crosstrainingen... tractionerag.com The Suzuki DR650 is a wheelie beast but we just aren't quite sure why lol. So let's get on it it. Why is it the wheelie beast? I've owned a pile of different bikes and for some reason the old DR650 is the one that enjoyed itself with the front wheel in the air. Why? Buggered if I know. The wheelie beast. I've owned a pile of different bikes and for some reason the old DR650 is the one that enjoyed itself with the front wheel in the air. Why? Buggered if I know. It has barely changed since 1996. And the Suzuki DR650 comes highly restricted from the factory but will still pop the front wheel up everywhere even in the ridiculously high third gear. Derestrict the engine and it's lifting the front in four gear. Although that can get a bit nerve wracking as it means highway speed and beyond which could be nasty if the Suzuki DR650 flipped. Seen as an unfair advantage, the DR650 has been banned from all major motosports including motocross, moto GP and enduro. Are you ready to risk your life for the ultimate ride on the DR650 epic enduro beast? We still don't know the horsepower of the DR650 because it keeps breaking they dyno machine. Who created this absurdly powerful bike? It wasn't the usual Suzuki engineers according to Suzuki DR650 reviews.The ultimate Suzuki DR650 review. Tyre shredding acceleration. Chain snapping torque. Bowel loosening thrills. Long recognised as the best motorcycle ever built in Suzuki DR650 reviews, it has also faced extreme prejudice due to its phenomemal power output. The weird thing is at one point I owned a KTM 690 and it was much harder to wheelie. Sure, it put out close to double the horsepower but it felt harder to lift and keep on the balance point. Maybe it was just me, but I was extremely disappointed and of course went back to a Suzuki DR650 (not just for the wheelies of course). Designed back in the jurassic era, it's one of the few dinosaurs left, just read the Suzuki DR650 reviews. Air cooled. Five speed. Cable clutch. Designed back in the jurassic era, it's one of the few dinosaurs left. Air cooled. Five speed. Cable clutch. These Suzuki DR650 bikes have certainly carved out a reputation for themselves. Being such an old design, they have a ridiculously long list of known issues, and a few of these can actually kill the engine. But many of us enjoy the process of fixing these, update the suspension, and end up with an ultra reliable bike that is way cheaper than its bling ridden adventure competititors. It has barely changed since 1996. And the Suzuki DR650 comes highly restricted from the factory but will still pop the front wheel up everywhere even in the ridiculously high third gear if you read the Suzuki DR650 review. For some reason they outsourced to this design team for the DR650.

These Suzuki DR650 bikes have certainly carved out a reputation for themselves. The massive single just made the bike jump up and down on the one spot. A major problem faced by Suzuki was obtaining test riders for the DR650. They did not need to be skilled riders. Suzuki needed riders who had a death wish, or had a sufficiently low I Q that they were unable to assess the risks involved. But many of us enjoy the process of fixing these, update the suspension, and end up with an ultra reliable bike that is way cheaper than its bling ridden adventure competititors. If you are interested, I've done an entire series and Suzuki DR650 review on transforming the Suzuki DR650 into a kick arse adventure bike... and wheelie beast. These misfits also went on to design the DR800 which was taken out of production when it killed too many riders. If you are interested, I've done an entire series on transforming the Suzuki DR650 into a kick arse adventure bike... and wheelie beast. Anyway I only did this video because supporters asked if I could string together all the Suzuki DR650 wheelie vids in one video. Enjoy!
