In 2007, nearly every major Japanese manufacturer sold a street-legal Supermoto. Honda had the XR Motards, Yamaha offered the XT and WR models, Suzuki had the DR-Z400SM, and Kawasaki had already helped create the category with the D-Tracker. Today, almost all of that variety is gone. Why did Japan abandon a motorcycle category that seemed perfectly suited to light, reliable single-cylinder bikes? This documentary follows the story from the D-Tracker, WR250X, DR-Z400SM and CRF250M to the modern return of the DR-Z4SM and Kawasaki's KLX models. It examines the changing market, emissions rules, platform economics, pricing – and why KTM and other European manufacturers turned a niche into a powerful identity. The final question is simple: did Japan really abandon Supermoto, or are we watching the beginning of its return?
