My beloved 2002 DRZ400S burned up in my garage fire. Haven't got another one yet but had just to name a few mods:

RaceTech suspension, 4mm Stroker Crank, Athena Big Bore Kit, FCR39, Hot Cams, Full FMF Exhaust. Bike ran tooth & nail with my 500EXC, which I also lost to fire.

Wanted a change so got a brand new 2020 DR-650. Like to get atleast another bike when finances permit...

Those mods are pretty typical of a bunch of riders here with some going much farther.

Just passed 1 month with my new 2022 DR-Z400S, so far:

1. IMS Super Stock Footpegs

2. 12oclockLabs Tail Tidy and their Fixed Rate Flasher

3. Zeta Handguards with integrated blinkers 

4. PAIR valve removal

5. Kick Stand Safety switch bypassed

6. OEM mirrors removed, single handlebar drop down mirror from SRmoto.

A few other very minor things but starting to look better.

I found removing the clutch safety switch to be helpful as well. 

?Yes, on my short list. Ordered some electrical terminals to do a tidy job because my 2022 does not have the barrel connectors like I see on YouTube videos. Want to get this done before ordering a RSC clutch lever.
