Re: How many of us have Dr 350's

Yep....I've got one.
Had it about 1 1/2 yrs and ridden it about 3 times.
Just replaced fork seals and oil this week.
Just have to sort r/h pet cock seep on reserve (that fuel pipe is scarily close to the header pipe).
0h and carb overflow if fuel left on.
Be testing it up and down to the south coast ...

Re: DR 350 fettling

Can I ask what you've had done to the forks?

I took mine off today and I've been trying to get the seals off...damaged.

Manual just says 'remove'....maybe I'm missing something.

Only the bottom one is leaking anyway...just thought I'd do them all ....(sigh).

Sorry to butt in..

in the end i used the same ratchet strap to winch the bike up from the garage rafters, worked loads better

Noted Dave....Thank ...
