Why put music on this, we want to hear the bike for gods sake
The thilthiest kickback I ever got was from that dinousour . Felt like broken ankle . Probably was .
Großartig! Von den Yamaha Modellen habe ich auch welche. Beim 2ten Anschauen habe ich dann auch die Transalp entdeckt, die da nicht reinpasst! 😂
You also probably don't know about the resistor in the spark plug boot that really causes a weak spark & causes a lot of the hot start issues. Check it out. Real easy to unscrew the brass retainer in the cap. Change it out for a 16 penny nail cut to size & deburred/sanded smooth. Check your spark before & after replacing that resistor. I've got a 78 & 79. 78 bought new in 78, 79 around 95. Raced a 77 in 78 to 85. Been running that nail since 78.
You make the standard mistake when starting the TT/XT 500 - any year (76-81). You are kicking it like a two stroke! You stab the kicker down & lift up immediately. These engines are designed with a ratchet release mechanism built into the kick assembly. Kick it down & lock the lever against the foot peg, it CANNOT kick back. Let it up when it's running or stops spinning. Look in the service manual/parts pictorial, if you even own one & you will see the ratchet mechanism. This is important to follow to prevent injury. Pgs 15, 16 & 17 in the original 78 owners manual is very descriptive.
Wish I had kept mine doing wheelies was so easy to balance and keep the front wheel in the air for as long as I wanted too👍
1986 with the gold rims. 😍😍
Good video!
Heaven
Does someone make a kit to make a tt500 street legal ?
@@jamespolucha8790 there is a lighting kit from KEDO with loom and ll the lights
Beautiful bike!!!
So nice Video!!!
Muchas gracias!
I have a Yamaha SR400 from 2016, bought it with 7300kms and it already has cam wear and fcked up cam bearings. After fixing it i'm selling the bike... I thought it would be reliable but after 3000kms started to make a clacking noise and well..apparently its a rare problem from a defective cam from factory that lost some kind of metal treatment and became "smaller"...the weirdest engine problem i've ever heard on a motorcycle. 😭😭😭
Goeie video
Nice
What about the electric start kit ?
Keep up the good work
Hahaha nice!
I own a 88 TDR250 and im looking for a XT600 do u got any tips
@@strandschep5749 sure! Any questions message us on Instagram
My 84 XL 600R will never start cold without giving it some throttle. I'm assuming this is a carburetion issue, always starts first kick once it is warm, but is always a PITA on the first start of the day.
Prob something with your idle jet, choke or false air
@@bringthekickback Thank you for the reply. I will look into it when I have a chance, it has been plaguing me for a while but I just have too many projects and not enough time. Appreciate your input. Cheers!
XR600R is just THE Dirtbike, people don’t understand it cause they don’t own one
You didn’t post the recommended stator in the comments ;)
I like the carpet, nice touch 😅 Looking myself 1VJ to restore
I used to use my 77 XT500 in the beach races, I got dragged of by CR 500's but it was great fun for powering drift slides coming out of the corner
Awesome videos Wes! If only school was like this, I would have been a nerd haha.
Cheers buddy 🤙
Love this!
That's one pretty XT you have there!
I got the 1981 model brand new and my older brother couldn't start it to save his life. I would get it started, explaining each step as i did it and he would get on and ride off. Later he would show up pushing it and grumbling that there was something wrong with it, and i would start it first kick. I absolutely loved that bike. 😂

Hey! Ive been interested in getting a honda XR600R (after getting my licence) for a while now but as i'm a beginner i feel like it might be a bit too much. do you have any recommendations for similar bikes that are more for beginners and that are easilly/cheaply available in the Netherlands (its sounds like you're from here) Thanks in advance!
Hé man! we made a video about off-road motorcycles for beginners. Try out a XR250, NX650, XT600 or XT350
@@bringthekickback Ahh i didn't know! Thank you!!
And now I need an XR600R in my life.
If it doesn't start right away or if you accidentally goosed the throttle. let the bike sit for a while before trying again.
Bring it on!🤘
can someone explain lyrics? "I'm trying to be romantic I hit it from the back". What does it mean to be romantic by hitting from the back? I'm also not a native speaker so not even sure if I understand the slang for "hit from the back".
It might be sexual but it’s unclear
Quality
…on a vintage… skilled!
NICE one
Just need a filter like sepia or vintage to make the film looks like a 70's one
My first bike was an XR 250. Great bike.
Don't know about South Africa, but the aluminium tank was used from 1978 in North America. An engine modification in 1980 included larger cylinder head cooling fins, larger intake valve, and a revised oil seal position on the crank shaft. The 1980 U.S. model used CDI ignition, Canada retained points ignitionl, the carburettor also came with an accelerator pump, and forks had a leading axle. Have owned several over a 30-year span, a 77, 78, 80, and 81, probably the most reliable motorcycle ever, adequate both on and off road, and very forgiving when approaching its limitations.
What carburetor are you using? I'm looking for one for my SR500
Now stock. Have had MIKUNI FS41 on my others
I wish the electric start kit was more affordable. $1500 USD for an electric start is insanely pricy.
Yep, it’s that they’re the only one… a new bike is more expensive though
Somewhere out there is a TT500 with a set of air canister forks from a YZ250. the back had an extended aluminum swingarm with Curnutt shocks. This was my dad's bike, my sister desert raced it. Some motocross also. Looking back she must have been in incredible shape. My bikes were almost stock except for a different muffler.
Sounds very cool
My dad had the white tank dirt bike model. Nothing ever broke but it was new. The exhaust on your video, I've never seen this before. Usually we used an uppipe with a super trapp muffler. I had the black and silver enduro and the orange tank dirt bike model. The front brake is small and doesn't do much. Its a heavy bike and if you catch some air it lands with a mighty thud. Its a wheelie riding machine, I could go through all the gears. So much fun.
You’re down right! From the factory it was a super reliable bike. It’s just because these bikes are used how they are supposed to for 45 years you’ll find flaws. This exhaust type was only the ‘76 model. Now a days the exhaust only already costs 1,5-2,5k
properly tuned twin carbs are easy to start and deal out great low end torque with a rocket ship top end. love the twin carbs, they are also a shorter stroke motor making them more rev happy.
Nice channel happy I found it, you cover more details of the bike compared to other channels,. Can you do a comparison between this yamaha and the honda xl600? I'm especially interested in how easy accessible things are on the honda xl600 compared to the yamaha to make maintance easier.
Thanks my friend. IMO Yamaha is a lot easier. Biggest reason is the availability of KEDO parts.
Bello il cupolino rally modern classic, io avrei messo un faro tondo invece dell'originale rettangolare.
Would you not swap the drums for disk brakes?
Def! That’s mod pack 10
nothing really new but very nice anyway. thanx! 🙂 not too sure about every mentioned detail (not my language) but i prefer real 12V.
Thanks! Yeah 12V is definitely mentioned🤙
