XR200 with loud exhaust (sounds so good)
PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS AS IT WILL EXPLAIN EVERYTHING
The exhaust installed on the XR200 is a stock exhaust with the baffle out. My Dad got rid of the original exhaust and we had been running a musket aftermarket exhaust on it which was significantly quieter and more restrictive and the baffle wasn’t removable. These OEM exhausts are very hard to come across so we are very lucky we found one. As you can see our XR200 has a-lot of compression.
UPDATE ABOUT THE XR
About a year ago now after rebuilding the top end of the motor, disaster struck. After installing a heavy duty clutch with stiffer springs, it blew up. After disassembling the motor I found that the problem was lack of oil flow to the head or the motor. What caused this was that the shop we had the motor rebuilt at put way too much silicone around the mating surface where the valve cover clamped down onto the head. The excess silicone blocked all oil getting to the head which resulted in the cam shaft locking up. IT SURVIVED FOR 9 MONTHS OF RIDING WOYB NO OIL GETTING TO THE CAMSHAFT, VALVES EVERYTHING!!! Thankfully the only damage to the engine was a ruined cam and rockers with a lot of metal shavings through the engine. Something else that happened was the pressure the oil created to get to the head only to be blocked by the silicone caused the oil to ooze out of the head and base gasket.
What we did was got a new cam, rockers and cam chain along with any other damaged head components. We also got a full rebuild gasket set and replaced every gasket and seal throughout the motor. My dad and I rebuilt the top end yet again, installed the motor back in the bike and we were all set.
The motor fired right up like any XR should. On the first test ride we found that the bike would not shift into 1-3 gear. Again we had to pull the clutch cover and whole clutch assembly apart to find the problem. Luckily the problem was only worn out parts. The shift star and gear fork (bottle opener) were replaced. We got everything back together and hoped that everything worked as it should. Thankfully everything worked great and it ran extremely smoothly. The clutch was great and the gear changers were very smooth.
We were super happy so Dad wanted to get some new tyres for it as the old ones were shot. We took the wheels off and took them to the shop to get new tyres put on. Annoyingly the aluminium rims had taken a beating of 30 years exposure to the rain and had crumbled away on the inside of the rim. So we had to look for some rims for the XR which were a rarity because 17 inch rear tires are extremely rare. (This is just before Christmas this year). Dad kept an eye out and eventually found some genuine XR200 rims in good condition so we snapped them up and got them wrapped in some nice new tyres.
For Christmas I had bought dad some handle bars, grips, shift lever and a gas tank vent hose so we put those on and they looked great. Then dad saw an XR200 exhaust get listed and he really wanted to get it as he loved the sound of the OEM pipe. So we got it and just put it on the bike now. It sounds awesome and we are wondering wether or not it needs the baffle we bought.
This is the problems you have with old bikes is that the more you get into the more money you need to spend. Dad and I are satisfied that the XR is as good and reliable as ever. Dad would like to replace the suspension with something more suitable to the riding we do. The stock suspension is like a pogo stick so we are on the lookout for a good back shock and some proper forks. Keep an eye out for new videos of the XR in action.

      @joshputt42 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey mate. Looked into specs comparing 06 x cam to 06 r cam which I went with. The figures speak for themselves and then there is the actual difference while riding. HUGE! With the R cam I have more torque everywhere in the rpm range along with more power and better throttle response. Best decision I ever made. I ride trails so it is a perfect linear jump in performance.
