Memorable Motorcycle: Suzuki DR350

Our Memorable Motorcycles expert, Frank Melling also is the organizer of the British vintage motorcycle extravaganza known as Thundersprint. Melling began riding five decades ago and remains as much in love with motorcycles as when he drove his first bike into a cow shed wall aged ten. In the last 50 years, Melling has competed in every form of motorcycle sport and now declares himself to be too old to grow up and be sensible.

Riders bought, and buy, Suzukis because the bikes are honest and produce what they claim – and at a good price too. Just look at the latest baby V-Strom. Well behind the pace in terms of technology and engineering excellence but selling like waterproof clothing in an English summer.

Yet, you can’t ride a DR and not come back smiling. The motor is turbine smooth and as willing as a spaniel gun dog. The chassis is unbreakable and that soggy suspension is so forgiving. Rarely in the history of motorcycling has the total of such a collection of low point items produced such a high final score.

As I have already intimated, the DRs are very much a case of the sum total being vastly greater than the individual value of the parts, yet some of the DR’s components are a delight.

The best thing about the bike is the super-sweet 349cc, single overhead cam engine. There has never been a happier, more willing motorcycle engine than the DR’s and it is a thing of utter delight. On paper, the powerplant is nothing special – even for the 1990s. The single overhead cam engine means that valve adjustment can be done by any home mechanic without special tools, and changing the engine oil is equally simple.

Producing only 30 horsepower at 7600 rpm, the results ought to be dull but Suzuki gearbox engineers really earned their money and the ratios are chosen to perfection. This means that every one of the 30 available horses can be used all the time.

In the real world the DR will tackle really tough trails – certainly anything in the recreational trail rider’s handbook – and yet will cruise along the freeway at a genuine 70 mph with another ten or so mph left for overtaking.

The air-cooled four-valve single-cylinder engine is reliable and lively.

“The DR350s are one of the most reliable Suzukis – or any other bike for that matter. They really don’t have a weakness and will run forever without a fault.

“In fact, I prefer the DR350 to the DRZ400 which replaced it and I keep asking Suzuki to bring the old DR back – it’s that good!”

There are still tons of worn and abused DRs about for under $1000 but suddenly absolutely standard, unmolested DRs have become collectable. If you want a bike like this, then expect to pay nearer $3000 than $2000. The good news is that if ever there is a sure fire bet for further appreciation it is a mint condition DR.
