Way cool video. I just drove my 2006 XR650R from San Diego to Cabo San Lucas and back. The Big Red Pig is an awesome beast. Did you break off a mirror on the left side when you laid it down in the dunes? (I like the music.)
yo tube la xr650r del 2006 y es buena maquina pero el tanque acerbiss lo hace muy tosca en las curvas y peor en el desierto atte vitucho TRUJILLO -PERU
14 litros de gasolina para este tipo de recorridos jamas son suficientes... y para maniobrar en la arena el problema no esta en que tan grande sea el tanque... esta en LA VELOCIDAD, te lo digo yo que he manejado un klr 650 con el tanque de 20 l y un ktm 990 adventure de 22 l
good video!!! I normally ride a yz426f but am curious how the heavier xr650L handles in the soft dunes??? Have you experianced any motor problems, I'm looking for a bullet proof enduro???
I think the 650R is unbreakable. I've never ridden a 400 or 450 in the dunes so I can't compare weight. I think a 400/450 would be easier to handle, but my buddy was riding a KTM 950 with no problem...
I have an '03 XR650R and have ridden it all over the deserts of Southern California. My previous bike was an XR250R. The weight of the 650 is a disadvantage if you like jumping. It's an advantage if you like going real fast on desert trails (which is what it was designed for). The weight of the 650 helps you blast through obstacles that would normally deflect or bounce the light weight 250. I don't really prefer sand, but the 650 handles it with ease.
That's a XR650R not L. Astronomical difference. The rake on the 650 is greater then your 426 (My bro has a '02 426) giving it more stability then the YZ at high speed sand blasts and also has built in frame flex to absorb big hits like rocks and washouts. The motor is absolutely bullet proof and is less then half what a 426 is to rebuild in terms of cost. The XR was made for sand like wuhan8888 has already commented.
ok wtf on the music...
