I now miss my old DRZ400, granted it was set up for dirt, sold it when we had the kid.

Highway on something like that where I live is a death sentence. Matter of a fact a friend of mine got super fked up recently on a bike. IDK why but I'm guessing he was being dumb. Either way be safe out there. For around town it would be cool though.

I had one of these for 3 days before it was stolen from me, hah! Was my first dirt bike and not going to lie, i hated everything about it and was kinda glad it got stolen... 2 Speed Triples, Ducati Monster, Ducati Scrambler, Harley Sportster, Honda Shadow... just was not for me.

I was in your position for a LONG time. The best advice that really clicked with me was someone told me the balance point was the forks being parallel to the ground. If you focus on that you begin to see you're nowhere near going over backwards! 😅

I had an 09 or a 10, I forget lol. While it was sooo much fun at low speed, it sucked bad on the highway. Mine got nowhere near 100mph, I guess they got faster. Mine was 78 and revving out and it felt terrible at that speed. I beat the piss out of that thing. I had a jump on the way to work that I hit all the time that just made me smile. I got rid of it but I wanted the big tank and gears. It was such a great trick bike, it was built to wheelie and do small jumps

I rarely leave comments on videos but this one made me do it . Sick video man! Thoroughly enjoyed it . I'm from the KW area and used to drive to Ottawa on a biweekly bases for work so it was great to revisit some of the streets on your video :). I got my M2 this past April and got myself an R3 to learn on. Couple months later unfortunately had to sell it due to needing some cash for other things but Gaaaaash I miss it! ... I miss riding bro. Definitely hoping to get my hands on a bike come around Spring time next year. Looking at naked bikes due to cheaper insurance especially being a newer rider and still under 30. Looking to get some of your insight, did you try other bikes before purchasing this one?... I'm looking at the MT 07 / as well as 09. I know the 09 is an absolute beast so it's what makes it attractive but at the same time I know it's a big jump going from an R3. DRZ seems hella fun man but I do wish it went a bit faster at top speed.

@@quattromode1879 Thanks bro! Long story short, I was always set on buying a supermoto so the only bikes I looked at were in that category. But MT07 / 09 are next on my list. Obviously with DRZ you trade speed, fuel injection & comfort and with MT you trade the ability to just have a dirtbike you can take anywhere. MT is more practical for sure, but I just wanted to hit jumps and mess around on a dirtbike. I’ll probably never sell this bike lol

Great job on the video! Bike is sick. I ride a crf 250l and one of the best mods I did was going up 2 teeth on the rear sprocket. It added torque everywhere and didn’t mess up the speedometer. I mostly trail ride but do commute on it too. Grew up on dirt bikes then rode sport bikes for the last ten + years. These days I prefer riding dirt bikes on the roads more than anything. Looking to get a DRZ to replace my sport bike.

As a former drz owner I gotta say these bikes made a lot of sense when they were 3-4 grand. Post covid clown pricing people are asking 6-7k and they do nothing as well as a Ktm 500. I got a high mileage 500 for 5 grand Canadian that had the top end already rebuilt and it’s a different league of bike.

I DD'd an 83 XT550 for about a year a few years back. It looked like hell but was super fun. One of the things that really made a difference was that I installed the smallest rear sprocket I could (37t down from 44, if memory serves). Raised the top speed probably 20mph (or over 30 kunuckimeters per hour). Still so light that could smoke most cages off the line if necessity arouse. Only downside was the vibration. I went through several license plates because the (shop made) mounts would break and one morning, the thing died in the middle of major intersection. The ignition col mount snapped and the spade connector came loose. Bought a zip tie at lunch and off I went. Think I paid $400 for the bike, about $100 for a pair of Shinko dual sports, and insurance was like $70 a year. #cheapthrills
