Euromot Suzuki DR200 Manual Query

Hi Hubbers,

Im shortly about to set off on my travels around south america in November!
Im looking to buy a Euromot 200 GXT which i know is a Chinese copy of the Suzuki DR200. Ive been told that Suzuki parts will fit the bike and its almost a 100% replica.

I have found online, for free, a manual for the Suzuki DR50 and the Suzuki DR350 (typical that i cant get the DR200 one). My Question is for general maintenance and repairs would these manuals be close enough to work with for the DR200/Euromot GXT???

My motorbike maintenance is limited. When i toured Vietnam on a russian minsk i found hitting it with a spanner did the job but thats a 1950's russian design for you!

Any advice or recommendations would be good!

Cheers Edd!

The guys over at MyChinaMoto have this instruction manual.

As it's in Portuguese you may want to upload it to Google Translate which does a pretty good job translating to English and Spanish.

I have a (rare) DR200 manual somewhere. I'd have to turn the house upside down to find it............Once upon a time, for a few short weeks, I had a NEW DR200....and then some light-fingered, thieving bast*** relieved me of it. What a great little bike. For us not-so-tall people (short-arses), the DR200 is the perfect green laner....small, light, torquey, easy to ride. I was so gutted when it got stolen.

Anyway, 25 quid for the manual (posted) and I'll turn the house upside down. I bought the manual new, and I don't recall ever opening it. I know I paid over the odds for it.
