Why The DR650 Is A Unicorn (The Accessories)

[@keepswinging5225]

Ive been running the warp 9 case saver for almost a year. I cut the oil filter portion at an angle so it is separate but still overlaps the case side. Added a little bit of red rtv for peace of mind. After several unplanned dismounts, its held up very well. The white paint in the letters will come out pretty easily though. Give the lexx pipe a look. As far as sprokets, I'm running 14/46 and turning 6500 @ 75 mph. It's a blast on highways and in the woods but I dont hit the freeway on this bike. The options are huge.

I was thinking about doing that as a possibility. Did it cut fairly easily? Also, glad to hear that about the sprocket. For how I drive, a 14 would be close to a Goldilocks gear.

@@ComfyDadShoes it did. I used a hacksaw pretty easily. Some light work after with sandpaper should make it look really good. 😎

I have a dr650se and xr650r..and the xr650r is King

I’ve seen a few in my area. There’s plenty of newer xr650l’s though. I don’t know why Honda canned the r?!

How good is the 28 yr old DR650? People still buy it and talk about it because it's that good. I've had mine for 15 years, and it has all the mods and runs all day every day.

28 years might just be the break in cycle for these 🍻😂
