DRZ400SM Case Saver Install (And Durability Testing)

[@terryerickson4697]

Another great video. It looks like your having a lot of fun! Look forward every week for your videos. The reason like your videos is you keep it light and real. Keep up the great work

I appreciate the shit out of that comment! I appreciate you watching!

I have the white model. Looking at the blue ones. I think the silicone may actually help to add a layer of cushion.

[@linksgarage1985]

The silicone is applied thick. In my opinion, it definitely adds a layer of cushion. I love the white ones with the blue wheels!

I've been running the black amazon special case savers as well after having no luck finding TT case savers in stock. Same boat as you. No complaints! I ride my 2022 SM pretty heavily off road it's sort of a dual sport conversion. Haven't dumped the bike over and REALLY tested the case saver but I'll let you know if I do.

[@linksgarage1985]

Heck yea!! I appreciate the feedback! Seems to be decent to me. I would have spent the extra $$ for the TTs. I just couldn’t find them!

[@jimperry4420]

I saw the 10/22 in the background and knew you were going to shoot it. Great style.

[@linksgarage1985]

Thanks man!!!! It was a fun one to make!

[@BrutalOwls]

The editing in this was hilarious 😆

[@linksgarage1985]

It was definitely a fun one to do. Maybe I’ll do more shit like that. Thanks for watching I appreciate it as always! 💪🏼

[@ripsticvic4755]

Loving the bike man! Have a similiar DRZ. For a few months I had clear clutch cover plate, shit was badass!!

[@linksgarage1985]

Thank you! I thought about doing that! I appreciate you watching!

[@mrsmel269]

great r&ding brother !!! enjoy the rest of the weekend!!! we got the same ones just havnt got them on yet.

[@linksgarage1985]

Pretty decent. Not the best for sure. But no one can argue, they are better than no guards at all. 💪🏼

[@mrsmel269]

heck ya at least i know to avoid axe men and mc hammer and i better not shoot my eye out ;-). thumper talk had some nice ones i tried to get when we scored our drz but no one hit me back when i asked about them. im with you there way better then not having any but i think the ones from tk might of been able to stop the .22 .

@@mrsmel269 if I ever find some, I’ll test it!

[@CoachSteve4u]

I bought a cheap pair off Amazon and crashed last week. It totally save me case. There is a dent in the saver and it came off.

[@linksgarage1985]

Glad it worked. And hope you’re ok!

Yes I sure have. I’m sure I’ll do the kickstand delete soon!!!! And next time I shoot something, it’ll go big boom!

Hey man do you see yourself doing a clear clutch cover? I need a good teacher to show me how! 😆 covers look great

You’ll have to watch the next video!

[@anthonynicholich9654]

You have to test it installed on the case to get correct results of an impact tests that you are using! The way you're doing it case saver does not have solid support behind it so it's free to move away from whatever you're doing to it.

No shit dude..
