My wife's uncle used to have a DRZ and used it offroad mostly. I was trying to explain to him the concept of the supermoto and when I mentioned the words "light weight" he asked me how I could put those in the same sentance as a DRZ. I had to explain that compared to most road bikes it's VERY lightweight...just not compared to most dirt bikes.  It's all in the context I guess.

A Kourier has to establish space on the pavement. Predictable law-abiding behaviour lulls drivers. They mentally assign you to a little box in the lane, assume you will stay there, can't handle it when you leave that little box.
Y.T. is not fond of boxes. Y.T. establishes her space on the pavement by zagging mightily from lane to lane, establishing a precedent of scary randomness. Keeps people on their toes, makes them react to her, instead of the other way round.

First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me and there was no one left

I posted the above link without actually watching it,was on mobile broadband at the time and took a bum steer off another site thread.
I have seen it and it is borderline idiots with no regard for others or the public's perception of motorcyclists,mods can delete this and the above if they like.
