Pulling away on the XR600R!

- My morning started with new wheels, tubes, tires. I got a flat on the first lap of practice. I got a new tube put in before the race, and it went flat on the second lap of the race! My suspicion is that the local shop that installed the new tires on the new wheels installed the wrong size rim locks on the rear.
I'll get em next race!
It's funny hearing that big old engine just moan around the track while that RM screams it's guts out
2 stroke all day don't hate. don't forget that's 600 collateral cc's it took to beat that tiny 250cc smoker. it would take just another 50cc to beat that lame ass 4 stroker. try it with a KTM 380 for instance and we not even talking 500cc big bore monsters.
@@hdidane00 500cc Big bore is around 700cc for 4 strokes
hdidane00 bahahah man... I’m a 2 stroke guy at heart but 2 strokes aren’t where it’s at with motocross anymore. A modern day fuel injected 450 would smoke any 500cc 2stroke. They are easy to ride and handle wayyyy better. 500 2 bangers are honestly pieces of shit that rattle like crazy and have outdated suspension.
This thing reminds me of my 500 2 stroke you could just lug it in 2nd and 3rd
Its an 2 stroke its supposed to scream
All 3000rpm taking the lead!
And legend has it he still hasn't shifted out of 3rd gear.
i would believe second
It doesn't matter what gear is on, it keeps on trucking even in fifth jajajaj. Winning on idle
If you can keep air in the tire
I love it...
I laughed my butt off when you blow everybody away on the two smokes riding a monster 4 stroke. .
90% Rider 10% bike
very underestimated bike .
Right those 2 smoke riders with their lack of throttle control just pinning it and spinning the tire while he grips up and rolls away chugging
What? Lol 4 strokes fly by 2 strokes all the time. They have a lot more power.
CRF450R: 63 hp
CR500: 55 hp
CR250: 47 hp
CR125: 38 hp
What the XR has is TRACTION!
@@noidontthinksolol lol where are you getting those numbers
Wrong size rimlocks, or maybe a spoke head is sticking through the rim strap. That will cut a tube in no time. Awesome ride though 👌
The good ole Honda kicks ass again. Nice😁
It Rips
With a good rider of course
That big XR on that slick track was almost like cheating. It's like it has traction control.
If u ride one there no such thing with these 🤣🤣they spray or trench all over !!🔥🤘
That sucks! And such a good start too!
You could prob just run the whole track in one gear with all that torque. Sucks about the flat. XR power💪!
You are gonna start an air cooler revolution. Fast riding gets you a lot farther than a fast bike
Giving the stink-wheel riders such a great view of your tool bag and rear light is just the perfect twist of the knife. Kudos!
And the XR can ride all the way home, not even needing to stop for fuel.
Same as TT and XL s DRs.orKL (KL if you see one)
I am into old bikes. Find video of guy riding MX on an XR600R like a goddamned legend. Instant subscribe.
I cried a little, im now 62 and my first bike was a Honda XR 200 in 1984 ,and i eventually worked my way up to the xr 600. Thanks for the memories.
Nice
This is my favorite mx content on TH-cam
Thank you that means a lot.
Had a XR650R for awhile. It was a beast! Nice riding!
Holy cow you make it look so easy haha. Wish we could have made it. Stinks so bad about the flat tire(s)!
Just waiting for some funds to come in order so I can sit and wait for a xr600r to become available in my area.
Would you ever consider getting an xr650r? Its also an amazing bike. I do understand the aircooled appeal though.
The XR sounds like a Bull ! Beautiful ferocious sound!
Great, it is a hard work to.do cross with a XR 600 cc , this guy is an expert driver!! I used mine to climb hills , travel throught the jungle and highlands of Peru , the perfect bike for this trips!!!
Be so embarrassing to get stuffed by an XR 😂
Try racing in the vintage 500 class. Even the most modern 500 will qualify to race but you'll get your ass kicked by old guys with 6" of suspension and dual rear coil shock.
Great seeing that 600 leave those chainsaws behind...
Funny man it look like a joke ryt ..600 cc vs 250 2stroke hehehe the 600 can not stritch far away from that 250 2stroke...david vs goliath mennn
Dodz Barriga that 600 can hit 100+mph no 250 can come anywhere near that speed
ha my can am 500 2STROKE eats 600 xr's
There for a second I thought Scott Summers was riding that thing . Those are awesome bikes other than weight.
Can hardly wait to get my 1983 Honda Xl600R up and running. It’s in the shop for a full restoration
That’s awesome! That’s pretty funny because I was racing my 05 Cr125 everything stock accept the Jetting(I had a jd jetting kit), so I also raced a my 06 Cr250 and both of those bikes stomped the KTMs and the Yamahas. The 250 is a hole shot machine. Love how you ride an XR against other bikes.
best sounding bike around. I got a 1990 dr 650 and love it, could still never do this haha
I had a flat on the front of the XR650 I had at only around 40 mph, but the roads were snowy. Thought I hit black ice again at first. Fixed it, made it home safe. Then a week later blew the rear at 65. Now THAT was an experience...
Dam flat tire it was cool 2 see 👁 a CADILLAC leading a race. Had a couple of them 91to02 b4 4 strokes took over. in the woods it's like riding a Cadillac. Wick on ✊ BIG THUMPER
To bad about the flat, i have a very fast friend who has a garage full of trophies, he always said about it depends on the rider, some guys out there can outrun people on a honda 90. Thats what he said, it sounds like an exaggeration but the point is you rode the honda like that. Way to go. I was leading a mx race years ago, although i mostly race desert, on a 400 yamaha it. It flooded out on the whoops with the finish line in view. I started pushing it and everyone passed me. I finished last. But i know how it is.
Very fun to watch Jacob!! Good riding!
Have not used rim locks on any of my bikes over the last 20 years. On my XR650L which does road, gravel and single track hasn't been a problem running between 15 - 20 PSI. If max torque does not slip the tyre on a grippy surface like tar then it's good for me.
Had an xr600 back in the day when i was living in Australia. Such a reliable bike and soo much fun to ride. Shame about the flat tyre.
I pushed my xr 600 so hard around a motocross track back around the year 2000. I started to tear the headset of the frame. it cracked under the headset and that crack went up the bottom of the headset and 5mm up the wall. both sides .. i angle grinded a groove and welded it back up but was too scared to take it back out . brought a crf 450 the xr was a new 98 model low hrs. I had people shocked how fast I was on it. on the motocross track. was fun beating other guys on motocross bikes.
Unlucky fella that was some great riding. Big respect to you from UK .
This video is just 5 minutes of why I have no excuses on my XR600
No excuses play like a champion.
Impressive riding, especially on that beast!
My friend help run thst event. They are a good group . Great riding !
The lap times depend on the track.... But it was fun... Riding a thumper... Watching the guy next to you shifting gears and working his butt off to stay with you
I'm rebuilding one of these bad boys on my TH-cam Channel ATM. Already flipped it on camera and had to do the walk of shame!! These are getting rare and the price of them is increasing all the time.. Cheers Rick MTR
Congratulations, you made a great start and a fantastic beginning of the race !!
I raced an XR600 in the early '90s. Good bikes. Then I had a ride on a KX500 and never looked back.
Good ride husband 👍
Did he get in trouble for checking out the girl in the beginning.
Not hearing gear changes ... LOL ... gotta love Thumper Torque!
XR 600's are so freakin cool and fun!!.....love it
Not even in a lap and you’re #1 love it BbbbbbbbbrrrrrrrAaaaaaapppp
Awesome ride! Thank goodness for Fasst Flexx bars ... I can ride with out them.
An amazing run my man. You motivated me to get my monsters back in shape. #GoHonda
It was almost like you weren't even pumped up just casually riding. Lol!!
It's just a casual ride...that I want to win
@@fastguysslowbikes it was great
@@fastguysslowbikes I think you can win that one, to bad the tire went flat
JAJAJAJA QUE ANIMAL CON EL XR600 ♥ JAJAJA TE BANCO FLACO IDOLO, ESPERO QUE ESTE CON AMORTIGUADORES PARA ESA CARRERA SI NO VA A SUFRIR EL TRACTOR JEJE
You had that win. Big cid
Well that was neat. 💪Only flat on the bottom😉
I got an xr200 and i rode around on a flat tire for like 6 months before i checked it with a gauge. Guess being a novice and exclusively riding in sand affected that
Love that 600r is a tough ass motor
I was watching and I wasn’t thinking and I saw the name and laughed so hard I subbed
You would of won that hands down if you never had a flat, nice riding.
This looks like all the fun
Right on love your vids man I just want to go jump on my XR when I watch em lol
Rippin as always bud. Hope to ride with ya again soon. Ill hang behind you to get some other vantage points.
amazing pull man man! holy shit! i love this!
Thanks for the ride. I enjoyed it
Nice tank to tho guy next to you at the start lol ive been there many times if it worls it works lol
Funny your bike sounds like it’s barely running compared to the other bikes are screaming
Loves the growls of the xr!
Que moto genial!!! Profundo torque de los 90s
He'll yea brother nice riding on that beast.
wow... the camera is so stable
That's why I don't let other people change tyres for me.
Dont mess with the good ol' BRPig BRAAPPP! owning it!
Can’t beat a 4 stroke in the mud!
Best Rider + Best Bike =👍1#
i sure recognize the sound of this bike I had a xr600 man that this was heavy and there was a certain way to start it or it would flood out and get you mad as heck , it was a good bike over all , getting ready to buy another dual sport , its either the KTM 500 or the DR650 not a expert rider so i am stuck which one to get and yes I know the KTM is a much better bike but i really don't know if it would make that much a difference to me sense i am not a expert rider just a good rider.
If you haven’t already made your purchase, might I suggest you go with the xr650l. Take my word for it, (and I’m sure many others) you won’t be disappointed. You can grab a 2021, or 1993 and anything in between, and you won’t regret it.
You were killing it.👍👍 .
I would love to have seen that XR in real life clearing the big finish double
I have seen you flat so many times. All I can say is Tubliss!
Tubliss would fail too if the rim locks aren't working.
@@fastguysslowbikes With tubliss you greatly reduce pinch flats and you no longer have the variant of rim lock size. Your problem, assuming you are correct, is that the tube tears at the valve stem or other weakpoint.. You dont have the same mechanisms at play. Then there are the moose options too. Either way good luck in whatever you decide.
Man you were doing so good too, next time brother
Honda really nailed it with the XR! Greats skills mate :)
Man I want 1 you handle that heavy bike well
Damn well done.
That bike has more power and more TopSpeed than any bike on the starting line
I love the vid..was it slowed down..👍
PS would love to see that motor stuffed into a CR frame or any modern dirt bike that can give you better suspension and turning ability have a good day
Sometimes I think about the opposite. I'd love to stuff a cr500 motor into this cadillac chassis.
@@fastguysslowbikes you had a cam on the steering head where when you turn the wheel it would give you the kind of rake that you need and then when you turn the wheel back straight it will give you stability I know they've made these before I'm talking about making a homemade one with a steel frame
Wow. That was easy for the xr!
In the early. 2000s XR600 . Guy's at work. In construction. Would be walking about riding. They all knew I was a rider. They talk crap. all day long. So I got them to go out . ,. I said. Will you wait for me at about 5 MILES out , there's a spot to regroup,. Laughing ,. They never saw me again ,. No more bullshit at work after that , hahahaha. ,
Not sure what Honda was thinking when they killed the XR line. I guess they were too reliable and too much fun.
you drive soo fucking smooth and fast desired i cold drive like you !!!!!
Awesome ride,gutted for you,I’d ask the tyre guy for my 20 bucks back😂
Love how the XR650L/600 u dont need to change gears.
not when you have like 40lb ft of torque at 3800rpm
Just channel your inner Scott Summers and send it! 🤘🏼
That was a neat video. Uh Oh ! Another flat ? So sorry. But I did enjoy the video. Barry
nice, a XR on a good rider hands can still win ( the motor at 50% very relax) jejeje
Tyre popped with spokes coming through rim when rims bending
We found out it was some of the belting in the tire showing. Whoever installed it was a little rough.
Wow is this bithlow? OSW? they definitely changed the layout.
Tampa mx
@@fastguysslowbikes ahhhhhh OK thanks for letting me know 👍
That's one sweet track.
Man this is awesome!
If you were just listening to it, it sounds like a Farmer lazily riding it around checking on his cows
Ride my XR650R daily.... did ya crank those locks tight ? Mines got enough torque to spin the rim if locks aren’t cranked
XR great bike..👍😎
Sounds like you doing a bit of Sunday green laning... actually kick arse race winner beating field of 20 smokers!?!
bummer, 2 flats! sheesh.....
