1990 Suzuki DR350
Mud-plugging may not be to everyone’s tastes, but anyone who does, will always highly recommend it as a way to shed the rigors of the city and head out into the wilderness to “find yourself”. It helps with road riding too, teaching handling skills at safer speeds. Before dashing off to the KTM dealer, the classic Suzuki DR350 may just be the perfect machine for the job.
Strong, reliable, capable are the more obvious adjectives to describe Suzuki’s mid-capacity dual sport machine. Reviewers consider the engine to be just about bombproof with 34bhp and 26 lbft of torque, power enough for the trail and the street roads to get you there.
The motorcycle offered
The 1990 Suzuki DR350 on offer here comes to us from a former dealer, collector, off-road racer and enthusiast with a substantial collection of American and European bikes. Recently liberated from long term storage, the odometer now reads a mere 5,474 miles from new.
Nice upgrades include the soft luggage bags mounted on frames, safety parts for off road abuse from Devol and Works Connection, Yoshimura pipe, and a desert gas tank from Acerbis.
