We hit 1000Subs with this video, thanks for the support! We have a heap of ideas in the works to come.
Cheers,

My DR watches this when I'm not home
Haha training
😂😂 My DRZ watches You're DR Watch this when neither of us are home
My DR was frightened and looked away through most of this clip 🤣 Sweet skills mate, and shows how capable they are with a good rider 😎👍
Cheers MCA, don't let your DR look away, being able to envision it is a big part :)
The Japanese build a tight engine so maybe the first oil spot happens because somebody made it feel looser .
Man awesome riding ! You're the Myth Busters for the DR650.
You can't do that on a DR650, can't do that with a big tank and a tank bag, can't do that with full luggage, can't do that with a plastic bash plate...etc etc ! If there is anything I can't do on my DR, clearly it's because of me !!
Haha that's a great idea for a vid Thanks!
FINALLY... A DR650 video with a real rider pushing this tractor.... No blah blah blah wanna be BS... I consistently see BMW riders all geared up / dead summer / fluorescent yellowed up giving advice and tips... Good work to finally see a real rider... !!!!
Cheers Tommy
@@SKIDSnSTUFF Na Zdrowie... Cheers in Polish... Tractor on... !!!
The horn beap mid air made me smile. Excellent riding 👍
Tough bike. Tough rider. Reworking the big DR's suspension really makes an incredible difference.My '17 DR lives an easy life compared to yours. When they stop making these great bikes, they'll be sorely missed. Best DR rider I've seen on YT, and I've seen almost all!
I hope Suzuki is hard at work with their new DR and don't stray too far from the current model... and pricing
After all that make-it-look-easy, I like how he ends on a problem jump.
Finally, a man that knows how to ride his DR 650!
Fuck I've probly forgotten how to ride by the time I get the thing fixed. Cheers for watching Frank
Yeah not bad.. Haha kidding, sweet riding yet again mate, such a joy to watch a bike of that weight being tossed like it's a 110kg enduro.
Thanks again GOGo glad you're still enjoying the content
Yes
90% Rider, 10% Bike. That was great to watch :D
thanks for dropping by Wasca
This is the DR650 vid we've all been waiting for mate! Fantastic stuff! 👏
Cheers Austin, there's plenty more where this came from, I'm happy to fill the void 😀 you might like our "tech enduro trails" vid. ua-cam.com/video/RhMHb4I1v_o/v-deo.html
Thanks for dropping in
Dude, you shred! Love it.
Thankyou I also love your stuff, it's great to see your deep understanding of videography and the work and planning that goes into it. Cheers for dropping a line
This bike sounds like it doesn’t change RPM. 4000RPM all day but Skids still makes it look quick 😉👍
Mate you can ride! Best bike video ever with some beautiful scenery to boot. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Mick glad you enjoyed, cheers for the kind words!
You handle that DR like an absolute boss🤙
Thanks for watching!
Brilliant riding. If I left my DR with you for a few days do you think you could train-it-up to that sort of level for me? Happy to provide my DR, in good mechanical nick, fully kitted with camping gear in low-slung soft panniers, a full 30 litre tank of fuel and with fresh Dunlop 606's. My DR is not a novice but could do with some specialised training - especially jumping (large) logs, riding across moss-covered rocks and negotiating deep water with concealed, slimy, twin track ruts etc... Happy to leave the bike for a longer period of time if that is required. Many thanks.
Absolutely, Im more than willing to give it a shot for how ever long it takes. General turn around is approx 12 months :)
After 12 months, you just have to point it at the ruts and watch her go.
@@PlatinumRatio that's essentially the trick anyway!
Epic video Skids, amazing riding, awesome scenery, the Warpig in action tearing up the dirt, what more could a bloke want.
Thanks alot!
Wow- so many shots. You must really enjoy filming it all to put up with doing that! Well done!
I have always enjoyed photography. This video is a compilation of clips over time from other videos I was shooting for so wasn't too bad :)
I can feel the single cylinder grunt and thump through the video :)
🤟
Wanna know what that was? Bloody beautiful! Some of the best footage of the dr in its natural habitat I've watched. Nice. 👍
Thanks for the high praise Bearly Awake! You may like some of our other episodes in that case :)
@@SKIDSnSTUFF I'll definitely check em out. You make it look easy and certainly highlight my ineptitude rather than my Dr's capability 😉
I almost never comment on videos but this video is exactly what I wanted to see. I've been looking at all kinds of reviews for Dual-sports and every one is full of specs and comparisons. Enough to drive you crazy.
Seeing someone just take it out on all kinds of terrain and showing what it's capable of is absolutely perfect. This is the first video I've watched of yours and it earned my like and subscribe without asking once. Very well done. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to watch it again
Haha that's great to hear dude, exactly who I made this stuff for in the first place, me and crew like me 🙂
That's Awesome!! Getcha Some!! Those are some awesome trails you Ride.. love the Video
Thanks Ed
The sound of that suspension is like butter. Love my dr650!
A skilled rider showing of the mighty Dr 650 nice work. 👌
Cheers Randie!
Now THIS is a dr650 rider! Haha I wish I could throw around mine like you do
Just give it these ones ✊ glad you enjoyed
Can't believe Suzuki have not picked you up as a stunt rider and ambassador for this bike! God knows what you would be like on a WR! Great vid mate.
Cheers Andrew. I'll await their call ;)
@@SKIDSnSTUFF May be a while as the discontinuation of the bike may stall this. Nether seen anyone ride a DR like that mate. Lucky I did not see it before getting my KTM 690 as would of saved 10K but would not be able to ride it like you do! Look forward to the next vid.
This is an awesome display of skill and what an awesome bike you've built.
Cheers Matthew, I'll put a bike check together soon
I promise you this bike won't let you down. It is a beast.
Beliedat!
You ride like the devil man!!!! The diversity of country in this video is unreal! Just in the middle of purchasing my second DR650. Such an inspirational video, THANKS!
😅 epic!! Simple and robust! You do it all and properly. Well done mate! No traction control, ABS BS!! Supa nice.
Cheers Jimbob
Finally! No music!!!!! Thank you for just allowing us to hear the bark!
Nothing sweeter 😋
This is what I think I look like putting along the access trial at school zone speed limits
Offroad wonderland!
I love the horn honk over the dirt jump(whether intentional or not)
Awesome riding!!! Loved watching this video. Your video quality has really stepped up!
Keep it up! I really enjoy your content
Glad to have you along, cheers!
Epic stuff to be throwing that pig around like that!! Good one mate!
Cheers JoeJoe
As someone coming from street riding who’s starting to do dirt and replacing my Himalayan with a dr650, I’m jealous lol. Awesome video.
Good choice!
Got some talent on that thing
Awesome riding shows how versatile the DR650 really is. :)
An absolute weapon! Thanks for watching
Wow great vid mate, you must have spent ages moving the camera around. You make me want a DR
Can highly recommend. Cheers Bazz
thanks for the whirlwind ride, respect your skill and riding style, ad the electric start makes life a bit easier haha 😂
Wow, mad skills with that DR! That was pretty entertaining to watch. Thanks for sharing.
dude would be unstoppable on a 450 racer . Nice to see when someone knows how to properly ride a dr
Cheers Street Hawk
Great vid !! Good to see familiar scenery and that fallen Jarrah clearance was impressive. It's unusual to see the old bush pig getting pushed like that but it shows how skill can achieve a lot. Cheers and subbed.
Thanks for following along!
Thats a lot of work for all that awesome footage, thx for sharing!
Wow GREAT SHOTS! You are flyin! Big thumper air time. Enduro for life!
What great places you have to ride. I need to move
there's great places everywhere i'm pretty sure, hope you find some hidden gems
The best Dr650 video I've seen..
glad you enjoyed it. You may like the vids linked at the end
Wow! Won't dare to do that with mine.
Great handling of that DR ! Got one it’s a beast to handle off-road but it can go anywhere if u have the skills! 👍🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆
My good friend and neighbor rides his DR like this on stock tires and doesn't understand why I'm impressed.
haha weapon! no doubt just seems normal to him
You’re scaring my new bone stock DR! Please stop!
I don’t like how your videos make me realise I can’t ride my DR as good as you can 🙃
I plan to put out some vids with some little spoken about riding tip hacks that may help you with that :)
Dude, you're the best! Please tell us your bike's modifications!
Copy that although I feel like it will be a little under whelming, the Warpig doesn't have a ton of fancy mods. Thanks for the suggestion!
just came across your channel love the DR's, the no hander and honk made me click Subscribe haha, this is awesome keep up the good work :)
Cheers Jr, welcome along. What do I gotta do to get ya to click the bell 😉
@@SKIDSnSTUFF I just did, and Insta and FB :) Cheers buddy
You are a verified bad ass. I can't do half that stuff yet.
Fantastic riding ! thanks for sharing !
Thank you too for watching
No, you make that look easy. wow!!
thanks for checking the vid out Platinum
Awesome vid mate👍 and brilliant riding 🤙
Cheers G&S and thanks for dropping by
Ahhh yes, The Hamamatsu Warthog. A true legend.
Haha truth
W cholere dobry film !!!
Cheers, I think 😉
Such a fun ride 🔥
Cheers for watching :)
Heita Skidzz, my ‘bru - throwing that old pig around to inspire us all!!!
Great to hear that Cheers Ruffian
Gotta have mad skills to do that on any bike, let alone the bush pig.
Cheers Daniel
True, but of confidence, judgement, and speed
guess which one can be purchased with a key ?
I'm the happy owner of a DR650SE with Bark-
buster add-on due to slightly bent handlebars.
Well this just destroyed the KLR vs DR debate. I can stop searching.
Good riding bro. Love the bush pig. Go anywhere
All the love for this bike, Suzuki must have done something right
Great vid, keep them coming please. Nice compilation. Ya gotta luv WA, we've got a bit of everything.
Yep great variety to put down some happy k's. Thanks!
This is where us old guys run into problems. I have been riding motorcycles since I was five years old. I am now 60. I’ve had every kind of four wheeler. Side-by-side dirtbike street bike you name.I probably had one at sometime. I sold my DR 650 when I moved to the beach, I wish I had not have but trying to ride a 330 pound motorcycle in the sand with dual sport tires is a recipe for disaster. You better be an a class rider because what you were watching this man do you will not be able to replicate and will probably end up in the emergency room if you’re lucky. That being said an awesome bike for what it’s made for, but don’t think you’re buying a dirtbike. You could also reference this for the T7 Tenere a 450 pound dirtbike. Get out of here.Less then 1% of the population can ride these things off road like that and it ain’t you or me.😂
Brilliant stuff! Might have to spend some money on my pogo sticks so that I can have a crack at some of this. Mine bottoms out too easily...
Money well spent, I still need the tighten up the valving in the rear more too. Cheers!
Suspension do the front forks and rear shock.
Sick run on the BIG PIG! Respect!
Cheers for watching 👀 😀
Finally someone who rides this bike like i do
enjoy the shred, thanks for watching
Great video !!! Totally awesome !!!
Cheers Stephbeau thanks for dropping by
Well in the wrestling of the pig.. i think you won that round my friend!! Very entertaining, i must say your suspension looks like its doing a better job than my old girl.. or maybe im not trying hard enough 🤔 Nice work mate..👌
could be so! the Warpig has uprated springs. Thanks!
Straight boss, making that bike look like a 125cc bro, killin it! Super jealous!
I have a DR, but...I didn't do that 🤣
Thanks heaps Ian
great driver
Impressive skills, again!
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice bit of riding! Wish I had someplace like that closer to my home near Toronto. I have a 1991 DR650 and a 2018 KTM 1290 Super Adventure R. Completely different ends of the adventure spectrum. The KTM is amazing, with a motor that makes me want to take it to bed with me. The DR has been my solid ride since i bought it in 1992. Doesn't even have electric start. I'm considering selling the KTM, it's just quite large and quite heavy, and prepping the DR for longer trips. I have done quite a lot of work on the DR, but it's geared more like a big trials bike right now. I've done the front forks but the stock rear shock could use some work. Wish it was a 6-speed, the 5-speed tranny is one of the dumbest things Suzuki did, and continues to do.
Thanks Randy! We are pretty lucky here with the wide open lands right out the front door. I find the DR pretty capable for most things with the right gearing (15/44) but definitely get a good tight revalve on the rear shock, that in itself could be the single best change on the Warpig
@@SKIDSnSTUFFwas wondering what gearing you have on there. That front wheel comes up nicely. Thought you had maybe a bigger ring on the rear
@@mozaic_channel yep 15/44
got the popcorn & bourbon ready for the Bloopers vid :)
Haha I'll see what I got! A lot of these are the 'bloopers' version
Awesome riding dude 🏍💨💨💨💨
That black sand looks like Mandurah Hate black sand 🤢🤮
Yeh it is just near Mandurah, out by Lakes Rd :)
@@SKIDSnSTUFF yep I fell off just out by Lakes Rd in that black sand. Lol cracked a rip or two. Was going to slow. 😂
🏍💨💨💨💨
Man your a good rider - wish i could do half of that
Just a matter of bike time :) Cheers!
Enjoy your videos and awesome riding skills!
Glad you like Alan thanks for checking out the vids
Excellent video. I really enjoy watching people ride the piss out of bikes to show their true potential.
Did you modify the suspension at all?
Yep she's had a tweak. Bike check video here.
ua-cam.com/video/Wz-q4_I9Zqo/v-deo.html
Top riding 👍👌✊ subbed.
cheers Tony and welcome!
@skidds and stuff. Awesome video man ! Really enjoyed watching your skills and riding. I recently picked up a xt600e from 2002 and installed hyperpro afterparket front and rear springs ! Do you have aftermarket springs , beacause looks like your dr takes quit a beating :D. Keep the vids coming. Subscribed
Yeh it has uprated front and rear springs and some valving done, still needs a bit of a tweak. Cheers Marnix, welcome along 🍻
🇦🇺😎👍The Big DRasaurass
Отличная поездка. Привет из Узбекистана.
Спасибо, приятно слышать из Узбекистана :)
Skillzzzzz
All bikes are good, I get it. Just ride. But, if anyone is thinking about getting a CRF250/300, or a Kawi 250, or any other small starter bike, forget it. Just get a DR650. You can crawl around on it or you can absolutely thrash it, as seen here. The snow finally fell here in Vermont, USA. The battery has been removed and she has officially gone into hibernation. Sleep well my bush pig, I'll see you in a few months.
I could see a world where it's useful to have a smaller lighter bike as a first bike
absolute weapon
Thanks for stopping by Merro
@skids n stuff I watched your videos before buying my DR650 which I got 2 weeks ago, it's my first time riding off road and owning a dual sport bike, I've already spent around 15 hours total riding in the bush and now I really have an appreciation for just how good a rider you are!
I'm still running with the stock tyres but I find them extremely slippery, especially in sand, which tyres do you run on yours?
I'm pretty settled on front Motoz Desert 90/100 and for the rear either Motoz Rallz or Maxiss M6006 depending on the season
@@SKIDSnSTUFF thank you!
Nice ridin mate... wondering how you plow through that sandy stuff... wow...and river..
What is the phone bracket holder you using ?? Stays on I guess eh... greetings from Muskoka Canada..
yeh the phone mount is great, made a review on it here. and Link is in the description of that video
ua-cam.com/video/acV35cbwObc/v-deo.html
The honk! Hahah
Good stuff Beno👍
Cheers!
Very impressive mate
Cheers Brett
Hell yeah!
So much more fun on a 650 vs a 300L
No doubt!
Two thumbs up!!
cheers Haugen :)
Grande manico complimenti grande dr
Cheers for watching Marco
Freak 😉👍
Thanks for dropping a commennt on this old thing littleblackduck. We got another compilation coming soon
man I´d love to learn about the shock / springs arragements on this particular DR!
Uprated springs and valving to suit. Full bike check episode coming. Thanks for dropping in.
