what do u think about this trade

I was thinking of trading my 03 CRF450R for an 04 DRZ 400 I think its sm cuz it has the street tires. I was thinking about the trade cuz the DRZ is street legal. The guy with the DrZ wants some cash too. Does sound like a good deal? Would u do it? If so how much cash. I just like the idea of being able to ride on the street without a problem.

Trade the best supermoto stunt bike out there for a DRZ??? sounds crazy to me, but I have a truck too, don't need a plate for my stunt bike.

Re: what do u think about this trade

Depends on the condition of the bikes. Since the DRZ is a 04 I guess it's the dirt model from the beginning...in that case I'd rather have a crf. The DRZ won't be as fun as ur crf, but if street legal means much for you I guess it's worth it, there are other bikes that are more fun and still possible to have street legal though

Re: what do u think about this trade

HaHa, trading a Honda for a Slozuki is just RETARDED. I dont care if its a motard, stunter or a street bike. Just no way in hell one should trade a Honda for a damn pos Slozuki....Drop that Slozuki one time and it breaks like glass. Drop ur Honda 100 times and it runs just as good as it did before u dropped it the first time.....Go Honda or go Home...=-)

PS: I have an 06 YZ450 thats completely street legal. And i still wouldlnt trade it for a damn Slozuki. Even thought its a Yammy, its still not a Slozuki, hehe...=-)

Re: what do u think about this trade

I guess the DRZ is not a good trade. I don't get to use the CRF often. There's just no good spot out here. Cops **** with you like crazy. I might just sell it. How much can I ask for an 03 CRF450R in great condition? The one complaint I do have is this bitch is hard to start! Anyone have any tricks?

Re: what do u think about this trade

The valves are probably tight. And I have seen some people buy a frame with a title of a xr650L and use it to tag a crf450.

Re: what do u think about this trade

You might want to take it to a honda shop if you arent very mechanicly inclined. basicly just put it on top dead center of the compression stroke(right after the intake valve closes) remove the valve cover and use the feeler gauges to check the clearances. there will be a decompressior on the came that will push the valve down only at start up. it slings out once started and stops hitting the valve cap

Re: what do u think about this trade

hit me up 347-342-6287< i'll give you the info over the phone. other than replacing the hot start cable< the bike is minty. I just changed the plug and oil on it. Bike was never beaten on. It's not street legal. has a bigger sprocket on the rear, I forgot how many teeth I went up.

I need to take some better pics but this is all i have at the moment.

this thing is a beast, I wish I had more places to ride it. I bought it a year ago and i've only ridin it 3 times. cops **** with you a lot out here. so it makes no sense to keep it. I was looking to trade it for something street legal, or if I can sell, I can put that cash towards another bike. Like an f4i, I've wanted one for a while now.

Re: what do u think about this trade

haha a drz will not break when you drop it. its not a streetbike.. but i think instead of trading you should put that money into your crf for wheels and tires
