  • It's been a long time coming wet fall weather but its here now and it is fantastic!
    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.

    I have been torn between the DR650 and the Xr650 but man I love the grunt of the 650 single.

      If you're gonna ride more road, get the DR. If you want to have real fun in the woods, go with the XR. If you get a used XR, check the countershaft for wear.

      @@_Bryant.R I've thought about the DR because I'm going to do more on road riding but im taller so i felt the DR might feel pretty cramped and wanted to take advantage of the higher seat height and clearance on the XR

      ​@@zen8704if you're tall, just get the XR. I daily ride mine 20 miles to work, including 5 miles at 75+mph on the freeway. It's perfectly fine on the road.

    Hey man...absolutely love your channel and content! Awesome fleet of bikes too,I would have a similar line up if I had the space etc. You certainly help me though the winter months here with your videos!!
    I found this channel a couple years ago after I picked up a non running 93 XR650L off Marketplace and have been tweeking it along the way. It is by far my favorite bike now as ride it mostly offroad.I have learned a great deal about the bike and riding tips here and now I could use some help..I have done all the mods and rejetted the carb and it runs very good overall,its just very tricky to start cold but its tuned correctly. I just think its time to move on from the old CV carb and splurge on a Mikuni pumper or even considered an Electron carb to get crisper throttle respone and easier cold starts.
    I know you upgraded yours to a crf or similar but I am not sure which size MM to look for or adapter if its required..I am trying to keep the carb expense around $500 cnd but not too much over that if possible. It looks as though the easiest solution is just to order a kit offline with cables and adapters included but i usually dont do things the easy way!! 😁
    Eventually I will get to most of the mods you made on your XR
    Thanks in advance and keep up the great work! Cheers Pete

    Your Xr650 and riding is amazing! I got to put some considerable time on a xr600r and Xr650l from 1996-2013 and wish I kept them both I miss them ... lately Ive been riding a 2009 ktm 200 xcw for the gnarly woods in Squamish . I wish they still sold the XRO650l brand new in Canada im having a tough time finding a used one that I like.....so I bought a Brand New Drz400s, I'm gonna mod it and see if I like it close to as much as the Xr600r or Xr650l.... I dont know if the drz is gonna be a keeper or a bridge the gap bike til I find a good Xr650l .There is something special about the XR650L!

I have a 1990 DR350s Im debating on getting a XR650L or a TW200 . Leaning towards the XR though due to I already have a trail bike in the DR . Looking for something bigger to go farther on .

    2 questions, if you don't mind, of course. 1) What psi are you running your tires at? 2) How do you so effortlessly lift the front end on the powerline trail without spinning up the rear? I suppose it's the EXACT amount of throttle... Well done, as always.

      pipe and jetting kit still harder to wheelie than stock.

      Try changing the final drive ratio. Changing the front sprocket down to a 14 made a difference for me. A bigger rear sprocket has similar effect.

    Fall rides on the BRP is a special treat. Question, I noticed you have a hydraulic clutch on your bike, do you mind sharing the brand, and your thoughts on making that conversion?

    • @HeddleTown
      @HeddleTown  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It was just a $30 hydraulic clutch a buddy got from aliexpress as a test turned out it worked really good so I got one! I would recommend the Magura Hydraulic clutch for the XRs as it will be much more reliable but this one seems to be working fine! Its a simple bolt on!
