Stoked!
Picked up a 2006 DRZ400s. Has about 100 miles on the fresh rebuild. Since it was being rebuilt the PO decided to do a big bore/hotcams mod to make it a 440. I don't have that much time on a stock DRZ400s so I can't compare them all that much but it seems to definitely have a little boost to it. Has brand new Kenda Tires. LED conversions on the lights.
First thing I'm going to do is take it to a local shop right down the street from me for an inspection. The guy I bought it from is definitely a garage mechanic, knew what he was talking about but still want a professional opinion.
After his assessment I will do the following upgrades:
Full exhaust. Most likely FMF.
Clarke gas tank- Not sure on this one but definitely need a new gas tank. Don't like the look of the huge 4 gallon ones. Not even sure if the Clarke is worth it to only add about half a gallon.
Skid Plates?
Once I get the basics to make it better off road I will prob do some unnecessary mods like a new digital gauge and some bark buster/hand guards/whatever, lights, etc, etc.
Thoughts/ opinions?
then plan to ride the heck out of it!!!
