Suzuki DRZ400S vs Honda CRF250L: Which is the Best Dual Sport Motorcycle? (From a Guy Who Owns Both)

Of all the awesome dual sport motorcycles available, the Suzuki DRZ400S and the Honda CRF250L consistently rank among the best. Basically any new dual sport rider will end up having to consider the Suzuki DRZ400S vs Honda CRF250L as part of their dual sport motorcycle purchasing decision. I'm lucky enough to own both the CRF250L and the DRZ400 and I've spent the last few months riding both and compiling my thoughts on the classic Honda CRF250L vs Suzuki DRZ400 debate. Fortunately, they are both amazing, reliable, and capable dual sport bikes. You really can't go wrong with the CRF vs DRZ, no matter which choice you make. In the end, the DRZ400 ends up being the more capable bike, but there are significant concerns about the lack of 6th gear and fuel injection, both of which the Honda CRF250L has. I've loved both bikes, but the 250l is definitely the more beginner friendly of the two, while the DRZ400 is the bike with the most room to grow into in the long run.
