DRZEEEE or DRZED - HOW DID THE USA GET IT SO WRONG? 😂 But seriously, 'zed' came first. It started with the ancient Greeks calling it “zeta.” “Zeta” evolved into the French “zede,” which in turn gave us “zed” as English was shaped by Romance languages like French. After the Revolutionary War, Americans were trying to establish an identity separate from the British, and words and language played a big role in this. And Noah Webster spearheaded this movement when he began publishing standardized dictionaries of “American” English, with deliberate changes from British English, in part based on his hatred of the French. I actually could care less about how anyone says 'z' as English is such a bastardised mongrel language. But I always get a laugh when Brits or Yanks claim their way is the right way. 😎

I've had a 1990 DR350 since 2014 and sunk just an absurd amount of time and money into her. Dirt-only model that I made street legal, full motor rebuild, upgraded stator, PT clutch, Vapor, a million other bits and pieces. It was my first motorcycle and I'll always see it as an educational investment... it introduced me to woods riding and I'm totally in love. Despite her penchants for shin breaking kickstarts and an absolutely cranky temperament, I've spent the last two years riding the living heck out of it and its been an absolute joy on backroads and New England singletrack. Thankfully I don't have a good bike to compare it to! After taking a hard look at the DRZ400 and realizing a new one is heavier, short one gear and very little extra power I'm sticking with my 28-year-old pig for a bit longer. Putting off the inevitable hard choice of going two-stroke.

I think they never update their bikes so they stay grandfathered in on emissions regulations. The DRZ is still carbureted, and a significant update would likely require going to FI and possibly needing to do a lot more tweaking and R&D to meet stricter emissions standards. KTM has gone this route and put significant development into their line of dual sports, and it shows both in performance and price. The Japanese manufacturers are content with the budget bikes they've been selling, except for Honda trying to get into the high end segment with the new CRF450L (which I predict will sell poorly when compared to a KTM 500)

I've owned two DR's. A 125 when I was 14 yrs old, and I constantly cased it on jumps(once giving me a pretty nasty ankle sprang, but it was from a height of about 12 to 14 ft). It was heavy and tough, and taught me a whole hell of a lot about riding. Although, one of the worst ass kickings, I've ever had was on a DR350 that was set up for hair scrambles. It had a white brothers, built and tuned engine with tons of torque for what it was. Little bitty, narrow ass handle bars for getting between trees and nothing else. Absolutely nothing else. It had so much compression that it kicked back on me and threw me off the bike on one of my first kicks and ultimately ended up breaking my shin just starting it, before I was completely done with it. It jumped like a hippo and landed like a bag of shit. "Beast of Burden" is a completely correct term for all DR's to me. That particular bike ran like a raped ape. Power was not its problem but.... but.... Never Again, for me.

Hey! A bit of topic, but what do you guys think about Honda CRF300L in comparison to DRZ400? Surely DRZ packs more engine volume and thus power, probably at least a little better suspension, but the weight seems to be somewhat similar. Basically what I'm asking (I'm in Europe, where you cannot buy a new DRZ400) is whether DRZ400 is way superior to CRF300L for the kind of riding you guys do so that it really makes sense to pay a premium to buy a used one here, or is the CRF300L similar enough that it makes total sense to buy one, maybe do some little mods to get some weight reduction, maybe a tad more power and most importantly - suspension upgrades, at least the cheapest ones like fork oil, etc? Also, how would you compare SWM RS300R vs Honda CRF300L in terms of commuting/on-road riding? Surely SWM is completely in a different ball park in terms of off-road riding, but can it at least somewhat match the Honda in terms of on-road comfort, longevity, and top speed? Basically what I'm asking is - if I want to do some dual-sport riding, some commuting, am I better of with an SWM RS300R than CRF300L? Thanks

I have a DRZ400SM which I plan to convert for off-road use, swapping out the SM wheels for 21/18 setup. As you've owned all of the versions, would you imagine that the SM version converted with off road wheels will be similarly decent off road as the S or E version? I'm asking, cause I'm not too worried about the fact that the suspension travel is 29mm less in the front and 19mm less in the rear compared to S or E models (SM has 260mm front / 276mm rear, which is more than KTM 690 Enduro and only a bit less than Xtrainer/Ranger, although these I presume have better suspension all around), but more about the stiffness of the SM suspension for off-road even on the softest settings. Or maybe it will be exactly what is necessary, as I understand the suspension on the S and E models is not too good and, I presume, requires some work and maybe some more stiffness? Can you please comment on this?

I have a 2006 DRZ400SM that i bought used. great bike, but i never ride it in the dirt really. Mainly because i havent figured out the jetting. If i chop the throttle it flames out like its losing fuel. It never does it on the street because i use more smooth throttle. It especially does it over whoops or big bumps, or hill climbs. Really annoying to ride in the dirt!

That cut-out sounds like you need to by-pass the kick stand kill switch, on the other issue, make sure your idle speed is set fast enough, to start with. Hope that helps!

Thank you for the info. I will check the kick stand kill switch out. That does seem like the issue now that i think about it. It's funny because i had issues with my old 02 GSXR1000 and it was the same thing. Would just cut out randomly. I looked at everything on that bike and finally discovered the kickstand spring was loose enough to let the switch cut the engine out.

I don't think the DRZ will ever run out of fuel...
The same place you see the 'eeee'. 😂 66 out of 67 countries that officially speak English say 'zed' (although Canada is happy with both). And you do get it right in the USA occasionally, just see Pulp Fiction. 'Zed's dead, baby'.

@@crosstrainingenduro all letters have a primary sound accompanied by a vowel sound like an "A" "eh" or an "E" "ee" sound. This means that the sound of the letter b is bee not bed, g is ge not ged, its ze not zed
@crosstrainingenduro3 жыл бұрын
There are at least nine letters that don't follow that rule. Check out the etymology, it went from 'zeta' in Latin to 'zede' in 14th century French and into English. US version is traced back to 1670. Not that I really care about this stuff, but it is interesting. 😊
