Hope you enjoy it as well. Just remember Anything is Possible.

Are thos the 96 graphics with the purple in them. And where did u find them at if so
@AndrewEdens-v2d Yep. I got them off ebay.
Did it show them coming out of Argentina jmoto i believe is the seller? I have a 96 im redoing also thanks for replying back to me helps out alot
@AndrewEdens-v2d Yep. That's the one!
Thanks again for the info! I was a lil skeptical about it coming out of South America like that glad i found out u actually got em. Great channel too ill have to show u mine when its done .
@AndrewEdens-v2d Heck yeah! Glad to help. Get that 400 looking good
Love the update brother! Let me know when you have a weekend free to collab and ride!
How's the Ktm treating ya?
@ I need to work out the float in the carb otherwise it’s been great! Had Rob Barnum do my rear shock so that back end is feeling mint!
Your camper home away from home is so cute the video is excellent love the tour.
Thanks for the kind words. We really love it.
Great video! Love the scenery
It is pretty beautiful out there.
It's like you are the only campers in the whole dessert.
That is a great set up guys! Very nice! Will make your trips much more enjoyable.
@ScottnCheryl Thanks brother! Was nice to have some amenities out in the desert.
Looks awesome, looks to be very tidy too and must have been well looked after considering it's 1999 cause it looks almost new! I have a miniature little house truck I built probably similar size to this and like you guys said its great having something with a few extra comforts for the longer than overnight camping trips. This definitely looks like it's got everything you could need. Congrats on a great upgrade 👍
@bush600r2 Thanks man! We are super excited. For a 99 it was pretty clean. We dolled it up a little before the video. I was suprised everything worked. Thanks for watching and take care!
I picked up a 98% original 2001 xr 400 with 6000klms on it yesterday 😎
@@paulschimmel1099 That a boy! Hope it treats you well!
Cheers from Hope B.C.
@@Jeffreybennett-ud2zb Cheers from Arizona!
Nice! Many years ago I went from a '92 XR600 to a '96 XR400 -- loved both bikes but once I experienced the 400, I kept that one for 17 years. What a great bike! Thanks for the memories. 👍
@juniormissle Heck yeah! Great bikes. I have a 96 xr400 and xr600. It's hard to decide which to ride. Thanks for watching!
🎉 enjoy your new camper and get awaytime
Nice video, my son and I were just there last weekend. Also, in case you've not discovered it. There is a decent size track in the back middle area. Go check it out
@@diyvintagemotorsports I haven't! I'll have to find that. Thanks for the info and kind words!
Such great spots you have to ride. Nice clear video too 👍
@bush600r2 Thanks man! Appreciate it!
I've done the same😅
Peaceful
Nice video!
Looks like a fun day!
It was!
That 400 is pretty sweet mate, i might have to try one, there's a few for sale around where i live at the moment, to bad i can't really afford one at the moment. My partner had a go on my old 600 the other day. It's her first time riding a motorbike in around 35 years or more. Last time and also first time she's ever ridden motorbikes was on her family's xr125 farm bike back when she was 12, she used to take it up into the forestry tracks with her friends on weekends occasionally. I took a 30 second clip of her riding it last weekend. It's only riding around the yard but considering it's been so long and also first time ever on a 600 i think she did well. Check out my channel to watch it you like. 👍 Handled it no problem. Might take her up some tame forestry tracks next.
@bush600r2 Thanks man! Keep an eye on them...if they have it for sale for a few months they're more willing to negotiate! Cheers!
@bush600r2 Hell yeah...she did great! I also have a video of my wife riding my xr600r. She was like..."This things a beast!" Lol
@@DestinationDesert Thanks mate. Yeah i think she handled it good too for not riding in so long. The 600 is probably a bit big for her but it's all good she's a big girl lol. Will get her back into the forestry next after a couple more practices around the sheds. I'll try get some footage next month of my mate and I riding through the base of the mountains and rivers down south. Think I'll just take the old 600 for that trip rather than the 650 this time and my mate will be on his XR250👍. No idea how to edit videos yet but I'll have a try. I have an old GoPro I can use.
@@bush600r2 The hardest part for me is recording and editing...it takes time and enjoyment away from the riding
@@DestinationDesert yes thanks I can imagine. I know how much time and effort you guys put into your videos and appreciate the work involved by you guys, it's awesome to watch cool videos done well by people like yourself. I doubt mine will be good anytime soon but it may be a slow journey in gathering better cameras and mic's and experience etc as I go. At this stage it will start off extremely basic till I invest in some better tools, maybe a drone one day in the future as I've always thought would be cool to catch nice footage with that in the areas I get out into. More so to collect a few cool memories perhaps to look back on in years to come and also share with anyone ous around the globe who's interested in the same type of thing. Will be a channel of remote hiking, camping and adventure bike riding in beautiful areas of New Zealand along with the odd bit of classic truck show footage in NZ as well. Will see how I go lol. It may be a complete flop, but I got to start somewhere right.
Hey man, good job with the vids, I’ve watched a bunch. Also have an xr400 and a handful of other bikes too.. seems like we’re neighbors, I’ve been going to MM207 desert wells for a couple decades. I’ve never been on these trails tho. This is north side of the 60?
@diyvintagemotorsports Thanks man I appreciate the words of encouragement! Yes, this is right across the 60 on the north side. I've only been in AZ for 4 yrs...hopefully not breaking any rules. 🙄
I hope you had the good grace to at least wear a mask when you bought it because that's an absolute robbery! What a bike! What a find!
@3rduncle LOL! Thanks man. I've put a fair amount of time on it now. It's been great!
Looks like a peaceful time surrounded by dem trees! Looks like you were eating healthy too. Well done my friend.
@@lostbutfound3404 It was peaceful. We try to eat as healthy as we can! Health is Wealth💵 Thanks for watching!
I too live in the Sonoran desert and have a white ram I camp out of. Enjoy those saguaros and be safe man! 🍻
@DesertR4T Thanks man! Stay safe as well
@@DestinationDesert Of course! If you’re ever looking to hit the dirt with somebody, hit me up! I’m always looking for new camping buds.
No pixalating here, fine caption of your day out! Just sold my great 2001 XR400 yesterday. Didn't get much use with me anymore, she's got a new very keen boss now! Regards from The Netherlands.
@paulh.5691 Interesting...why would it look pixilated on my end...hmmm. Nooo...why did you do that.lol. I'm sure the next owner is pumped though!
@@DestinationDesert Well, it may not be HD all the way but definitely very good. Btw, did not yet view it on a big screen.
Well you've convinced me. I'm definitely not baking any more cupcakes using Lucas or Seafoam 🧁🧁🧁

Tip from Paul on clutch. learn to ride with two fingers on clutch. feather it and drop it and hang on when it gets crazy!
@PaulClark-y5n Thanks Paul! I've been practicing, getting better but lots of room for improvement.
Bullsh...
Hi nice xr, question do you have the Ebay link where you bought the tank graphics.
@@Dgjimep I will see if i can find them

@@Dgjimep No problem. Enjoy your XR!
Checked this all the way. Nice! It does look like a lot of choices. I'm a high sierra rider myself. Granite slab and the smell of pine trees. Keep on riding... 2many
@2manyrides Thanks man! Stay safe out there!
just bought a place there last winter. will be there early nov. always looking for people to ride with.
@@motorsportsaddict8030 Reach out sometime
lol it's just that hot Arizona sun mate 🌞😆👍
@@bush600r2 I'll take that! Lol
Man you stole that thing! Enjoy it and it’s clean as a whistle. The ‘96 color schemes are the coolest in my opinion
@Itsjake908 Thanks man! Going out tomorrow for a rip!
@@DestinationDesert Giverr hell!!
The XR 400 is looking good with all the new 96 year correct color fork boots, tank decals and seat etc. looks cool. 96 year color scheme was one of my favorites. Shame about the scumbags littering through there though. Only takes a few like them too ruin it and get areas blocked off from public use. How's the 400 compare to the 600. I've never ridden a 400 only the 250 and 600 models. Always wanted to try the 400. Does it seem smaller to sit on than the 600?
@bush600r2 Thanks man I like to try and make them original. Agree 100 percent on the scumbags... The 600 is more comfortable and plush for longer rides where the 400 is more of a dirtbike feel with the narrower seat. I want a 250! What do you think of it? I need the whole collection! 😁
@@DestinationDesert cheers for the reply. Umm to be honest I haven't ridden the 250 model in about 15 years so I can't really remember it's comparison. Yet I'll get back to you on that cause I'm heading 7 hours south with my XR650R on November 16th and a good mate of mine has a 96 XR250 which he's owned for over 20 years and we going to do a day trip up into the local mountains and river beds down there so I'll make sure we switch bikes for a decent bit and I'll get back to you on that. His ones fully original, even got the original white steel handle bars. Be pretty cool alright to own a 250, 400 and a 600. well your most of the way there mate 😉👍 Do it! 💪😃
@bush600r2 Thanks brother! Safe travels and twist the throttle for me.
Extra license!😅
What camera are you using currently? Is it capped at 1080p or can it shoot 4k? When I changed the video quality in my playback settings, 1080 did look crisp if that brings any reassurance!
I just noticed i was in 1080, changed it back to 4k. Thanks for the info. I'll check it out on my next ride
@@LiveWellWhileLiving Perfect! Glad it’s sorted out! Would you be interested in joining for a Florence to Superior breakfast ride?! A couple of us are running from the river bottom bar and grill to a restaurant in superior and then filling up and running back!
@MessyRides What day n time? I know this weekend may be tough. If I can make it I'll be there.
@@DestinationDesert we are doing the Florence to Superior ride on Saturday and getting out to the Gila River on Monday!
You've barely scratched the surface out there. Some of those 2-track trails up in the hills (mountains) can get really gnarly. I can tell you're gonna love the openness of desert riding compared to MN, if that's where you were from. Some of the old structure ruins are from past mining. There's a ton of history out there! Have a blast!
@klnrgj01 Thanks man! I can't believe the endless trails out here. The hardest part is to decide where to go! Thanks for watching much appreciated
Nice tidy old 600 mate 👍. Looks like it's in it's element around all those cactus and desert country side👍 is this some place in the state of Arizona? Cheers from New Zealand PS: I've just subbed, only cause your doing videos with a XR of course lol 😉. Keep up the cool videos👍
@bush600r2 Thanks man! She is a fun ride. I do live in Arizona, It's a great place to open it up. Always wanted to visit New Zealand, heard it's beautiful there! Thanks for watching
@@DestinationDesert Yes NZ is a great place to ride as well, heading out for a quick ride this afternoon on my XR650R up the local hills where I live. I thought it was Arizona👍, I lived and worked in Arizona in 2008 for a 6 months seasonal work driving semi's, I was based in Chandler a suburb out of Phoenix. Me and a work mate rode up through country exactly like this through to grand canyon and back around through Sedona valley back through to Chandler when we had some days off, was an amazing trip incredible scenery. Actually went back to the USA in 2010 with a mate hired Harleys in LA and rode up to San Fran then around through sierra national park to Vegas and back to LA we did that over almost 2 weeks, Another great trip and scenery. Such a huge diverse country you live in. Can't wait to get back again one day. I think I'd like to buy a Suzuki DR650 (longer service intervals) over therev next time and ride from one side USA to the other spend a good month or so and do it properly, would be amazing but it's all dreams at this stage😃. You'd love NZ too for a vacation mate, if your into your outdoors i guarantee you'd love it. PS I think my favorite bike is the 600R as I've owned three over the years, they seem to suit me best I feel, only have the 94 model left now and it needs a top end rebuild at the moment. The whole XR range are great though. Wish we got the 650L over here, I see you guys can still get them new over there. I think they would be pretty close to the 600R as you'll get now days anyhow.
@bush600r2 That is awesome! I live just east of Chandler right next to the superstition mountains. It sounds like you have some memorable excersions! I've never driven a Dr650, always liked them though. I have my 600 and 400, would like to have the whole collection. Need the 650 and 250. It never ends! Lol . Take care brother and twist the throttle for me!
