i love my drz. i got it because i wanted a bike and it gets amazing gas mileage and is cheap on insurance for me only being 18. its a 2.2 gallon fuel tank, well 2.6 with reserve and i usually get 120 miles on a tank before i have to hit reserve and make my way to the gas station. plus i think it has the cool factor along with a kinda rare factor that you dont get with a crotch rocket, since everyone around here has either a harley or a sport bike. oh, and yeah the wheels are expensive. i saw a set a while back off a stock drz sm going for around $900
