OT- Anyone have a motard?

I'm not sure why, but the more I see the super motard bikes the more I want one. I was looking at the Suzuki DZR - SM...anybody have any experience with these things? Are they as fun to ride as the look?

I have one... pretty fun. Depends on your riding style and area if it is for you or not. What do you want to know that isn't documented.

Re: OT- Anyone have a motard?

I've got a KTM 640 SM . Unlike most people I class it as my No 1 bike. Bought it then discovered that the 1000RR was getting lonely and bored being stuck in the garage all alone so I sold the CBR. Bought the RC51 because it was the right price but if I was only allowed 1 bike it would be the motard all the way.
DRZ's are ok, but they're a bit underpowered. Fine if you're riding around tight city streets all the time but if you want to go out and find some nice abandoned twisty's in the countryside you'll be wanting more power. Best thing about them is they are hella reliable in Motard terms and easy on the maintenance.
