Bro, you gotta get a DR350. I've owned a lot of bikes in my life including XR400, XR250, DRZ400, KLX300, KDX200, and the DR350 is my favorite by far. If you get one try to get the dirt only model, it has a Mikuni TM33 Pumper carb and it's a lot lighter than the duel sport. I've watched all of your videos more than twice, and I know you'll love the DR350.
@@ralphelliott9762 I have no doubt that the DR350 is a fine bike and that Gabe could make it sprout wings. The plot of this story for me however is that a guy takes the the most unlikely piece of crap he can find and afford and still be competitive with it if he has enough heart. "Shredding on a . . . DR200 ?" /subtitle: "It's The Rider Not the Bike!"
Yoshimura pipe and muffler, Hinson clutch, a-kit suspension, Lectron carb takes some time ..... lol! Love what you do!
Can't wait to see the full video. You always do such a great job. Hope you're feeling better, and glad you're still making great content dude.
I'm a bit late here now but, where did you find a DR200 for under 1k, all I see is a sea of "2.5k firm I know what i got sonny"
I’m always amazed at how fast you ride on all of the not very fast bikes 😂. Great to see a new video Gab, I hope you’re doing ok?
I'm doing well now! Definitely a rough year but I got back on my feet
If you've ridden a dr200 you know how nuts this is 🤣🤣
Same thing goes for his Crf230 videos. For him it's like 90% rider 10% bike.
I daily one and this seems almost impossible
@@ethanh3421 the dr200 becomes sooo much more powerful with only a carb swap and modded exhaust. Its night & day.
@@ceaseanddesist8036 what carb do you recommend? I’ve been looking into a new carb lately
@@ethanh3421 if you want something that is really easy to jet get a Mikuni VM26-606. If you are willing to spend some time jetting you can get a OKO 24-28mm. The OKO is flat/D slide so you will get a little better power at small throttle openings, but both carbs will make the Bike a ton better.
Man you continue to show me that it's all about practicing on what you've got....
Truth! , Don't need new bikes, need new SKILLS!
Two legends have returned for our amusement, ladies and gentlemen! It's good to see you back, Bro. I just picked up a mint 94 DR350.
The DR 350 is the best DR Suzuki ever made in my opinion. I liked it better on my XR 400 which is also a great bike.
@@thomasgodlewski1943 I just took it to MotoCove in Gore VA and I was blasting past brand new race bikes, and a couple KTM 2 strokes, and she held up well. I busted the stator cover laying it down on rocks, but I just JD Welded it, and it held up.
Glad that you made time for a ride and got back to the channel! Please keep this channel alive, you have an awesome spirit of true enduro motorcycling. I just bought (two days ago) xr250r (never rode 250 cc enduro before) because your videos inspired me to just go out and have fun instead of saving money for newest KTM and I have not regretted this.
Hey man so great to see your still making content. Ive watched all your vids 2 or 3 times while waiting...
Hail bush tractor!
Glad I am not the only one who beats the piss out of a DR200.
Keep up the good work, man.
Insane riding as usual! I look forward to each one. I can't help but notice a slow down in the videos that helped me through a hard time. I didnt post content for 2 years because I kept thinking every video has to be better than the last.. But every little video matters to the people who are watching!
Finally, a new video. You shred these slow bikes Gabe. Keep it up!
Long time ago Suzuki SP was the Dual Sport and DR stand for offroad only version.You incredibel fast on this littel thumper!
Nobody in the history of the world has ever flogged a DR200 that hard. WELL DONE SIR! I've missed your videos. If the stupid Covid ever lets up me and a buddy are thinking of making the trip from Alberta down to Cali for a Glen Helen endurance race. I'd love to go for a beer with you lol.
First and only video i've seen of someone actually shreding a DR200. Awesome. Have you done any mods to it?
BakerXDerek should take a look at this vid! 🙌🏻, great potential being unleashed from that DR200
What a cool trail. Man you're going to crush it on that DR.
Good to see you back I bought my first dirt bike ever because of you a 1996 xr250r best decision I ever made
I hope u do a build series of this bike!! Where did you find parts for a dr200? This is pretty cool that you are building a bike alot of people would just overlook.
LIL DR... BEAST!
Suzuki DR200 engineers -> 😦
My drz 400 just started doing push-ups. I think it's a little scared it can sense some competition from its little brother!
Wow, takes so much tap dancing on shifter: Bog... bog, shift down bounce off the limiter, shift back up bog. Reminds me of my XR200
That thing REVS now!!! I'm always impressed with the performance you're able to squeeze out of bikes.
Great to have you back!!
Bikes are always faster than the riders...your content proves it 👍😂
Damn, for a little 2 hundo, that thing RIPS!
Nah bro. He rips. Everyone is out buying these quick bikes but they don’t realize it’s not the bike it’s the rider.
Looking forward to the next big video! Hope you've been well!
Next vid: "getting my DR200 "race-ready" with KTM tear-injection"
Awesome, rips nicely! Please do another XR250R video. #RustBucketRacing
I definitely will
The legend is back
It sounds like it needs some cams for more top end. Has the grunt down low but seems to flatten out pretty good higher in the revs. It's a momentum bike! I'm moving out to AZ in a few weeks and would love to go for a ride with you man!
Love your vids mate great footage well done!
Can you do an xr400 video?
The KTM's better watch out !!
So good to see some more content from you love the vidoes
ID love to see you keep the stock suspension. Show everyone how fast you can shred on conventional forks.
Where did you learn to ride like this?
The forks are stock, I just tuned them to work well and I'll be keeping them as they are because they're good enough. Right now the rear shock is 100% stock but I have been working on a swap. If nothing crams in it'll just end up being a revalved stocker!
Glad to see another vid from TTM keep it up man
Greetings From brazil mate! Discovered ur channel a while ago , U really got some skills! you deserved a whole lot of subs , keep up the shredding mate, haha You inspire me!
Crazy how you flog these bikes and they still hold together....Well kinda, mostly motor and clutch, foot pegs and seats are optional equipment right? It's going to be really interesting to see what you can work out with the suspension and how it helps. Some of those hits from a while back looked brutal.
Nice. That doesn't sound like a stock exhaust. what pipe do you have on that?
Can´t wait to see you humiliating Ktms on that thing!
I was wondering what is going on with you and today I clicked the bell button. Few hours after a new video popped!
I didn't enjoy it as much because I suffered from a knee injury 2+ months ago and I didn't make any progress and all I do is thinking is this going to fucking end. Keep rocking bro and stay safe.
Wish you the best mate
@@alessandrogallo7969
Thank you man, all the best to you, too.
Fuck yes! My favorite channel is back!
What do you think on a compare dr200 with a xt225?
What is better pros and cons.
Thank you.
Air cooled motor ftw
Awesome Shred Session brotha!
What did you do suspension wise to this little thing? I'd love to know, thanks.
So you are going to race this instead of the xr250?
This time around, yeah
@@TortureTestMagazine great video tho
Wow
WELCOME BACK
Hey what do you think of an xt225? If you ever get a chance it would be really cool to see you do a video on one. Seems like the type of bike you would rip on pretty good
show us the mods u did to it!
Oh I will!!
Great job on the video
Fuck YEA!!!
That one dislike HAS to be a ktm rider ;)
Awesome! What mods have you done to it? How do you think it stacks up again your previous ttr125?
I got one of these as my first street legal bike. It was a blast but unfortunately not comfortable on long rides. Funnily enough, My dual sported xr250r was much more comfortable.
Yeah, the stock seat isn't optimal. I bought the seat concepts kit for mine and it makes a world of difference. How did you like the honda?
@@dualsportwannabe3708 I actually got a seat concepts seat as well. It did help a bit but not enough to make me want to keep the bike. I loved the Honda. It was my favorite bike and I wish I still had it but it wasn't practical for everyday use and I could only afford one bike at the time so I had to sell it. I remember spending ten minutes after work one day when it was freezing out trying to start it so I could get home.
You're a little rough on that bike buddy!
These things are tanks. I had an '86 and it took everything I threw it at. And then some.
bought a t shirt. Consider paternon for $1 a month per person. Will do so long as you keep making good content. Do it like AvE, make what you want to make.
I saw your order, thank you!
What year is it?
Makes me wish I had a smaller displacement bike in addition to the 600.
Hey, you could have this one or what's left of it when I'm done! I'll be auctioning it off after I'm done with it
@@TortureTestMagazine ahahahahahahah and after you're done are you going to """"put it together again""""" or will you sell a bucket of spare parts of what used to be a bike?
I wish but I'm out of space, 3 trucks, 2 cars, 3 motorcycles, and an atv.
@@highaltitudeexperience not bad man!
@@alessandrogallo7969 don't worry it's all old junk, that's the life of a mechanic, oh and I forgot the boat.
hi what tires are you running here?
Nice KTM 450! Oh wait.
100
Seriously😱😂😂😂👍🇳🇿
God it’s a screamer now hey
I don't think it will survive 24hours of riding because of how much you're having to rev to go those speeds. I might be wrong but it seems like you'd really have to torture it to get it to go as fast as you want for that long. Still a bitchin bike. You did a great job.
I've got some tricks up my sleeve to try to get it to go 24 hours without a meltdown. It's still gonna take some luck though. Same as everyone else out there trying to make one bike survive the whole race. Three little things go wrong in the first hour and after eight more hours, two of those little things turn into big things lol
@@TortureTestMagazine what I don't understand is, why never a higher displacement engine? Not for this particular round because of obvious budget concerns, but in general?
Roughly twice the displacement means roughly half the number of revolutions per race, means half the amount of engine wear per race (at least that's what I expect, given that you only have to twist the throttle half way or so).
Bear in mind I'm not a racer so I understand that there's a lot I don't know, but I've always wondered... The engines are bigger, more mass to have to wear through AND can be ran half as hard to achieve the same speeds.
Is it just because you're committed to the little guys? You want to make the little underdog bikes shine even if it's harder on yourself?
@@JackAmnesiac bigger bikes probably cost more (except for the xr650L) and he goes for the cheaper things available
@@JackAmnesiac I have a tendency to just go with the cheapest thing I can get which tends to be a low power thing but you're totally right on the reliability!
@@TortureTestMagazine I'm excited for your next email about the dr200 progress, and I think I'm going to pick up a few shirts. Hopefully you get at least a little kickback from the shirts.
It was torture to watch this. 😁
fk riding old bikes that fast, not safe i reckon hah
😁 safety is my last priority
She’ll be right mate👍
Have you ridden a newer CRF450RX or R ? I'd think you love it and fly on it. You get every ounce of power out of that bike...I enjoyed the terrain as it reminded me of riding my old '86 XL250R in Oregon as a teenager! Glad you're getting back on your feet & bikes.
Guys I just got a excf 450 2018. I’m sorry. I’m one of them now. Send me to the firing squad. But I still have my drz400e and crf250x .
