				Rich you should know Piglet only buy's cheap bike's

				Ah, never had a DR600, but have had a few big[ish] singles, XT500, XT600, KLR600 and a few smaller ones too; XT350, SP400.
Some of the Suzuki's have auto de-compressors, just hope yours has!

Had a spin on it today & started fine from warm 
 
I had an SP370, 20 yrs ago.... & a TT500 for a while...

				The carb-internals are crap... the choke-lever is held by a plastic-circlip, which wears out pretty quickly and then the choke is (secretly) sliding back in...
The rest of it was nice, I had one too, it had done approx 70.0000kms when I bought it and was still on the first bore (and last legs), when I sold it one season later with almost 100k on the clock.
