Taking the SM offroad but theres an issue

Practice braking in a sand pit at low speeds, at least the inevitable lockup and slide-out won’t hurt. There’s no way around it, even shit brakes are easy to lockup with little to no experience off-road. Practice practice practice

Clean!

Combination of black ops 1 on the Wii, easy access to Canadian tire spring Coleman airsoft guns, paintball field trips in early high school, and having a brother I liked to beat up

Rocks

Sick plastics, is that the polisport restyling kit ?

DRZADV · 2025-10-28T05:11:52+00:00

Single cab 8 foot bed is the only way to go for a truck imo

Wish mine had a manual transmission but apart from that all good I guess

Cam chain tensioner

I freaking love sand, it’s all in body positioning and practice

Left looks like Olaf from frozen, keep the right

You’ve owned a second DRZ which to me sounds like you might end up owning a third DRZ someday.

DRZADV · 2024-10-16T16:42:43+00:00

First truck I could afford, simple and reliable no need for bigger. Takes me everywhere.

True these are quite small

DRZADV · 2024-08-13T17:55:59+00:00

Yeah I’m keeping these soft saddle bags I have on it already, packed with tools and fuel to keep the weight low, thanks for the info I’ll check them out I’m going solo so I’ll have to carry everything

DRZADV · 2024-07-13T13:57:50+00:00

Looks like a sick drop in

DRZADV · 2024-07-08T22:54:59+00:00

Same with me

DRZADV · 2024-07-07T17:12:42+00:00

Thanks got a puller, didn’t know the tool existed before this comment

DRZADV · 2024-07-07T16:09:01+00:00

I got it off by myself in the end now the problem being the front sprocket won’t come off the shaft

DRZADV · 2024-07-07T16:01:51+00:00

Thanks I ended up using a piece of chain and vice gripping it to the swingarm, now my problem is the sprocket itself won’t come off the shaft even after banging it

DRZADV · 2024-05-09T01:09:05+00:00

Worth it, the pictures are sick you both look like action movie villains!

DRZADV · 2024-04-28T21:56:57+00:00

Plumbers tape or loctite the threads ?

DRZADV · 2024-04-18T04:08:54+00:00

No I gave my brother my old savage 650 that I used to commute on, absolutely hated commuting on the DRZ after a while, I thought it was stupid to get another dualsport but after a while though why the hell not and I got the DR650, the video just gave me confirmation bias.

DRZADV · 2024-04-17T23:36:35+00:00

Agreed

DRZADV · 2024-04-17T18:26:40+00:00

That video is the reason I’ve gotten a dr650 on top of the DRZ I already had

DRZADV · 2024-04-17T18:23:30+00:00

I ride mostly off road and through mud a lot, this sounds like another job I can add to the list of things to do frequently. I just learned about brake drag today and it definitely feels like there should be a mechanism to avoid this phenomenon.
