Just registered and thought I would introduce myself. I am 46 and have been riding since I was 11. Mostly dirt bikes with a few odd street bikes in between. Most of my bikes in recent history have been KTM's, with the most recent being a 2000 Duke II which I just traded for a DRZ 400.
Anyway, I had an opportunity to do a straight-up trade for the DRZ and this bike has really been set-up right by the previous owner. I loved the Duke, but it was really street-only, and I have always wanted a true hard-core dual-sport and the DRZ fits the bill perfectly. Good to be back in the saddle of a real dirt-bike again!! :cool:
