Wow! That's a ton of mods for your DRZ400 sm. I'll have to take notes, because there are a few that I'd like to use on my older DRZ400 sm that has been garaged for 13 years due to my two failed back surgeries, but I just got it running again and plan to start putting some miles on it in the near future. It's a 2005 model year with less than 4,500 original miles on it that sat unused for over 13 years. I was thinking that maybe I should sell it, but after seeing this, and many other YT videos about the DRZ400, I'm now thinking of keeping it and taking it with me during my coming exploration of North America using my restored 1997 GMC extended cab K1500 and a home made camping trailer. I'll just have to get a hitch mounted carrier to put the bike between the truck and trailer.

I think the 05 was the first year for the DRZ400SM! Don’t sell it! It’s a time capsule!!!!!!! I’d love to resurrect a bike like that! I’m restoring a K5 GSXR1000 that has been sitting since 2015 right now. And the DRZ has way more stuff done to it since then. Many detailed videos on the channel!
