I'm very happy with my '07 DR. I started out wanting the DRZ and then the WR250R, both great bikes
but my legs are just too short for either when it comes time to stop and get off. Had my DR out in Big Bend, and
a few months later I went to Utah and did the White Rim trail counter clockwise. It was rough along the river in the sand but
the bike took a pounding and then climbed up the Shafer trail like it was no big deal. There are some known
problems with the bike, most of them have easy fixes. The neutral safety switch bolts needs safety wiring or Locktite
(red, yes I said
red.) The upper chain roller needs to be removed and the hole plugged
with an Allen head screw. Go to
DRRiders.com for an excellent source of info.
