Had a domi myself a few years ago, Sold it before giving it a fair chance really but would love another one.
Where abouts are you from and where do you ride?
South East London mate, stones throw from both the big smoke and the Garden of England.
The old Dommy took more of a beating than first thought (me too but that's another story) so ever since getting it back on the road it's been a tail of replacing odd bits and pieces that took a battering in the off. Mainly bearings that got bashed sideways and once ridden wore loose pretty quick though other stuff has needed doing too. The forks I swapped over had a snapped stud so the fork brace was a bit wibbly so I made a decent set out of the bent, broken and rusty 6 legs that I have and added new bushes, oil and seals whilst I was at it. New lower head bearings too and top yoke as the rubbers had gone slack in the old one. The new (2nd hand) one ain't much better so I think I'll try make up some poly ones at some point soon.
Couldn't find the bike stand log so made do with a scrap pile microwave instead.
Bouncy bits everywhere! Note bent ones in the fore ground, they donated their lowers to the nice stanchions which I'd previously stuck on the bike.
It's on road rubber at the minute though I've sourced a set of duel purpose knobbers with fair tread so they'll be going on it soon. It must be about time for an MOT too come to think of it!
