r/DRZ400

So I trimmed these rear number plates a bit and I think it looks pretty darn good now. What do you guys think? Still waiting on my new headlight 😎🤟🏻

2018 DRZ400SM, 5200 Mi

Went on a 120 Mile loop and stopped after 40miles to stretch legs, went to start back up and no luck and to bump start and made it to closest Oreilllys with them telling me my battery is shot. Bump started it again and went back home with flickering screen every 15 secs which never told me how fast I was going. Couldnt get power to come on with key on, Checked rectifier (still good), Bought new battery still no power so I thought to charge the new battery and finally got it after 6 hours to start.. IMO thinking stator is bad so ordered a new stator..

Went to my local dirt bike shop to have them swap stator and see whats going on to which they told me they couldn't duplicate the problem after riding it for 1hr and 45 mins... and told me stator and rectifier is good and so is battery so I decided to ride it about an hour in on highway and then had it happen again, went back home and turned off and tried to turn back on, NO POWER

Any wisdom from you knowledgeable folks?

After installing a Clarke tank, the original pre-bent fuel line was too short (I used it for a bit, but it seemed tenuous - see third pic). I replaced the line today. To avoid bad angles and any kink on the fuel line, I looped it forward, then back to the carb on the inside of the petcock.

Question: this super thick reinforced fuel line runs very close to the engine with this arrangement. Any concerns?

TIA

Can anybody tell me the flavor of Keihin this is? It is on an 05 DRZ-SM and has been sitting. I need to get the right rebuild kit for it so she can see the road again.

I was replacing my year brake pads, and these two metal tabs fell out when I removed the old ones. The new ones didn't come with replacements, and I can't figure out where they came from exactly.

Anyone know what they are from?

Bought a used 2001 DRZ400E that came with the radiator hoses routed like this, but I can't seem to find photos of other DRZs with the same routing. Is this normal, or was it a mod done by the previous owner?

Went to do a routine oil change on my 2000 drz-400. Everything was going well until I tried to put the oil drain in the crankcase back in, barely got a half turn before the metal just popped apart. Is this a job for jb weld or should I start looking for a new bike?

Just wondering if these will fit. I messaged the seller a week ago with no response

How’s it going guys. I let my bike sit for 6-7 months without planning too and left a small amount of fuel in the tank. I replaced the battery and planned on switching the oil immediately but took it for a 5-10 spin around my neighborhood and when I checked the oil when I got back I noticed my oil smelt like fuel. So I ended up doing a flush and oil change including the filter and figured I was okay. Road the bike again for about 10-15 minutes this time and everything was solid. A few days pass and I check the oil and noticed the oil smelt like gas again. I plan on cleaning the carb but would this require a rebuilt carb? Also I plan to see if it’s my petcock that’s the issue would I just disconnect the line to see if it leaks without the bike being on? Also could there be any damage from ridding in for no more than 30 minutes broken up between 3 separate sessions, one being completely fresh oil? It’s my first carbureted bike, thank you in advance.

Bought this off fb for a project ‘01

First things first I don't know much about drz aftermarket parts or a ton about drzs in general so sorry if these are dumb questions

I just recently bought an 07 DRZ400, it's pretty clean I think, 12k on the odometer(still not entirely sure if it's miles or hours I've heard both but maybe I'm just being dumb) and it came with some extra goodies like a rear storage bag/rack and he said it was 5-10 more teeth than normal so it supposedly has more torque. He didn't mention this but the gas tank looks a bit large, when I look up other drzs the gas tank is pretty flat and flush with the seat while mine comes up like a mountain just right under my handlebars, maybe someone knows what tank this is and how big it is? Super happy with my purchase regardless and I'm definitely not complaining if it is a bigger tank that just checks another thing off my list 😁

Found out it's a Clarke gas tank, after someone mentioned something about the gas cap i went and looked it says "Clarke USA"

Was searching for a front turn signal solution, used the led fork-wrap ones for now but they look bad / low quality. Finally caved and ordered some pro armors with flashers. Didn’t get the triple clamp mount as I’m already using that for my ignition on one side and I already have some bushings to fit the taper as I’ve seen / read they don’t clamp quite right on the stock bar. Went with black guard / blue shield / smoked signals. Hopefully they compliment the bike well.
