It’s hard to beat cheap bikes. Just something about it

👍 great stuff

[@LemonsGD]

Awesome build 👍 I have also just recently bought a cheap DRZ after many years of riding a WR250R. Surprisingly my first impressions were the ergonomics. Just with bar risers + fatbars this thing feels super comfy even compared to the WR. Having that extra torque is real nice too.

I did a KLX400 {Green DRZ, those handguards looked great on mine LOL} last year also for about $3300, except mine already came with all the performance mods including same RS3.....WOW is it loud but sounds like a big block Chevelle. I just replaced tubes, sprockets, fluids, bearings. I rode it for a season and sold it for $4k like I originally intended, BUT DAMN these DRZ's are so fricken good. I almost kept it and made it my only bike. If it wasnt so top heavy and clumsy offroad I could deal with sprocket changes often to deal with the trans.

Plastic spray paint can at home depot for $10 can switch lime green to black surprisingly well….i do a light scuff sand and spray has held up well for many years on crf

That's a super nice build. You did good on this purchase and buildout. Only thing that stands out is the brake line should be routed on the inside of the fork leg so it doesn't get snagged. Bike looks super good.

Thanks! And yeah I know, the SM’s come like that from factory because of the wide front tire. I’ll get around to it eventually.

@@OgreMoto Well I leaned something new today. Makes sense for the SM model.
