Years
1990 - 1996
The SR43 is the later DR 800S with an updated engine and revised travel-oriented details. It remains a characterful big single; buy on condition, documentation and correct twin-carburettor operation rather than mileage alone.
Years
1988 - 1989
The first DR 800S SR42 is the big ‘Big’ with a 779 cc single, tall 21-inch front wheel and distinctive large tank. It is a heavy classic adventure bike that charms on dirt and relaxed touring roads; inspect tanks and bodywork for cracks and age.
The Suzuki DR-800, also known as the DR Big, is an imposing single-cylinder trail-enduro produced from 1988 to 1996. The engine is a 779 cc SOHC four-stroke single with a combined oil and air cooling system, producing around 44 kW (60 hp). In its day it was the largest production single in the world, partly developed using knowledge gained from the Dakar Rally. Distinctive features include the large fuel tank, long-travel suspension, and characterful engine note.
The DR-800 suits riders wanting to tackle serious long-distance adventures on both tarmac and dirt. The high seat and substantial weight make it unsuitable for beginners. It has a loyal following as a classic adventure-tourer for big-single enthusiasts. Period rivals include the Honda Africa Twin XRV650/750 and Yamaha Super Ténéré XTZ750.
