After doing a lot of track riding my priorities for what I want in a street bike changed quite a bit... I have absolutely zero desire to ride a 130hp supersport crotch rocket at 10% of its limits on the road anymore... I just want something that is fucking fun and nimble, a little hooliganry. The DRZ is perfect. Not to mention great on gas.

I really like the KTM 690 SMC... my buddy has one of those... but they're fuckin 9 grand, so fuck that.
I hear ya. I'd like to get one someday.
