DRZ with 28 litre tank - how does it perform?
I'm considering a DRZ 400 for a trip around Africa. I am particularly interested in this bike because of the 28 litre safari fuel tank that is available - and because i am told the bike is very easy to handle.
My question is how practical is the bike when equipped with what sounds like a whopping 28 litre tank?
- How much does a tank this big affect the performance of the bike? Is it considerably slower when full?
- How is the weight distributed? Does it give the front forks a hard time?
- Is there a noticeable difference in handling?
- how many miles can you get off a full tank when travelling say a consistent 65mph
Apologies for the somewhat vague questions - i hope you catch my drift!
If you could help with any of the above or pass on any of your experiences that would be great!
Many thanks!
