Which bike do like the best xr 250/400 or the kdx 220/250

[@Benjicmm]

You don't water a cactus.

[@timcoppinger1361]

David C good riding. buy a drz 400 e. Do some suspension work and go for it. You ride really well and are proof that it’s about the rider not the bike. Especially these days where they are all good, the bikes that is.

[@GeneralNOH]

@@eyesthatseewillsee7457 Depends on what riding you want to do. The KDX250 was never really a success and has its issues. However; a KDX220/200 will handle better and make similar or more power than the average XR400 whilst still weighing less than the XR250. On the other hand The XRs have amazing tractor torque and are bombproof, they will lug up anything, you don't have to rev them as hard and they will do road speeds all day long and use less fuel doing it (No mixing gas either). Worth mentioning the KDX is also very torquey and luggable for a 2 stroke and is probably the most reliable, low maintenance 2 stroke ever made. You can't go wrong with an XR or a KDX. If you want to do enduro/technical stuff the KDX is an easy winner, if you want to do more open trails or dual-sport it, XR wins. Both bikes have cult followings and are getting more expensive day by day (for good reason). Both have heaps of aftermarket. The KDX is quite easy to get more power out of with simple bolt-ons and jetting, the XRs not so much but they respond well to big bore kits. When I'm finished cleaning up my KDX I will be getting an XR400 for dual-sport/adventure or a DRZ400 which is also a great option but not quite as good as the XR offroad and even heavier.

No BS, no filler, and you approach timelines and budget constraints in a very calculated, logical fashion. And...you're a heck of a rider too!

Dude I loved every second of this video, the XR250R was my friends bike in Australia that he gave to me to hunt the outback, I rode that baby for two years through haggered shit, spider attacks, kangaroo attacks and massive crashes. To see you fixing one brought me close to tears from my memories of OZ...bought the t-shirt instantly and earned a sub immediately...you raced well brother xx

Most "Bike builds" I see are just people spray painting stuff and throwing expensive parts at them. I have yet to see one of the builds include simple maintenance like greasing or replacing bearings. Thank you for doing it right,

Hell yeah! You're an XR legend man, pretty sure you are single handedly responsible for a lot of guys owning xr250r's after making such good content with yours. I'm happy to see it back in action, even if it was only a short lived return; hopefully you can get it back to prime ripping condition sooner than later.

The Air Cooled XR250 is alive and well in other countries with very little updates. Unfortunately Honda dropped it in the USA.

[@leamartintorres]

@@justonpreble4083 in south america we always had the "XR 250 Tornado", which doesn't even have rear disc brake

[@justonpreble4083]

@@leamartintorres look up www.polacomotos.com.br these guys are fanatical about the XR250R, CRF250F, and CRF250F... Also, honda does make an XR450R air cooled bike witch is so awesome but its not available in the USA where I live. We have the CRF line up of trail bikes up and then the CRF line up blends into liquid cooled high compression bikes which I'm not a fan of.

[@justonpreble4083]

@@leamartintorres I bought two brand new XR250R here in the USA. 1 in 1993 and 1 in 2005. Both had rear disc brakes. Those bikes were awesome trail bikes. Suspension was lacking if you are into motocross but in the desert and mountains those bikes dominate... The tornado you speak of is not sold in the USA but might share some parts but sounds like the XR250R befpre it was discontinued in the USA was a little more specifically tailored to hard core desert and mountain Enduro racer requirements in the USA. It was lacking on Power for some riders which is why the XR400R bike was sold in the USA for a few years but was ultimately discontinued also. The XR650L is still sold here but it's super heavy... But it's bullet proof. I love Honda but feel they have neglected the next generation of riders. Also I fond it hard to believe its cheaper for honda to make a nike with drum brakes vs superior disc brakes. Decisions like that make people so disappointed. Also where is Honda R&D on making electric dirt bikes like KTM. They could buy batteries from TESLA and make a killer line up for all ages.

Iv owned my 96 XR 250 since 98. It still runs good as new , all iv ever done to it is change plugs and screw the back shock spring down as the years go by. Older i get the heavier i get. Removed all the restrictors and that made a huge diff power wise. Its had the absolute hell thrashed out of it. Got rid of all the lights etcc to lighten it up. Love the old girl. Ya cant kill em. Great vid mate.

[@64maxpower]

I bought a fresh 88 xr250 to beat ktms with myself. I got xr600 forks and a 32 flat slide. People think you are at a disadvantage on a xr250 but I think they are easier to ride fast in many situations. You rode amazing. 6 hours with no training is brutal

Sorry to hear about what happened, but you definitely did what you could to salvage it all. Looking forward to that rebuild, and more racing.

[@Papparratzi]

Fun experience there. Haven’t raced since 95 and it was the Chaparrall 6 hour at Glen Helen. Like you, I experienced mechanical issues, in my case they started at lap three. My power valve actuator unscrewed on my YZ 250. What happened after that was inconsistent opening of the valve which made it turn on like a rocket. Was able to salvage a third place but in the back of my mind I know I could’ve done much better had the power valve been functioning properly. Thanks for sharing your experience I enjoyed it. Obviously we all learn each time we enter a race like that. The main point is to always have fun. I had fun watching your video. cheers take care

Dude! Super happy you were able to get a video out again! Thank you... I’ll definitely get a “rusty” shirt next 🤘

I bought a 1983 IT490 from a buddy for $300. Put a couple more hundred in it and raced vintage class in hare scrambles. Vet 40 plus (senior) also raced this class. A lot of those guys were pretty fast. It really frustrated guys on new $10k bikes getting passed by a crappy ass IT490. I've since upgraded to a 95 CR500. Anyway, I love your attitude and riding motto! Keep twisting that throttle.

I’m 71 years old, raced WR360, WR 390, and WR430’s in the day, and a few years ago bought a mechanic owned 1996 XR400R. What a hoot! My WR430 was the best Husky I ever raced. I wish now I would have been on the XR400R instead. My racing days are over, but my woods riding isn’t. I thoroughly enjoyed the video! How do I order some shirts?

Another fine video! That is some great riding, especially on an old XR. I've got one of those, and I can attest that it is not made for what you put that one through. They are great trail bikes, but the suspension is really too weak for all of those big jumps. Excellent job wringing every little bit of performance out of the old girl.

Kevin: did you land on a ‘better’ carb option for your XR?

@@shanefoss1731 hi Shane, no not yet, so far I have rejetted standard carb, smoothed out the rough welds in the exhaust headers, de-snorkled the air box and installed k&n filter, removed baffle from exhaust. Have tested it in a top speed run against exactly the same model but stock and my one has a very noticeable difference, she does run extremely sweet and starts 1st kick.

[@shanefoss1731]

@@gsoup7850 I have done all the same using my stock carb and have been very impressed with the responsiveness and slight power bump. An alternate carb has been a hard sell for me. Alas I did purchase a pumper MIKUNI TM33 and failed miserably to get that to work much better than my PD. In fact the TM33 would not clean up at WOT as I moved through main jets. I intend to revisit that TM33 someday, but my PD works really well yet. Where did you land with your PD setup? What main/LS? Other changes you liked?

Look forward to seeing what you found with getting it back up and running.

[@MrDuhfactor]

Holy cow dude!!! I think you did great!! Bike sounded strong to me, well done man.....

[@64maxpower]

I'm pretty impressed. You did a lot in a little time. Especially a carb switch. That was a big bite to take right before a 6 hour race. Finishing a off road race that long is an achievement on a bike that runs right. You did it compensating for a floppy foot peg and sticking floats. I think you can take a little more credit for your finish than you are giving yourself

[@cjjeepercreeper6535]

Hey! Im 6'1" and would like to build a awesome honda XR and I am stuck between getting a 400r or a 250r. Any advice on those two?

Where I live there is an unlimited amount of fresh water. Never heard of a water meter in a home until I was in my late teens. I don't know where you live but I would trade places with you - Looks like nice weather!
