Hi Steve,

Q:  "...had suzuki 600 dr for 7 mths,small but constant oil leak,been told it's a common problem,can this be resolved due to the smoke from the oil being burned off during riding."


A: I'm not familar with any common oil leak problems on the DR600.

Where is the oil leak? Can you provide any additional details?


This statement dosen't make sense:

"can this be resolved due to the smoke from the oil being burned off during riding."


Respectfully,
