AR15xAR10's 2015 Suzuki DRZ400S "Dirt Scooter" Build

I went with larger foot pegs only because i bent one of the stock ones in a low side. Now that i have them, they're worth every penny.

I still don't have rad guards. Haven't really needed them.

 

Already got an aftermarket skid plate

Probably just going to cut off the fender for now and get rid of that gigantic tail light later. I wanna make the bike bulletproof then "pretty"

 

Bark busters or zeta handguards are an absofuckinglute must

They'll save your hands, your levers, and sometimes even your bars

 

Already have handguards too!

 

One tooth down front sprocket is great. Really livens up the torque

 

Jd jet kit for the stock carb or fcr
Mrd exhaust
Case savers

But id also get rid of the hideous stock taillight

 

I knew what yours would be

He is looking for protection/longevity mods first

 

He already has handguards and a skid plate. Only one i would add is case savers. Rad guards arent that important

 

The newer RMZ front fenders fit with little modification. I think I bought mine for $20 shipped.

 

I like the look of the supermoto model's fender on mine.

It looks hideous on the supermoto, but great on the dualsport.

VS.

 

I definitely think a radiator guard is a good buy. Don't be like me and order one after you bend your radiator haha

 

I just hope they keep all the crap out of the radiators and don't make it worse. Because i catch leaves and sticks in both of mine like crazy.

 

New fork decals, just adding little touches

 

Not all rad guards are created equal. I don't remember specifics off the top of my head but some are flimsy and mount poorly.
I would say they are analogous to bull bars on a truck. (Do more harm than good)
There are a few that mount up properly and protect your radiator well. Like a pelfrybilt plate bumper

 

Such as?

 

There are like 4-5 different people that make them to my knowledge. I have had a stick come up and stab my petcock while riding...so i imagine one could do the same to the radiators....i just haven't picked a set that i like yet.

 

Sorry it's been too many years and I don't remember what guards I'm running even. I just remember seeing a few bikes come into my buddy's shop with cruddy guards and ruined radiators.
I'm sure some research on thumper talk would steer you straight.

 

google says force is best.

 

Splain yourself

 

Heh heh

You said cock
