Nice... weren't you telling me a while ago that you didn't like the DRZ's?

I have ridden my buddy's a lot and love it. It'll make a great street ride.

There's a guy locally selling one for a good price. He bought it....rode it for a hundy miles and decided he didn't like it. He's got a Super Duke as his daily rider.

My buddy threw a carb and an exhaust on his and the thing rips and sounds awesome. Good power for what it is, too.

I took it on the highway and even there it cruises comfortably at 75. It tops out at like 110 or so.

Awesome in the city too, it's like playing a video game

He said it didn't make enough power for him...he really wanted a KTM or Husky SM...but the DRZ came at him at a steal of a deal so he bought it...and ultimatley doesn't like it.

There was a time that I loved the Bimmers. Even the funky switch gear. Still do, from a styling point of view, but ergonomically speaking they just don't work for me anymore. Something about how much they love those tall, flat tanks.

I've never even sat on a BMW so I have no frame of reference. I just know it looks bad ass.

I used to own a K75RT back in the early '90s and it was a great bike. It was a former BMW Canada demo bike that had literally every option available and I picked it up fairly cheap, with full warranty. I test rode maybe a half dozen different models up until 2001, but nothing since. Just sitting on them at trade shows is a much different feel from even the older R1100RS.
