It’s wicked easy to work on them. If you can turn a god damn wrench you can work on the bike. If you can’t do the maintenance then you shouldn’t be buying a motard to begin with. Give me 6 grand and you can have my bike. Seriously. :excited If you know how to ride do not get a DRZ 400. Sooo slow and bulky. Fuck those bikes, they are fake motards. I also wouldn’t buy a new one unless you want to get raped on sales tax. Also the 08’s have a lot of problems with the fuel injection units (first year for FI on them), so i’d stay away from that year. I guess for 09 they fixed it though… --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/thinking-about-buying-a-motard/244156)._
