If you look at the WR250X specs, dry weight is listed as 280 (282 for CA models). DRZ dry weight is listed as 295 pounds. Curb weight is listed at 321 (as defined in a previous post). The dry weight specs. clearly put the DRZ at a hp/weight ratio advantage. The curb weight of the DRZ still puts it at a hp to weight advantage over the dry weight/hp of the WR250X. There is a 13~15 # weight difference before they are "ready to ride". Ya'll got your skirts all would up over two docile playbikes. :D I'll guarantee if the WR250X gang had DRZ's they would be argueing the other side. It's human nature. :thumbup:

I was riding the other evening. I didn't know you guys were wringing them out, or I would have went. I saw you guys go past Walmart, but I was off the bike, helmet, gloves, etc off, & drinking a Red Bull, or I would have caught up w/ youns. My mouth was dry from blowing past 3 Harleys in the S turn coming up the double lane on 50 toward Keyser. :D

More fodder for you guys to grumble over :thumbup::

The DRZ is dated and WRX time is coming, soon their will be tons of parts and mods that will increase the power and loosing the some what MPG - And making it a very fast bike, just think of what making it into a big bore would do?

I think yamaha are selling these things like hot cakes
