Hitting triples on the XR600R

- Great day on the 600R today. I figured out how to lock the exposure on the GoPro. I'll make a separate video for that. I got some flexx bars on there to make the landing bearable on the triple. Subscribe and share!
You must be a Rock Star in your area!
I can hear them now, "That's the guy who throws a old XR 600 around, makes the new bikes look silly."
They are basically meant for long desert races
For sure man! There was a guy at my local track that showed up on one every once in a while and jus whooped up on everybody!
Awful Waffle sprint cars are bad boy my brother runs one
Fastest tractor rider I've ever seen
Yeah takes true skill to ride a big thumper, you can only wish hey mate? 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
@@tortor0782 He’s kidding lmao
must be a bit of a shock seeing a bike with a headlight catching you, and even worse watching a bike with licence plate passing you
Andrew Bird 😁
Seen that before. Was even more cool seeing the indicator lights being used when he was overtaking
Hahah forreals I have a 650 and I blow buy 450 they be all in shock
650s are bad ass bikes I had a xr80 then jumped to a xr200
@@teamscooterbro611 my 650r is fuckin bad ass
Every bike is a motocross bike if you're brave enough.
@Dustin Poche alot of 450 MX bikes now have ES.... ???????
@Dustin Poche Nope, e-start without battery?? :)
Only kick start on the XR600R!
Dustin Poche maybe if you’re heads still in the 90’s lol, suzuki is the only of the big 6 to not have e/s on the 250/450 Moto bikes
@@nicholashebert2929 I hate electric start. My first motorcycle ever was a xr600r... every single time I kicked it to life it felt magical.
My current motorcycle is an yzf1000r... full of cables and complicated shit... as heavy as a pig.
Trying to sell it right now.... selling the xr600r was a huuuuuuuge mistake.
Ps: two strokes with kick are super cool too!
Jumping a trail bike n motocross bike are completely different.. when I was younger my starter bike was an rt100.. once I got better I tried jumping longer distances I hurt my ankles on landing a big jump.. then my pops got me a yz80... much much better for jumping.
Nothing says “Get out of my way,” like an XR600. 🏁
You ride that thing like a fighter pilot ....Smooth and fast. I love seeing someone ride a bike that really has low end power and make it look this good. Hats off to you sir.
I Love watching Throw that XR around gives Me Great Joy seeing the Old Beast Fly. I have a 98 XR 400R I Bought brand new in My Garage see still looks new too, I have keep up the Maintenance on it and I ride Desert here.
XR600R one of the finest motorcycles Honda ever built. I’ve had the pleasure of owning 4 of them!! Still ride my 600R in the woods on single tracks all the time. From single track, to Motocross, to BAJA. These bikes can do it all. Great vid, beauty of bike!
Every guy at that track wishes they had Jacob's huge balls.
Hahahahaha. The big XR using the inside line to pass...... Freekin Awesome!
It's crazy watching something that big and heavy be graceful.
He should put on huge mirrors and a beer rack on the back.
Very satisfying to watch.
This is an extremely enjoyable watch! Raced an 88 XR200R in 1992 against a fleet of other novices on 125 two strokers and won.....it can be done! Its mostly rider. Sold my modern 4 stroke moto bike and recently purchased a 2020 KLX300R so I have that oldschool thumper style engine once again all these years later.
Imagine showing up to the track with a brand new 450 and getting smoked by a XR😂
It happened to me an old guy of about 60 passed me on a ccm in the wet I was riding a cr250. Nice old bloke , ended up talking in the pits.
Is it the rider or the bike....rider, definitely the rider! Glad YT recommended me a good one today, subbed!
Dads Domain oh it's the rider for sure !! But he does have a killer bike also !!
Wow your actually my hero I can feel how heavy that bike is just by watching this. I owned one for a year but I never remember thinking it would have kept up with mx bikes
WELL!! its time to recommission my old XR 600 after a ten year lay up ..enjoyed every minute of this video.thanks from the UK
Dang you make that old pig fly good. You make it all looks so smooth and effortless and i know it aint. Lol Looks like you had a fun day.👍
Very good video. You are showing what these old bikes are capable of in the right hands. Thanks for working to fix the exposure problem. The picture came out great! Your detractors just don't know how fun it is to thrash an "inferior" motorcycle. I just got my XR 250L and I can't wait to for the snow to leave and get it in the dirt.
Xr's are awesome. This is proof they still are. 👍
Well Scott Summers did when 9 championships on that 600
That thing is so heavy it get gets tractor traction
Best thing I've seen in a LONG time! You make it look light, lol! I never would have thought the XR suspension could handle that. Very impressive.
He spend alot on the suspension, XR 600's don't sky outta the box but are good in the woods. The XR 250R is way better when modified tho
Having owned one of these I'm thoroughly impressed you can ride and jump it that hard. Respect.
Watching you not just huck a 600R and 650L around like it's nothing, but being competitive with them too, has me convinced to get my DRZ to a track come spring. Inspiring stuff.
i use my drz only on the track xd amazing bike
Anybody can pass anyone on anything, rider skill vs rider skill most the time. Now if the riders are the same exact skill level the mx bike would be faster.
Careful out there. I can pretty much guarantee his xr suspension isn't stock
Ofc you have to update your suspension, for example I put a 450 front forks on my drz and it's another planet
Squid WithGear he said it is actually stock
I'm really glad you disclosed the fact that you hit the triple in the video title, cause I'm eating chili as I watch, and I might've spit it all over the place if I wasn't expecting that jump. Glad to see a video from you because I enjoyed some of yours & Josh's videos from Seminole Tribe years ago.
LOL! I swear I watched that video every day for a month. I was an FTR youngster, and loved riding those Seminole tracks, but they were challenging. The way you guys were clearing every jump on the SX track was really entertaining!
I remember the day I took my 86 XR 600 to Glen Helen and rode the main track. That was a brutal day. A few years later i built up a 2000 XR400 with a cr tank/shrouds/seat, gave the bike a diet and put a minimalistic baja designs dual sport kit on it. I'd ride it on the freeway from OC to Elsinore, ride the vet track and then back on the freeway to head home. Wasn't the best bike for the commute or the track, but sure was cool being able to do both.
I guarantee many viewers have bought XR's because of you. Every time I watch one of your videos I want to buy one! But I've owned one and have a badass plated drz400e now! But your videos still make me think twice!!
I’d just go back to the truck after being passed by that anchor after riding one of those myself this guy is a badass
Standard XR600 with aftermarket x-exhaust is only 120 kg.
Man this is insane haha. Grew up on an old xr100 which my grandad fixed up for me. Brother had an old twin spring 200XL too.
These things aren't meant to fly haha.
Loved watching this
I think your skills are amazing.
You take that monster 4-stroke and just sail by all these lightweight bikes.
I love watching all the egos get crushed on the guys with the $10,000 + bikes.
It's obvious that you have spent a few hours on that bike... that kind of smooth fluid control on a bike that has that much torque is not an overnight deal....now with that said the track is built for that bike .
I have moto a 600R for many years in my area best fun in winter was on ice with the old gold max ice screws....100mph on ice.
You are 1% fo shizzle.
WELCOME TO THE CLUB BRO!
You are the motivation to get my '94 ATK 605 back out on the trails. Kick start only, but a blast to ride.
I’ve said it before, but MAN THE MEMORIES! 😃 Love the ol’ XR!
Makes me miss my XR600R, these bikes are legit fun and reliable. It takes one insane individual to do this though 👍🤘🇺🇸
Respect man. Back in 1990 I had a 510TE Husy 4 stroke with all the good low weight stuff on it fast as hell and it takes a load of effort to pull off these jumps compared to the 2 strokes so pulling this off with a XR600R Respect man.
Modern day Scott Summers
That's exactly what I told him on Facebook haha.
Yup! Haven't heard that name in awhile
My childhood hero
Summers is the guy that inspired me to start riding.
@@pay2000 Mine too! he's e reason I loved XR's!
Great day on the 600R today. Decided to show up at a serious MX track and send the living shit out of an air-cooled 30 year old desert racer on stock suspension while still finding the time to casually wipe the camera lens as I pass everyone. Silencer held on with baling wire, don't really know or care what tires I am using, stock header, rusty footpegs. This guy is just awesome.
Air cooled XR rules !! Great riding mate 👍
Such a beast machine, I have my 2022 XR 650L and have only done some basic mods smog off, jetting and airbox mods and muffler, 14 tooth front, on off road rides with friends they can’t believe how I can just out pace them easily on their motocross bikes, let of the time still in 1st gear.
Great on board footage!!!! Thank you sir. Totally nuts! BUT... It would be soo cooool to see a spectators perspective of that Flying Pig.
I second that!
The motor sounds like it’s not even breaking a sweat. Had 2 XR 600 and an XR 650r loved them all but the XR 600 handled the best. I could go over anything with it. Rode all over Baja, was a blast
Awesome video! I had a 95 xr600, still one of the most fun bikes I've owned. Did a crf450 fork swap and was in love.
Such a nice note compared to modern 4 strokes.
Agreed.
I love me some good ol two stroke sound but I totally agree. It sounds so smooth.
I raced these in the 90's and they were a great bike to ride, a few little mods like removing the auto decomp, anti bog kit for the carb and a lighter exhaust to stop the sub fame snapping off and off you go. not stock suspension though as I was a bit heavy, could ride it to work and race it on the weekend awesome bike and memories. I never did the tripples though haha.
I have always wanted a xr 600r and dude you rode the wheels off that bike!! Respect bro!!!
Love the low grunt of pigs. Addictive torque ❤
That brought me such joy!!! Thank you for sharing. Smooth is fast!!!
Awesomeness!!!
I just really enjoyed seeing how that bike moves. I ride modern bikes that my friends have, but I can't get sick of my XR400.
You're a bad man sending such a heavy beast.
Mad respect
New sub. Love the old XR's. Only have an 03' 80 . Would really like to find one of the larger cc bikes one day. Great content!
XR's are amazing!! I had two , and wish i had one now!! Great videos!
You are litterly the reason I am going to try some enduro's on my 650L keep making these thumpers look easy to ride. Im from the rocky north east.
Just so satisfying shredding a bike others would never dare too. I love it.
Much respect to you man. I had an Xr600R with CRF450 front forks and I still couldn’t ride it very well on an mx track. It was just too heavy for my liking
Wow on stock suspension! Very smooth.much better video exposure! Love the 600 low end electric power and less shifting! Nice job man keep it up!
After my yesterday ride I had thoughts that my XCF350, feels heavy, and maybe go 2T again ... just RESPECT my friend !!
❤️ my '86 600XR and your fascinating video; greetings from rhineland pallatine, Germany! 🤘💪🏻🇩🇪😘🇺🇸
so gnarly to be hitting that triple on the xr, those things are tanks!
That big bore floating around the track. Glorious
Thing sounds like a John Deere tractor suspension looked good and the breaking also beautiful vintage wish more of them would show up at Tampa MX
Great riding and the xr600r is a fun beast. Mine took me all over East TN.
I know Honda has been making great motorcycles for a long time. I've heard that it's the rider, not the bike. But I wouldn't believe this if I wasn't seeing it.
You make it look so smooth and effortless
Great riding for a great bike!!! You should make a video on the bike itself. It seems you take really good care of her ;)
Glad to see I'm not the only one hitting the mx tracks on my pig!
Man this looks like an absolute blast! I should be in the market soon for a dirt bike and I had the time of my life riding around a field track I helped make with my buddies 98 xr400! I just saw a nice 96 xr600 and a 2002 xr400 for sale and am considering them. However, I love a two stroke and how simple they are! Have a shot at three bikes. 1. 2008 ktm 200xcw 2. 2001 ktm 250exc 3. 2006 Suzuki rm250. I'm a track guy at heart but know I'll be doing trails too. This gives me some hope that an old xr can also have fun at the track! Have no idea which bike I'll end up getting.
the bike is not even breaking a sweat.. low end grunt !.. impressive to say the least ! I imagine a modern day 450 feels a BMX bike to you.
You Rock ! You throw that 600 around like it’s a 125 .
Back again to my new favorite lunch break.
Fast guys on slow bikes FTMFW
That is way too many letters for an acronym. What the heck does that even mean and why couldn't you have taken a measly extra 10 seconds to write the bloody thing out so those who don't speak genZ dialect can understand.
Another amazing video. I hope others are getting the inspiration from your XR600R video's that I am. Huge thumbs up.
You are my hero! Awesome video. I wsa cracking up watching this. You are a talented rider. Nice job
I love XRs... Honda Europe sells a brand new air cooled 450XR single exhaust pipe bike... It comes with everything our old XRs had that we loved but it is a bit updated as well.
Really? How does it pass euro 4?
@@petergriffin4629 it doesn't exist, and it's watercooled, and it't not as bombproof as any XR, its called CRF450L
@@columbo1966 Ah that's what he talked about
Oh, the trusty old xr so underrated absolutly Bullet proof, never have to mess about with valve clearances every 5 minutes and a comfy seat 😁
I couldn't look away. XR650L rider.
Man some serious suspension work on that monster.
You are the new Scott Summers! 👍👏👏😎😀
A Jagger I'm from Clewiston Florida born and raised used to race 200 X's 250R four wheelers for 6 or 8 years now I purchase me a 2002 xr650r I love all the old bikes that you ride when are you going to run an xr650r the fire breathing dragon you know it's the Dominator keep up the good work keep up the good videos and be safe
Just goes to show its all about momentum. Not displacement, torque and horsepower. That and stones...biig hairy stones. Well done!
And when your done you can ride it home
You have that XR600 Suspension Dialed. Looks smooth as silk coming down on the triple.
I sent a dr350 on the motocross track in Hawthorne Nevada and blew all the oil out the crank case overflow and welded my rings to the cylinder wall! Trying to get speed through the woops to clear the jumps on the track!
hi Jacob! in the North of Italy mx circuits i run with a husky 610 te 1993. it s a happy times for a big bore D. ciao!
Man I feel like I'm getting a workout just watching yuh ou ride that tank. Awesome job.
Love it! What a torque monster.
Lol imagine being on a new 450 thinking you're hot shit and get dragged by an essentially 30 year old trail bike. Conventional forks, tool bag, and all
Psychology advantage When All Other riders know there's a big heavy beast barking at your heels.
AWESOME RIDING ON A GREAT LEGEND BIKE👍😁
Dude youre a maniac!! So after riding the old 600 and the 650L I would love to see you on the 650R to see if the hype is real!! haha
Honda needs to give you some money!
very underestimated bike the old xr600 I had the 98 model was hard to catch me in the bush ..I made the Australasian dirt bike MAG on that bike back in 02. flat out through the scrub. rode the motocross tracks on her too . still got old girl down shed ..worn out now.
Shredding a monster, impressive!!
oh jeez i gotta little dirt on my go pro lens.........allow me to wipe that off whilst i pass you on my 350 lb. tank.....on a MX track.....you my friend are an ANIMAL!!
The ultimate thumper! Well done sir
That's incredible.....your rippin it
XR's are one of the best dirt bikes ever manufactured. If you don't believe me ask Jacob and he has the ability to show you.
very satisfying watching this. Great job handling that bike man.
@@fastguysslowbikes I bet you did haha. man that's awesome. I was in aw watching you ride with that old bike. awesome stuff man!! I'd love to get together and ride on day!
@@fastguysslowbikes I'm on a 2018 ktm 450 tho lol. not old at all. haha.
What year model that 600R? I'm completely amazed as to how that bike pulls past some of the riders. I used to have a CR500 and the low end torque was awesome not to mention the speed it had but after watching this man I really am liking everything I see about the 600. Also my little girl is asking when she can have one also. Good stuff man.
I have a 2020 yz250x and an 04 xr400. Love my 2 stroke but the 400 seriously gets it on like a 450 and rides like a trophy truck
Excellent job. That 600 didn’t even sound like it was breathing hard. Yup, it’s not the arrow, it’s the Indian.
That was good run. I always found funny how some people put numbers, get latest gear and on track old thumpers like old XR600 passes them. XR little bit too heavy on track, and some really old ones like 84 xr 500 that just hard bike to ride anywhere.
It’s not the bike it’s the rider , pretty good !!
