    MuddySump ...2 years on, and the DRZ400E is still sold new in Australia. High lift cams, FCR39 with AP...all the basics for a light adventure bike with plenty of inexpensive aftermarket parts.

    MuddySump Morning!- yes we are off to Western Sahara in the next month & again will film it; to be released November(ish)- (the last one took 4 months to edit)...but as I see your vids are excellent; so you will know the time it takes just to film & edit, let alone add music, graphics and a storyline. I was looking for a DRZ, as I thought my XT might not get rebuilt in time...It has now been done..but im concerned! Keep your vids coming- they are really well put together & helpful!- Regards Rod

    Yea, filming something certainly makes it all take so much longer. Sahara should be good, watched Austin Vince's Mondo Sahara a few times.

    Don’t think so. I think they’re designed for light people so might want a firmer spring

    Yup the stock spring can only do so much. I am 215 w/gear and purchased an Race Tech Shock Spring - 5.7 kg/mm SRSP 672757. Planned this as a short term upgrade before revalving and changing the fork springs. Gota fix the rear before you can fix the front :)
