[MrSeanysl]

[TheNizz95]

[dragracing4life1]

Hey man I just bought a 11 drz400sm and im thinking about buying the 440cc kit but im worried about it becoming unreliable and I was wondering if yours is still reliable as it was when you had it stock

[kpertchik]

Nice looking bike. I saw your other videos and never saw the third gear power wheelies without clutching like you said it does. In fact all I saw was straight flat acceleration with zero wheelies. My XR400 power wheelies through fourth gear no clutching, but it definitely has much less mid and top end hp than your bored DRZ. I'd love to see se decent wheelies.

[coneheaddfc]

@kpertchik The gearing on your XR400 will be vastly different and aid with power wheelies and feel better for the low end torque as you pointed out. Karl actually uses a smaller back sprocket as standard, and 17" road wheels, instead of the presumably off road tyres on yours.

I have seen guys on DRZ's power wheelie in fourth, but they have gearing that restricts the top end, which Karl has gone the other way with his gearing.

hi mate i have just bought a drz400sm looking for a few mods like what you have on your bike..

where did you get the samco hoses, chain guard, sprockets and chain (also what teeth and links do you have?)

also where did you get also the anodised red bits on the engine and radiator guards?

mine is a yellow drz but looking to put anodised blue parts if available on my bike.. please comment back! cheers great vids will subscribe

[CR125MANIAC]

i'm 16 so i cant get anything over 125

[destructus25]

Thats a really nice looking DRZ u have mate.

[ThaBR33D]

What made you choose this kit over any others? I am currently looking at the yoshimura stroker 450 kit.

[fragmasterkarl]

@ThaBR33D well the yoshimura kit is not just a big bore it's a stroker kit.. So your be replacing the crank to which give you more cc's . Mine is just a big bore.. Reason went Athena is it's the best brand and has better cooling over another kits.. But the cylinder works big bore kit is just as good.. :-)

[Ericp808]

Nice job looks great! Where did you get the chain guard? Can't find one any where. Is it custom?

[fragmasterkarl]

@Ericp808 wheelingcyclesupply :-) google it

[Sonaris100]

@kaiser9100 hahaha!

[fragmasterkarl]

@kaiser9100  hehe :-)

[fragmasterkarl]

@MrKaiserRolls yer its the same as the drz e models used in 2002 ish years.. But brand new of course.. Got it from us in the end mate :-).. When I get all my jetting right first running very rich at the moment :-/

[rnrmoto]

nice m8! what does the 39mm FCR Carb helps for??thanks

[fragmasterkarl]

@rnrmoto Adds power :-)

[Eltern10]

you invest a lot of money in that bike....why don't you save it until you have enough for an Husaberg or an ktm 690 smc? Do you love Suzuki DRZ 400 SM so much?

Greetz chris from austria

[Sonaris100]

@Eltern10 I guess it's cause they require alot more mainteance than the DRZ, you can get a DRZ to 50-60 bhp, and still have alot less maintenance requirements than the race tuned bikes like the KTM'S, Husa's, Huskies etc. ^^

[Crana]

@Sonaris100 not really mate... still should change the oil every 500 - 800 miles with this kit on, less if you ride like a maniac! It's certainly no longer a 3K service commuter once you start messing with the engine. Personally I own a DRZ and will be selling it for a Husky 510SMR or something... more power to people who love the DRZ enough to make it into a power house :-) I just haven't got the cash or the patience for such things.

[Sonaris100]

@Crana Hehehe, cool stuff Crana......your from same forum as me right?? yammy one? i recognized ur name a while ago hehe :P didn't think you would be selling the DRZ, sell it to me :D

[Crana]

@Sonaris100 i dont think i am actually, ive been on the line about it but I can't find a husky so I will most likely keep the DRZ until next year or something... aye im on the dtr125 forum, drzuk, bcf etc :P

[Sonaris100]

@Crana Good to hear :) i just scanned the bay and saw a 510 smr thats only done 100 miles but it is 3.2 grand, probably make an offer of 3 grand and get it, no idea if thats reasonable for one though?

[fragmasterkarl]

@Eltern10 What sonaris said :-).. I like to know ifi click the start button it will start :-).. Unluck alot ktms... Husabergs out there.. Seen the problems rather not have the issues..

Moneys not my issue if I wanted a 690 or something I cound buy :-)... Maybe get one for weekend toy one day but the drz ticks all my boxes :-)

Thanks karl

[Eltern10]

@fragmasterkarl

Oh ok....I have also a motorbike, a derbi drd racing 50 because I am not old enough for to drive with faster bikes...I really love it, I have also tuned a lot and instead of 45 kmh it runs 95kmh with excellent acceleration, but I have to take care that police don't get me because with 17 I am not allowed to drive faster than 45 xD

[omalleydavid]

How come you didnt buy the Enduro drz and then start the mods?

[Sonaris100]

@omalleydavid Why would he do that?

[dominiclutwyche]

Is that ur range rover?

[fragmasterkarl]

Enjoy. Dyno video will be uploaded 7th/04/2011
