XR650R Motard at Streets of Willow

Here's my motard running at Streets on 11/21/09. I mixed some footage from my friend Bryan's camera as well since we were running in the same group. Great day at the track! I decided to try classical music with the footage this time for something different.

@rudypiralla1966 I dubbed in the music because the camera picks up wind noise more than engine noise.

to convert your bike what exatly did you do? i am considering getting a supermoto but dont want to deal with constant repairs like the full tilt ktm/aprillia are to deal with...thanks in advance

My XR was made street legal before I purchased it. Baja Designs makes the kit with the lights, turn signals, etc to make it street legal. You'll have to check with the laws in your state to make sure that you can legalize yours. All I had to do was purchase the supermoto rims and tires and install them.

The engine noise of XR650R is not a "noise" but is a MUSIC....a celestial, beautyfull music

Best regards, happy weehlie for you and a lot of roads

My personal camera is the original VHoldR which records at 640x480. The video with the WRX was shot with my friend's GoPro Hero camera. I have ordered the new VHoldR 1080p which I expect to arrive later this week, so the quality of the video should be much improved in the future.

Yeh it looks like a tight track! great weather too!! my local track is Knockhill in Fife on the wet East coast of Scotland which is short, the sports bikes get me on the 2 straights but i take it back on the braking and twisty bits! i giggle to myself when i pass a dude on an R1 etc with the old XR :) i run pirelli SuperCorsas for track and Maxxis Goldspeeds for road ... have watched your other vids, i like the WRX one, is cool ... what camers do you use on the XR?? paul

I run 15/42 in motard trim and 15/45 when I put the dirt wheels back on. Since Streets is such a tight and bumpy track it really lends itself to motard domination. If I were next door at Willow Springs I'd run my 750 instead.

Cool vid, it just goes to show that you dont need 150+ horsepower to dominate a track day!!!! what gearing do you use? i use 14 front and 38 rear sprockets :)
