Not long had mine and its honestly the best bike I've ever had. Even though she needs work I can't stop riding her.
Your yellow frame is awesome
Not sure why this photo is sideways.

Nice bike, if a little sideways
I see from your previous bike list you used to have a DRZ400, which do you prefer? I was thinking of getting a 400 as a replacement for my KL250 Super Sherpa

DR350 is ergonomically the best for me. It fits me like a glove and feels lighter. That said my DRZ was set up for someone heavier. I found it tall and top heavy although I only had it a few months becore it was stolen, I would have had it tweaked if I'd had ot longer. The engine in the DRZ is lovely was the best torque I've ever felt. I'm not a power hungry rider and to me the DR has the right amount of power for my use. I've got fast car for covering mega distances (which I do all the time).
Overall I'm completely in love with my DR in a way I've not been with any bike or car before

Cheers for the reply dude, will give the 250 a few more trails to get used to it but it's very low, great when you need to put a foot down for a dab (or paddle!) but the pegs catch in the ruts a little too easily, guess I'll need to try a 350 and a 400!

Thanks for the comments,
Brenhden- what litre tank is that on your dr? Was it on there when u had it? Only wondering how the bigger tank full of fuel would feel weight wise on the bike, I think mine is 9 or 11 litre
Cheers

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 in a few weeks.
P.S. I seem to have cocked up posting the pic ....
