Considering my options

[Captian soup]

so the wrs/yzfs, crfs, smrs are all quite powerful, but are they able to be commuters as well as weapons of mass entertainment? do you have to change oil as often as the dirt riders? thats seems... unfavorable.

am i better off getting the heavier and less powerfull drz?

oh im talking about the 400s

Reliable fun commuter that doesnt need maintaining every heartbeat-DRZ-sm all the way! Afraid the others dont come as motards without $$$ and effort and they are still not street legal[wr excepted]. Need more performance-a few simple mods helps the drzs heaps-need more-add $$$ and get a Husky or a KTM.
