Woot! Today I got my Suzuki DR 350.

Measured the diameter:
Brought it over to a place where I could borrow a mill, was a bit hard to rig it up to hold . . . → Read More: Kick starter arm overhaul on the Honda XR400
By Dirty, on August 13th, 2011 In Sweden we have to do annual check ups on cars and every other year on motorcycles. Since I didn’t get the KTM ready for it before heading for America I missed the inspection and it was put out of traffic.
