Sarge, I read this today on the 98 DR650s...

Quote:
Known issues on Suzuki DR 650
by Elden Carl

The DR650 has a pretty good history since 1996, but isn't perfect. The engine has been plagued by base gasket leaks until this year (late 2004) when they finally installed a special steel base gasket coated with some magic black stuff similar to what is used on the head gasket. The leaks should stop, we hope.

The 6mm threaded holes that you screw the valve cover bolts into tend to be soft, so don't exceed the torque specs. The DR 350 has the same problem so I used Time-SertsŪ on all of the holes and will do the same to the DR650.

The 1998 and part of the 99 model year's had faulty starter mechanisms causing the engine cases to crack if the engine backfired. Avoid these years if you buying a used one or demand a left side inspection under the covers. If the cases aren't cracked, the 2003 improved parts can be retrofitted to solve the problem.
 Update !

Suzuki has finally started using the new upgraded steel base gaskets on the 2004 DR650.
You can identify the steel base gasket by two small rivet tabs that are located on each side of the cylinder at its base. Do not accept the 2004 DR650 with the fiber base gasket; as they often fail and cause serious oil leaks.

JT, I have read that, the good thing is that I have no starter, my bike is kick start only. If you were to buy one of those problematic bikes the fix would be cheap and easy.

All bikes have issues like that, don't let it deture you, the DRs for the most part are bullet proof, and the few that slipped through the cracks are easily remedied. Honda and Kawi both have similar issues.

I am starting to realize that, some of these people on thumper talk seem to be very dim lights, gives me confidence.

Plus, how complicated can a 1 cylinder engine be?

Uh-oh...famous last words have been uttered!

Maybe if it were a two stroke, but the valves add a whole new dimension to the equation!
