Bought myself a 96 DR650 just before Christmas.To cut a long story short the previous owner managed to melt a good part of the back of the wiring loom while welding the exhaust.Being an honest bloke he didn't tell me and the first I learnt was when the headlight started sending morse code messages to bemused motorists.Taking the seat off revealed a horrific mess of bodged-up spaghetti with bare wires and some really nasty "repair" work.
I'm not sure which models were sold in N.Z. so not sure if anyone here can help but here goes.I've found a good condition loom very cheap from a 94 DR650RSE,this is the model with the twin exhausts and fairing,same style as the Honda Dominator.

My bike is newer and a different model(think it's an R) but looks to me to be the same apart from the exhaust and plastic,mine has a single silencer and small cowl like the later models,both are the older 640 motor rather than the later 644.So...anyone know if the looms are the same?
