Beauty! Wish I’d never sold my ‘85 350r. Loved that style and it was an awesome bike! I’ve got a 2001 250r, a 2002 650r and a 2023 300 rally, but I’m always on the lookout for that unicorn! Getting really hard to find complete, take care of her!!
Great Restoration! I had the fourthrunner to this a 1979 XL500s, the only MC I ever owned that I could reliably ride any season and only needed wear items & routine maintenance , Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall never, not once had an issue. My only regret was not getting the XR500 as after 1/2 years I turn it into an Enduro.
My first bike was a 1984 XR250R at the age of 16. It needed a ring job and I ended up seising up the engine after running it too hard. I traided the bike and $1500 bucks for a 1972 and 73 Camaro. I parted out the 73' and scrapped it. I built the 72' Camaro. It was my first car. I miss that bike.
Did the same on an 84 RFVC XR200 painted plastics but not the fuel tank paint with eventually blister Cold fuel permiating causing to lift paintwork a very nice XR500
in 92 i bought my 84 xr 500r for 600 bucks at that time i also had the 84 cr 500r man o man that was the best 600 dollars ive ever spent my buddy loved that bike i couldnt keep him off it honda should make them again
Great restoration man well done, I grew up on one of the these back in the 80s I can tell by the engine sound that it’s engine is very healthy but the exhaust noise is not what it should be. Fifty percent of this bike is its exhaust noise or should I say music. I would try and get it done with something closer to the original sound track, but all in all a great effort nevertheless. Cherish it like gold because they are getting extremely hard to find .👍🏻👌🏻👏👏👏👏
Nice job, beautiful bike. I just bought an 84 XR350R to play around with when I'm not feeling like riding hard on my more modern enduro. Lovely bike to ride, it sure doesn't feel like it's 40 years old lol
I have an 84 XR250R, since 1990. I heard the 350's had a specific heat cycle(?) problem, but don't remember exactly what it was.. whether it was a tranny or engine issue? Also, I think the factory fixed the problem. But they weren't made for too many years... just sayin'. I always wanted a 350 just for a little extra wheelie power.
can't paint plastic where I live .The cold shrinks the plastics and cracks the paint off we wet sand start at 300 grit ,and go up to 2000 grit makes it shine like new paint
I have 2 xr600r 1986 that I want restored. Time is not my friend, but I need to do it. Watching your video restoring that 500r has put a smile on my face, super job well done. Do you travel to the United States sometimes? If yes we need to get in touch
@@15LoydsCustom the music is way too loud,, use some quieter music,, I had to turn it down, for a short video it's fine but not when it's long, it ruins the video just my opinion
If somebody would ask me how to explain the meaning of MOTOR-PORN, i would show him this video. Wow, this bike is so fucking beautiful. I love old bikes and cars. I`m driving a customized Honda CX 500 from 1982. And this XR would be a great pleasure inside of my garage. 😍
Great work bro... I am also riding 8O's Honda XL Paris Dakar. For an upgrade purpose, I am looking RFVC 500CC engine. Can you tell me where can I find one in the Philippines? (Currently, I am staying in Manila)
Man, what a wow! I have the same model and it's running but I need to source some parts for restoration. Been searching online for a video like this and finally, I found this. Great job and well done. By the way, how did you manage the parts?🦾🦾
