Does anyone know if the DR650's come with an endless chain stock? Also, are extensions available for the chain guard and chain guide to accomodate larger rear sprokets?

It is oval and the ID is 1.5" X 1.0". How does this compare with the restrictive opening on the 350? Would it help to open up the top of the box, or is there an aftermarket air box available for the DR650? If I do open up the top, will I need to change jetting? Any help would be highly appreciated!!

I cut mine 1" off of each end for woods riding and added enduro engineering handguards. I removed the solid metal bar in each end of the handlebars (apparently that is for anti vibration?). Hey- maybe I even lightened the bike too? In the woods (which is all I do) it handles much better and I don't seem to hit as many trees...

I dropped down one tooth on the front sprocket and it helped a bunch off road. Although, it was ok on the street, it was a bit low for long distance road work. By going to a 53 tooth on the rear, I'm guessing first gear will be vertually unusable. Do you have the GearCalc software? By going to a 53 tooth rear, you will go from 4145 rpm at 60mph to 5231 rpm at 60mph. Dropping one or two teeth on the front sprocket would save you all the modifications to the chain and chain guard as well. Just my opinion.. Oh, there is no master link in the stock chain. You'll need a new chain anyway for the length. You'll just have to grind a link off or use a chain breaker etc...Also, you'll need a new front sprocket too, unless you have found a 525 rear sprocket...in which the 525 chain will cost you a fortune. This is a good time to switch to 520 chain and sprockets.. JB >>> <HifiHerb@aol.com> 05/11/00 09:33PM >>> I'm installing a larger, 53 tooth, sprocket on the rear of my 1999 DR650SE.

They make an airbox for the DR350, but I am not sure if they have one for the 650. It is pricey, which is why I do not have one yet. I have heard and read about drilling three X one inch holes in the airbox of the 350 and this is supposed to help a lot. On mine, a previous owner almost completely removed the top of the airbox. A new friend here (previous Suzuki dealer and owner of the first dr350 sold in Colorado Springs) claims that opening the airbox, and going to an after-market muffler and header gives almost as much horsepower increase as his tricked out dr350. Of course you will want to check carb jetting with each mod. All a matter of how much cash you have to burn.
