Cheers, mines about 155kg dry, then with a full 21 litres in the tanker its very heavy, but the unlimited power makes up for it 😎 maybe a bigger track next time.
yeah i love the sound, i was debating whether to get some massey ferguson or jcb stickers for it. :D As for parts, ive never struggled to much using ebay other than trying to get hold of fairings but other than that i loved my dr, its a bit heavy for offroad but its a great flavour and they are cheap to service. Just try to find one with lowish miles on :)
Nicely done! You can tell is slightly heavier 😀

That sound!
What year is your model? Any troubles with spare parts for it?
I'm about to get 1991 DR650 dakar, still have some fears

Thanks for the info! One more question : what’s year is your DR?
its a 1996 chassis with a 1992 kickstart motor
that's a good stuff! Any problems with mounting of that motor?
The motor mounts very easily. The only issue was having to find the cdi and coils from a 1992 model because the magnetos are all slightly different.
