    I purchased this 2009 DR650 from my younger brother, when he bought his TR650. It was already nicely farkled. He put on a TM40 carb, FMF header and supertrapp silencer, IMS tank, LED taillight, and HID headlight.

    I have since added different tires, LED signals, Cyclops LED headlight, procycle 8.3 rear spring, .55 front springs, a license plate holder I made myself after losing the plate twice, and added a RAM mount.

    It's quite possibly the most fun bike I've ever ridden.

    I uncovered this

    and got the 5 year old gas out of it and cleaned the dust off. Also replaced the gas valve in the raptor and replaced a shift shaft seal and found the reverse lever shaft seal was damaged so I pulled it out and have to get one.
