- Some of the basic maintenance things I do to my dirt bikes & dual sports before or after I ride!
The Honda XR650L is the picture of versatility. Off-road, it dominates the trail with the right combination of power, suspension and durability. And when you’re on the road, its light overall weight, electric starter and excellent fuel efficiency make it great for commuting or even long trips.
While the graphics will catch the eye, what really sets the XR650L apart is its ultra-tough 644cc overhead cam engine that has torque and power to spare. And because it’s air-cooled, it’s easy to maintain. Plus, the engine’s gear-driven counter balancer reduces tiring vibrations, so you can ride comfortably for hours on end.
Monster trail or monster commute, the XR650L has got you covered.

Hey thanks I'm glad it helps much appreciated!
Great tips, tricks and video. 💪😃
Great review! I ride in what the guys refer to as "moon dust" in our valleys and was intrigued by the PC Filter Skins! Will give them a shot! Thanks!
Thank you for the maintenance tips, I appreciate your straight forward suggestions over most all the BS I read on the internet.
Glad it helped thanks for the nice words! :)
Some good info there, thanks... 🤘
Thanks glad you enjoyed it!
thanks Heddle , awesome stuff , good maintenance is the key for sure . happy new year , cheers Steve/Australia
🤙🏻 love the vids, became an avid watcher through you how to skills videos. I live in the uk an enjoy seeing the trails you have in Canada. Keep em coming!✊🏻✊🏻💨💨💨
Yes! great video Rick! I really liked your trick for chain tension checking with the fingers. I too really like the trials style tires with close knobs, I call them balloon tires cause they're like the old honda atv tires that floated over everything.
I'm surprised you have such great results with the K270s on street with such low air pressure. How fast do you ever take them, not past 100kph I imagine? Maybe you're just a genius and I'm doing something stupid... Do you rim lock the tires on that pressure?
Thanks for another awesome video man, I'm looking forward to the next one. Hope you'll doing well and keep healthy.
Yes I use rear rim locks if I'm doing tons of on road riding I go up to 15 to 20 I usually don't ride a lot of on road so I can get away with very low pressures! Thanks for watching all is good more videos coming! :)
@HeddleTowns Enduro Ride.....nice video, I really enjoying them. What front forks are those and do you have a video of the conversion? Thanks.
Thanks I appreciate that. No I do not have a specific conversion video but I did make a brief build video of the bike! Have a watch here: th-cam.com/video/OJG9_RK4uCA/w-d-xo.html
Like your outlook on oil brands...bottom line if you're using the right spec oil for your machine and changing it to the makers spec's your are going to be fine.
Exactly! Thanks!
i think im gonna try those kenda k270 for my klx230. i've always wanted to try a trials bike tire.
Great Stuff - maybe you do more on this with greater detail on each topic.
ive got 600 miles on my klx 230 and havnt greased the chain once. im also replacing the chain and sprockets this winter so ill go back to greasing it normally
Always happy to see new videos! I know it’s winter time and it’s tough to do any riding, but I’m wondering if you can give us a video about jumping. Not large MX style jumps but more practical enduro/trail riding jumps off of hills and berms in the woods. I don’t know if you’ve already done it but if you have I’d appreciate it if you could point me to the video.
Thanks for the tips!
Can't wait for spring here in Idaho! I'm definitely going to try and get out more this year on the 'ol RFS 450!
What rear tire are you running on that, thanks!!
The XR has a Kenda K270 works great! Thanks!
Keep em coming! Any static practice you do in the winter when it's too snowy?
Trials bike, this year I was lazy I didn't mount up my studded dirt bike tires!
With the chain adjustments, after you get your axle centered, to adjust, I tighten each nut 1 flat at a time and re check the slack. Your clutch cable looks really tight against the cylinder. Have you melted it yet? My 650l is similar.
Great video, how do you like your xr after its first season back together. Found anything you want to change? Seems like you have been injoying it in your video's. That is one sweet xr. Thank you for the videos
Thanks and no I believe its good to go now, I do have a spare motor I might build up one day for more power but pretty happy for now!
Hey man great information! im looking into getting another bike and want to get something i can ride on open trails, hills, and a sort of single track type application. I am looking at getting an Xr650l possibly but wanted to know what you thought about it, im 5'8" and just wondering if you would go back and buy a 650l again if you had the chance
Yes I am the same height. They are tall bikes so you have to adjust for that! Hard to beat Honda reliability!
@@HeddleTown awesome do they have some pretty good shear torque?
I know you use Rotella T6 in your XR. What weight are you using? Thanks, and I enjoy all the great videos!
I have a 93 xr650l the rim and spoke check had me cringing lol I dont really wanna blow 1,000 on rims for this old bike or buy Chinese rims 😬
Well you can get Tusk or SRT rims a set of spokes for not very much money than get a buddy or someone to lace them up for you!
