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! :shock:

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.
