#dr650
It's been many years since I had my DR650, so unfortunately no. There's likely an owners group online somewhere with more info than you'll ever need (or maybe want 😬).

I'm Kathryn, an illustrator specializing in anthro characters as well as vehicles and props, but I do a little of everything, and I'd love to do more bespoke commissioned work!

I turned my third one into a supermoto. One of the best bikes I’ve ever owned. ProCycle has just about anything you might want. Congrats!

She’s here! If anyone has any suggestions for mods or tips for the DR650 I’d love to hear them. #motosky

I need a two up short to mid range enduro, should I buy this DR650? It has 12k miles, hasn’t been fired in at least 3 years. Tank is clean, I think it needs tires, carb clean, fork seals, battery and fluid changes. #motosky
Paid my friend Dan a visit today, always fun chatting with him looking at his cool old stuff. #bikesky #weirdcarbs

I owned a 79 Honda Wing with full Vetter fairing & luggage package

My 07 Honda VTX 1300 is the heaviest bike I have ever owned, coming in at 830#

My VTX 1300 weighs as much as my 2000 HD sportster & 2017 Suzuki DR650 dual sport combined

I don't get the appeal of a super sport bike on the street. I want either a dual sport (dr650) or a naked bike (probably a duke 390 or a svartpilen 401). If I wanted big power I would be going for something like a super duke or ducati monster not a liter bike.

my first bike has been a DR650 for the full analogue experience but you would love that bike too i think - if you like gentle and simple bikes that are very capable.

今日は外せないヤボ用が入って、仕事を休んで出向くことに。バスや鉄道ではたどり着けないのでCT125で。DR650は最近の雨で乗れていないところに、気温の低下でバッテリーのテンションが下がっていたらしくエンジンかからず。

雨の中を行くことになるので久々に今回はアストロ箱を使用。CT125にあつらえたかのようなサイズや水密構造とかなかなか便利な箱なのだけど、経年劣化しやすかったり、バックルが壊れやすい(実は写真のも片方が壊れてる)のでなかなか常用し辛いのがつらいところ。

I do wish this was a real model kit I could buy.

Had a bozz on my neighbour's 25 year old DR650 yesterday. It had no acceleration and no brakes but was a hoot in the back lanes. I'm sure my Mobylette when I was a teenager was more responsive than this thing. My bog standard GSE 500 in '91 certainly was.

Finally got fed up with the Shinko 244 (aka Golden Boy) and replaced it with a Pirelli MT21. The former is a 50/50 tire and I've been doing more technical trails that I expected so I wanted the more aggressive tread of the MT21.

My short legs made it difficult to sit on the bike and turn, given the concaved nature of this terrain. Fortunately, I remembered the trick of lifting the bike onto its kickstand and pivoting it around. It worked beautifully! #dr650 #motorcycle #moto #advrider #motosky

Spent most of the day doing deadlifts. In between sets I rode the motorcycle.

Now that I'm mostly recovered from the ride, I'm having fond memories of single track riding on BC's southwest coast.

They need an affordable pan america lite. Harley version of the klr650/dr650. Something reliable, good for 400 mile days. Something the rider can do minor to moderate repairs to. Something that will run for 1-200k miles, and can be picked up when you fall over.

Video from yesterday's ride on Vedder Mountain. It was a VERY hot day. The heat combined with the effort involved in manhandling the Mighty Bushpig through the tight single track was exhausting. My riding became sloppy very quickly.
