I don't even have a DRZ and I still watched the whole video... Why is your footage so beautiful and your editing so dialed? Such an enjoyable vlog to watch
Your style of passing on information is really good dude. Really easy, to the point, precise. And the production quality. Oof. Awesome. Keep it up my man. 🎉
@@wolfram608 Haha thanks! I definitely have a few years of editing experience but these vids are my first time ever talking on camera… trying to not hate it 💀
this is some top tier video quality for only having 1k subs, great video. Also as for the 3x3 mod, if you have a jet kit and are delivering more fuel to your bike, it is beneficial to also have more air (3x3 mod) to compensate and have the optimal air fuel ratio.
Good editing, good music at just the right volume, good looking scenic city, good information. Keep it up leaf boy, your making me want a supermoto again and I've got 2 new songs to listen to from your vids.
Your first video got me hooked and I tuned in the second with food on my plate and I couldn't get a spoonful in my mouth, your style of editing is like eye candy and each segment just flows in so smoothly, would love to know your editing workflow and how you make these videos, love from Malaysia
Great job on the video! Bike is sick. I ride a crf 250l and one of the best mods I did was going up 2 teeth on the rear sprocket. It added torque everywhere and didn’t mess up the speedometer. I mostly trail ride but do commute on it too. Grew up on dirt bikes then rode sport bikes for the last ten + years. These days I prefer riding dirt bikes on the roads more than anything. Looking to get a DRZ to replace my sport bike.
I commented on your first video saying i also have a Drz400sm, and man oh man this video is so helpful, i tipped my bike over once and broke the clutch so i had to get that replaced. When you make a video over what modifications you do make do handle grips as well. LOVEING YOUR STUFF MAN
I have jet black a 2007 SM. It is about a week from being back from the shop, getting the Keihin FCR carb rejetted (of course, with JD jets!). I bought mine with the Yoshi stainless steel exhaust already on it. The mods I currently have on my SM are: -Keihin FCR 39mm carb -3x3 airbox mod -fender eliminator to remove that plow from the back -4.5 gallon polymer gas tank -stainless steel braided brake lines -Michelin Pilot Power front and rear tires I'm looking forward to seeing what that rejetted Keihin can do.
This channel is absolutely amazing! im about to get a DRZ400 as my first bike and this helped me a ton in planning my mods. can wait to see more from you!!
Just found your channel, awesome videos!! I’ve got a 23 DRZ, yoshimura full exhaust, 3x3 mod, twin air filter, fender eliminator, Baja designs twin led headlight, and Lectron Pro carb. Still trying to dial in the lectron carb but love the bike. Finally found a channel making some DRZ content!! Keep it up
First video was great and now this! You made me pull the trigger on the jd jet kit. Now to make up my mind on the 3x3 mod haha. Thanks for the amazing content, hope you make it big!
Awesome content. I have a 23’ Drz with similar mods. Proper tires will be my next upgrade. I just got a gpr 300 on the rear but I think I’m upgrading to Dunlop Mutants this winter
Had a DRZ SM many years ago. Sold it and regretted doing so that I just got another motard because they are honestly so much fun to ride. Another great mod for it is the case savers. If you’re going to practice doing wheelies or trying to slide it these are a must.
Another outstanding video. I grew up riding motocross and have now owned everything from Harleys, sportbikes, sport touring, adventure, and my favorite by far was an Aprillia Dorsoduro 750. Had the pleasure of working at one of the largest online powersport auctions where it was my job to test ride, take pictures of, and evaluate every kind of motorcycle you can imagine. I love riding a supermoto because it feels like a dirt bike, and that's what I learned to ride on so it feels the most natural. My only hesitation on getting a DRZ400sm or any supermoto is the lack of power on the highway for taking long trips and limited luggage capacity. If I ever buy another supetmoto, it will have to be a second bike because of its serious limitations. They are indeed the most fun motorcycles I've ever ridden. Keep up the excellent videos! 🤘🏻
I feel like you made this video just for me. Couple months ago I picked up a used 2006 DRZ sm in black with 30k miles bone stock. Put exactly the same tail tidy, pegs and levers, but all in black. It has an exhaust but no headers, I need that JD kit asap but it doesn't ship to Greece. Was looking at the same supermoto tire for my next swap. I'll also paint or get graphics for it (probably a cheap set from china). The led bulb is a game changer, it was my first mod. Led turn signals weren't a good experience though since it needs a new relay or resistors wired up. And I need to service the top end and put a new cam chain in it sadly. I'm in love with this bike, might remain my daily for many years to come. Edit: Thanks a lot for the abundance of info, your work inspired me and probably many others.
Yoo thanks so much man, I appreciate that! I think the mods we both ended up doing are just what everyone with a DRZ inevitably feels they need. Stoked you like the sm as much as I do
I have the led turn signals, and I just left it on hyperflash. Haven't been hit or ticketed yet LOL! If you are doing the engine anyway, I would recommend upgrading a few of the internals to make it an E spec - it's like 20% more power than the SM. With more power, you can also install the ACT gearing set that make the transmission a true wide ratio one. First gear does not change, but you can cruise at 100km/h at around 5000 rpm. Super cool. Also: we are heading to Greece in a few months. Besides Athens, where should we check out? Cheers!
@@machupikachu1085 Thanks for the huge insight! My main issue is that it needs a timing chain asap, as the previous owner said, been looking for a good mechanic and time to do it. To my ears it sounds fine, maybe a little noisy when it really warms up. It also backfires once every time I let off or shift. Doesn't consume oil which is a huge plus. I might go for a manual tensioner to extend the life out of the chain a bit. My other issue is the heat. I'm not sure if it's the crazy high ambient temperature (35+C) but the bike definitely seems to run hot. I cruise at exactly 96km/h with absolutely no vibration, was thinking about going down a tooth or two when I swap my drive chain. I did look at the wider gear set, cost is a little prohibitive but if I ever lose a gear I'll consider it for sure. This bike was a mint "barn find". Bone stock with all the stickers and even the saddle bag. Just not sure about the service history. Got it for 2.5$ which to me is really cheap. I might honestly pick up a spare motor from a crashed bike if I get a good deal and fix it up as a backup, since the bike my main means of transportation. It's nice here, mainly just hot this time a year. You can find really nice beaches almost everywhere and the nightlife is good in every city. The islands are also nice, mykonos for parties and santorini for the view. Inland there's the pozar bath and meteora if you end up in the north. Haven't really explored Greece myself so I'm sure you'll find cooler places. There is mountains everywhere so you'll stumble across some twisties if you veer of the main highway. Hope you have a great time here!
@@machupikachu1085 I've been to Corinth once, many years ago. It's nice for a day or two. Crete is an adventure, haven't been there but lots of my friends visit. People are nice there and will probably offer a lot of drinks.
Great editing, great commentary and great footage. All on the greatest bike ever made. Your videos rock dude. I have a '19 SM that I set up for trail riding/ADV and it's super cool to see how others set up their bikes. Looking forward to the next video! Props for representing Canada as well!
Awwwhh dude I had my second of fame there on your video! Heheh Nice work dude! Really love the drz, both good taste on editing and bike! Keep it going🤘
One thing else id recommend is the zeta rubber killers. They tighten up the front end and give you alot more turn in response, I think they're like $20 us. Also Socal supermoto also makes a video on how to set up the suspension on these, which is like cranking the front dampers all the way down or 1 click off, something like that. It makes big difference with turn in response and just feels alot more comfy. I'd recommend trying that too if you like to get the most out of what you got
i have a DRZ and i bought it used from a guy who solely used it as a wheely machine. It has a yeshimura exhaust, 3x3, FCR39, Stage 2 cams, 440 big bore and is geared very short. And i must say that i hate the short gearing but mostly the stage 2 cams. They do create some more torque at higher rpm but at low rpm the bike wants to stall even when just cruising. Am thinking replacing them with the originals. All the other mods i really do like. The videos are insane btw!!! immediatly subscribed! can't wait for more DRZ content!!!
Super interesting comment dude, I keep looking at the FCR39 and big bore as kind of a winter project. Pretty soon I won’t be able to ride on the streets and will have plenty of time to tear apart the motor
10/10 video man! If you get into stunting it you’ll want the oil breather mod. Involves rerouting the breather hoses up around the frame and not back into the airbox. Air going into the carb is way cleaner and if you’re doing long wheelies no more oil routing into the airbox
It’s so much fun man once things start to click! A few buddies and I started getting into it awhile back great time learning new stuff and how to master control of the bike. Cool seeing some ontario bike content on here!! I’m from sw Ontario
@@ReflectSM The carb has better throttle response for sure. I have early "E" cams, better top end. An open exhaust, carb and cams together, do increase power.
Not gonna lie, your editing is freakin’ great and I’m glad to have found this channel. It’s 100% convincing me to get a dual sport, currently thinking about a CRF300L rally or a KLX 300SM.
Just finished watching the first video too, your editing is out of this world amazing along with the production quality! This channel is gonna see some wild growth. Also what VHS camera are you using for some of the cinematic shots or are you just heavily filtering the footage?
what's up bro. hope your channel grows. new sub. may get a drz in spring. l like the t7, the honda 450. i don't know may not get a new bike again. last was fz1000 i may go with the Z900. so many choices.
Subscribe after watching first video..been on dirt forever 51 years old now ugh .everyone sold there dirt bikes so looking do to a supermoto. Love how you have ur bike set up…just an idea what about oll the gear you use and such. I can tell your channel will do good 👍
I use Hero 11 black and the mic is just an old Amazon wired lav mic I had lying around - probably gonna upgrade that soon. I’ll do a full video going over my motovlog setup soon
@@kiefer8083 Thanks dude that’s a huge compliment. I haven’t had any issues with them. I torque them evenly and check them every once in a while, but I’ve never had to tighten them
I'm running pirelli scorpion trail definitely last great handling. You should really check out a quick throttle. The bike opens up way quicker and you don't need two handfuls of throttle to do it.
Great video man. I would like to recommend you get some new gloves though, you really don’t want to damage the digits in a low side. Decent gloves are cheap insurance. Love the paint, looks fantastic by the way!
So glad I found your channel! I'm currently working on getting my drivers license back in new country, and I was thinking I'd switch to supermoto after that. My last bike was VFR1200X. Could you please describe main DRZ400SM differences, if you also moved from another class?
I’ve thought about changing sprocket size - I’m leaning more towards setting this bike up for wheelies in the future as I commute with it less and less
Ah, almost forgot, this is for all the DRZ riders. May I suggest (especially if it's worn out) a Trail Tech Vapor digital instrument unit? My OEM digital cluster is not functioning properly and a TT Vapor unit (IIRC about $170) is what I will be getting. Those have a tachometer as well.
My Mutants are cupping in the front after 6000 km - no more dual compound tires for me. I've been on the fence between the Q5 and the Conti SM, and now I'm tempted to try the Conti's first.
Wow, just thought about selling my DRZ but after this vid I just want to ride it. One question, I got a 2006 DRZ with the old 22mm bars, is the one you have on your DRZ the stock Renthal fatbar? I thought about ordering this one too
@@XxZHODxX Yeah it’s the stock bar. I haven’t compared them to anything else so I can’t really suggest the best bar to get, but this one works fine for me 🤷🏻♂️
Your clutch cable wear issue wouldn't be so bad if you didn't use it so much. Try blipping the throttle and shifting without using the clutch. The tranny is synchronized. It'll shift just fine without pulling the clutch lever every time. I've got a 1970 Kawasaki G3TR and only use the clutch for stopping and starting in first gear.
Follow me on IG for everything that doesn't end up here! instagram.com/rflct.sm
Hey bud. An update on that 16/39 gearing: I am getting a consistent 60mpg when riding at 100km/h with a stock pipe and jetting. It's pretty sweet!
This guy comes out of nowhere and starts dropping some of the best edited motorcycle videos on the internet. I’m so glad I subscribed. This is sick

Subscribe after watching first video..been on dirt forever 51 years old now ugh .everyone sold there dirt bikes so looking do to a supermoto. Love how you have ur bike set up…just an idea what about oll the gear you use and such. I can tell your channel will do good 👍
Great Video, just like the first one! One question, what cam and mic are you using on/in your helmet?
I use Hero 11 black and the mic is just an old Amazon wired lav mic I had lying around - probably gonna upgrade that soon. I’ll do a full video going over my motovlog setup soon
this my new favorite channel. had any issues with your rox risers slipping at all? if so how’d you fix it
@@kiefer8083 Thanks dude that’s a huge compliment. I haven’t had any issues with them. I torque them evenly and check them every once in a while, but I’ve never had to tighten them
I'm running pirelli scorpion trail definitely last great handling. You should really check out a quick throttle. The bike opens up way quicker and you don't need two handfuls of throttle to do it.
Nice content bro, do you ride in the winter? if you do, how do you manage it?
I don’t. It’s brutally cold here, always snowing, with salted roads
Great video man. I would like to recommend you get some new gloves though, you really don’t want to damage the digits in a low side. Decent gloves are cheap insurance. Love the paint, looks fantastic by the way!
Haha yeah man I’m too lazy with it. Gotta do some shopping. Any recommendations?
So glad I found your channel! I'm currently working on getting my drivers license back in new country, and I was thinking I'd switch to supermoto after that. My last bike was VFR1200X. Could you please describe main DRZ400SM differences, if you also moved from another class?
I hadn’t moved from another class of bike, so I can’t really speak to the differences
keep up the good video quality man nice work 💪 i have a DRZ400 too S model
Thanks! Ride safe man 🔥
@@ReflectSM you said you were close to Ottawa ? Me too im from the Quebec side
Me patiently waiting for the next video
More motovlogs plz!!
I’ll keep them coming as fast as I can haha
Only your second video but dam is it well put together! Have you thought about changing gearing or putting the ACT gears in the transmission?
I’ve thought about changing sprocket size - I’m leaning more towards setting this bike up for wheelies in the future as I commute with it less and less
BROTHERRR🦅🦅🗣️🗣️
WE LOVE BIKER COSPLAY‼️‼️🗣️🗣️‼️🔥🔥
sick bike. look into steel brake lines, and zeta rubber killers for some crispy handling
A few guys have mentioned the brake lines. Definitely putting them on my shopping list
Love your drz videos
Thanks man 🙏
Ah, almost forgot, this is for all the DRZ riders. May I suggest (especially if it's worn out) a Trail Tech Vapor digital instrument unit? My OEM digital cluster is not functioning properly and a TT Vapor unit (IIRC about $170) is what I will be getting. Those have a tachometer as well.
My Mutants are cupping in the front after 6000 km - no more dual compound tires for me. I've been on the fence between the Q5 and the Conti SM, and now I'm tempted to try the Conti's first.
Good stuff.
into riffs reminds me of Ritual Black Veil Brides band😅
And here i am 2nd video wanting to go from my papio to a drz
Definitely sounds like an upgrade 😂
I heavily suggest you to get braided steel brake lines. I got a modded DRZ and did this mod way to late for it's benefits.
@@shootix sounds interesting - what was your experience with the benefits?
❤❤❤❤❤❤
beruuutherrr
I just picked up my first drz, definitely copying a few of these mods
Sick! DM me on ig if you got any questions dude
What about the wheels? Are they painted too?
Sup cool video!
Thanks!
Wow, just thought about selling my DRZ but after this vid I just want to ride it. One question, I got a 2006 DRZ with the old 22mm bars, is the one you have on your DRZ the stock Renthal fatbar? I thought about ordering this one too
@@XxZHODxX Yeah it’s the stock bar. I haven’t compared them to anything else so I can’t really suggest the best bar to get, but this one works fine for me 🤷🏻♂️
Your clutch cable wear issue wouldn't be so bad if you didn't use it so much. Try blipping the throttle and shifting without using the clutch. The tranny is synchronized. It'll shift just fine without pulling the clutch lever every time. I've got a 1970 Kawasaki G3TR and only use the clutch for stopping and starting in first gear.
