Here is the earliest picture I can find of my 2005. I already put the rear suspension back to stock and welded a 1 1/2" piece of tubing to extend the sidestand.

my 2004 DR. i bought it with an IMS long range tank, Hyde handguards and a really LOUD pipe! i added the bashplate, a small carrier rack and some Suzuki graphics.... i still need to replace the pegs with wider ones. i replaced the D606 rear tyre with a Michelin Sirac, but for my upcoming December rides i'm going to put the D606 back. works better in the rough stuff!

And this is today, after umpteen million mods and farkles all of which you can see. TM40, airbox, full FMF, rebuilt suspension, Clarke tank, tailight, lowered pegs, seat concepts, protaper CR highbends, Barkbusters, pillowtop grips, skid plate, etc, etc. Lots of fun. And now I am broke. Time for some overtime to start saving for spring riding.


Threw on the skid plate this morning.

The evolution of a DR...

It started life as a ho-hum off the shelf blue '05 like this one:

It was then sold to a guy in Minnesota who wanted to build a sumo for his wife. He ended up with this:

Then I got my grubby hands on it:

On the day I brought it home from the dealer in October 2007:

"How do you start this thing? . . . ."

As it sits today. This picture was taken in August 2011 at the OK/AR border while riding the eastern portion of the TAT.

Since the TAT I put the stock tank back on because I prefer the graphics.
