One of the main reasons I love these TJs

We have some street guys just getting into it now, they are having fun but surprised how physical it is. Hard to kill a DRZ.

That bike is a tank for sure, I’m NEVER worried about killing the bike. I’m worried it’s gonna kill me due to my lack of off road seat time.

The first time out, I was going up a narrow trail that had been logged a few years earlier. Hit a root and unexpectedly caught air. Both feet came off the pegs and the clutch hand came off the bar.

So it was my dumb self whiskey throttled with my ass being the only thing still holding onto the bike! Luckily my ass was clenched so tight I coulda made pearls with the sand! Haha. Took a bit of a break from off road after that for awhile :)

Man I’ve hit half the trees in Tennessee. It takes some seat time to get where you aren’t half killing yourself.

I used to come home from rides all beat up. My wife was like “are you really having fun?”

“yep. Gonna ride the wheels off of it “
