    There are 2 types of riders...
    Those who spend tens of thousands on brand new bikes trying to make riding as easy as possible for them to be competitive
    And Those who adapt their riding style to whatever bike they have and make what they have work for them.
    Keep doing what you do! You have all my respect ✊🏻

    Some mods that are common for hard uses, and glad to see that the suspensions are sufficient for racing (as I said to my mates: XR's got the best OEM suspension system) , but some loose bolts on sprocket are not serious man ! Even I agree about this part of the bike is the XR's weakness, as there is no "shocks hub" for the rear wheel. Wow, here in France, never seen a bar as yours... at its time, just use some Renthal as usual, and they were enough sufficient on my 600XR (mostly used for long lasting trips on dust, sand and gravels roads)

    I had a 94 xr600 and loved that bike. With the low-end power and 10lb flywheel I could out climb all of my buddies on their new 450f's, that thing just hooked up and got traction. I loved the supple suspension for off road, but can't believe the jumps you are hitting with it, mine would bottom out every time the wheels left the ground. Your channel is bringing back good memories, keep it up!

    I have a extremely old yamaha xt250 that I slightly modified for offroad riding only... all I did was install some full knobly tyres, got rid of the lights and speedometer even took the kickstand off aswell as the horn, slapped a motocross number plate on and some fresh grips. Makes me feel like a superhero when I pass people on their new race bikes with the pile of crap I ride.

    I just picked up a 1998 XR600R last week. Was curious if you run the stock gearing? Also are the Flex bars any higher than the factory bars and do you run risers? Last question what wider foot pegs are you running?

  • @allistairneil8968

    Jake, you are a lucky son of a gun. Nope, it's not all the hot bikes in your shed. I just wish I had a wife/gf who was OCD about dirt bikes. Also, I loved the mods but I'm not really convinced such a light bike needs those bendy bars so high up. Might put them on my XRV 750 marathon because it is really heavy when I fill up the tanks and it's significantly higher than stock.

    As I am not so familiar with the XRs, are the stock hubs rigid, too? Or do they have damping elements between the actual hub ans the sprocket carrier? That would explain the weight difference and also the additional perceived flex. Not sure the bike could be ridden on road as a dual sport bike with the Warp 9 hubs.
