Great video! Changing mine for the first time. Really appreciate the explanation while you work.

Fingers crossed for a front wheel removal tutorial! Really appreciate all your DR650 content

[@MOTODANS]

Great video as always Dan, good information and an excellent delivery, thanks again Dan Dino

Cheers Dino, Thanks for watching

Great work Dan. You made that look easy. I didn't realise my cush drive rubbers were as bad as they were and destroyed a new heavy duty x ring chain and sprockets in 5000 heavily laden km. Im guessing it was the hammering action. I'm hoping this info might help out others. New cush drive rubbers are relatively cheap compared to chain and sprocket replacement.

[@MOTODANS]

Thanks for watching, Wow you wouldn't think they would do that much damage something to keep a close eye on for sure!

[@volvogt21]

@@MOTODANS adjusting my chain before loading the bike didn't help. Rookie gs owner mistake. I know you know what I mean. Lol.

[@MOTODANS]

Ah yes 😂 Always better to go on the slack side for sure.

[@Coolbreeze72]

Right on man! Excellent video!

Hey Dan😊

[@vinegum8835]

I would add: wheel alignment. Same distance on both chain adjusters isn't necessary right settings on all bikes. Visually measure the wheel, sprocket and chain path to prevent wrong position. There are also tools to be bought for that purpose. Mostly for safety and comfort, but also to prevent rapid wear and tear. Just experienced that on my dr650rse.... 🙂

[@MOTODANS]

That's a good call. I need to invest in one of those tools.

[@theflyingkiwi4803]

Great video Dan - thanks! What model tyre is that you have on the rear wheel?

[@MOTODANS]

Thank you! It is a Motoz Desert H/T. Seems pretty good, quite noisy on the road, got around 5000kms on it. Swapping it for a D606 to compare shortly

[@backwoodsman1753]

I find that the adjustment notches on the snail cam adjusters are too widely spaced; causing the chain to be usually running either too tight or too loose; and only rarely at perfect tension.

[@MOTODANS]

Yes I do find that sometimes to, always go on the side of loose

[@jeffpotter7656]

Thx great vid.

[@rabidwookie606]

Did you say the clamshell adjusters were 4/3? Shouldn't they match?

[@Dapitchfork]

What you use for chain lube dan?

[@MOTODANS]

Some gear oil applied with an old toothbrush. Only put it on after washing the bike to prevent rust. Mostly my chain is dry

[@Dapitchfork]

@@MOTODANS cheers. I'm giving it a shot next time, I'm over the sticky maxima chain lube I used last time.

[@jorgefonseca9225]

Hi mate i would like to asking you about the power voltage when the engine it's running! i have a 86 DR600S with a manual starting 😊kik! i check a voltage when the engine running marks around 9.7 - 10.4 it's a normally? the battery are older but still keep power when i driving and the lights works 😊 anyway i apreciate your vedeo cheers from Norway 🇳🇴 👍

[@MOTODANS]

Unsure on your specific bike they are completely different to the later models. But any 12v system when running should be above 12.8v ideally 13.2-14.2 when revved

[@jorgefonseca9225]

@MOTO DANS hi mate 👋 this model looks like a 650😀 but not have alternator 🤔 probably the charging system are the same like on 50cc🤣 anyway the engine works great 👍 I need remove a left engine cover and find out what goes on 🤔👍 thanks for answering mate👍 this engine it's a really fucking good 😊👍 and looks fiable bike 🤔 no electronics stuffs 😀👌👍👍 cheers from Norway 👍

[@davidrivera1727]

When I tied my axle nut, the other side spins I need to put a wrench to keep it from spin. Is that normal?

[@MOTODANS]

Doesn't happen on mine, Wondering if the threads are damaged causing the nut to bind up?
