Motorcycle Consumer News Article on the DR650SE

Motorcycle Consumer News is doing a multi-part article on our favorite bike, the Suzuki DR650SE. In the June 2010 issue is part III of the ongoing series. This particular article deals mainly with performance issues including; supermoto wheels and tires, better braking, TM40 carburetor and aftermarket exhaust systems. They also addressed lighting, footpegs and the brick of a thing called a seat. They hit on many of the issues and problems that we have encountered ourselves.

Dave Searle and the staff at Motorcycle Consumer News were nice enough to let us post a copy of the article here on our website.
