I believe it’s a 140, and yes the way the bike looks sold me on it, while I wouldn’t have been with it in the stock form. Some do fit upto a 160 on the back.

There is a saying that the best camera out there is the one you have on you, similar thing applies to bikes the best one out there is the one that’s readily available to ride.

DRZ’s are very very bottled from the factory and are nothing impressive in stock form, but if you like the chassis enough to improve on it (they are comparatively cheap too, when compared to similar SuMo’s, so you should have $$ left over) they are just fine for little maintenance do everything machine.

Some downfalls, 2x4 seat, 5 speed, metal frame (still damn light), and will need basic mods to get the powerband back.
