Well now I've done it. I couldn't resist to urge to pick up one of my favorite past time bikes. The Honda XR80R.
Believe it or not this was the first bike I ever learned to ride on!
Join me as we rip into this 1998 Honda XR80R to see just how beat up it is and with less than 24hrs to get this thing ready to be packed up for a trip south. We definitely have our work cut out for us.
Discover just how much this XR really needed to get it ready for whatever I throw at it.
ENJOY!

Uncle Cody brings a dirt bike to the party. This is how legends are made and the proud status of "favorite uncle" is achieved. Well done sir. 👍
BINGO!! You nailed it 😂
I bought my daughter a CRF70 from a teenage boy it was caked in mud no rear brakes valves needed adjusted grips were almost gone. We cleaned it up tinkered with it a little and threw a few new parts on it and she loves it. All she wants to do is ride.
I learned on a XR75. They were great bikes.
I’m glad you get to fulfil your childhood dreams man, that’s awesome
Watching these rebuilds is pure therapy
That is not oberkill it is pasion and dedication vwry admirable. I reatore xr too, and i watch other videos to see different ways to doing things, good content.
Thanks man!
Nothing like a man plus the love for his bike...🏍️
Very cool! Great you’re getting the young family members on two wheels. You’ll be a hero to them.👍✌️
I just picked up a 99 XR80r today for $70. Was browsing Facebook and saw it laying in a pile of scrap, original plan was to save the frame from being scrapped but then I found out the guy had most of the bike stored away. Wound up buying the whole thing and have been putting it back together. Sadly a few things are missing but it’s 90% complete, even had new chain, sprockets, and a meaty Dunlop geomaxx. Hope to have her back up and going soon
Wow. Thanks for this. If Uncle Cody decides to bring two xr80s to next year's family gathering (another xr80 mom could ride safely?), please include (even for pay, as that's how this platform seems to be evolving) ALL the teachable moments as you go though them. Great bikes, great memories both old and new with these machines. Thanks again.
Glad you enjoyed it man! The XR is still kicking strong 🤙🏻
The clean up part was satisfying to watch. Btw the motorcycle course is great. I went through most of it, skipping some videos. Ton of useful info there. Thanks Cody!
Cody, i want to say i like your videos a lot. I was a mechanic too and in my garage lives a 09 B-King, 18 Africa Twin DTC and a 94 GL 1500. I also like Videos where old Bikes get to life again like in this case. Thanks for your Videos.
Best little bike ever produced , ever .
So good!!!! Great vid, would love to see more of these old dirt bike restoration/overhaul type vids!
Thank you for this video. I'm currently restoring my own 81' GS750 and it's been pretty intimidating. Seeing you crush this helps boost confidence!
Love the look of your bike!
Thank you Cody, i've been eyeballing an old RM250, inspired now, and one of my dogs also can't go anywhere without his toy, great to see, love your work, cheers mate..
22:47 love how you were watching football 😂
It lives again cody. Well done. I just bought a 1996 XR200r. He wanted $2500 I got it for 2k. 2 owners. Normal dirt and scratches for age but I think it had not done a lot of work. Engine is imaculent , needed tyre , chain, fork seals, oil change. greased rear shock likages but didn't need it. It is a tidy unit. I was lucky. A Keeper. Thanks for doing some XR stuff. Everyone goes on about CRF/wrf high performance 4 stroke but they don't last as they don't look after them. The XR's don't rev as hard but will still be going long after the others. I remember the first XR75 coming out in 1973 ish.Like you I wanted 1 but by the time I could afford 1, I was too big for it so started on bigger xr's. I love them Even at 60y/o. PS Tell your dad to go to hell, He aint riding it. That will teach him not to get you 1. Keep em coming . Thumbs up from Australia.👍
Broooo I need an XR200 in my life!
An excellent video to see an old beat up bike come back to life at the hands of a Mastero . I have learnt so much from your tutorials step by step for my 2003 VTX 1300. (It is like monkey see monkey do). Thanks . Stay Blessed.
Good show Cody
Nice video. Always enjoy them wether or not it's a video about teaching something.
Great video. I have an xr 100. They are timeless.
This was an absolutely fantastic video! I can't believe how much work that needed and what piss-poor condition it was in however glad you have a great working bike now! That was a very enjoyable video to watch! Thanks so much for sharing and hope you ended up having a great getaway and trip with family! Ride safe brother!
The trip was amazing and left some memories with everyone! Pumped you enjoyed the video man. Thanks for stopping by
love your stuff, thanks
Dude I got the same story you do. Always wanted a bike but nobody would let me have one and I couldn't afford one but now I have several haha. And I have an XR80 for my son but I don't have the knowledge that you have. I actually enjoyed watching your video.
Absolutely brilliant video as usual Cody with wall to wall common sense advice and instruction. It's no surprise you and Matt are buddies
😎 Thanks man. Matt’s a good dude!
🎉 great work
I enjoyed this video. Thank you
Thanks man!
It's nice to know I am not the only guy who uses three spoons on a tire!
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Great content. Thank you. :-)
Just got a little honda qr50 for the exact same reason. Might try and get my partner to learn on it once I get the thing going (4 other projects giving me the side eye.) 🤣
XR love You need a good stand for changing the tyres. Rolling on the floor is hard.
Fact!
Just got one of these for my kid. It’s probably the junkiest one on marketplace😂. All good though. This video is a great guide!
Love your videos….You could have bought a brand new Honda CT70 clone (Icebear Champion) for 1500.00….and had fun playing and working on that….
You diid wesome.
I have two CRF80's for my boys. Perfect bike for them to play around on at 9-11 yr old. I always thoroughly clean it after every ride and trying to teach them that a well as that 15 min of work go such a long way w/o having the bike get caked up with mud, dirt n' grease after it sits for weeks between rides. Of course I have some OCD with having a clean bike, it does go along way with a good cleaning after every ride before putting it up. You may not have recorded it but did you check the valve clearance? Enjoyed the video
Looks like my house dogs running with you
de-glaze the rear brake or replace the pads? fun video. love these 80s
Replacing is so much easier lol but I’ll cut some grooves and sand them a little to get some more life out of them!
I just bought an 1985 xr80 for $200. I pulled the head and it quickly became a $1000 bike with all the damn repairs 😂. Those cheap bikes are always the most expensive
DING DING DING hahaha. Ugh I know the pain all too well.
Cody, what media do you use in your cabinet? Walnut shells, sand?
The teaching experience was there ! How to do basic Maintenance Keep up on the Maintenance / keep it clean so you can identify problems / or potential problems, and having a safe bike for family to learn how to ride.
Would you let your family ride that bike in the condition you received it in?
Heck know I wouldn’t have let them. I would have been embarrassed rolling up there with it like that!
Hello Cody, I have an issue that perhaps you can help with.
I have a 2009 Yamaha WR250F which just had a bottom-end rebuild. We replaced the crankshaft, cylinder, and piston with brand new parts.
After reassembly, we went to start the bike and after a few minutes running we noticed that the oil tank was bulging and then burst open right under the fill/drain plug (see attached photo). We welded it shut, then started the bike. After leaving it running for a while to break in the new piston and cylinder, the oil tank burst open again, this time through the seams on the side.
We are stumped as to what can be causing such a build up of pressure in the oil system, enough to make the oil tank bulge, then burst. I should add that we did not overfill or exceed the oil capacity of the engine, in fact, we underfilled by 200ml.
Can you or anyone offer any insights?
Much appreciated.
I have a xr80r 2003 and somedays it starts first kick others I can’t get it to start. Sometimes it’s pops. Please help what’s wrong with it?
Dude i need ur help i have 1 wire xoming out a 1986 xr 100 and dont remember how to wire it does it need cdi does that 1 wire go to coil? Am i missing a condenser???
I can't believe he stopped up the carb bowl overflow line? That's really dumb. When you do that, the gas is going right into the cylinder (and maybe the airbox) mixing with the gas.
Exactly!! You can’t fix stupid but I suppose you can try plugging it 😂
Where do you order your parts from?? Like the carb?
where did you buy that carburator?
👍🏻
A cool bike like that is better than the $1400 imo.
Agreed!!
For the brrrrrap obviously
BRAAAAAP
Look if you would only buy an enclosed trailer that you can make into a mobile workshop you could work while others drive.
Hahaha
Seen too many of these left to careless owner's, rung out, jury rigged and left for dead, only later to be pawned off as immaculate conceptions of genius design philosophy gone utter awry. Great job getting her back in trim.
Hahahaha immaculate conceptions of genius design 😂
Also known on Facebook market place as “Runs perfect, starts first kick, nothing is wrong with it”
it never supersizes me with 2nd band bikes what some stupid people do to them lol
👍👍👍😁
lesson ? do not buy someone else's issues
Also a good lesson
