[QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 144589, member: 18302"] My buddy has one that I've ridden many times in the woods. I am 6'0" and 190. The DRZ is a fun bike that handles very well for its weight; it is certainly woods worthy. His has Dunlop 756's and those are very good tires for where we ride. Suspension is plush on rocks and roots and will probably be too soft for you. When hammering hard the suspension acts a little 'busy' and would certainly benefit from a revalve, but for a stock trail bike it isn't too bad if you like plush. The bike tracks straight and keeps its composure even when you are pushing it. For its actual weight, the bike feels light and well balanced, and IMO Suzuki did an excellent job with the frame geometry and ergonomics. If you are really pushing hard you will notice the weight under braking (it will not stop like a CR) and when you need to change direction really quick. Stock, its a pretty easy bike to ride quickly, but like any bike it will benefit from some fine tuning and a steering damper. [/QUOTE]
