Bikes like this makes me think motorcycles have lost their heritage almost all want to be racing

Its the sense of having a workhorse, it might not be the prettiest, or the fastest, but its loyal, it gets the work done and is reliable.

In 1984 i bought a Brand New XT 600 and still drive it👍.

I have the TT and 84 model. Very powerfull bike

What a bike, they are unbelievably awesome machines🇦🇺

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!

I'm currently building a 83 TT600 to be a weekend adventure bike. Can't wait to get it out!

Which book is Johnny Depp reading from?

So what was the problem with the bike(s) that you couldn’t ride it out ?

but it i think it do 0-100km/h in same speed like horizontaly ... and same verticaly :D it have enough power so u can be rude on trotle ...but but enough to accelerate like a big truck :D:D but yea you never now if it will start whellspin or just pull ... i ride it almost daily :) winter summer doesnt matter :D

Super cool! Please do something like this at night

I have a 1985 XT600 in australia 😁 Mikunioz . yamaha-early-tt-xt600-mikuni-tm38-flatslide-single-carb-conversion-kit . They are in Queensland austraila and ship world wide .

I had one too. 84' and put 35k on it. Road that all over socal. Very fun bike

I have an 89

Hope you are doing well wherever you are.

I own #600/800 of the Fasthouse Edition. An absolute stellar look on a stellar platform. My favourite bike I've ever owned.

Love my Sled!

I have a TT 600 -87😊😊

Looks like a blast from the past with now days Fun😊

I was working in Antigua in 1984 and shipped in a brand new XT600 from Miami because I had previously had an XT500 in the UK, the 600 was so much better in every way, it was class leader for some time until Honda got serious.

Do you think it would be a good first dual sport? Im thinking about getting one with a electric starter

Want to buy another one

That is awesome that there is vintage desert races. It make me want to rebuilt / refit my dad’s 72 TM 400 and give it a go.

Awesome!

Sick bike!! I have the regular desert sled and removed the cat. Can you please recommend a local tuner so that my bike doesn’t continue to run lean? I’m in SoCal.

I can understand I had an xt 550 Yamaha for 13 years, with front disk from the 600. Living in Greece 6 months on an island 6 months in Athens it was perfect. 93 up to 08.😊

Your right. Something about a thumper. To me, its got usable power. Power for every walk of riding. Simple to work on as well.

Uncle Rico van life!

Best people in the world right there, bikes and friends, it doesn’t get much better.

excellent quality of video!

love the older bikes they are rock solid!.. i drive a Honda Xl 600 R from 1984

Love the bike and the jacket! Which brand it is if you don’t mind👍🏻

The vibes in this video are so peaceful. Super enjoyable and informative video ❤❤❤ 8:56

Whate state is that? I have an 89 XT 600

My first bike was an 84 TT 600. 15 years old thumping all over town raising hell.

*Who makes those goggles on the second highest shelf (**1:45**)?*

What is your camera set up in this video? And great work by the way!

if the the good lord would bless me with one of these before it's too late to really enjoy it ......i'd serve the rest of my days willingly

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 .

It’s absolutely amazing. True story about true people in untruly political world. God bless all the people involved in this video🙏🏼

Awesome vision, awesome vibe and great colour! Man, can you make some tutorial about motorcycle videography and post-production pls? 🙏🏼

It wasn’t a 3 minute tour cuz the first minute was u riding

I just bought an 86 XT350 and I’m in love. Why? I could’ve purchased a 2023 300l or a DRZ.

Thinking of Buying one, i miss riding a bike and u made come to that i will buy XT600🤠

I'm really looking forward to riding back out west on my DS!

Get rid of the stock carburetor and upgrade it to something better as I have. That motor is under carbureted. It will really liven the bike up and makes it way more enjoyable to ride!

Simple bike, simple maintenance. Give it a little love and its got another 40 years in it.
