ADVGD did you make the soft luggage system on the KTM that is on the website you linked, do you still have the DRZ?

The KTM with soft luggage is owned by a different chap, the article on his soft luggage racks can be found here: Soft luggage racks

The DRZ400 is the bike I currently ride, using the hard luggage

A friend has the WR and doesn't like to cruise any fast then 65mph. If you keep the DRZ at that speed it hardly needs to be geared higher then stock.
A SV650 would be a nice street bike. They don't jump or go through creed beds very well.

yeppers!

mine looks like hell, and has been been dragged through it.

to get a bike with compatible fun to dollars spent ratio, thwtd hard to do

Don't know if anyone is looking or not - but I'm selling some take-off parts.

I _think_ it's okay to post links to for/sale items, if not let me know.

For Sale Linkage

Thanks!

any recommendations on the most compatible aftermarket setup? BTW...don't want to go the HID route due to cost.

Yes... Unabiker.

The IMS tank is unlikely to be any tighter than my Safari - I believe that it isn't. The Safari was initially very tight, but the plastic tank has settled with age.

Just a word of caution... The bolt heads at the rear of the guard should not be allowed to rub the tank. I use a packing strip between the guard and the tank to ensure that it doesn't.

I don't have an interest in the company, but I have tried a few guards and the Unabiker are the only guards that are worth the money and effort.

I use unabiker radiator guards with my IMS tank. It's a tight fit, i had to modify the guards and ended up gluing a strip of inner tube to the outside of the guards for extra protection. i also drilled out the threads on the radiator where the tank bolts on because it became a total PITA with the guards. I now just use a nut and bolt...

From what I've read IMS tanks vary largely in shape and size...

So I'm looking at getting another drz...found a nicely sorted SM for 4k but it has 17.5k miles.... What say the group? My other option is a new S model...but I really want an sm with a set of s wheels. 17.5k a deal breaker or things to check for before buying?

Keep checking cl daily, 4k for 17.5k miles is WAY TOO HIGH, theres much better deals out there.

nrspence · 11-20-2012, 10:12 PM

Dang I'm so back and forth with buying a DRZ or WR.
