yeh swapped it. But for a DRZ400 fancied something completely different to what i usually have, also i should be moving house soon and i wont be able to cycle to work so need a bike to commute on. I do miss the power and insanity of the rsv but im really enjoying the DRZ :inlove. But i did see the bike on gumtree the day after for £2800 !!! which is a bit optimistic tbh.
