For a while I looked at that and thought it was like a gnome with it's mouth open. Or a tree that fell and looked like a gnome.

these are 4 strokes, I haven't ridden the DRZ400 but have ridden the 250's from Kawi and Yamaha. not enough power on the street from my test rides anyway. but then again, I ride an 06 ZX10R and there aren't that many bikes that impress me for grunt.

So you're leaving it dual sport? Interesting.

I'll be getting a DRZ for the street in a couple months. Right now my priorities are elsewhere...

Yeah new challenge and a way to improve my riding that I don't want to pay for at the track and too stupid to do it on street.

Plus dirt in this area is fuckin fantastic

BMW has started releasing bikes in low frames. :rockout: I have a 27 inch inseam and flat foot my GS.

See I would enjoy a Motard but I have discovered literally hundreds of miles of county roads and fire trails here in teh Ozarks that I am dying to see. They lead to some real dramatic and awesome scenery, but a motard wouldn't have the range or carrying capacity I would. I would also commute on the thing as my Ninja hates 30 mph city traffic...

Touratech has tank conversions for the 800 & 650 (twin) that will increase the fuel capacity to 9.5 gallons. It is not on their website yet but it is in their catalog.
