Hello, i just thought to use english speaking part of this great forum,because nobody else is not Yes my 97/DR350SE is now at 102500km, and after 8 years of riding in Finnish forests i still love my bike and would not change it for anything
Well, nothing else at the moment, i just wanted to announce this to the guys who respect this great little bike

At 40000km i became worried,how much little motor can eat kilometres,so i decided open up the head of motor. My worries were useless,because motor was ok, but since head was opened i decided to put new stock size piston (no boring) and new exhaust valves in. But original parts would have gone also many ten thousand km still ahead. I guess, i was little paranoid at the moment and did not understand that DR350 is unbreakable
Since then motor has not opened, even clutch plates and cam chain are still original, and think about this, i drowned my bike to the river in Lappland, and i had to ride my bike over 50km almost 1litre water in the engine, and it still refused to break after such poison treatment
I always hoped that my bike will make the 100000km
I`ve got "only" 52000 today, but hearing your message I don`t have to concern about the future 48000km anymore
where do you live in Finland? I´m looking for a destination for summer holidays next year with large offroad part (I travel by bike only) for about 2 weeks
you know I'm born to loose
and gambling is for fools
but that's the way I like it baby
I don't want to live forever
