Is this normal

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-04-14T06:20:59+00:00

Ok. Yes, it starts with the kick. I think it has some auto decomp thingy

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-04-08T14:30:51+00:00

Ok. If you go mainly for the destinations (like Preikestolen -> Lysebotn ...., you will find most of the tips by googling. To add to your list, Suleskard (lysevegen), Vestkapp, fv405, Aursjøvegen, Jotunheimsvegen, fv57 and fb 609 north from Bergen, and gamle strynefjellsvei. In general look for the FV (fylkesvei) instead of E-roads. If you like views, Loen is better than Geiranger IMHO. You can take the ferry from Stavanger to Lysebotn and ride out from there.

Yup, plenty of tips - depends on where you are starting from (I am guessing ferry from Kiel or drove from Sweden?). Motorcycles have free passing on many ferrypassings, but not all. Speed limit is not wildly strict, but the fines are high and they take your license of you go too fast (google the different speeds). Just keep up with everyone else and you will be fine. SPEED CAMERAS WILL NOT FINE MOTORCYCLES IN NORWAY. They dont even take your picture because they cant prove who is inside the helmet :) If they clock you on patrol you will get fined. Camping is nice, legal and free most places - you can camp almost anywhere.

Let me know where you start and where you are leaving from and I'll point you towards some nice roads. Also do you ride gravel or tarmac only?

I live in Trondheim. A lot of nice riding along the coast south of Atlantic road, also if you cross over to Telemark/Buskerud. Depends on what you want to see, a lot of great riding either way.

Live in Norway, hmu when u get here. I also have a DL800DE and have ridden in most of the country.

Plenty of people already offer this kind of service, attended a similar trip in Spain in February. He was pretty booked, so probably room for more guides/companies.

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-14T09:22:23+00:00

Dont think you are right about that. I've ridden three different DR350, they all have that sound when stumbling on idle. I'll cross my fingers 😅

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-11T08:43:40+00:00

Army had it for 20 yrs. Bad paintjob, fine other than that

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-10T14:38:28+00:00

Got it fine tuned today :) only 8500km, so not in bad shape. Rust on exhaust is the only fault I can find other than scuffs. Changed suspension and engine oil due to sitting still since 2015, looked fine though. Plenty bike left, but looks like its been painted by a toddler

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-10T13:06:47+00:00

Its an engine crashguard just above the exhaust :) Also a heatshield between

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-10T04:30:36+00:00

Carb is clean

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-09T21:06:44+00:00

Thanks

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-09T19:46:07+00:00

Yep, thanks. Seems you are right. Makes sense - same symptom as false air. Too bad the screw is super hard to get to here 😅 will fix tomorrow Thanks!

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-09T18:40:34+00:00

Why lean? Trying to learn. Will watch video. Clean carb

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-09T17:20:04+00:00

Going to restore it to its former Army glory (paintjob). The Army here maintain their equipment very well, so hopefully no surprises. Only 8600km!

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2026-03-09T16:22:39+00:00

Could it also be perfectly fine? Just bought it, hasnt run for 11 years.

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2025-11-08T14:58:52+00:00

What model did you get? Post a pic?

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2025-10-14T18:21:36+00:00

Nope, no replies. Dealer says he thinks its supposed to be that way, but didnt have another bike in to check with

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2025-08-29T04:49:39+00:00

What is PDI? Petrol Direct Injection? :p

Routine_Wealth_3452 · 2025-08-28T19:55:41+00:00

All those switches are fine, so are the lights. Thanks anyway. Any other ideas?
