The DR650 will no longer be available due to various legislation including pollution laws and ABS. It will be continued in some other markets. The Tanami Desert is known as Australia’s Last Frontier and is a fitting name for the DR.
Featuring a host of parts valued at over $1000 that heighten the models’ already renowned off-road capability. The 20L Acerbis polyurethane fuel tank ensures the Tanami Edition is ready to take on any outback adventure, providing additional capacity over standard whilst maintaining slim ergonomics and sleek styling. Increased mileage is well complimented by the greater protection offered by the Genuine Suzuki aluminium bash plate and Barkbuster VPS hand guards fitted as standard equipment.
The sturdy bash plate features a simple two-bolt design allowing for easy removal and servicing. The hand guards feature full wrap around aluminium design with replaceable high impact resistant plastic shields, which also assist in deflecting wind from the rider’s hands.

For MY20 we have injected even more adventure into the DR’s DNA with the introduction of the Tanami Edition; packaged ready for long distance riding around our beautiful country” said Suzuki Australia’s Motorcycle Marketing Manager Lewis Croft.
