Re: Suzuki 400SM

IMPREZAWD- Raleigh is cool can't complain lots of bikes,B*****s,etc(but it an't N.Y.C). Cant wait to get my bike then its 12ok all day every day. And ill be sure to hit you if I need help. Just dont forget about the stalling problem when you solve it. By then ill be ready to move up to the mods

Re: Suzuki 400SM

And yes I live in Hollywood FL. Also I'm having problems finding a nice place to practice. Today I ordered the yoshimura full exhaust, can't wait.

EDIT: Thanks for all the tips, this weekend I have plenty of time I hope to practice some.

Re: Suzuki 400SM

the reason why the bike most likely stalls is from the sensor that registers that its going to flip.

Re: Suzuki 400SM

where would this tip sensor most likely be located? If any one finds out if this is the fault,please post. 2 more weeks and my DRZ will be at 12ok or bust.

Re: Suzuki 400SM

That price for a used one seems alittle steep, i just bought a 05 brand new for 5799.00, you should talk to your dealer they are still out there.

is that out of the door? if it is then you got a great deal :YEAH

I'm pretty happy with my bike, the deal is done.
I been riding almost everyday, and I even getting a little better on wheelies . I think that I have 2 more weeks before I can keep it up for a long time.

Re: Suzuki 400SM

I have to wait till i think this wensday before my exhaust system is in, a buddie of mine told me on the full systems because it has the rm suspension that you have to watch the pipe around the rear spring because it is so much bigger, I will have to get some pictures of the bike once it is on.
