Maybe my biggest regret in my dual sport and adventure motorcycle riding career so far has been selling my 2020 Suzuki DRZ400s. I thought I needed a "better, faster" bike and sold it to upgrade to a Honda CRF450l. I've said for years now that if I ever got the chance to get my old DRZ back I would take it and well...you'll never guess what someone emailed me about just a few days ago.
My birthday is in two days and I'm headed to Salem to buy back my favorite motorcycle of all time.
Come along as we pick up and unload the new bike and talk about why I bought a DRZ400s (again) and what my plans are for the bike.
Those of you who have been around for a while will definitely remember this dual sport bike. I'm so stoked that it has finally come back home where it belongs.
Is this the best Dork in the Road new bike day ever?
