Heavy and mildly tuned.
Could be whipped into shape with a shit load of $$$$.
Wouldn't bother meself.
Just get an XR650 and go hooning on street tyres/rims.:Punk:

its alot more expensive to begin with though, and yes i do realise its a better bike, much more better bike. but one of the more attractive things about the FMX is the price, other than the looks.

been reading forums, apparently just putting a decent exhaust system on it helps the lack of power quite a bit. oh how i love the twin exhausts on it!

apparently its better than a DRZ, so i dont see why they dont have it here. ( and i make no claims, its just what ive read online)
