Күн бұрын

These mods are on a DRZ 400, but can be used with any dual sport or enduro motorcycle. As always, these farkles are dirt cheap and tested in the crucible of enduro in Southern Utah's badlands.
See everide.org for more!
I also show some EDC (every day carry) items that I don't go riding without. If you have any suggestions for lightweight additions, please let me know.
And now for the list of mods/farkles covered in this video, complete with links to purchase at the lowest price and chapter markers to jump to in-video!

I agree that the Seat Concepts reskin is a great upgrade. From my decades worth of touring experience the dished seat option from Corbin probably would have been a better bet but I couldn't justify the price tag for a negligibly better (on paper) seating option given that the DRZ's stock seat was good for me up to about mile 400 of +700 mile days. The 15 year old stock foam that was weathered and crumbling on my DRZ just was no longer up to the task during my last long tour. Honestly, IMHO the worst part of the stock seat is the rearward can't when sitting close to the tank. Even cutting the hump out from the front portion of the seat near the tank so that there's more of a forward cant into the tank when the bike is unloaded made the stock seat so much more comfortable.

One of my favorite mods on my DRZ400S is a Headlight Control Module from Fast Eddy Sports. It is a small adapter pigtail that allows me to leave my headlight off when I start my bike and while I ride the forest. To turn it on, I just flip to high beam and back to low. It is great since my battery is not lighting my headlight while trying to start.

I think you should add a tourniquet to your first aid kit.

All 3 of these would be a little bigger than a soda can.

Id suggest putting a kick starter on that bike!!! If you are going out alone its an absolute MUST have on your bike. All models the "E' "S" "SM" can all have a kick starter installed.Batteries can fail, especially the stock drz battery. To that the obvious answer would the the tried and true "bump start" right?? one would hope, but I find personally most of the instances where my bike stalls out, the bike is in a position where it would be very difficult to bump start it if your battery or starter were to crap out on you. I still carry jumper cables when I ride (always packed with the essentials). they are light and easy to install. I kick start my bike all the time for fun and to lighten the load on the battery. Its simple insurance, cheap parts , easy to install. although depending what oversize tank you use, you might have some clearance issues but that can be solved with a shorter kick starter.

TreeK7 Yeah I pretty much just drilled some holes for the scabbard to attach to directly into the plastics. I am a little surprised that it has stayed on as well as it has! I also think it looks awesome :)

I'm adding things to my Amazon cart right now. Your link for the Tusk Front Fender Bag goes to the rear fender pack. That looks like a great item to have.
