Heck yes! You're doing the DRZ community a great service with your easy-to-understand explanations and tutorials. You are truly a pillar of the community. Appreciate you! Happy new year, man. I have a feeling you might do that 470 big bore kit next. 😁
Dude I appreciate it! I’m just a guy who rode dirt bikes and wanted to be Jesse James when I was a kid. I never knew the DRZ community existed. I hope this helps people out there. That’s the goal. As far at the 470…. Who knows 🤷🏻♂️happy new year!!!
Dude the drz as been around for so long but no content for this bike is as good as yours. Your doing exactly the mods im planning too. I cant thank you enough.
Well that was incredibly well documented, shot, and easy to follow. Can't believe you have so few subscribers with that level of content, very nicely done man thank you so much. Liked and subscribed.
Important for anyone that wants to do this. Excellent video..... but I had some issues. The impact screwdriver DID NOT work for me. It stripped the screws and yes, I did it correctly. I've got experience building engines. A master mechanic friend got the screws out after they were stripped using an air hammer with Philips bit attached and 35 years' experience. Looking back, I should have used one of my high-quality Philips screw drivers and a wrench with lots of body weight. I tried it on a different screw, and it worked so be VERY careful using the impact screwdriver because I will NEVER use one of those again. Second the clutch body would not go on for me. I fought it for an hour before having to tap it on using a rubber mallet. Honestly, I would not fool with this unless you REALLY want it and have experience working inside engines. Also be prepared to order new Philips head screws from Suzuki after they strip out. It does work and this video is very helpful however I think the video creator is VERY lucky and I will just leave it at that. things are never as they seem in the movies.
Sorry you had bad luck. Did you get them hot before you tried to get them out? And this video creator did no movie trickery. Just a parked for me. Thanks for watching. And thanks for giving people some advice based on your experience. Stripped screws suck!

I wasn't sure, but when I saw you kicked it and it started I am convinced I need it. Today its battery showed its a crap. I do not need surprises in the bushes. Very informative video showing step by step everything I need to know to install it myself. Great thanks.

What excellent photography. I did this mod a couple of years ago and wish there had been this fine quality around then... I found it daunting approaching this but, as the sequence shows, being methodical and double checking everything makes it eminently achievable. The only negative was the dodgy instructions that look like they are photocopies of photocopies of photocopies.... Fine work sir.
Heck yea! Appreciate that. Always wonder what kind of criticism you’re going to get when you put things in the internet for the entire world to judge. I think this vid has helped many people out there. I couldn’t find a video I could use, so I made my own. Thanks for watching!
Thank you, well done DIY video sir! Very informative, detailed, well lit, and good camera work. This was perfect for me as I just received my kick starter kit and needed some further installation information. Got it done this weekend with a big help from your video. I have to add that I was very much entertained by the smashing of the box between cuts🤛😂 Thanks again!!👍
Awesome. Been waiting for this video since I seen your short teaser for it! I have an S model, no kick start on them either. Happy new year and thanks for the great content! Keep ‘em coming! 🍻🎉
Nice werk, my man! I was wondering about adding a kicker to my DRZ, just in case. Didn't really look into it much, but man, nice to find out it's really simple and Zuki even has a kit, so no need to piece all the parts together. Keep kickin' ass! Summer will be here soon 🤜💥🤛
Had to subscribe after this one, best edited drz videos I've seen. Really looking forward to more WI north woods rides after all the mods to my bike thanks to your channel👌
💪👍!!! Очень подробная и хорошая видеоинструкция. Долго искал на youtub что то подобное. Автору респект! Буду ставить kikstart на свой Suzuki DRZ 400S 2009
Wow this is pretty involved, I will probably let the pros do it if I buy the kit. Love the idea of having the kickstart for sure! Also I like the empty box punch clips, so funny :P
Awesome man, thanks! I'll be using this one, sometime over the summer for sure! I've bump started mine a few times, (just to kinda get a feel of the compression) the 400 definitely has some Kick-Back! 8° degrees, Huh? I had the same HERE! It was freakin' COLD! Thanks again, 👍 great instructional video.. Happy New Year!
Greetings, as always another brilliant detailed video production 🇺🇲🎉🍾🎉 How much would you charge to install on mine 2024 drz400s Thank you so much for assisting me and keep producing more videos about the drz
The Kickstarter is a must. Got stranded once after battery died and decided electric start couldn't be trusted lol. Suzuki can we discuss the fuggin Philips head screws in there you gotta get out? I grabbed an impact heated them up and prayed to god the heads didn't strip, those bastards are in there.
Those aren't Philips, they are JIS, which is basically just philips without the design flaw of being designed to strip. You can tell JIS apart from Philips (most of the time) by a little indent in the head of the screw. There are also no Philips screws on Japanese bikes as a general rule. Philips works terribly in JIS screws, but JIS screwdrivers actually work better in Philips than Philips does in Philips. So you are honestly better off throwing away all Philips screwdrivers and just using JIS ones on both kinds. The brand "Vessel" makes good sets on JIS screwdrivers, including impact drivers.
Exact tool I used. 💪🏼. You’ll be happy with this mod. Nothing cooler than kick starting your shit! EBC Brakes CT006 Clutch Basket... www.amazon.com/dp/B0065WTIJ6?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Not difficult, but a little bit involved. I'm old enough to remember when everything came with a kickstarter. Just rebuilt the entire suspension on my Goldwing and this is a breeze compared to that.
Good job, and nice video! I've also got the SM model and think that this mod is a great idea, but I probably won't do it to mine, as my off road riding away from the possibility of getting a jump start are probably over (I'm 67 now). I imagine that the DRZ400SM is also probably pretty easy to "Bump Start", specially if you have any kind of downhill slope. Your bike looks great, and I wish I had that lift for maintenance work. What carburetor are you running?
I would imagine it’s pretty easy to bump start. The lift is definitely a back saver! I’m def not 25 anymore. 🤣. And I am running OEM carb with JD jet kit. I was running an FCR39 clone. But it didn’t perform like I wanted it to up top. So I swapped back to OEM. Thanks for watching sir. I appreciate it!
Great Video man! I’ve been trying to get a kickstart fitted on my DRZ400-sm but the kit never came with the seal with the spring in it that goes around the kickstart lever. Do you by any chance know the part number or have a close up of the part? It would really help thanks man 👍🏻
So apparently there is a mistake in the manual. Note: #2 (spring guide) in the depiction is backwards to how it's supposed to be oriented. Did you happen to notice or account for this?
Awesome vid man!! The other ones on the install are ok but not as clear as yours. Did yours come with a pair valve? I have a 22s and i want to get rid of mine.
Hey I also have a drz (2004 drz s ) can you kickstart the bike with the battery totally disconnected or fully dead ? Or does the bike still need the battery installed to control the cdi ? All I find online is a bunch of different answer would be cool if you made a video testing this for all us fellow drz riders. Awesome bike btw Kentucky looks like a fun place to ride !
Hey, kind of a dumb question but just wanted to be sure. If I install a Kickstart, will it be able to start without a key inserted? I want to be able to ride around and not worry about someone riding off with it if I walk into a gas station or something.
What year DRZ is that? Did you have any issues with the kickstarter sense you installed it? Any idea why Suzuki say the kickstarter kit only fits up to 2007E models? I have a 2018 l was thinking about installing the kickstarter when l need a clutch,thanks in advance
Hello there, awesome work, how do you feel it now when some time passed by, do you think it's reliable? I really want to do this mode but don't want to end up with some broken pieces from this kit in bearings or something like that😅 thanks
