I hope you all like it, I wanted to build an adult-proof little one with the feel of a stock CRF50.

Having let a few people ride it as well as myself the considered opinion is that I have achieved that. Keeping the engine stock means the bike is a little under-powered to what I am normally used to...but it does mean you can keep it pinned in most places!

To the best of my knowledge it is the first tricked up DRZ70 in the UK.

Suzuki DRZ70 specification list:

Brand New Canadian Specification Suzuki DRZ70 in Yellow sent to UK
Black Suzuki Plastics
Spare seat modified with high seat foam and gripper seat cover
Gold FAST50's Billet Speed Forks
FAST50's Billet Alloy wheels
Michelin Starcross 2.5 x 10 tyres
Bilet Alloy Tyre Valve Caps
FAST50's Billet Alloy 38T 420 rear sprocket
Renthal R1 420 Chain
Modified/Machined 13T 428 front sprocket
Chain roller - Modified frame to fit.
ELKA 260mm Piggy back shock
Two Brothers CRF50 plus 2 Alloy Swing Arm
CRF50 Brakeplates
DP-Brakes Brake Shoes
Modified/Machined Brake Arm
FASTWAY Evo Footrests - modified to suit
Two Brothers M6 Exhaust Pipe
Two Brothers Graphics/Decals
Billet Alloy Vented Petrol breather
NGK CR7HSA Sparkplug
PRO TAPER Mini Racer Raw Handle Bars
FAST50's Billet Alloy Throttle with Perch
FAST50's Billet Alloy Lever in Black

Re: FOTM September 2008

I used to feel like my bike was tight but after this site Im left feeling like I got a budget bike. But it is still the best thing in my life. It lets me lube it up and ride it til Im sore, never talks back, it likes it rough, it likes it soft and sometimes it even fights me to get on top.... hahaha just a lil suggestive humor
