    I regret selling my dr650. I bought a 2013 650 husky/bmw rotax model. Im having fuel injection/spark problems and cant do shim valve checks. I recently road the dr I sold and it will smoke the husky. Im doing back to the dr asap, but going to put the $$ into the suspension upgrades. nice vid, dino and thanks for setting us straight

      That Dr 650 has simply stood the test of time from a marketing standpoint and Suzuki knocked the ball clear out of the park when they introduced it and still selling it today .

    I'll spell it out. You don't have to sell a kidney to buy 1. Parts are cheap and accessible . They are easy to fix and don't have all that tech rubbish that breaks down. Which leads me to the last , very dependable.

    Mines a 2006 and I can’t find a replacement bike other than just buying a brand new DR650 and doing all of the same suspension and gas tank modifications to it.
    KTM has a better bike with the 690 but why invite the reliability problems I keep asking myself.

    Hey Dino, love your videos ! Question for you: My DR650 has mild steering wobble at 10 to 25 mph (back and forth) but smooths out at higher speeds, what do you think is causing this problem?

    • @DinosTinkerShed
      @DinosTinkerShed  หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@denny5564 hey, glad you like the content. I'm not an expert but I know from personal experience that tires and tire wear can lead to some funny slow speed handling, check tire pressure often. Loose or worn headset bearings could also be a factor and you might want to feel them for play as you have someone rock the bike gently forward and back with the front brake locked. Wheel and fork alignment should also be checked loosen the front wheel and with it on the ground have some one help you by holding the bike upright while you re tighten the axle to spec.
      These are a few areas I would check first.
      Again thanks for the question
