EveRide DRZ 400 Extreme Makeover Episode 14 - Fuel and body work

[@eveRide]

This is my 6th time watching this now... honestly I can't believe it. It's just slowly sinking in. Why are you guys so nice? This is probably the nicest thing anybody has done for me outside my own mother and wife! Unbelievable! I can't wait to ride!

[@ROCKINRODNEY]

I suspected the rotopax would get called into service. An excellent choice! Looking good fellers, keep this party going. Congrats eveRide.

[@SovaKlr]

rojo enjoyed putting that yellow tank back in the box way too much.. haha More good stuff guys.

[@rideforrestride]

Looks like a ton of fun, wish I could be there just to hang out and learn how to do all that stuff! Love the vids!

[@Lionheart638]

This is starting to get to the good stuff now. I'm getting excited to see this thing come together as a finished project.

[@chrisodiemoto]

he is very lucky to have friends like you. black bikes are always bad ass

[@imaskater3297]

eveRide is really lucky to have such great friends as you guys! :)

[@MrDuhfactor]

We can't wait to ride either, looking toward the last week end in April coming down for a delivery if everything goes well....... We have had a few Duhfactor moments that's slowed us down... Ha Ha..... We're just average folks that like to have fun......

[@eveRide]

There shall be much rejoicing... I'm making a response video right now. It's kinda weird... but hopefully it gives you guys warm fuzzies.

[@eveRide]

Wait... see WHAT tomorrow morning? Is there more video??? :D This is INSANE man! I love it!

[@MrDuhfactor]

Right on!!!!! You're gonna love the finished bike!

[@MrDuhfactor]

Hold that thought...... Maybe we'll need that in the future.....Dang it.....

[@MrDuhfactor]

Glad you like it, and yes, Iron Maiden "fear of the Dark" is fitting for this BLACK, very BLACK bad bike......

[@KOedNAC]

I remember the day I picked up my DR650. It was a great day over all but I remember turning the corner and telling me wife, "man I hope it isn't that yellow one". It was... I still love it anyways though...

[@NeilsIn]

Frickin' awesome! I was wondering what the benefit of downscaling the tank was until i saw those rotopax/rojopax ;)

[@eveRide]

Except when it comes to being awesome, riding motorcycles, coming up with epic ideas in hot tubs, looking really really ridiculously good-looking, and fixing motorcycles. Nothing average about you guys when it comes to those things.

[@JLynnCognito]

Looks awesome, fellas!

[@DillysADV]

That is gonna be super sexxxxxxyyyy!!! getting exited to see the finished product. Don't throw out that front fender, the Yamato could use a new fender and I can always paint it like I did the rest of the garbage can fenders.

[@StirInspiration]

I can't wait to see how you make the mounts, need some inspiration for my drzsm.

[@eveRide]

*jaw hits the floor by simply seeing the thumbnail* LET'S WATCH THIS THANG! :D

[@eveRide]

No lie, I've always wanted this thing to be black. Maybe I'll throw just a little bit of yellow on there for the "batman" look ;) I think the old plastics will probably get auctioned or something, then give the moolah to a worthy cause... like the RojoNeck restoration project. Or maybe we'll sell them to get Rojo some Rotopax? :D

[@BrianWest58]

Wow! That's pretty frickin cool!

[@msrphoto]

You guys are awesome!!

[@MrDuhfactor]

We hope he likes it! He hasn't seen it, but after we put the plastics on it, it looked seriously tough..... Mr EveRide will be a force to reckon with once he throws a leg over "the Black Widow" :)

[@MrDuhfactor]

Side racks outside of the roto pax??? Wow, now I haven't thought of that, but is a great idea..... I'm going to have to think about that more.... Protection, ability to add panniers, hmmmm........ Can/should the DRZ do that???

[@eveRide]

Oh man... Rojoneck's bike would probably be ash and rust by October. Why am I so hard on other people's bikes? I have tried SO hard to take it easy on that beautiful steed!

[@eveRide]

Know what's funny about this? It's top secret... but another prominent motovlogger and I have given this some serious thought. Add in the Misters and we've got an amazing crew!

[@stumper92]

Simply Awesome!

[@eveRide]

Sorry for all the midnight comments... but I'm calling KZbin right now and requesting a "Love" button.

[@ToastToGo]

Is it possible to do a video of you guys making the custom racks for the bike? I need to make custom soft luggage supports for my street bike so the high exhaust doesn't burn it up!

[@eveRide]

So true! Then again, I can't figure out why somebody would take Rojo's butt pad and nothing else. That's why I think it was either a kid or some kind of error. The last I knew it was on the hood of my car. I think my wife drove to work with it on there.

[@MrDuhfactor]

Yes, we've started the video, and will post up how we did it for EveRides bike. It of course will be different for your ride, but the principles will be the same. Good luck!!

[@MrDuhfactor]

Yes, and you we're right....... Man it's tough for an old fella' to keep a secret......We've been so excited!!!!

[@britex3186]

Looks really Great!! Side backs outside of the rotopacks?

[@MrDuhfactor]

I hope these babies work out, if not, ooops!!

[@MrDuhfactor]

That's a great plan......We'll be taking all of his stuff back down to him, maybe he'll part with it.... He might want to go back to the yellow stuff......Never know :)

[@dozerjohn]

We need mounting options on them rotopaxes, at least an option to add medium sized bags like wolfmans.

[@eveRide]

ROJOPAX! That actually works! :D

[@MrDuhfactor]

We're just playin' with the yellow..... I have enough pigment to want a little bling....... Rojo?? He hates bling..... The DR 650 is a great bike no matter what color.....

[@MrDuhfactor]

Wish you were here to hang out with us too, we have a great time. You'd have to lower your expectations around us though, we're pretty average with just about everything :)

[@MrDuhfactor]

We have to watch Rojo..... He'll rub off on anything sitting around :) Actually there are a few things that need a little sanding attention..... Coming up in the electrical episode.....

[@eveRide]

There were no new videos today, so I guess I'll watch this for the 269th time :-)

[@MrDuhfactor]

We'll, I actually sold about 4-5 of the dirt bikes I acquired over the years, so now I've got the Aprilia Pegaso, the KTM, my chopper, and a triumph that I'm restoring. The other ones are my families bikes....

[@ToastToGo]

So many toys!!! How many bikes do you have?

[@kenwalz7231]

I LEARNED A LOT FROM YOUR VIDEOS.....THANKS!! I WAS WONDERING HOW YOU KNEW THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR WAS BAD....I'M GUESSING AN ELECTRICAL TEST.

[@MrDuhfactor]

KEN WALZ Yes, electrical test can ne done to show an open circuit, or the voltage doesnt change with altering its position. On this carbureted bike, it controls timing, on fuel injected bikes it controls timing and fuel curves.

[@MrDuhfactor]

Thanks Joel! Hows the knee?

[@MrDuhfactor]

Thanks Brian!

[@eveRide]

This still shocks me... you guys are too nice.

[@MrDuhfactor]

Thanks My Man!! Your the best!

[@eveRide]

The official filmed reaction is uploading now :) I had to film it... sometimes the best part about playing "Santa" is seeing your kids' faces. :D

[@MrDuhfactor]

Thanks MSR!!!

[@TheRealAdamBussey]

good work

[@strongishmuffin]

What do I think? I think I need a couple of rotopax

[@eveRide]

Oh... and I'm sure they have very happy wives, too.

[@MrDuhfactor]

Wow, now your thinking!!!

[@awaketoliberty]

A fan of Iron Maiden is definitely a friend of mine... \m/

[@MrDuhfactor]

I was going to record him riding it, but the way things disappear around his place, I'll probably need to reconsider....

[@CRBlKER]

Are you guys selling those yellow plastics on ebay or something?

[@marcochavanne]

You guys convinced me to get the Acerbis instead of the IMS.

[@MrDuhfactor]

KLR video KLR video!!!!! :))

[@MrDuhfactor]

Thanks my man!

[@ToastToGo]

Thanks! I appreciate it!

[@MrDuhfactor]

Thanks Adam, just doin' our best :)

[@MrDuhfactor]

We like his ideas too, unfortunately he hasn't been able to say much on this one, it's all been a secret for him too. Good thing is, Anything we do can be changed back if he doesn't like it......

[@MrDuhfactor]

Ha Ha!!! Did I tell you we can't make it back down until october?????? J/K :)

[@OffroadEthan]

Anytime!

[@britex3186]

Uh....YEA!!

[@anticomillennium]

ims tanks ? It's same for S or E model ?

[@MrDuhfactor]

Im not 100% sure, but I think so......

[@anticomillennium]

@@MrDuhfactor Thanks a lot and best regards from Rome Italy

[@MrRojoneck]

*waiting for eveRide's reaction*

[@MrDuhfactor]

We like to tease...We'll probably give them back to EveRide to do what he wants with them, he'll probably put them back on :O Ha Ha

[@MrDuhfactor]

This old man went to sleep, thinking every one else was too......That's why I said "tomorrow morning" thinking that others would wake up to a new video and see it in the morning........Did ya sleep last night?????

[@joeljohnson6693]

That is one sexy machine!!

[@MrDuhfactor]

Ha ha!!! Wait till people see it tomorrow morning......

[@eveRide]

I highly doubt anything will change once I get it back. In fact, I probably won't wash it... just like giddy teenage girls don't wash their faces after they've been kissed.

[@eveRide]

AHHHHHHH HAHAAAAAAAA AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HAHAHA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

[@OffroadEthan]

Awe man, I could've got you guys Acerbis plastics for free.

[@rideforrestride]

Good bye 4 gallon tank.

[@MrRojoneck]

Well...MrDuhfactor looks like nobody likes it. Guess we'll just keep the Rotopax's for ourselves.

[@879doogie]

so size matters? (insert dirty response here)

[@MrDuhfactor]

Ha Ha!!!!!

[@sgtmarkins]

I would just give him the KTM 990 ADV. And heck, if he wouldt take it I would.

[@DillysADV]

never mind, I like everides idea more.

[@MrRojoneck]

*elevator music*
