Hey such a very nice bike ! These XT's are so common here in Europe, you see them everywhere... You really should go to the channel of itchy boots at season 8 episode 1 in which she got her self a Yamaha XT600, I think it's a 1987. She has been travellin' around the world for several years now, you'd probably like this channel. Did you know that the Yamaha XT600 is a multiple winner of the grand Paris-Dakar rally race in the 70s, 80s and 90s? Yamaha as a manufacturer is ranking in the highest places in the Paris-Dakar rallies. So you're basically riding a Paris-Dakar (world's biggest Rally spectacle) winner!

So what was the problem with the bike(s) that you couldn’t ride it out ?
@lonewolfsmoto 6 ай бұрын
The kickstand jammed the sensor that kills the engine on one of the V4's - we took the whole thing apart but were unable to ever get the bike started again. (You never see that bike again because it took an additional 4 days before they were able to get that one out) All that happened around about 6:30pm - just as the storm was bearing down on us. We were 50 miles into backcountry at that point and way behind schedule. Once it got dark, that was it. After weighing our options - we decided to just leave all of the bikes there and get rescued as a group. We had a camel back and one granola bar between the three of us. It took 4 days for the trails to dry out enough to get anything beyond an ATV back out there.

Sorry, I missed this comment. I would agree that it would be a good first dual sport. Great bikes to learn and get comfortable on. Power is a matter of perception I suppose - I don’t love the feeling of mine on the highway but around town and in the dirt it’s a blast.

@@ToadSprocket-bv6sy mine oddly starts to bog down at high throttle on the highway - usually around 70mph. I’ve run through the whole engine and can’t figure out what’s causing this. I’ve had a few mechanics look at it now, and they can’t seem to figure it out either. She’s an old girl… these bikes largely depend on how they’ve been cared for over the years. I think mine had seen better days sometime long ago. It’s fun in the dirt for me , but yeah - mine seems to suffer from a curious lack of torque

@@ToadSprocket-bv6sy Thanks so much for the tips! I will check the decompression cable. I've been through the carbs and jetting thoroughly, that is not the problem. The bike has really good compression as well - but i will go back and look at that cable. Perhaps the coil...? The bike runs well... it just seems to have the power delivery of a 250, not a 600.

The yamaha xt600 here in Greece and i believe in many EU countries is considered a legend. I wanted to buy a snall enduro but cause of the lacks of parts the xt here in Greece is the only valid option. Sadly most of them are torn apart, meesed with or they are turned to supermotos etc. Also the prices have rised a bit along woth the xtx660 bit still os the most valif option as a low cost, really reliable bike

I have a 91' XT600 and absolutely love it! Just a quick note: try sourcing the original filter cap bolts, the bottom one is really peculiar and when inserted block an oil passage. If a random bolt is used, the passage will be left open and lower the oil pressure. Ask me how I know! anyway, you made a really good deal on it! great bike that can be thrown everywhere. If it werent for the emission regulations and restrictions here in Italy, i would keep it as my only bike.

Nice mood, cool spirit, clever bike. Thanks for your work on this video! With the van you have a killer combo of simplicity and authenticity. It must attract serenity! Remember your XT600 bears the engine of her dirt enduro oriented big sis, the TT600. It was not engineered for long distance full throttle in 5th gear, but for more spread usage of the range of gears: 2/3/4/5... So the 5th gear pinion & wheel are Not oversized like you would expect on an adventure long ranger. It nevertheless does the job so well it's kudos to the work of these japanese designers. But the 5th pinion is very often the first to pit & wear down on the oldest XT600 models. I would say minimum respect of the engine, oil quality and change as often as possible... I had a 1987 XT600 2KF 25 years ago, and just bought a 1984 XT600 L identical to yours as a way of stopping to miss my first big thumper so much... I am still jealous of your van though .

I have a ‘84 XT 600 and the YDIS carb works perfectly. Most people do not take the time to understand how they work and how to adjust properly so they will remove and try to adapt another setup. If it is not worn out and setup properly, there is not a better, more reliable option. I have 12 off-road bikes for different purposes (and I collect them). The XT600 is one of my faves to ride. Great video BTW.
