    Nice bike, been looking for a DRZ for a while, in the street legal flavor. My state only plates bikes that came street legal, so I can't do it otherwise (the conversion process).

    Currently ride an '86 Honda TLR200 - old trials bike. Street legal, does what I need, just not enough power. :p Makes for a pretty good DS most of the time.

    Sweet picture! The S and SM models are nice too! I'm really happy with mine, I feel it has more than enough power and I'm basically stock. Hope you find one!

    Thinking about selling it, these jumps are little too much for the front forks

    Pretty much yea. I'm looking at 2 stroke MX bikes. I just need to work on my turns, that's the harder part. I will say the DRZ has a strong motor, no doubt.

    Nice hit man! I'd vote a 2 stroke or the newer 4 stroke 450's. I loved my KDX220r it was a great 2 stroke, the power band was perfect for the woods and track. They also make great aftermarket forks for the DRZ. You can also buy replacement springs for the stock forks and have them dialed in to your riding style. There's tons of options out there. Heck you could swap forks with a RMZ.

    ^true. But ergonomics and weight play a factor, I want something lighter. YZ 250, RM 250, never owned a 2 stroke so wanna give it a go for a bit :) @TacomaJack09
