Chino, Calif. - March 16, 2009 - The DR-Z400SM has been the surprise of the motorcycle industry these last several years. Suzuki created a winner combining a fun-factor that is through the roof with great styling and a low price point. It also just so happens that Yoshimura has a ton of experience with this motorcycle, and offers a full family of products and motorwork services for this popular bike.
DR-Z400SM Exhaust Systems:
For 2009, Yoshimura will offer two exhaust systems for the DRZ-400SM - an RS-2 Single and the new RS-4 Twin "Twice-Pipe" System.
The RS-4 Twin Pipe kit was previously only available as a custom system for Kevin Schwantz who was passionate about these pipes on his Super Motard bike. He wanted his bike to look like a "Hot Rod" and have a "cool" factor. We obliged and one of our most sought-after-yet-unobtainable pipes was created, which, up to now, was not available to the general public. For 2009, Yoshimura is offering these incredible "Twice Pipes" which are completely fabricated by hand and TIG welded to perfection. They certainly sit at the high end of what is available for the mighty SM... but that's what Kevin wanted! The pipes have a stainless steel header and Y pipe mated to twin carbon fiber RS-4 mufflers for incredible looks and performance. The kit also comes with a custom Yoshimura kick-stand.
Part Number for 2007-2009 DR-Z400SM: 2166524
MSRP: $1,049.95
Also available this year is the RS-2 single-sided system. The RS-2 is a great all around pipe. It has good ground clearance, is lightweight, gives you big power gains and looks really good. Plus, it comes with all the nice little touches and features that make Yoshimura famous. The plasma cut heat shield with our Yoshimura logo, high quality chrome steel exhaust springs and even spring vibration dampers with the Yoshimura logo molded in.
