It's a kickstarted 1993, or 1994. Mods are: DRZ400 headlight fairing, UFO barkbusters, KTM front fender. Laser Produro exhaust. More will come... (Mikuni TM40, if the wife will let me ). View attachment 197447 Hear my Produro roar: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SO9EJGw2BN4
This combo with a 19" ft and 17"rear each an inch wider then stock works out really good on smooth fireroads or curvy paved coastal roads. An inmate sold the wheels pretty reasonable with a new set of Anakee's on em.
Like the street tires. Pretty pleasant ride on them? Is it the angle of the shot...or have they made changes for '09?
The nice thing with the SW-Motech racks is that it only takes about 30 seconds to take them off if you want to ride more aggressively without the wieght of the racks.
heres mine, bought it about a month ago , and as yet have not ridden it, and wont ride it for another 3 months until I return to Australia So far I have purchased a Vapour and a Whipps bashplate for it, depending on exchange rates I plan on adding (well buying and adding on later) a fair bit more before I return Edit: works better when you actually add a pic too
Sorry fella's but I weakened and replaced the DRZ that I sold earlier this year. Here's the problem I'm faced with every Sunday morning......heads or tails... View attachment 198116
someone asked about crash bars. there are several. it appears the best are from Hepco-Becker. But, given the relatively light weight of the bike, what I did was added a so-called "highway bar" for very little money. Both my DR's have skidplates, so I tapped the frontend of the skidplate and mounted with two bolts a 1" aluminum square tube/bar, and finished off with rubber slip-ons [kinda like grip puppies] and end-caps. In a layover, that bar takes the hit, and props up the side of the bike so that no damage occurs to the motor parts. I also have the Ebay "BBQ Grill" tail rack which doubles as the "bash saver" at rear. having these two standoffs will save a lot of $$$$ <table style="width:auto;"><tr><td><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/VO2gqnV1jxLm5rj8il4aDg"><img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_ul8M-Z63i0I/SM173LDItXI/AAAAAAAAARc/sIAxWkoPRwI/s400/97-Bars2.JPG" /></a></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; text-align:right">From <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/rclaudebro/Motorcyclestuff">Motorcyclestuff</a></td></tr></table>
Does anyone know where I can get in the US a front fender like these two bikes have? Basically something that is not dirt looking but more like street looking. My fender is stock and scratched up very badly. Thanks, Alex
Here's the contact details. They are made here in Oz. With the exchange rate at the moment I reckon you guys would get them for about $80US. The screens are $110.00 + $26.00 freight for light tint , dark tint and clear. If you want colours like red, yellow, blue, green, orange, etc they are $10.00 more. It takes about 10 working days for delivery to the US. I can except VISA, Master card, Paypal or direct bank deposit all prices are in Aust dollar. Cheers Peter PH 61 3 9469 3192 Fax 61 3 9460 7950 Mob 0412 102 029 I've done about 3000 miles with mine and it's been great. He (Peter) can do them in any colour, any tint. He was good to deal with too.
