WHY DOES NO ONE TALK ABOUT THE WR500

because DRZ

Because it is a 2stroke and dbt is for slow pigfat pussybike 4strokes only

because it's discontinued and rare and really pointless for most dirt bikers

I might actually be able to swing that. You doing it South to North I assume?

DRZ's literally struggle to make it half way to WR250R's first valve check without catastrophically failing on multiple consecutive motorsper bike

>14.5 hours to Sierra Vista
Guess I'll have to find something to do in LA for at least one night, because 14.5 hours riding means probably 18 trip time, dunno if I wanna swing that in one day.

What's your plan? Camping, number of days etc.

I'm 1000% convinced you're KTM a shit guy and just got bored.

ITT: DRZfags furiously googling to find the few rare occurrences where a WRR has any sort of engine failure to try to combat the endless onslaught of DRZ's with bottom end failures.

Suzukifags triggered to the max. Mission accomplished.

Yep. Probably going to join it from I10 and head north from there at least to Flagstaff.

...

There are just as many of both.

Took the time to read those this time
#1 guy lugged the shit out of it with highway gearing
#2 Moisture contamination and too long between oil changes
#3 No idea miles on it or anything so idk
#4 Yep that motor was a shit
#5 Possibly more moisture contamination, possibly a shit
#6 Ex race bike, guy lugged the motor alot, possible oil starvation, still motor failure though.

I took the bait, you happy now?

see:
and

>>DRZ400S,SM
>>DRZ400E
>>DRZ400K
literally the same bikes and the same motors with minor differences.

>DRZ125
>DRZ70
shit no one bought and no one cares about.

>wr confirmed for shit

>/dbt/ is at war
I hate them both so fuck it.

Hey everyone shut the fuck up about the DRZ/WR and post your bikes

...

>DRZ failing under perfectly reasonable conditions with practically no miles on the clock
>retards still trying to make excuses for them

topkek

>>dat space
>>the lengths a suzukifag will go to to try and hide DRZ shitness
>>not even cleveror slick about it.
>DAT SPACE
lol wut
You have nothing left to cling to, give it up.

what if i own a suzukid DRZ400SM (aka godbike)?

>perfectly reasonable conditions
>abuse and neglect is perfectly runnable
Please don't ever have children
Lol not like a bitch would fuck you anyway.

Uhh, I'm not sure what to do.

sure thing ;^)

>damage control by trying to incorperate a space in the WR250R name that doesnt exist in order to try and gather more hits on a search engine.

DRZfags are literally this desperate.

E has a different carb and cams and base gasket
K has E parts and a different flywheel

>perfectly reasonable use is considered "abuse and neglect" by DRZ fags because their shitbike is made of poor quality glass and cant even make it to their first valve adjustment

topkek.

like i said
>minor differences

still the same seize-happy bottom end that suzuki failed at designing.

>thinking a space makes a difference
If anything it should narrow it further.
Look you've already been proven wrong, stop resulting to elementary arguments and move on.

>>thinking a space makes a difference
try searching with and without the space, retard.

>DRZfags literally this desperate.

Bread on rally bike or gtfo.

Post your 701 fagget

>clinging to the last hope even though they lost
Now that's what I call desperate
Just like the wr?

...

>Dozen DRZ motors all with a simple search that failed from the same failure point
>they literally can only find two WRR's with any sort of documented engine failure.

DRZfags on suicide watch.

>Just like the wr?
There is almost nothing in common between the WRR and WRF motors. You have no idea what you are talking about.

...

...

Bikes are trash

oh right

>dozens of drz motors failed
>dozens of wr250r motors failed
Who gives a shit dude, all of you actually.
I know you all act like shitposting is a 9-5.
But it's crossed the point where this is only driving me away from both bikes.

>Having moisture from water in crankcase is perfectly reasonable
>Single track with highway gearing that lugs the shit out of your motor till it blows up is perfectly reasonable
>Not doing oil changes is reasonable
I feel bad for your bike, if you even have one

>Rear wheel swap requires muffler to be taken off
Why the fuck do manufacturers keep thinking that subjecting people to this meme is a good idea?

Headlight on or wierd lighting?

>being triggered this hard because a DRZ is too fragile to deal with situations other dual sports laugh at.

drzfags in serious suicide watch now. This isnt a joke anymore. guys knock it of, they might actualy hurt themselves this time.

>Ben drunk for like 8 hour staight
>wanna go for a ride
>cant stop drinkin
Gotta fix my prioritis here

Dat superduke tho

>damage control
Just stop drinking?

My lights were on in that pic.

Nice damage control

>trying to call damage control when your damage control has been called out.

keep crying about how fragile DRZ's are fags, topkek

Im convinced this is one loser arguing with himself hoping to stir up an actual argument.

>any other cheap ass 125cc:
>"ugggggg, eurocuck shit. no thanks i'm AMERICAN"

It's like two bolts, who cares?

>trying to call damage control when your damage control has been called out.

Yeah that's exactly what you're doing

please leave cyclecruza

>telling an alcoholic to just stop drink
It doesn't work ill tell ya
Didn't work on me want work on im

>GUYS DRZS ARE GOOD THEY JUST CANT HANDLE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR WITHOUT BLOWING UP

literally your argument.

lel

You can have that, you can have an illegally loud shorty muffler that looks like shit, you can have a long ass bike that handles like shit, or you can have the muffler stuffed under the seat so now you have absolutely no underseat storage and need panniers for fucking everything, and probably can't even use a bungee net without melting the hooks unless the bike has specialized cargo net hooks (it probably doesn't, especially not if panniers are a dealer option)

Yes sir

>shitposting this hard
Dont you have a minimum wage midnight shift to be at?

Do I need anything other than the two jets to rejet a carburetor? I see that there are a lot of carburetor jet kits floating around that come with a bunch of stuff, but they just look like a waste of money. All of the guides I read don't mention any of that extra stuff.

gearing way taller than stock, mounting giant hard cases and a 7 gallon tank and changing the oil half as often is not normal wear and tear

>two jets
Depends on the bike, mine has three jets
You don't really need anything else desu

So the bike cant handle a couple extra pounds?
What if a fat rider was on it?

Again
>Normal wear and tear
>Water in motor, not changing oil

>big bad 400cc bike can't handle normal wear and tear
>little yamaha 250 does exact same thing and begs for more while being literally better at everything

LOL suzukifags on major double serious suicide watch. No joking guys seriously stop. They cant take any more.

So basically
>WR FAGS BLOWN TF OUT
just in case you haven't noticed.

see:

...

And yet a honda will handle that for hundreds of thousands of miles

my carb has a main, slow, starter, leak, slow air, and needle jet
