No music, just braap, amazing rider, dream area, and a beast bike, what else ...

[@autonomousindividual7780]

100% I always say the fayg music added over the gorgeous sound of a thumper is like asking why whales beach themselves. Pitiful and nobody knows why they do it.

[@bretthoffman2128]

I also think music ruins it, the music of the motorcycle is good enough for me

Years ago I had a 1986 Honda XR600R. It was bored out, had an aftermarket piston with more compression, was rejetted and had a super trap exhaust, it was extremely fast! Back then I still lived in my hometown of Tucson Arizona, that bike was perfectly suited for the desert! Great video, thanks for sharing!

I had my XR600R for about four years before I got paralyzed and it got ridden hard! 85-100 MPH through the desert was a regular ride!

I have a 95 one. Never misses a beat. They don't make them like that anymore. In 1999 during the ISDE there was a rider team USA that was struggling carrying that beast up hill on a narrow single track, he had broken the kick-start and ther was no way in hell he could start the thing. Had to give the man a push up there. Once gravity turn to his favour you could hear him ride the heck out of that thing. Not sure if he hadn't stole it, sure sounded like he had ;)

What an awesome soundtrack: Honda in the woods. Seems like nature. Long climes are about momentum, torque and conversion of power through low gearing. Thank you for sharing

[@C-ME3]

Only purest can appreciate the absolute tank-like ability of an XR. Had one years ago as a youngster, went 2 stroke, then 4 stroke and a couple years ago came back to my roots...good ole XR. Thing are fricken mules and take a beating better than any other bike I’ve owned. You can put stuff that suggest it’s gas in em, run “a” fluid for oil and they just keep going.

True 👌.

You know it’ll never break down unless you punch a hole in the sump and lose all your oil. No fragile radiators, no hoses to puncture or pop off, no complicated efi shit. Even with all the cooling fins caked with mud she’ll just tractor on, even though it’s the hottest side of the cylinder that gets blocked with mud. Love the old Hondas
