I forgot to ad, I have the full service manual to go with it as well..

 

why are you selling jb???

 

I want to get a DRZ400 Supermoto. I don't do all that much off road stuff. And what I do is out in Colorado at altitude.. I need a little more horsepower.

 

right on. good luck with your sale

 

You should contact Iowaguy. He's got a DRZ400SM - brand new, but last I recall I think he misses the KLX.

 

Shhhh! It been nice around here without he-who-must-not -be -named.

For what it is worth, I happen to have both the DRZ400SM (for 2 years now) and am breaking in my 2007 KLX250s. My SM has been dyno-tuned for my altitude (5200') with Yosh pipe, K&N, airbox mod, and proper jetting. Rocket ship performance compared to stock. I've avoided the 39mm FCR carb for fear of interfering with super reliability and one-touch starting. Gob bless Suzuki.

My verdict comparing the two bikes: You can't. Apples and oranges. I love the DRZ for around town hooliganism. The KLX is great for riding out 20 miles to do some rabbit shooting. For trips, my Harley Road King. As has been mentioned many times before, dual purpose has its compromises.

BUT-ifI had to stay with only one bike forever (and I've been riding 40 years) just for the pure joy of riding, it's the DRZ, hands down. And I just sold my Hayabusa after 20,000 miles and 4 years of riding it. I've had many bikes since the mid-1960s, and I'm 60 years old. So, in all of that, the DRZ SM with some performance upgrades is the most fun on two wheels. Including the new Ducati Hypermotard--which EVERYONE needs to test ride.
