And back on topic....

If your looking for a fun little bike to either supermoto or greenlane (both if you have the wheels) with spares quite cheap and easily available then I dont think you could go too far wrong with the DRZ to be honest.
shame you werent looking earlier as one went really cheap from the midlands superbikes closure.

Always tempted by a DRZ, but I've been barking on about one for about 5 years now. Funds always get spent elsewhere and I do wonder if I could justify having 2 bikes in the garage.

I'm sure they could be a great commuting tool and cheaper to run than a lot of other bikes.

That depends on how hard your *rse is vs how long your journey is.

Most ive done in one go without stopping is about 80 miles, but god my ass knew about it.
I picked up some padded MX shorts at the dirt bike show so im hoping they will help a bit.
Read on thumper talk that someone in the states had a suzuki gel seat for his, so they must produce them, maybe a possible in the future.

Completely missing the point of a light off roader ... that you'll be picking up a lot.
