Following! Just got one myself

[@LosVRC]

I live in Mexico and have a DR350 and a YZ250f....i love the DR. Its my main goto bike for all trails. I get offers all the time for it. Lol

[@thejacksonbentley]

@@LosVRC I want your YZ! 🤣 love those bikes

[@autismion]

These are cool, better than some new heavy bike offroad. Hell I wish someone still made a bike that simple, light with just enough power for the road.

[@Lopezaaronn]

Looks fun! Excited to see what goes on with the project!

[@thejacksonbentley]

Stick around and you will soon! Tell ya friends too

I just picked up my DR350 2 days ago! Owner had it restored and then let it sit for almost 3 years. Need less to say, tank rust is my first obstacle.. I’m planning basically the same for mine as you are for yours-the only difference is my plans are for the desert and getting into more remote spots to metal detect!

[@thejacksonbentley]

@@randystreasureadventures you lucky bastard I wish I was near a desert

[@randystreasureadventures]

@@thejacksonbentley lol! I'm actually not either. I live in Texas but I go to Arizona frequently to prospect in the mountains. I've been bumming off of my buddies who have extra ATVs, but situations change and now I find myself needing something to ride when I'm out there. I don't think I would ride it all the way out there, probably just carry it in my truck, but I definitely want to set the bike up to carry as much gear as possible for both prospecting and whatever trips I might cook up here at home. And of course make it look cool too, lol!

@@randystreasureadventures make some KZbin videos on it I’ll watch them. Keep in touch

I used to have a Dr350..excellent bikes, 6 speed box, Air cooled...much better in my opinion the a DRZ... You will Love this bike once you have it dialed in.....

[@thejacksonbentley]

@@SNxr400r the drz was 2 stroke right?

[@SNxr400r]

@@thejacksonbentley The DRz replaced the dr350...it is a 4 stroke bike...but water cooled and a 5 speed ger box....also has a taller seat height...In my opinion the dr350 is a better bike....

[@thejacksonbentley]

@@SNxr400r interesting, i never knew that. My 5’6 ass couldn’t handle any taller of seat height anyway

[@proadymx1]

I used to have one. I put too much money into it before I got a more modern bike that does a lot better. 441 big bore, 36mm Mikuni carb and white bros pipe, rebuilt shock and forks. Ran really strong but still outdated.

[@thejacksonbentley]

@@proadymx1 the modern bike are so nice. I’d really like to get a yz at some point…

[@Mereshot101]

Good luck man I am rebuilding the motor on my XT600 almost zero experience building motors but excited to get it done. Last year I put progressive springs in the fork, did seals, and some fresh oil. Not sure they ever changed it!

[@thejacksonbentley]

Good for you! I’m going to start tearing into mine tomorrow. My only hold-up has been trying to find a good way to record everything
