By the end of the 1980’s Suzuki’s DR600 was the largest Enduro they listed, and with Honda already selling it’s 650 Dominator, Suzuki came back with a larger upgraded version; the DR 650 in 1991.
Although sharing many common mechanical traits, the appearance was quite different.
The riding position was improved to help road riding to be a more comfortable experience. Power was up slightly, but more importantly the torque figure went up to 56.6nm @ 5000rpm, making this model seriously brisk in it’s mid range performance, ideal for a long distance ‘Adventure’ enduro model.
