Congrats on 1k, and a job well done on this project! I’m with you and thought the white version looked killer! As you mentioned, a Vapor unit would be an awesome addition, and fit quite nicely. 👍🏼👍🏼 Cheers!
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen someone do to a DR! I wish I had the tools to make my own. Great job Dino! Your channel really is great, keep up the great work 👍🙂
Good job! Congrats on making 1K ! The white didn't look too bad either but ultimately the black looks best and the applied edging on the metal finishes It Off
@@DinosTinkerShed might inspire me to do something with my own doctor,we don’t have a winter that enforces long periods of inside activity but that’s just an excuse
I use the KISS program, use a single battery tender pigtail, with a15 ampere fuse, live 24x7 and use adapters to run heated jacket, gloves, air pump, phone charging etc, from a single plug. I use the Suzuki 2 wire plug for the gps. It embodies the concept of the DR650, Keep it simple.
This is a really cool project. If you still have your carboard templates, you should digitize them and make plans. I'd give a couple of bucks to save some CAD (cardboard aided design) time for myself.
Thank you for the comment and question. I am actually working on getting these into CAD to share. I am close to completion but it seems to always take a back seat to other things. I am sorry for the delay, and will try to get it done. Dino
So glad I came across this chanel. Quality videos with Quality information keep up the good work man. Just got a dr and the videos are the best out there. Going to do the lowered pegs and bar kit from procycle soon id love to see a dino video on it.
Congratulations on the new DR! I am glad you enjoy the videos. I do plan on upgrading my bars at some point but I'm not sure when but I will capture that into a video for sure when I do. The bike already had the lower foot peg kit on it when I bought it but at some point I may upgrade teh foot pegs so I could cover that at that time. Thank you for the comment Dino
Thanks for your very elementary explanation of how to hook up your relay to power you higher load outlets. But I was wondering what do you plan to use these outlets for ? Another good video that I always learn something from.
Nice job. When you report back let us know if the handling feels different having the weight of the headlight further out there - I’m curious if the steering might feel “floppy”. Congrats on 1K subscribers
I will do a full review. I am a bit worried not so much about the weight but of the length and how th the wind will have additional leverage on the bars. Thank you for the comment. Dino
Dino, any updates yet? I'm just about to pull the trigger on an ARX tower, but I like neatly your dash blends in with the original lines of the bike. Curious to hear if you've had a chance to ride and test the design for changes to airflow (both rider effect and steering)
Really nice mod. Maybe you can share the schematis, so anyone could clone it? P.S. just got my first bike and it's a '97 DR650SE. Found your channel and subscribed because your videos on DR650 are interesting and great for DIY works in a garage on the bike.
Did you happen to weigh the dash and all the components? I'm wondering if extending the weight of the dash, fairing, and windshield further out from the steering axis changes the feel of the steering.
I did not but in retrospect it would have been good information to have. I have not noted any I'll handling on the roads and trail I ride but more aggressive riders may have other experiences. Thank you for the question. Dino
Hey mate awesome video. Love the end result. I'll be making one for mine bike before the next trip. What windshield do you use? Looks alot better than mine.
I love this Dino! I just got my “dash” situated on my new to me dr650 by putting in a usb charger and ram mount for my phone! Do you like moto camping? I’m sure we’d all love to see your adventures once the weather warms up
Thank you for the feedback, I have never actually been moto camping but Karl has allot. My wife and I used to backpack camp a fair bit and still camp out at campsites occasionally.

Hi Frank, I am still working through the 3d printed model on this, I do apologize it's taking so long. I don't have a 3d printer so a friend prints it for me and it seems to take a while. I have a revised piece in the works now but I have to wait to see how things fit.
Thanks Dino. No worries. I’m sure we can make something that will work from your videos. I was just hoping for some basic measurements to start. Thanks for sharing this one! Great build. Cheers, Frank
Wonderful idea. Thanks for the creativity and know-how.
Thanks for watching! glad you likes the project
Dino
Very good worthwhile project. Very neat and blends in with the faring. Thanks Dino.
Glad you like it Mal, I cant wait to test it out. weather is improving, now I just need to get the DR back in one piece.
Dino
Nice work on setting up that 650. Thanks for hosting
Any time!
Cheers, for both the clips, I actually went out and bought a nutsert tool because I had no idea they existed. Thank you!!
Glad I could help! and thank you for the comment
Dino
Very enjoyable. Can’t wait to see the next project. I have some ideas for electrical upgrades I am going to do on my DR650. Cheers Dino!
Thank you for the comment
What an interesting bunch of fellars

Awesome job Dino. Saved a lot of money and made it exactly how YOU wanted it.
Thank you, glad you liked it.

Thanks, I could not have gotten to 1000 without everyone's support. I thought the white looked good as well but I agree the black is very nice.
Dino
Congrats on hitting 1k! The work and info you put into your videos is much appreciated! Dash is great, you're a talented dude, Dino
Thanks a lot, I appreciate that. glad you like the content.

Glad you enjoyed the content, I use one outlet for my GPS and the other to power things like an air compressor.
Thank you again

Thanks for sharing youre awesome
You could make a video about the necessary minimum tools to get started for these kind of projects.
Great idea I'll add it to the production list, thank you.

Thanks for the comment, I have thought about making plans available for the dash but not sure how much interest there would be.
Dino
@@DinosTinkerShed I'd be interested--although I am thinking the same concept mounted to the frame head instead of the triple might be better handling.
Pretty cool project. How heavy is it?
I did not weigh it but less than a pound for sure
Did you happen to weigh the dash and all the components? I'm wondering if extending the weight of the dash, fairing, and windshield further out from the steering axis changes the feel of the steering.
I did not but in retrospect it would have been good information to have. I have not noted any I'll handling on the roads and trail I ride but more aggressive riders may have other experiences. Thank you for the question.

lol it’s on a dr650 not a r1
good job
Excellent video! Well done sir. Are you going to take any summer trips on it?
Yes hopefully, Karl and I have a few plans.
Dino
Hey mate awesome video. Love the end result. I'll be making one for mine bike before the next trip. What windshield do you use? Looks alot better than mine.
Thanks, I'm glad you like it
The wind screen is off a BMW 650 Dakar. It came with the bike when I bought it but I made all the mounts for it
I love this Dino! I just got my “dash” situated on my new to me dr650 by putting in a usb charger and ram mount for my phone! Do you like moto camping? I’m sure we’d all love to see your adventures once the weather warms up
Thank you for the feedback, I have never actually been moto camping but Karl has allot. My wife and I used to backpack camp a fair bit and still camp out at campsites occasionally.
Interestingly enough, Karl want to take a few trips this year and camp so I should be able to capture some shenanigan's.
Thanks again
Dino
Lekker 🦕 💯
Lol glad you enjoyed it. Thank you
Dino
Hey Dino, how do we go about buying a set of plans for this dash build from you? Cheers, Frank
Hi Frank, I am still working through the 3d printed model on this, I do apologize it's taking so long. I don't have a 3d printer so a friend prints it for me and it seems to take a while. I have a revised piece in the works now but I have to wait to see how things fit.

I'll sub I got to do this.
Mate...can we all get some size so we can all make one
Over the winter I am hoping to take it off and make some scale plans, just have not had time yet. I'll keep e anyone posted.
Dino
@@DinosTinkerShed many thanks....l would rather make my own....along with a lot of other dr 650 riders
Hi Dino, did you ever get around to digitising the plans?
Will you make me one
Why do Americans not pronounce the L in solder ?
Not sure, most likely a dialect thing, next time I'm in the states Ill ask someone LOL. Thanks for the comment.
