It's OK ,, , but it's not much good after 85mph ? I had a 77 1000 sportster, 90 was pushing it. It was the "era" . And only a 4 speed as well. Here in the Sonoran Desert 🏜️ 90 is slow lane Traffic
Absolutely beautiful bike. My understanding is that only about 1700 of these were made. It would have been nice to find out a little more about this one instead of just seeing it being ridden for 20 minutes.
Although, it is nice to see someone actually ride one. Every video on UA-cam of a xr just walks around them talking about how it has no miles. Lucky if they start it.
On a Pc, I'm not very smartphone savvy! The sound from the insta is like any other action camera, it suffers from wind noise over 20mph so the sound was captured from a helmet cam with external mic mounted near the exhaust and then overlaid onto this video. I still at the beginning of a steep learning curve when it comes to making bike vids :)
@@markmartin3539 I use helmet cam audio with the mic in my helmet too. I prefer editing the 360 to fixed window on my phone, then sync it on my PC software after
So I'm rebuilding an 83 XR1000 and I need help out there people!!!!! Would someone with an XR1000 pop off the two little nuts that hold the speedo cover on and get me a picture of the information on the back of the speedo? Or if anyone has the part number, please let me know?
Wonderfull sounding XR1000, thanks for taking us along on your ride
What a beauty and rarity!!! It's like candy for my ears. Thanks

Harleys in the late 1970s has 4 speed and not much over 85 mph. It was the era of the gas crunch...
Bike looks and sounds lovely Mark. Do you do your editing with the phone app, or on PC? :-)
