How is the engine? (PM is fine.)

Wat se olie gebruik die bike ? (sorry, te lui vir 'search')

Unlike the KLR, the suzuki DR does not use oil.
You simply fill the reservoir with GTX at service time, and it stays there. Magic, I know, especially if you're used to a KLR.

That is what I use. Of course, about 50% of the people on this forum will take me to the cleaners for that and insist I use (insert their brand) because it is so much better.

Actevo bly vir my maar die beste in al my fietse, het dit laat toets  en die smeerring wanneer warm is top.

15W40 of 50 dalk bietjie beter. Soek dunner vir startup en bietjie dikker vir die warm dae.

You're not even trying to be humble here, are you?

Nou maar in daai geval het jy mos sekerlik die boekie saam gekry, gaan lees hom. RTFM!

Nee toe nie. Bike is sewe jaar oud. En ek is te lui om op te soek, siende al die kennis hier.

2010 model met 1760km op die klok

Did you fire her up? Bound to be petrol residue in the carb from standing so long. It will behelpful if you run a can of carb cleaner through it.

Yip, third touch of the button. The bike is brand new. Have never heard an enjin run so smooth. Electric. Flushed the carb. Lots of dirty fuel, but it was not dry. I don't think the bike has been standing, without being started, for so long.

But, I am having the carb properly cleaned next week. Idle is uneven. Drained the oil. Very black, but did not find any metal particles.

So far so good.

Aj as jy hierdie bike in a time capsule kon sit, hulle gaan nog eendag baie in aanvraag wees met so toestand en kilometers. Laaste van die proper on offroad eenvoudige betroubare min elektronika bikes.

Ek weet nog nie lekker hoekom ek hom gekoop het, en wat ek met hom gaan maak nie, behalwe dat dit 'n goeie deal was en ek nog altyd een wou hę, maar nie bereid was om die pryse te betaal nie.

Vir die onmiddelike toekoms wil ek hom oorspronlik hou en bewaar. Dan sal ons maar sien. Die Fugly sal die toerbike wees. Hy's klaar gekiet en ek pas beter op hom.

Well if you are having the carb done let the mechanic pull the starter motor and oil the bushes at the same time.

Jy hou hom vir my 
Ek sal bietjie gaan rondkrap, ek het dalk 'n spaar handboek vir jou. Maar dan is my naam eerste op die lys wanneer jy besluit jy't 'n groter of 'n kleiner DR nodige

Maar jy het dan een. Hulle breek mos nie en raak nie 'oud' nie ?
