I guess my train of thought about the DRZ is why go through the time and money trying to get more power out of it when the Husky/KTM has it out of the box? The Husky is only $2000 more than the DRZ and is much more bike than a DRZ will be with $2000 in mods. I'm also not a big modder, either. My bikes say mostly stock.

As far as KTM maintenance goes, I don't think the 690 is all that bad. It's those EXC models that require constant wrenching.
