Kinda want to have a street legal drz before school starts. Just waiting on my refund...it can come fast enough ha. I've already got a list of about 20 bikes in my area I'm looking at. Is there anyone on R3V in the Phoenix area that has a dual sport/supermoto? Also, I do want to make a trip out to California possibly next summer and ride through some of the mountain, ie. Big Bear. Where do you guys in California usually ride?
About the only thing SM's aren't good for is long freeway miles, A DRZ will do it all day long but you won't be very happy. They're pretty light and you get pushed around a bit by the turbulence coming off other vehicles.
My area I spend most of my time is in between hwy 50 and hwy 80 between Folsom Lake and Lake Tahoe, good god there is a shit load of everything and anything you'd ever want to ride on while on a supermoto.

Best ride for around town and tight twisties. long distance ugg. While they will do 100+ they fill strung out and the wind buffeting tires you out.
