Bought this last Friday. It only has 100 miles on it. After I bought it I drove it to the gas station and topped off the tank. When I was driving it home it died 1 mile away from where I gassed it up. Called the guy I bought it from and he picked me and the bike up and took it to the shop and gave me a ride home. The shop said they emptied the gas tank and cleaned the carbs. It ran fine for the 20 minute drive home and then I topped off the tank again. Then the same drat thing happened and it died 1 mile from my house. This morning it runs just fine. I let it idle for 10 minutes, drove it about a half mile around my house and it runs just fine. Not sure what the hell is going on with it.

edit: Shop says they think I might be vaporlocking it up by topping it off. Told me to ride it today and see how it goes.

Just took it for a 2 hour ride and had no problems. Looks like the shop was right. I will have to be careful to not over fill it. Took it over a curb and found a few trails. Getting the drz is one of the best decisions I have ever made.

I have a drz400sm and Im having a hard time finding offroad areas that do not have No Tresspassing signs all over the place. There is a MX park really close to my house with all different kinds of tracks. Would the SM handle very well there or would it suck taking it to MX tracks? Gravel and dirt is a blast but sand and mud sucks with the street tires.
