If you want to greenlaning, buy an S or n E rather than an SM, you'll be limited by tyre choice.
There are better but they are great, i love mine. They are always getting nicked so the crims must rate them.
other than tyres what are the difference between the models then ?
S - Road biased. Fully road legal.
E - Enduro spec. 'Sort of' road legal but most 2nd hand ones will have been made fully legal. Bit more power and a bit lighter (and IIRC slightly better suspension?).
SM - As S but with 17" wheels. Not really suitable for laning.
I had the best of both worlds, an E spec DRZ and some cheap 17" wheels off ebay. A 30 min job to turn it from a green laner into a SM
