Suzuki DR BIG - any good?
 
Looking for a cheap trailey style bike for the odd commute and bit of polder dykw road, DR400s suzukis are silly money over here, 3.5k+ :shock:, have found an old low mileage DR BIG 750s, anyone know anything about them, thought it could be a bit of fun:

I want it for roads with a 50 mph speed limit, as long as it can accelerate to 70 and squeeze through traffic, skid and oull the odd wheelie I'd be happy. And not breakdown :D

Some reading there! I'll be using it mainly on road, the odd smooth track too, and I'm tallish (6 foot) so height shouldn't be an issue. Just read they can get up to 90 bhp from the rear wheel, now that sounds like fun!
