@@linksgarage1985 my DRZ has been my best friend in my motorcycle journey. Her name is Rachel. I don't get too emotional about my other bikes, but I have seen a lot of the world on her and experienced a lot of great things on that shitty stock seat haha. Thinking this year I'm going to do a refresh and get some new parts going for her. I had one issue where I blew the base gasket at around 90kmiles so I did a whole teardown and rebuild back then. Tranny and everything else has been bulletproof. Broke a clutch cable and put a hydraulic on it. Lots of different tires. A few batteries and petcocks too. I geared it 15/38 for the highway to commute on when I got it which is what racked the miles on it. (Taller gears and shorter chain.) Dynojets in the stock carb which I've rebuilt so many times I can't even remember. Yoshimura RS2 exhaust. Coolant changed twice. Brake fluid maybe like 4 times. It doesn't get too hot usually, but now I've started tracking it again. Oil change about every 2k with Lucas full synthetic. Now it stays with a 14/38 most of the time and is my fun bike. I'll try to put up some more videos, it's been a while. Keep up the good work on your channel.

Ayyyeee. There ya go. So how is it?? Bout to order mine today. Thank you bro. Am I going to need the E model fitting you linked? Will the stock work if I rig it lol Oh an I noticed your 22 doesnt have the vacuum fuel hose. Basically when you take your tank off my 2014, you disconnect your petcock and right behind it is the vacuum line. Then you can pop off your tank. Didn’t see that with yours. Might be the newer models. I simplified my oiI over flow. Deleted the black box and have the air hose that connects on the top of the engine routed counterclockwise up under the tank and going over the frame so it peaks out in front of the tank then down along side the top of the engine then back up the right. I have a small air filter on the end of the hose an it’s positioned up right next to the radiator cap. Then caped off the 1 hose on the back right. She rips. Looks cleaner.
