Good for you Shorty, I had a DR350 25 yrs ago, dirt model, great bike. The DR 650 is on my should get one list.
LesP,I would like to hear more of the details of your DR650 (s?). White one has DRZ400SM forks I assume? 53hp/50ft-lbs is using the ProCycle 790cc kit?thanks in advance!
Pretty neat trick hiding an NSU inside that Suzuki , those Japanese are certainly innovative . Dusty
I broke down and bought a DR 650. It's 90 pounds lighter than the Bonneville I'm selling later today. But, the ergos on the Suzuki allow me to ride a little longer than the Bonnie... I'm gonna lower it down a couple inches, then ride it awhile to see if any further mods are needed. It's got an aftermarket seat. Bone stock otherwise. Power is no problem with the DR, it has torque out the wazoo. There is a healthy aftermarket for most anything you would want or need. I will probably end up putting street tires on it.
Well, I posted my DR on advrider for sale at $4200 and had a dozen people hit me up in under 2 hrs, sold it sight unseen at full asking price by the end of the day! SO i learned:1. People really love these things and my experience is not typical2. I should have asked for $4,500!
I told you so! I didn't want to insult you by lowballing you.

a guy emailed me at 7:45 am, said he had seen the add... he said he's give me $5k for it and he could be here in 3hrs to pick it up if I screwed over the guy who gave me a deposit... errr.... no, buddy I'm not going to do that lol
Shorty,Don't click on this link:https://procycle.us/index.php/model/suzuki/dr650You will be assimilated!
I lowered the suspension using the factory method. I have wider footpegs coming, ordering tires, and I'm gonna raise the handlebars one inch or so. I see that someone has removed the top of the airbox, so the carb has probably been modded already. The bike is a hoot. Pulls nice. I do notice some low amplitude vibration. I think it is way to heavy too do anything off road, but it is fine on dirt and gravel roads. It cruises nicely about 65mph where the XT250 is starting to gasp a little.
