WHY I'M REDOING MY SUSPENSION SETUP | DRZ400E

Adventure bikes require a good suspension setup to handle the extra luggage that is thrown onto most riders bikes. In this video I'm tackling my DRZ's suspension setup to get it back handling the way it should.

    Wow yeah those fronts looked real soft. Looking forward to seeing how much better the new gear is

    After having MPE rebuild my suspension to suit 100kg the difference between old a new is unbelievable,where i would once be scrambling for brakes I'm now giving more throttle best money I've spent hands down .

    I feel like this comment has made the round a few times, but I would love to know your process for cleaning up your bike. It always looks brand new even though its clearly being ridden offroad alot.

    If you can see if an Xtrig preload adjuster can be fitted to the rear. Will give you more adjustability when riding with / without luggage. Easier than trying to adjust the suspension rings.

    On mine that is from 2002, i nearly maxed the pre load and the register at the botton on the front and it Is way more stiffer than yours for the rear spring, never touched yet

    Is that an adjustable lowering link or is it standard? Loving the videos mate, good stuff.

    Hey Josh, I'm loving your content. I'm interested in a T7 for adv and knew that you owned one for a short while, I can't seem to remember if you mentioned why you off loaded it? Cheers

    I didn’t really mention it mate. It was mainly financial reasons. I’d have a bike for everyday of the week otherwise 🤣 But basically the DRZ can do everything that it could and I wasn’t as comfortable to take the t7 down an unknown track as I am on the DRZ T7 is still a great bike
