Nothing like an XR250R, best trail bike ever made in my opinion. Of course I'm biased since I've had mine for 18 years! It never ceases to impress me, no matter how nasty the terrain is or how steep the hills are, it's like a mountain goat!

Very nice video and great music! Love the XR's, especially the 250. I have a '99 XR250R that I bought new and still ride to this day. I don't think I could ever sell it because there would probably be no chance of ever finding another one in good shape. The bike is like a mountain goat in the mountains, and climbs anything with ease. Mod it with a good silencer, jetting and uncorked airbox, and these bikes have great snappy power off the bottom and midrange.

Have run xr250s for30 plus years. I can't put in words how good these bikes are. Reliable, ridable and inexpensive to own. They are as close to an idiot proof bike as there is. Not suggesting idiots should ride them, but from novice to well-worn riders these are just great bikes.

Not the fastest or the best handling but high quality tough as nails trail bikes that will take you wherever you wanna go and bring you back home year after year they are reliable pretty fast torquey and just a good ol bike that you can beat the hell out of and they last for years and years.

I have one not far from home, '99 250. Gotta say price on old bikes are crazy, the guy wants €1600 for it. Kinda tempted to go and check it out, but on the road I ride 1000cc... kinda worried the 250cc would be too small. I also owned a few 2strokes 300cc... so the 250 4 strokes might really be too small. Worth the risk?

XR 250rs are great bikes ( and you are a good rider also) I raced an 83 back in the 80 s in ECEA rock runs ( B rider at the time) and usually either won my class or came in 2 nd, Also raced in certain snotty D6 hare scrambles and did well there also ( amateur class before turning expert) I regret to this day selling that bike. Although not competitive in most situations against the 2 strokes back in the day , they never broke, great bike.

For a Guy that Hasn't had Too Many Years Experience(back then) you've Shown to have Good Natural Ability - Doing Things on the Old Xr Guys of Much more Experience Wouldn't or Couldn't Do- Like the Log Hop- I can Wheelie the Front over But Not Confident Bouncing the Back Wheel over at Speed- I Think It would End Bad - Like Compressing the Back Shock With Rebound Pile Driving me on My Head!

@@purebloodheretic4682 Thanks mate. Yeah a beta 450rr 4 stroke. It's almost everything the xr is not! Best machine I have ever ridden but will come a day when I will want my cash rather then a fancy suspension and exesive torque! But for now bit more fun. Only way to do those techniques is to fall many times trying till we get it. The learning process. When you stop falling, you've stopped learning. Moved on to applying that attitude to other more important things! Being like Graham Jarvis is cool, but for me personally that aim was not worth the number of times I would need to get back up again. A family and passion filled career are far more worth the falls and the energy to get back up from. So have become content cruising! All the best mate, cheers
