Yes... GrimReaper...

 

It is about time you come across to the Dark Side. We have been waiting for you.

 

Knee sliding on a DRZ is a very scary but addictive thing.

 

Its quite a long ways to the tarmac requiring about a 45 degree lean angle.

 

Like this i think i better off sticking my legs out, just gotta get some motard boots with metal studs to get sparks off like you did with your sliders on your CBR.

I fear to stick out my foot in the high speed corners and have actually used the knee to pivot up the the bike during quite a few potential lowside situations already.

 

The beauty of a supermotard? Can ride it like a sportsbike, can do really last minute braking, can corner like a sportsbike or dirt bike and the best part is... can overshoot corners, go scrambling in the gravel pits and come back on track AND continue racing.

 

And yeah, I have crashed 3 times and dislocated a left shoulder once but all the repairs that was needed on the DRZ was a handguard change due to cosmetic reasons.

 

You WILL really be PUSHING your riding limits with a supermotard coz you are not held back by the cost factor of crash repairs.

 

Sliding before, into and out of the corners, doing sudden line changes in the corner would become a normal thing...... things that would bring our yarbles suddenly to our throats and sudden throttle closures if we are on sportsbikes.

Arrrrr, now the only prob is, suddenly this bike is so hot in singapore, its hard to get a 2nd hand one. If you got some bros of yours in SG selling pls let them know i exist to buy from them. Resonable price of cos, not like some guys here seliing 1 year stock bike for about 11k, thats the brand new machine price from shops.

Anyway have consider before but i reckon the maintanence very high for it?
