Funny update to this story. As some of you know, I sold the Qlink a few months ago and bought a Yamaha WR250x. The Yamaha is worth every penny, I freaking love that bike. But anyway...

Sorry, I'm a rural/suburban white boy... I went to school in the city, but try to avoid it when I can. I prefer the twisty mountain roads to the urban jungle. :lol:

Never heard of this Black Sundays thing. I'm pretty much right in the middle of Philly and Harrisburg. There are some pretty good roads not too far from me, I just don't have the time to explore them...

The DRZSM does have USD forks, but other than that it seems a bit dated. It is really nice to do engine tuning with the push of a button, rather than disassembling carbs to change jets...

I've been having some issues when the bike is cold with the engine missing or cutting out just off throttle. It goes away once the bike is warm.

Loud might be relative. The stock pipe on the Qlink couldn't be heard from 10 feet away. And I had the stock exhaust on my SV as well. The Q4 isn't ear splitting, but it is a nice deep grumble that...

As some of you know, I had a 2002 SV650S that was my baby, but I grew up on dirt bikes and from the moment I saw my first DRZ400SM in 2005 at a local dealer I was in love with supermoto. Last year I...

There is very little if any off road areas to ride. The cheapest WRX I've seen was $3500, which I might go see soon. Most are asking around $4500. I can pick up a DRZ...
