The wobble in the steering at high speeds is the knobby tires.

Just got one of these today... taught myself to ride it in under 2 min .. within three hours, I got it stuck off trail after to climbing old logging trails up mt Shasta and running out of road. Had a frustrating moment after laying down the bike between a low hangin cedar tree and a boulder in 6 inches of duff over large rocks... after dislodging it rode the right back to the trail and immediately launched myself off the bike with a handful of front brake and landed on my back picked the bike up and raged off .. this bike is the shit plain and simple easy beginner bike (apparently) and really fun in technical rock/dusty sandy stuff with steep grades

Back 30 odd years ago I had a 87 sp 200 and loved it so I just bought a new 2017 hold-over dr 200 basically the same bike at a very very discounted price almost half price actually and once again great bike with great old school tech.

just got 2009 dr200se . good reviews. real fun bike to work on . parts are cheap on ebay. can't what for break parts to come in . so i can take it for a ride. it's not a power house. just good old fun.
I got this bike and took it to silver lake sand dunes in Michigan and it handled it a lot better than the DRZ-400 in steering and balance, but it heats up so bad that you can only take it so far. However trails are really good. And if your not into speed but power, give it a smaller front sprocket and it does great. With the small sprocket on mine it can only get up to about 55 though, but it's still fun to just whip around on at the dunes.

I bought mine brand new one month ago and absolutely love this little beast of a machine! One question, does anyone out there know why some of the DR200's come with a mat black gas cap and others come with a chrome gas cap? AND, the chrome gas cap has a little lock dust cover over it whereas the black gas caps do not. It doesn't seem to be relative to the year of the bike, either. Just wondering...
nicely done
Great little bikes! There decent upgrades those like pipe?

Ok wtf I use this as a dirt bike like 95% mud gravel 5% blacktop and I can barely get a top speed of 50 miles per hour before it is reving so hard it feels like it’s about to blow up even when leaning down to reduce wind resistance it is just can’t do over 50 and it is only comfy at 45 mph where it isn’t wound so tight it isn’t going to throw a rod after riding at that speed for a little while(don’t mention trying to hold 45 on a incline try for more like 25mph wound right in 3rd gear after having to downshift twice because it can’t pull up the hill). So because of its horrible top speed I have used it as a heavy dirtbike I’ve put 3000 miles on it (bought brand new and Broke in correctly) off-road and with a little on blacktop. bear in mind this has been through some of the roughest roads you have ever seen that the only thing that gets through there is a horse or a dirtbike or 4 wheeler when it’s dry but it has done well stock tires had let sticks go through multiple times leaving me stuck with a flat in the middle of nowhere so that was soon replaced with a Bridgestone and it goes just fine off-road and on the blacktop quickly pulling out of a gravel road onto another gravel that leads to the middle of nowhere again. All in all I hate it for being lied to it can take a max speed of 70 when I bought it( they couldn’t do road test drives only around the tiny parking lot) and yes it was a certified dealership I don’t know why mine doesn’t reach this speed but by the time I got it home ( in the bed of truck ) and was easy on it till the 500 mile break in was done I went to open it up and was so pissed it couldn’t go a legal speed and I couldn’t bring it back tried selling it on the side of road nobody wanted it because it won’t go the speed limit so I’m stuck with my shitty ass dirtbike that I am stuck with and yes I attempted a sprocket change 5 actually I got a very aggressive change and it couldn’t take off without stalling or burning the clutch so changed a few teeth again better got a ok speed of 55 comfy Rpm and I took a 25degree incline and I couldn’t go up it in second gear barely and the others didn’t change it so it’s back on stock sprocket so there is my story with my Suzuki that I am fucking stuck with that nobody will buy sorry Suzuki but you lost me on this major waste of my fucking money sorry for the story and poor setup I barely passed college and high school English for a reason and I know the story goes to different topics but they are all true and another thing yes I did research on it before I spent money and yes it’s a real Suzuki bike and yes it did feel powerful in the first 3 gears in that parking lot like it could reach 70 if you actually hit it hard I just cannot explain in words my disappointment in Suzuki for this I still trust Suzuki but not like I did after this disaster
nice video, where are this bikes assembled? factory? parts made in Japan?

so you went to get the g.f. a new motorcycle, she didn't lie it, so you bought yourself a new one? the seat went from feeling like a two by four, but then was comfortable?
I bought a 2018, and it’s only got 1500 miles on it. But for some reason at 55 mph plus I feel like I’m hurting the engine. I can almost hear my valves rattle. Is that normal!???

wait, I'm confused, did you sell your dr650?? or do you still have it, I love this little bike, what mods would you recommend for performance and practicality?? would you recommend it to a good or decent rider thats 5,8 to 6ft tell or should I invest in a dr650, the only downside is the weight in the 650 all though it's a lot lighter than its competitors...what do you think??

hehe I still have the DR650. I was gona trade it because I didnt want a 3rd payment. But, after owning my gladius, and the GSXR. The dr is still my favorite bike. As far as the dr200 goes. I would recommend buying one if you had a second bike. One that could go faster then 73.. lol. I complain about the weight of the DR all the time. But thats only because im pushing it well past its limits. Trying to ride it like a motocross bike. If you watch some of my latest DR650 Adventure videos. you will see what i mean hehe

A Few thing to also note with the DR200S to the DR200SE Trojan. the Trojan SE can not be road registered in my country Australia or Europe. The Trojan has a higher emission standard and does not pass emission regulations in Australia or the EU. IT comes with hands bar protectors front engine bar guard. Bash plate, Head light bar protector and carry rack and rear 30cm x 40nm back rack for $4000 AUD that is less then $3000 USD I pay for 2018 DR200SE Trojan brand new. Also didn't come with mirrors or horn. I hear some review saying that there is lag with exceleration. Not with my bike so I think that lag maybe cause by the emission controlling application to road registration models.

The road version is very slow due to a really restrictive oversized vaccum operated carburator and there is also some restrictor in the exhaust. These things makes the bike incredibly slow to gain rpm and speed and is generally pretty meh performance wise. Rip out the original carb and replace it with a PWK or similar and the bike can finally rip pretty good. As for the exhaust restrictor I did not feel too much difference putting on a DG slip on. However the carb swap was a huge surprise.
What's a Tubafore? The low notes.

Makes me feel pretty good about my 1995 DR125SE. Seems pretty similar in acceleration. Mine tops out at around 65, and it actually feels fine at top speed. I am itching for a DR650 though 😂
I had a '91 DR250s, and I could have sworn it hit 90 MPH a few times, but not with me riding. My friend loved taking it out for runs, and with me following in my 5.0 Capri, he hit 90+ on the 118 Freeway in L.A. according to my speedo, which he confirmed was showing on the Suzuki's speedo. Then again, the 250 was rated at 29 HP. Loved that bike...
hace un mes que compre la drx 200, modelo 2019, he tenido la xtz 250, la pulsar 200 ns y me quedo con la drx 200, si tuviera mas dinero compraria tambien la ns 200, que tambien me dejo muy satisfecho, pero en la vida no se puede tener todo, bueno el caso es que estoy conforme con el desempeño, calidad, y consumo de gasolina de la drx. si la compra, para competir y volar por autopistas, esta no es su moto, la moto es ideal para las empinadas y serpenteantes carreteras de la zona andina y las trochas. personalmente a mi no me importa que apenas alcance los 95 o 100 con parrillero, las luces son bastante buenas y alumbran bastante bien. Algo que si le criticaria seria el precio ( un poco mas de 4 mil USD ) , tambien le critico que no tiene calcomanias en el tanque, y su carenaje es muy sencillo, sinembargo le personalice las calcomanias al tanque, las tapas laterale, el carenaje, el sillin y otras cositas y ahora es la sensacion pordoquiera que voy.

@@philpollard7260 Are you the Mechanic or are you the owner? Cause in my experience, Owners dont know jack shit... I highly doubt some key board warrior such as your self knows how to torque Wrist pins.. Do you even run your engines on a Dyno?
Guess that engine isn't going to get broken in correctly.

Gladius Jon that is a controversial topic. All I can tell you from my personal experience is all engines I have ever built, bought, or rebuilt have always had a break-in period. Multiple manufactures even state that it is needed.

Gladius Jon I like it off-road, works good for me. But I haven't rode anything else so I don't really have anything to compare it to.

bullshit every fucking one engine needs to break in or THEY MAYBY FAil. NOT evryone but just make it less possible to engine size
breaking in a engine is over rated u dont break in the engine in ur race car before ur race u build it, dyno test, tune, test run, then race!

True!
Maybe your wife might be into something more like a Yamaha tw200. Possibly just to start out on 🤷🏻♂️ could be worth a shot

The big tire in the back would be great if she has a big azz
Google said 90, and I knew that was bs.
Shame it wasn't tested off road which is where it mainly belongs..

NoBs here you go. Single track timed vs drz400 kzread.info/dash/bejne/eJxkxKuFhNLMhbw.html
He seems like he is just comparing to what he is used to riding. He has to remember this bike is for his wife. It is called a 200cc for a reason. He can't expect to get power and whatever else from a 200cc like a 650cc. He is putting the bike down the whole time likely knowing his wife will watch it. He seems like he is looking to get power from the bike that it is incapable of giving like the 650cc. Have to remember to compare it to other 200cc bikes.or else you would obviously not be satisfied with results when comparing with a bigger, faster, stronger bike
7:18 You're welcome.
Blew up your wife's last bike? And she is letting ride this one! Are you trying to blow up this bike, running continuously full throttle and it isn't even broke in yet. 200's are nice trail bikes but you should be on your 650.
200cc and it only goes 70? Poor poor bike😐
