I ran them on my DRZ and loved them. Then when it came time for a refresh I couldn’t find them so I bought MT21’s. Loved those two. Now, in 2024 I’m broke due to Bidenomics and I went with the Tusk EMEX T-45’s. Should be here in a day or two and will be riding in 2 weeks

What is your custom seat?

Doing it tomorrow.. can't wait!

I’m getting some new gear. It’s for the coming hot weather with expected long and consecutive days/weeks on sealed and unsealed roads. I’m thinking of the body armour, mx pants, jersey combo as the best heat management option. But I keep getting stuck on the issue of slide protection, particularly on bitumen or hard packed unsealed roads at speed. That’s where the jackets are better, but so horribly heavy and hot.

Way to low rpm that was a stall waiting to happen. Drop a gear or change your gearing

Does anybody have a link for this product?

Oh man sick vid! Exhaust is amazing! ❤ Have you heard the Akra in person? I like yours better but I’m wondering if it’s much louder than the akra. I live in a condo in the Philippines and when I start my r1250sg with a Remus slip on (no db killer) in our enclosed basement parking sometimes it sets off my neighbors car alarm! 🤣 I’ve never heard ANY mt09 with an aftermarket pipe in person and it’s hard to just just HOW LOUD they are in person haha. Thanks mate

Really needs a screen

Awesome guy's thanks for the video's it was great to watch this is second time for me thanks again safe riding 👍 👍

Click bait profile picture. There is no crocs anywhere alone the creb track. This is coming from a local voice.

I did similar exhaust to my tenere. sounds great!

Good one Josh. Forgetting camping equipment and nearly burning socks and boots.

What front fender are you running on hour bike?

mate absolutely loving your channel, I currently have a Africa twin but after having it for a while I m thinking of downsizing and going the Drz 400. I live in Brissy and am just looking ti have a lot more day and over night adventures with matbeabig ine once a year. Keep it up and great to see you loving the old technology.

Brother quick question I hope you can answer. After having this exhaust for how long you have, did you had to do a ECU flash? If not, how did the bike end up having any problems?

Lovely bike mate

Hi. What kind of tires do u use in front an rear? Very nice T7 ❤ Thank you very much. Best greetings from Germany 😊

Godd old dr 400e. Can’t beat the reliability! Did u float your bike to cairns? If so did you do it yourself or company please?

Would the DR650 be the same?

3 weeks till we ride this trip to the top. Been waiting 12 months.

is there a workaround for the base mounts? instead of drilling in the rear fender can they be held with a carabiner?

Yeah never understood the heated grip concept, it’s only ever heating half of your hand, drawing a lot of power from the battery and a good pair of gloves keep the entire hand warm. But great little spot on the creek to camp on that single track

I just bought a 2006 drz sm and it’s super fun. I’m gonna put some dirt tires on it next week. $3000

Rall zee😂

Hi Josh. I run Motoz on my 990R. My past experience is that the tyres take 2000km plus to settle in. And tyre pressures are of great importance. One can run low pressures in the Motoz range due the hard and stiff side walls. I normally run 2 bar in the front and rear laden or unladen. When the terrain gets extreme then I drop down to 1.6 bar. Nothing much notable from 2 to 1.8 bar. The trip you said you battled with these tyres wasn't it the trip your battled and didn't enjoy. Watching that video your front looked like a pogo stick, and a bad case of the luggage steering the bike. Since then you have had the suspension serviced. What tube are you running I.e,. normal 2mm, HD 3mm or UHD 4mm? Tyre pressure, tyre compound, tube thickness and suspension settings all go hand in hand. Unsprung mass comes in to play as well. A guy who races bikes once told when I asked him what tyre size I must run on my 450 plastic. His answer was to me, 500cc and below nothing bigger than a 120 width in the rear. I run a 140/80/18 on my 990R instead of the normal 150/70/18. There is a large difference between the two sizes. The 140 has a higher profile and rolling diameter, plus weight. I don't need or use the full width of the 150 on or off the road. Also a tubeless tyre has a heavier side wall than a tube tyre. These tips I got from Motoz. Yes I agree tyres and tyre pressures are individual taste and preferences. Individual riding styles plays an important part as well. All the best with finding that perfect tyre combination.

Sounds like the perfect combination for my trip to the Finke next year on the T7. Thanks. Used the Motoz GPS for a long trip off road on my supertenere and the rear was ideal, the front not much.

The Gritty ED03/04 is a bit of a unicorn tyre IMO. Couldnt really fault them but I couldnt find them in the aftermarket, so went with Maxxis desert

I fitted up a Rallz on the rear in Alice before i crossed the Simpson, not as happy with it as the Desert HT but it did the job.

Hi Josh love watching your videos mate keep them coming and thank you for the effort and time you put into them would you pick D606 over motoz tyre's

Should try the motoz IT enduro, I think the tyre problem is the bike is too light, same problem I had on the 500, although will be fitting the rallz to the 1290

Interesting review. So many people rave about this tire If this tire isn’t what you think it’s should be. What tire have you used that’s better ?

Great review I have the same setup on my T7 definitely want something that performs better in the more technical off road next

I run the same tyres on my adv bike but have a 150 on the back. Found them to have good longevity, good performance on and off road. Haven't done too much mud but done deep sand and found them good not great. Never had issues in the wet on the road. The rear especially can be noisy. Would recommend. Most likely will try the Mitas enduro trail XT next.

Nice one mate. I reckon I’ll have a few different points to what you mentioned which will be good for the perspective buyers. My rear is looking pretty sad due to being absolutely flogged. Still some life left so no review from me just yet 🤙

Hey josh do you get Anlas capra x tires out there in aus

There is more to how tires perform then just that. Geometry, sag, tire presure, rider postion, type of riding, ect. This is why no two people will have the same opinion on tires. The DRZ is raked out at the front so I found bringing the fork tubes up through the tripples by 20 - 30mm made a huge difference with the front sticking in fast gravel turns. You also need to slide up on the tank to weight the front tire. I did try the Motoz Rallz on the rear to be pretty good at 20PSI. I also found the MT21 front and rear on the DRZ worked well.

I never had a problem with Rallz rear on my 690r but I aired it down 10 psi

Nice review. Good to see you give a real honest answer at the end, even if they were a "freebie" Do you have a trip in the pipeline where you could try a more road orientated tyre? Like 80/20. Do you do enough bitumen/hard gravel trips that would warrant that type of tyre that would still be capable off road?

Not sure if you’ve tried a Dunlop 603 on the rear? Write up says there a 70/30% off-road on road tyre. I’m curious as to how they perform.

Longevity of that dualventure is amazing from my experience. Have you tried the motoz enduro front? Im really liking them offroad.

the 140 would have an effect on traction too, wider tyre equals less contact pressure example is like a boot vs a stiletto. but it wouldn't change the outcome of the review just that a 120 would bite in a bit more and stay hooked up slightly better, also less weight sapping power and slowing direction changes.

Was waiting for this review as I'm close to replacing the tyres on "Doozer", but, have been happy with my 606/MT 21...may just go to the next level up on the MT21...thanks for the review.

Do you have the GPX file anywhere? Looks great

Any videos on the breather hoses for a drz400S mikuni carb? I think I only has 1 breather hose?

I'm late to your party but I did arrive.... lol, I didn't realize there was an, "E" version of the DRz400? The regular & SM I knew of & I was just watching a man when I saw a second radiator? I was surprised, wondering if he had added the 2nd coil to expel more heat from the bike? Heck, that wouldn't surprise me at all, in fact I'd be wondering if I could do that just to protect the bike even better. Anyhow, both were protected w/ a dual shield radiator guard & I learned about the "E" version. So now I'll be watching your video & coming back to ask more - like if you live in America? But I'll be back in a few. So I've watched & one of my biggest questions is about the 2nd radiator coil. The "E" has 2 radiators instead of just 1 & this is something I've thought about doing just to make any bike run cooler but I saw this today on another Aussie Man's "E" version. I didn't know this existed & it's not available here so I guess they discontinued her in the States? For me, I wonder about those 2 coils & the different sprocket setup on this bike? Do you know why this version is like this, I mean it's a lot different than the original or SM models even though it's the same overall stuff? So I'm here asking, never know what I might find used out there & it's better that I know what it is now in case I do have a chance to buy a used one? So far, of the 3 different DRz's, I think I like the "E" best? peace man

Cheers Josh Awesome track mate hard riding beautiful views 🤙

Hi Josh, really enjoy your videos. Wish I could live in Australia just for the riding. Tell me how many km was this trip? Keep up the awesome videos. Cheers all the way from South Africa.

Great video. Love your work! Nothing better than getting out on the bike amongst nature!

👍😁👍 two thumbs up mate . great little ADV ride and camp 😎 keep well young Sir 😉🍺

Can't beat the mighty DRZ
