Greetings all!

I'd lurked on TOB forever (or maybe 7-8 years), never posted till about the day everything went south over there. Glad to see such a great nomadic community thriving online!! Helmets off to the creators of the new site!

Anyway, picked up a new S4RS tricolore today..a nice step up from the dark 620 I've had for the past 6 years. Been riding about 6.5 years, started on that dark 620 which now has about 25,500 miles.. I also ride a DR-Z400SM for city/commuting mostly. I live in seattle..

Great site lets keep it rockin!

Greetings! Glad to have you here. I was bit of a lurker myself.

Quality over quantity is what I always say.

Welcome, glad you finally posted up and shared your beautiful new bike.

Two awesome choices!

I have a DRZ400s for communiting.

Welcome.

Aren't those lil' bikes something?! It is SO darn fun in the city!! Seems like fun like that should be illegal! ...but alas sometimes the fun being had has questionable legal legitmacy...    Definitely a different experience from the monster but I tend to prefer it for the city/commuting. For one I'm not wearing down my monster with the grind of a shortish inner city commute. My air cooled monster would just be done warming up by the end of my 25 minute which bothered me more than running the same commute on the DRZ. The light weight and super quick steering make the DRZ such a fun city bike, while the monster to me feels more at home on a nice twisty or a two lane highway...

       Welcome!

Hello, welcome to the group. Waiting to see that tri-color.

Any errands around town are now for the DRZ. It is a blast!
