I Bought a Brand New Suzuki DR650 in 2025….. Here’s Why

Описание: I bought a brand new 2025 Suzuki DR650, and before turning it into the Ultimate Adventure Build, I wanted to experience it exactly how Suzuki intended — completely bone stock.
In this video, I take the DR650 on its first real ride: highway cruising, city riding, dirt roads, single track, climbs, and water crossings to answer one question:
👉 Is the DR650 still relevant after 30 years of almost no changes?
This legendary dual sport has a cult following for a reason — simplicity, reliability, and pure riding fun. But how does it actually perform straight off the showroom floor in 2025?
This is Part 1 of a full multi-episode DR650 build series where this bike will evolve into an extreme rally-inspired adventure machine featuring parts from:
Carbon Fox Rally Kit
Acerbis Tank
Tractive Suspension
Lectron Carburetor
Mosko Moto Luggage
Leo Vince Exhaust
Trail Tech Electronics
…and much more.
Before the upgrades begin, this is the real, honest stock DR650 review.

What is the FIRST upgrade every DR650 needs?
