Did you hear back from that guy on your offer?

 

Nope, I am having second thoughts though. Didn’t like the naked one as much as my 650s with full fairings.

 

Is the naked one a lot more comfortable? I do like my S but with the clip ons I feel like I might as well be riding a full on sportbike. Lol I must be getting old I’ve been putting most of the miles on the cruiser lately.

 

Cash only
2016 Suzuki Drz400-S
Good bike bought new in 2016 from local suzuki dealer. Used to ride trails and back and forth to work when it was nice out. Plastics are a bit worn have been scraped up from riding through the woods. Bike was also dropped by my girl friend in the driveway when I was trying to teach her to ride..... big mistake. As you can see in the picture, the front break lever is sheared off from it. I just never got around to replacing it, as I actually preferred the smaller lever. Motor is at about 6,400 and will continue to go up until it is sold. Ive heard drz’s go 50k before needing a rebuild. I just dont ride it as much as I should. Will probably need a new chain and sprockets in near future, tires are probably at about 50% tread. Oil has been changed twice, and coolant changed once. Clean title in hand. Paid 7443 out the door in 2016 asking 4,200.00 obo

 

It’s a little more upright. I bought clipons to put on mine but I sold it before I could install them. I think I actually still have them in a box somewhere along with some race tech springs. It had a corbin seat that was super uncomfortable for me. I preferred the stock S seat more.

 

It’s crazy how a 2016 can look like a 15 year old bike with dirty plastics and dirty fork boots. I really wish these companies put money into their enduro bikes.

 

youre barely older than me.. but I also need a nap after I take a 40 min ride on my bike

 

Thats because the drz is a 15 year old model

 

Me too

 

first no interest in the bike.. then 3 people in a day

 

Those stimulus checks are coming in, lol.

 

I just spent like three hours going down a rabbit hole..

Started out with seeing a facebook ad that had a picture of an Orion FX1 in it, ended up deep on Alibaba since apparently noone in the US has any currently imported, aside from one company (Cleveland Cycle Werks) that marks them up about 4-5x. Apparently last year Orion was selling them for a grand delivered.

Also sold as a shi pao 125, Puzey Rocky 125, CCW FXx/Fxr and a few others.

19 more people want to buy one with me, only like $750?

140cc "dirt bike" with 21" tires front and rear. Looks like a fookin blast.

One guy supposed to get the whole thing on Friday for 800. But he didnt put a deposit.

Another guy offered to trade me rear wheels and 100. I said ok, so I can make 900. First guy wants the black wheel anyways. Didnt specify a date..

New guy today said he will come wednesday morning. We didnt talk about price, so I assume he wants to give me the 1k asking..

Another new guy today offered 500. But we had a good chat. I told him I have 2 people offering 800, coming on Friday.. - probably wont sell to him, since neighbor offered 650 and just wants the motor


We shall see.

 

not a trials bike? it looks like a bicycle with an engine and a headlight

 

Too tall for a trials bike, IMHO. But yes, basically bicycle sized large scrawny tires with an engine and a headlight from what I can gather, imagine how fun it'd be to do mountain trails and never have to pedal?

Reading around on some random china bike forums it sounds like GPX Moto may end up importing some this summer.. we'll see though. I was full ready to pull the trigger and buy one then spent three hours looking to realize I couldn't
