But, we must agree that it's ample. Shit, Andres Carlstein rode his with a completely stock fuel & exhaust system to Agrentina, and his bike was loaded to the hilt with crap like 3 Givi cases, a huge tank bag and bloated Areostitch tank paniers.
>Is it the lightest? No.
But less of a pig than some others in the same size class.
>Is it the prettiest? Hell no.
But it has great potential to make you look like a bad-ass if you want.
>Will it get me everywhere I want to go and back? Hell yeah.
YEAH BABY! Grrr, really grrr!!!

He especially loves that off-camber single track ;^)

sorry, brain fart on my part -- looking @ too many bikes. analysis paralysis. right you are, the drz400 is, in fact, liquid cooled & the plain dr650 is air cooled. no, the problem i had with the drz is that it's a very tall motorcycle, too tall for my SO. the klr is right @ the very edge of what she can handle, height-wise. gears, ye wilde ryder -- wallace@... 99 zx-9r "blue bayou" 98 vtr-1000f "stormy" zwallace@... 86 cr-250 "dirt devil" 00 sv-650 "zipper" "& you were using your friends as a berm." -- RP 83 v65 magna "nasty" FoJ#002...AMA#456832...JHLO#002...COP#000...CCS#SW969...Support the RKBA
