Once the boat anchor sells then get a Stella ,,, you will not be sorry,,, I'm thrilled with mine,,, anyways you always have the klx to ride when you want the real ride!!!! lol,,, Sunday I rode the Stella in the morning to get stuff at the store,,, then the wife went to a family function early afternoon,,, I wasn't invited as usual,,, we call that the GREEN LITE where I come from,, so I took a blast on the dr,,, what a difference!!! Don't get me wrong I love my Stella but when it comes to really riding,,, nothing can touch a well running full size

Seat is getting broke in. I love it, keeps getting better. I do have a 83 riva with a new battery to ride and the suspension is actually better than that majesty, takes the bumps better but it still beats me up on a long ride. In the next few weeks I am going to get each a led headlight.

I've had my dr for two years next month and I'm still kicking myself over not getting into dual sports earlier in my riding career,,,I gotta get me a Sargent seat,,I'll buy a clean used seat pan on eBay and send it over to them,,,mine could use a decent seat,,,it's not quite as bad as the original on the dr650 or klx like yours but it's close,, hour- hour and a half and I'm ready for a break,,,

Kinda ok, had not ridden for about a week but did today. aches pains suck. Yea maybe tomorrow will get a camera or tablet out so you can see. It is a tad lower than OEM and I been getting on like you get on a horse! And what a ride....you can hardly even feel bad road like washboards and the like.
Am really pissed at myself for putting up with that G D majesty for so long, between the awful ride and the high maintenance and lack of readily available parts. I would have been way better off with a chinese 250 scooter. Could have bought 2 of them new for what I paid for the used yamaha and got parts a lot easier too.
