@rippinrogers hi If I remember correctly it had been welded on by a previous owner.

Hi No sorry I wouldn't know. Mine was a d7 model so you may be able to Google it.

@@simonwyatt6453 cheers

I sold it a couple of years ago

I'm sure you're kawasaki klr650 doesn't walk around the garden on its centre stand when you rev it, this bike did! Wouldn't personally have another, the vibes are a real problem, and reliability questionable.

@@simonwyatt6453 I had a choice between this KTM 640 and the KLR650, I was advised by a friend who owned one to think twice because of lack of parts, so took the KLR650, but the KLR is a bit of a slouch, doesn't offer much, but is reliable, I'm in the process of selling it, getting a bit sick of old model bikes

I wouldn't personally advise buying one, I found it to be unreliable, yes parts are very scarce. I would stick with you're klr650, the ktm was very powerful but it won't last like you're klr will. Good luck with you're search if you decide to sell it.

Congrats You'll love the induction noise from the ram Air.

Hi I am about 5'10" and never had a problem with touching the ground on this bike.

@@simonwyatt6453 thanks.The point is I'm a little bit more tall so I'm afraid if the bike will be too small for me

@@МартинМилев-ю2х Hi Maybe a ktm 640 Adventure or a yamaha tt600r would suit you more. The tt600r is a great bike and very tall.

Hi Maarten It was fitted when I bought it, it had a name but I don't remember. You can find some here, hope this helps www.motorcyclescreens.eu/motorcycle-windshields-for-suzuki/284-suzuki-dr-650-rse-1991-1995-touring-windscreen-windshield

@@simonwyatt6453 Thanks! I ordered one, let's see if it will fit.

@maartenjanssen4302 it will fit OK as the fixing holes align with you're old screen.

Thanks matt

Thankyou Eric It was restored some years ago by the previous owner, it ran well and still had the original piston and rings after 15000 miles. A lovely bike to own and ride.

Me to

Thanks Yes it's a great bike and goes like stink

Yes I know what you mean, very easy to break, agree they look ugly on most bikes, but that's the law here so we have to stick to it.

@@simonwyatt6453 I know man law is law.I had Ktm sc 620 and lc4 640sm,now at end of year I’m thinking about buying something like this,Adventure!

Hi They are a great bike, also I would recommend looking for a post 1996 dr650, they are not as good as the ktm 640 for power or suspension but they are so reliable, they also can be molded with suspension and engine.

I really don't know Kurt, here in uk they are rare but not widely known of, I would advise to look at the yamaha IT website forum.

Seen a non running one sell for 800 with a messed up seat I’m sure a nice one would sell for much more

Hi Please elaborate as I don't understand

Thanks, they are a great bike.

Congratulations, they are certainly entertaining to ride, enjoy🖐

I didn't have any problems with the tail section but can appreciate what you are saying, I owned a 2003 honda blackbird before the zzr1100 and personally preferred the fuel injected bird. I'm done with sports bikes now so I wouldn't buy any again but enjoyed owning both.

@@simonwyatt6453 i honestly love all the ZX11s, i just had to gripe about that one silly chunk of plastic. it's a pain finding stuff anymore, but i can't complain too hard when i consider how many bikes Kawi has made between then and now. sorry to hear you're off sportbikes; i just got started a few years ago as my midlife crisis.. lol

Hi It was a charging flylead under seat. USB port was near instruments. I sold it as it was temperamental to start and carb leaked intermittently despite rebuild. It was a great bike but they do vibrate a fair bit. Gone back to a suzuki dr650se now, more reliable and much less to go wrong with it. Hope it helps.

I sold mine a couple of years ago as it wasn't used much. Lovely bike though, ram Air sounds nice above 5k revs. Too fast for me though, that's why I no longer have it!

@@simonwyatt6453 I find it incredibly fast too, a bit nuts really. Mine is more of a garage queen as I like to tinker.

@@gdfggggg I have a C 3 I've owned it for 30 years brilliant bike all black black frame, just shy of 70k , I totally love it , I've had many other over the years including Hybusa ZZR1400 , Ducati and a few vintage Bikes but always kept hold of my C3 , , your D looks in totally Beautiful condition, nice to see it.

Thanks, I sold it a couple of weeks ago

Hi As far as I know its perfectly normal. It's a high performance single with a few miles on it.

Yep. They have to sound like a bucket of bolts in a tin can

Hi Yes you are correct, its been removed by the previous owner. Probably for weight purposes.

Hi Thank you for you comment

Hi Jos Thanks for comments, that's interesting to know about waterpump, clutch and valve rocker bearings. Mine has done 37500 miles but not by me as I recently bought it and not ridden it much, and not at all off-road. It's very lively compared to my previous suzuki dr650 and yamaha xt600e, in a different league really. I found the vibes bad at first but as the engine warms up they seem to be less noticeable, 60mph is bad, 75mph is good. Balance for a tell bike is exceptional. As far as maintenance I've done the exhaust valve gasket, changed oil and filters which isn't too difficult really. I'm looking forward to getting some miles on it on and off road, its seems to be one of the few bikes that are built to go anywhere. Enjoy mate😀
