I’d love to have the vintage XT 500 shown in the beginning.

I agree, he has skills and the suspension handles it very well. I wonder if it is stock?

It is starting to look like a very nice middle weight. It will be all about the suspension. It also has gold rims -so I know CJ is in!

Noob!
I watched this earlier this week and it had me thinking that maybe I'll replace the DRZ with a Tenere in a few years when the hit the used market. Maybe.

Wow, that's beautiful! Love the red and white. I've only seen the black one and the blue one. This red is way better!
Congrats on the new bike. Ride report, please!

Did it come with those handguards? Are they "real" handguards? (as in it has a metal in it? That'd be nice less things to farkle.

Seat: more comfy than it looks in pics, but does seem lacking if riding for longer periods of time. Time will tell... There's lots of other seat options in the works right now.
Hand guards: They are plastic; minimal. Might be good for a lower speed dump or 2.
Skid plate: See above (although metal)
OTD: ~$11.8k
I haven't taken in dirt or on many long rides yet. Loving the engine but still keeping revs low for now. I'll report back once I've logged about 1k miles.
