Hail and well met!
'Tis been quite a while since I posted here, but here goes!
The Toad is the happy owner of a 2001 DR650, and it is a very good bike indeed. My first choice was an Aprilia Pegaso (big tank!), but I settled on the DR and have no regrets (with one caveat).
I am having difficulty fitting my IMS fuel tank (4.9 gallons U.S.) due to the instructions saying that I should use the OEM petcock, and a nice lady from IMS saying ignore the instructions. Aaaaaaagh! I am (some what) patiently awaiting another e-mail from her.
Oh well. Other wise I like the bike. I will be installing a small "Spitfire 06" wind shield that I just picked up, along with some better hand guards. Next up will be a centre stand.
It is a great bike, and not just for the money. I reallllly like mine. A lot.
Your humble servant -
The Toad
