fits the bill. So far it handles well and is quick enough in traffic and I find myself taking the long way home through the desert after work. When I get home I have a smile on my face. That tells me the bike was worth it. Show less

This bike replaced my 03 TTR-125. It was originally my dads but we soon found out that I rode it more then him. It is really fast and quick. I've had it up to around 70 on an open field. The back tire could be a little better in the dirt/mud but its all right. I haven't really ridden it on the road yet because I am only 14 but I soon will. haven't found any upgrades for this bike. I can't even find new seat cover or anything. But, it really is a great bike. Recommend it to almost anyone. Show less

AN EASY BIKE TO RIDE IN THE WOODS OR THE STEET, GETTING 81 MPG AT 50 - 55 MPH, FEET FIT FLAT ON THE GROUND GIVING THE FEELING OF CONFIDENCE AND CONTROL, TIRES ARE POOR IN MUD AND SAND, BIKE IS HARD TO CONTROL, STARTS RIGHT UP, SHIFTS WELL, GREAT PAINT JOB, BIKE LOOKS GREAT, MENT TO CRUISE ON STREET AT 55 MPH, WITH GAS AND OIL, BIKE WEIGHS OVER 260,MUCH EASIER THAN LARGER BIKE TO HANDLE IN THE WOODS. STEERS WELL, CORNERS WELL, STOPS GOOD. WOULD BE EVEN BETTER IF IT WAS AROUND 230 LBS, BUT NO CAN DO IT SEEMS. IT IS NECESSARY NOW TO HAVE A STREET LEGAL BIKE TO GET TO WHERE YOU WANT TO RIDE SINCE MOST AREAS ARE CLOSED TO HUNTING CLUBS, I NOW HAVE A HONDA XR 200 BUT IT CANT GO ON THE STREET, CASE CLOSED, THE DR WILL DO WELL. OWNED A PREVIOUS DR 200, AN 86, NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH IT, HAD IT FOR TWELVE YEARS, THIS ONE IS AN IMPROVEMENT OVER THAT, THE HONDA REPLACED THE 86, BUT NOW WITHOUT A HEADLIGHT AND THE REST, YOU CANT DRIVE OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY WITH IT, LEGALLY THAT IS. THE DR 200 WILL PUT A SMILE ON ANYBODYS FACE, THANK YOU SUZUKI ! Show less
