Still a little too hot to ride mine here in Phoenix area. Planning to do a couple more rides in Oct. and then I'll probably be selling mine too. Prob going to get a Kove 450 cuz I want to do BDRs. I'll miss the little green machine, tho!
Just sold my 250. Picked up a KLX400 {DRZ} as a project, but gonna ride it rest of season and mayb a desert trip this winter. My thoughts : The power on the DRZ is crazy good, typical power mods its faster than my stock CRF450L. Suspension is better also. However, its feels a lot heavier. The power on the road is a blast, cant use it all offroad. The KLX was way better offroad, tractors smoother and hooks up. Handles better being lighter. Trade Offs! Might buy a newer DRZ next year in black or grey, or a KLX300 in the new colors. And possibly do a Adventure Rally X navigation tower. Either way, both great bikes for riding how we do. My 250 just didnt have enough power end of day, rung the hell out hauling my 215lbs at 65mph if i gotta cover ground.
@@c0ck_l2oach75 the bike was fine after the crash but I had it listed even before I crashed for other reasons. The crash just bent a foot peg and scratched some plastics. It’s a tough bike but I was less tough.

For BDR I get the 450. On these tighter woods trails I’d probably smash into a tree with a 450.
Does it feel like a new bike compared to the stock version??..

Would you recommend your setup of this bike for a beginner...

I still think about a drz-sm often for a commuter and street fun.
Yo lets ride I'm in Marietta right by the big chicken on my klx250s all the time
I'm down the road from you. We should ride sometime.
I crashed and shattered my foot and now the bike is gone. 😢
@@atlklx5168 nooooooooooooo
@@atlklx5168 you may have just convinced me to going back to my Tech 10s for everyday riding...
@@atlklx5168damn, that sucks. Did they total it or after the crash you decided that was enough ? Heal up.
