Default Thinking about a DR650?

I've just sold a DR350 and a DR200 to buy a dual sport 650. Right now I'm leaning toward the DR. Is there anything I need to be aware of? Any thoughts or recommendations? If I'm not mistaken the DR has a little lower seat height.
I won't be buying a new bike. It will be a late model, low miles bike that someone decided they really didn't need.

I rode one for my MC test. I'm 5'9" with 30 in inseam. No problem reaching ground, but maybe not quite flatfooted. Handles great and the salesman that brought it to me said it rode nice on the highway.
